Azure AD External Identities (Microsoft Entra External ID) uses the Monthly Active Users (MAU) billing model only when you link an Azure subscription to the Azure AD tenant. To enable MAU-based billing: Go to Microsoft Entra ID. Select External Identities. Configure Linked subscriptions. Associate an Azure subscription with the tenant. Once linked, billing for external users is based on the number of monthly active users (MAU) rather than per-user licensing. Why not the others? A. User flow ❌ Used for sign-up/sign-in experiences, not billing. B. Terms of use ❌ Used to require users to accept legal agreements. D. Access review ❌ Used to review and certify user access. ✅ Answer: C. a linked subscription
The correct answer is C. a linked subscription. Azure AD External Identities pricing is based on monthly active users (MAU) when your tenant is linked to a subscription. This means that you will only be charged for the number of users who actively use Azure AD External Identities in a given month.
To ensure that Azure AD External Identities pricing is based on monthly active users (MAU), you should configure: C. a linked subscription You need to link your Azure AD External Identities to a billing subscription that supports monthly active users (MAU) billing. This allows you to pay based on the number of unique users who access your applications or services each month. Options A (a user flow), B (the terms of use), and D (an access review) are not related to configuring billing for Azure AD External Identities based on MAU.
