There are to kinds of portals – the admin portals and end user portals. In this post I will cover the admin portals.

I will only look at portals related to the new Azure Portal – at some point every thing regarding EM+S will be migrated into the new Azure Portal.

 

First a look at the admin portals:

There is https://portal.azure.com

When you login you are getting a default dashboard and you have to search for what service you need to manage

It is highly recommended to create a custom dashboard with titles of the every day work you are doing – and some blades so you are getting a easy overview of your EM+S environment.

You can use the Share function t

Portal_Azure_com

There is https://aad.portal.azure.com

This is a portal where all your Azure AD components are located with out all other services in Azure.

Is it also providing information about what your AzureAD license level – In my case it is AzureAD P2.

Aad_portal_azure_com

The services there is access to in this portal is;

AzureAD P1

  • Azure Active Directory
  • Users and groups
  • Enterprise applications
  • App registrations
  • Azure AD Connect Health
  • Azure AD Cloud App Discovery

AzureAD P2

  • Azure AD Privileged Identity Management
  • Azure AD Identity Protection

There is https://intuneeducation.portal.azure.com

This is the new Intune for Education portal – that is a portal that you have access to if you have EM+S license or Intune for Education licens.

This portal is designed so that every day task is made easy for non technical admins to use.

Intuneeducation_Portal_Microsoft_com

Tips and tricks for the Azure Portal

If you press CTRL + ALT + D you can see the load time for every title (This is only working for portal.azure.com)

By pressing the Settings Icon – it is possible to change the settings of the Azure Portal

e.g disable the Toast Notification or Language settings

 

I will keep this post updated if I find more portals related to EM+S
