Why do I need a second MS-Account?

Posted on by

Hello all,

 

sorry, I am not a native speaker. I hope, I can adress my problem as well.

I tried to create my first flow. Therefore I logged in into my Office Outlook Account. Done! Then I have to log in to my Ondrive for Business Account. But it does not accept my E-Mailadress and I wonder why. We use Office 365 in our company. Due to that I thougth I have a MS-account and I can log in to Outlook and onedrive. But when I try to log into the Ondrive for business, it tells me, that this account does not exist? 

Than it proposes me to create a new account. 

So my queation ist: why do I need two accounts, one for outlook and another one for onedrive to use flow? Am I doing something wrong? 

 

I Hope, you understand my problem an anyone can help me!

 

Thank you so much!

Nicola

    Thank you for your answer. I think that might be the problem. I asked our support to check my OneDrive licences. As soon as I have a feedback, I will try to login again. Whish me luck 🙂

    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    I don't have the issue that you mentioned and the Office 365 account could sign in Ondrive for business.

     

    I afraid that you have a confuse between the Onedrive for business connector and the Onedrive connector, and Onedrive connector should require for a personal email address,if you sign in the Onedrive with the Office 365 account it will tells you that this account does not exist.

     

    Best regards,

    Alice
