  2. Navigate to Settings (https://admin.insiders.easylife365.cloud/collab/settings).
  3. In the Guest section, select the checkbox for Enable Guest Account Management.
  4. Additionally, in the Guest section, select the checkbox for Enable engine scans.

Verifying Guest Invite Settings in Entra ID

To invite guest accounts within your tenant, ensure that the guest invite settings in Entra ID allow Only users assigned to specific admin roles can invite guest users. While you can use less restrictive settings, the most restrictive option prohibits anyone from inviting guest users.

To verify the guest invite settings:

  1. Visit the Entra ID Portal.
  2. Navigate to Users -> All Users -> User settings -> Manage external collaboration settings.
  3. Under Guest invite settings, confirm that the most restrictive option is not selected.
