Create a Microsoft Entra ID User

In GroupID portal, you can create mail-enabled and non mail-enabled users.

NOTE: In a Microsoft Entra ID based identity store, users can only be created as non mail-enabled. Create a mailbox as an alternative to a mail-enabled user.

NOTE: Pages and fields on the Create User wizard may vary from those discussed here, since the administrator can customize the wizard by adding or removing pages and fields.

What do you want to do?

Create a user in Microsoft Entra ID​

  1. In the GroupID portal, click the Create New button in the left pane and select User.

    The Create User wizard opens to the Account page.

  2. On the Account page, specify basic account info, such as the user's first name, last name, login ID and the UPN suffix.

  3. On the Password page, provide a password for the user account and set other password-specific options.

  4. Use the Directory Roles page to assign a role and role privileges to the user on the Microsoft Entra Admin Center portal.

  5. On the Summary page, review the settings and then click Finish to complete the wizard.

NOTE: If the GroupID administrator has specified the user creation action for review, your changes will not take effect until verified by an approver. See the Requests topic.
