Managing cloud-based applications, security settings, and user access in Microsoft Entra (formerly Azure Active Directory) often requires knowing your Tenant ID. Many admins struggle to locate it when integrating third-party apps, setting up API permissions, or troubleshooting identity-related issues. Without the Tenant ID, some configurations and authentication processes can be blocked, leading to unnecessary delays and confusion.
If you need to find your Microsoft Entra tenant ID quickly, here are the easiest methods to do so:
1. Find Tenant ID via Microsoft Entra Admin Center
2. Find Tenant ID via Azure Portal
3. Find Tenant ID Using PowerShell
You can use Azure PowerShell to retrieve the Tenant ID:
4. Find Tenant ID Using Azure CLI
You can also use Azure CLI to retrieve the Tenant ID:
Connect-AzAccount
Get-AzTenant
Look for the tenantId field in the output.
5. Find Tenant ID Using Microsoft 365 CLI
If you work with Microsoft 365 CLI, you can find the Tenant ID using:
m365 tenant id get
This command directly returns your Microsoft Entra Tenant ID.
Conclusion
Finding your Microsoft Entra Tenant ID is essential for managing identity and security settings within Microsoft’s ecosystem. Whether through the admin center, Azure portal, PowerShell, or CLI, you can quickly retrieve this information using the method that best suits your workflow.
