Find your Office 365 tenant ID

Find your Office 365 tenant ID

Your Office 365 tenant ID is a globally unique identifier (GUID) that is different than your tenant name or domain. On rare occasion, you might need this identifier, such as when configuring Windows group policy for OneDrive for Business.

If you do need to find your Office 365 tenant ID, it's pretty easy. Choose one of the following procedures.

Use the Azure AD portal   

Office 365 uses Azure AD to manage user accounts.

You can find your tenant ID in the Azure AD portal. You'll need to be an Azure AD administrator.
