Admin roles
22 TopicsAdmin acces
As an organization we have an office 365 account, but we do not know who the admin/manager is. The suspicion is that it is someone who left the organization a while ago, which is why we do not have an active email address and/or password for those accounts. We cannot log in to the admin center because of this. Does anyone have a solution on how we can regain access to our office management? Telephone contact with MS has not helped so far because we do not know who the admin is and they keep asking for it or saying that we have to ask our admin.75Views0likes1CommentLimiting admins to specific domains and licenses quantities
Hi There, I have a tenant with only one domain at the moment which is of the main organization. I'm planning three more domains and each of these additional domains belong to a company who are subsidiaries of the main company. I am aware adding domains won't be an issue but however my question is as below; Can I create custom admins with each of them tied/limited managing, creating and updating users specific to the given domain(s) including the limiting of licenses (e.g.: admin B can only create up to 50 users under domain B). So that, as a main admin, I can oversee and control the domains, licenses and users.Solved292Views0likes2CommentsUnable to Remove-SPOUser from personal sharepoints properly
Hello, I had to add a global administrator account literally on every single personal sharepoint, as Site Collection Administrators, to delete a user from each personal sharepoint, with a certain email but associated with a old sharepoint ID (the user was re-added to our Office 365 and he had issues when other were sharing links from personal sharepoint to him, access denied even with the right email, because he have now other sharepoint ID). Now I want to remove that global administrator account from every personal sharepoint (using: Remove-SPOUser) , using a global administrator account A to remove the global administrator account B that I've added everywhere (Account B was added with Account A login with: Set-SPOUser)(otherwise will get: Remove-SPOUser : A user may not remove his or her own account from a site collection.), but cannot do that because, seems like I need to use an account that is already a Site Collection Administrator, to perform this action, so I am unable to leave just the Primary Site Collection Administrator (the own user). Over web sharepoint admin center, I can remove and add everyone using Account A, even remove Account A from Site Collection Administrators, it simply doesn't work in the same way when connected over Connect-SPOService. Please advise how can I remove that Account B, and leave only the Primary Site Collection Administrator as Site Collection Administrator?549Views0likes1CommentPartner Center MPN ID

Hi Tech Friends, This is for one of our customer/client. Our customer is having on-premises exchange 2016 and they have/had one office365 tenant created by one CSP service provider/reseller for Office 365 for 2 licenses. The reseller who created Office365 tenant (@dxxxxxb.com) had kept all the access to themselves and never gave any username password access to the client as they said it's a managed services. Later on some disputes happened between client and reseller and reseller deactivated their licenses and also stopped any communication with client. Now the client who is rightful owner of the domain and thankfully having access to Domain DNS would like to purchase new Microsoft 365 Business Premium licenses while migrating exchange users to Office365 and also reactivate old licenses but unfortunately they don't have access of tenant Admin account and even don't have any idea which email ID reseller had used while creating original tenant. As per my knowledge for the same domain (@dxxxxxb.com) it's not possible to have multiple tenant ID or administrators, so is there any way where Microsoft can remove previous Admin account and help to activate tenant for the same domain with new admin account? Or is it possible to have multiple tenants admin account for the same domain and then remove old admin from Admin panel of Office365? I need help very urgently as I need to setup this weekend for migration. Thanks in advance.2.5KViews0likes4CommentsHow to change user passwords in bulk - without force to change
Hello everyone, I'm in the process of updating the passwords for multiple users, and I'd like to set specific passwords of my choice. Additionally, I want to ensure that these accounts won't prompt users to change their passwords upon their first login. I'd greatly appreciate your assistance, as the scripts I previously used are no longer effective.Solved18KViews0likes3Comments
