Can Azure AD have multiple tenants?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 12:34 pm

Azure AD can have multiple tenants. Azure AD can be used by any organization to manage identities and access rights for their employees. Azure AD allows organizations to centralize authentication and authorization for their users. This can be useful if an organization has multiple locations or companies that need to access the same resources.

PRO TIP: No, Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) cannot have multiple tenants. If you try to create a second Azure AD tenant for an Azure subscription, you’ll receive the following error message: “A tenant with the same name already exists in this subscription.”

Azure AD also provides single sign-on for resources such as Office 365, Dynamics 365, and other cloud-based applications. This means that users can access these applications without having to remember multiple usernames and passwords. Azure AD allows organizations to control who can access their resources and how they are accessed.
