What other domain formats can I use?
When the login-as-admin fails because the user is not found, you might need to check whether you used the correct format for entering the credentials.
- Cloud Only Microsoft Entra ID Accounts
-
- UPN
- AzureAD\UPN
- AzureAD\USERNAME
- AzureAD\FirstNameLastName
- Hybrid Account (On-Prem AD synced to Microsoft Entra ID)
-
- UPN
- AzureAD\UPN
- AzureAD\USERNAME
- AzureAD\FirstNameLastName
- DOMAIN\Username
- MACHINENAME\Username
Note: The AzureAD part before the slash, will allow our system to locate the Admin user within Azure to elevate the session.
