    Hi @Leon Deeken

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A! 

    You can use the Visual Studio ID to join the developer program from within the Visual Studio Gallery to get the full benefits as a Visual Studio subscriber. You can also link your Visual Studio subscription to your Microsoft 365 developer sandbox during the setup process.

    In the Gallery from Visial Studio, I don't see an option for the Developer Program. In the Developer Dashboard, the settings show that my GitHub account is linked. However, there's no option or way for me to link my Visual Studio account. I have a Visual Studio Professional MPN license.
