Guest user with Global admin role
I'm with Juan here. While you can technically add admin roles to guest users or even create mailboxes for them, I've never seen a statement from Microsoft that this is supported. In fact, the only place I've seen Guest admin access work is the (old) Office 365 Admin Center.
Taen keren I know, this thread is already old. We are currently struggling with the same topic. Did you find a way to add a Guest to Global Admin (or SP Admin) in order to use the Sharepoint admin center?
I had to change member type via powershell from Guest to Member. This workaround does the job, means the user can access the admin center. Nevertheless, it is an ugly solution. In addition, we do have another problem when accessing further admin centers. The invited admin always jumps into its own Tenant and we didn't find a way to change this behavior... so far.
AOEHApparently this scenario just work when you want to add a guest in Azure AD. Didn't find a solution for the Microsoft 365 admin center.
Yes, this solution only works to get proper permissions but... It looks to me as if the only multi tenant capable console is Azure Portal. We had to create a dedicated Admin for our partner. Very ugly solution but currently the only way to get what we want. Microsoft has to provide multi tenant support for all the consoles.
