I recently joined the Microsoft 365 Developer Program, but I received a message stating:

"Thank you for joining. You don’t currently qualify for a Microsoft 365 Developer Program sandbox subscription."

I am a developer working on integrating Microsoft Teams with Azure Communication Services (ACS) and require an E5 sandbox subscription to proceed with development and testing.

Could you please review my account and provide guidance on how I can qualify for the E5 sandbox? If there are any additional steps or requirements, please let me know.

Looking forward to your support. Thank you for your time and assistance.

Best regards,

    With recent changes, Microsoft is no longer offering free M365 developer tenants. You need a Visual Studio license to qualify.
