Manage Azure Active Directory from Azure Portal

Q: I have Office 365, and I want to use the Microsoft Azure portal to view the Azure Active Directory implementation used by my Office 365 installation. However, the Azure portal says I don't have a subscription. What can I do?

A: If you want to use the Microsoft Azure portal to view your Azure Active Directory implementation for your Office 365 installation, the easiest method is to log in to office365.com with your account and navigate to the Microsoft Azure management page. The Azure portal will tell you that you don't have a subscription, at which point you can sign up for a free trial, which will allow you to log on and see your Azure Active Directory via the portal. You can also use features such as the Application Access Enhancements, which allows federation from your Azure Active Directory to particular services.
