Hello everyone,

I have setup Azure B2B identity provider for signup/registration of users. This is working fine where any user can register themselves and a contact record is created in dataverse as well as the user is created in azure AD as guest user. Now I have a list of user details(around 500 users) who needs to be registered in the system (both in contact table and in Azure AD) so that they can directly login to the portal without having to register.

Is there any way to achieve this by some sort of automation?

Thanks everyone for your support and valuable suggestions.

The answer is yes, but it is not out of the box and you have to build (code) it. The basics
Create (can import them) Contact in Dataverse
use the Graph API to create in Azure for each contact
Create an External Identity record in Dataverse for each of the Contacts. You will populate the external identity record with the GUID of the object you created in Azure (via the Graph API), and the details of the identity provider (url etc)
I can't remember all of these off the top of my head so may have missed one....on the Contact set the Security Stamp to a GUID (any guid will do), set User name to the azure GUID, set Login Enabled true.
If you are not inheriting off the Authenticated Users Web Role, then also assign an appropriate Web Role to the Contacts
