You need to ensure that the vendor can authenticate to the tenant by using [email protected].
What should you do?

A. From Windows PowerShell, run the New-AzureADUser cmdlet and specify the ""UserPrincipalName [email protected] parameter.
B. From the Azure portal, add a custom domain name, create a new Azure AD user, and then specify [email protected] as the username.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A 🗳️
UserPrincipalName - contains the UserPrincipalName (UPN) of this user. The UPN is what the user will use when they sign in into Azure AD. The common structure is @, so for Abby Brown in Contoso.com, the UPN would be [email protected]
Example:
To create the user, call the New-AzureADUser cmdlet with the parameter values: powershell New-AzureADUser -AccountEnabled $True -DisplayName "Abby Brown" -PasswordProfile $PasswordProfile -MailNickName "AbbyB" -
UserPrincipalName "[email protected]"

I think, the right answer is D. We should use Azure portal, add a new guest user, and then specify [email protected] as the email address. The New-AzureADUser cmdlet creates a new user not a new guest user. The New-AzureADMSInvitation cmdlet is used to invite a new external user to your directory, but the cmdlet uses the -InvitedUserEmailAddress parameter instead of -UserPrincipalName.
