Azure SSL certificate shows Guest User Error - azure

I have purchased an SSL cert for my site and the cert has three steps you need to do in order to have it fully configured. The first step is "Key Vault Status" which I then click on and it shows the following error:
You do not have permission to get the service prinicipal information needed to assign a Key Vault to your certificate. Please login with an account which is either the owner of the subscription or an admin of the Active Directory to configure Key Vault settings.
This is very confusing because I am the owner of this subscription and I also went and created a new Key Vault just in case it was due to not having one created in the first place. In addition I checked the Access Control for this cert and I am also listed as Owner.
Any help is appreciated.

Ok, so I finally got to the bottom of it - I'll outline the story here as this was the solution but may not work for everyone.
When I first created my Azure account I did so under email address 1
A few years later I had migrated most of my email to email address 2. To get status updates and other things I transferred the subscription to email address 2.
Every other service has worked fine accept for this SSL issue as well as not being able to buy a support plan (it popped open an email app to send to email address 1)
In speaking with the AzureSupport twitter account they agreed that it was strange and arranged for a one time ticket for support.
The support agent asked me to check my Access Policies for the Key Vault I had created. This showed that email 1 is indeed a user in the Azure Active Direction and they mentioned that I'd need to have the admin add it. Since I had noticed the irregularities with email address 1 showing up in the URL and in the email for adding support I logged into Azure using email address 1 and went to Azure Active Directory->Users under that account.
I then selected the guest account, selected Directory Role, and added a new role of Application Administrator. Now all of it is working as expected!

My subscription was attached to employer Active Directory and I can't change my role in it.
I solve this problem by creating my own Active Directory and by moving subscription to this AD.

Issue with root owner of Azure Account (somehow got modified and I don't have access). How can I clean-up?

I used personal e-mail as “Microsoft Identity” to sign-up for Azure Free Trial. My expectation is my e-mail ID is the root login for my account and associated identity is the root owner, and I think that was the case initially. Later, I deployed an Azure AD Tenant with a different name, turns out a bizarre pseudo-e-mail ID (UPN) became root owner of my parent account which I don’t have access for. Now I can’t delete subscriptions or the unwanted UPN. How can I reset my account to start from clean slate? One way is to use a different e-mail ID and get started with new account. I am wondering if some one can provide steps to perform clean-up and restart with same old e-mail ID / identity as root owner. Azure support plans start # $29.00/month and I am trying to avoid that.
Another symptom, I can't cancel supscription. It asks me to use contact owner, and that happens to be that bizarre very long email looking UPN which I can't use for login as those credentials aren't there.
You should contact Azure Support Team and raise a subscription ticket which is free for further help.
They can help you to manage your subscription owner and credit card / billing information from the backend.

Connecting Blazor Server App to Azure AD - Insufficient Permissions

I am trying to create a new Blazor server app and configure it to use a new Azure Active Directory that I recently created. I have found a couple tutorials online showing how to do this, including one from Microsoft, but I keep encountering an error that says "The user account doesn't have the required permissions to access the domain."
I read online that I needed to verify that my user account is assigned to the Global Administrator role, which I did and it is. I have tried to create 3 different active directories in Azure to see if it was a fluke, but I have received the same error message each time.
Any help that you are able to provide would be greatly appreciated.
Make sure that you have signed in to Visual Studio with an admin account of the domain (here it should be "thomasagarza#yahoo.com").
After adding the account, you can apply filter for it (select the domain it is an member in). Make sure you have added it as the guest of that domain and assign Global Admin role to it.
Then all the related domains will be listed when you create a new project with Work or School Accounts Authentication. Select the domain which "thomasagarza#yahoo.com" is the admin in and click on OK. Generally you won't be required to enter your credential again in this step.
Please note if you have a custom domain for your AAD tenant and have made it primary, the domain listed here will be the custom domain name. In this case, if you manually set the domain as the format "***.onmicrosoft.com", you will get the error you are facing.

Azure add user to subscription

I am almost new to Azure. My client had created an Azure account and sent invitation to me. I had accepted her invitation to join her Azure portal. However when I log in with my username, it shows me "No subscription". My client is saying she has given me every access rights, but I am not able to do anything there. Even I am not sure if I have really joined her Azure portal.
Here is the image if when I tried to access Free Services.
For what i understand is that the current directory you are working in doesn't have the rights that you are expecting. And your client has added you to another subscription with all the required rights. All you need to do is switch your directory to the one which has the subscription provided by your client.
Just Click on your profile avatar(or name) on the top right of the portal.
Select the option Switch Directory form the pop-up.
And choose your concerned directory + Subscription.

Cannot reset the work account's password because "password reset isn't properly set up for your organization."

I'm in a bind with Azure login account. I've forgotten my password for my account that I use for a client's DevOps. It wasn't until I ended up created another account today to troubleshoot the problem that I might understand the issue, but still can't fix it.
About a year ago, my client added me as a Guest in their Active Directory. I did not have an active directory myself. I got the notice from Microsoft in an invite email to get started, which created an account to get access to their Azure Portal and DevOps. I've been logged in for a year, but was trying test a feature which required me to login to DevOps during the process. I tried what I thought was my password, but that didn't work. No problem, I'll just click on the reset password feature. That ended up informing me that "password reset isn't properly set up for your organization." Knowing who setup my account up, I ask them to reset my password. The response was we do not have control to reset your password because you're a guest.
Through several discussions, and seeing what was available to them, and how a Guest was set up, it was suggested to setup an account within Microsoft for the email. I did that, and when I went back to try and login to their portal, I was presented with two options after I entered my email address. There was a work account and a personal account. Both with the same email address. The work account indicated it was created by "your IT department". Which we did not create this, it was a result of the client adding us as a guest, then finishing the process to gain access. So I can only assume, either an active directory was created for my domain, or I was added to a generic active directory.
In either case, I still can't change the password for the work account, and researching has not helped, as it keeps resetting my personal account.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve this issue?
Here is what I'm currently seeing.
Thank you,
Marc
You don't have an AAD tenant. So I assume that your account is an Microsoft personal account.
Although you are added as the guest user in your client's tenant, the password management is not handled by that tenant. It is still handled by Microsoft personal account.
You can reset your password here: click on Sign In, enter your account and click on Forgot password?.

Azure Subscription URL Contains Other Admin's Email Address?

I have two businesses and each has an Azure subscription. I'm an admin for each using my same MS email account.
Bill is only involved in one of the subscriptions, but when I log into my subscription "Local Happenings" (to which Bill should have no access) I still see his email address in the URL.
This picture shows it better:
https://db.tt/kvuccFOO
I'm wondering why this is, and if it could potentially be a problem.
My fear is that if he decides to cancel his business's account, then he will cancel mine or something.
I tried again to create a new subscription to verify I wasn't already logged into his subscription (I used a different browser), but it still shows his email address in the URL.
Anyone have any ideas?
UPDATE 1:
https://db.tt/QHJrfIno
I see that my subscription is under his "default directory". I never selected this when creating my subscription. How do I change this, and is it the culprit?
What shows under the "Active Directory" tab in the management portal for each Subscription? When you say "MS email account" is that an old hotmail-type account or one registered via Office 365 or Azure?
The fact that the account showing in the URL has #XXX.onmicrosoft.com address suggests there is a link back to an Azure Active Directory (AAD) instance. If this is shared between the subscriptions (potentially as a login from it was used to create on of the subscriptions) then this would be the cause.
You need to make sure a non-AAD account is an admin on the subscription so that removal of an associated Azure AD instance will not orphan the subscription.
