Microsoft Entra Verified ID developer information

  • Artikkeli

Note

The requirement of a Microsoft Entra ID P2 license was removed in early May 2001. The Microsoft Entra ID Free tier is now supported.

Create a Microsoft Entra tenant for development

With a free Microsoft Entra account, you can onboard the verifiable credential service and test issuing and verifying verifiable credentials. Create a free account in either of two ways:

If you decide to sign up for the free Microsoft 365 developer program, you need to follow a few easy steps:

  1. On the Join the free Microsoft 365 Developer Program page, select Join now.

  2. Sign in with a new Microsoft account or use an existing (work) account.

  3. On the sign-up page, select your region, enter a company name, and accept the terms and conditions of the program.

  4. Select Next.

  5. Select Set up subscription. Specify the region where you want to create your new tenant, create a username, domain, and enter a password. This creates a new tenant and the first administrator of the tenant.

  6. Enter the security information needed to protect the administrator account of your new tenant. This sets up multifactor authentication for the account.

At this point, you've created a tenant with 25 E5 user licenses. The E5 licenses include Microsoft Entra ID P2 licenses. Optionally, you can add sample data packs with users, groups, mail, and SharePoint to help you test in your development environment. For the verifiable credential issuing service, they're not required.
