Creating users in Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) involves several steps. Here's a general overview of the process:
1. Sign in to Azure Portal: Go to the Azure Portal (https://portal.azure.com/) and sign in with your Azure account credentials.
2. Navigate to Azure Active Directory: In the Azure Portal, locate and select "Azure Active Directory" from the left-hand menu. This will take you to the Azure AD dashboard.
3. Access the Users Section: Within the Azure AD dashboard, select "Users" from the left-hand menu. This will display a list of existing users in your directory.
4. Add a New User: To create a new user, click on the "+ New user" button at the top of the users list.
5. Enter User Details: In the "User" pane that appears, fill in the required details for the new user. This typically includes fields such as:
- User name: The unique identifier for the user.
- Name: The user's full name.
- First name and Last name.
- Password: Set a temporary or initial password for the user. You can choose to require the user to change their password on first sign-in.
- User type: Choose between "New user in your organization" or "User with an existing Microsoft account."
6. Assign User Roles (Optional): You can assign roles to the user to define their permissions within Azure AD or specific Azure resources. This includes roles like Global administrator, User administrator, Application administrator, etc.
7. Assign Licenses (Optional): If your organization uses Azure AD Premium features or other Microsoft services, you may need to assign licenses to the user to grant access to those services.
8. Review and Create: Once you have entered all the necessary information, review the details to ensure accuracy, and then click on the "Create" button to create the new user.
9. Confirmation: After successfully creating the user, you will see a confirmation message indicating that the user has been created. You can then proceed to manage additional settings or perform other tasks as needed.
10. Notify User: Finally, inform the user of their account details and provide instructions for accessing Azure resources or signing in to services, if necessary.
Following these steps will allow you to create new users in Azure Active Directory and manage their access to Azure resources and services effectively.
