A city project lead needs to invite a vendor architect into the municipal Microsoft Entra tenant so the vendor can collaborate without becoming a full city employee. Which identity concept does that describe?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
External identities are the "visitor badge" for people who are not on the city payroll. The vendor keeps their own home identity but gets invited as a guest. That is collaboration without inventing a fake full employee account.
Full Explanation
Microsoft Entra external identities support B2B guest collaboration so partners can access resources you choose without being hired as employees. That is identity-scoped collaboration, not public anonymous storage, Availability Zones, or pricing SKUs. At AZ-900 depth, recognize the purpose: invite outside users securely into the tenant.
