Users, groups, and applications in Microsoft Entra ID

The User management section of Partner Center (under Account settings) lets you use Microsoft Entra ID to add users to your Partner Center account. Each user is assigned a role (or set of custom permissions) that defines their access to the account. You can also add groups of users and Microsoft Entra ID applications to grant them access to your Partner Center account.

After users have been added to the account, you can edit account details, change roles and permissions or remove users.

When adding users, you will need to specify their access to your Partner Center account by assigning them a role or set of custom permissions.

Keep in mind that all Partner Center users (including groups and Microsoft Entra ID applications) must have an active account in a Microsoft Entra ID tenant that is associated with your Partner Center account. User management is done in one tenant at a time; you must sign in with a Manager account for the tenant in which you want to add or edit users. Creating a new user in Partner Center will also create an account for that user in the Microsoft Entra ID tenant to which you are signed in, and making changes to a user's name in Partner Center will make the same changes in your organization's Microsoft Entra ID tenant.
