How to get the azure account tenant Id?

My question is: Is it possible to get the azure active directory tenant id without using powershell command?

I found this two blogs and with this help, I'm already able to get the tenant ID and subscriptions ID from powershell. Is it the only way to retrieve the tenant?

A number of contributors already mentioned going to Azure Portal, opening the Active Directory page, and finding it there. However, some folks work for organizations that don't allow them to view the Active Directory page.

Another way to quickly find the Tenant Id in Azure Portal is to click on your account icon in the upper right corner of the Azure Portal

Select "Switch Directories" from the Account drop-down

You'll see a table with one or more Directories listed and showing their "Directory Id". Directory Id is the same thing as Tenant Id.

Step2: In the overview page of Azure Active Directory,find the tenant ID.

Using Azure CLI:

Use one of the commands az login, az account list, or az account tenant list. Find the TenantId property for each of subscriptions in the output from each command.

Using Powershell

Use the below command in powershell cmdlet.

This answer was provided on Microsoft's website, last updated on 3/21/2018:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/resource-group-create-service-principal-portal

In short, here are the screenshots from the walkthrough:

Select Azure Active Directory.

To get the tenant ID, select Properties for your Azure AD tenant.

Copy the Directory ID. This value is your tenant ID.

Hope this helps.

The one working for me is this (after az login):

 az account show |grep tenantId | awk {'print $2'} |tr -d '[:punct:]'

Time changes everything. I was looking to do the same recently and came up with this:

Note

added 02/17/2021

Stable Portal Page thanks Palec

added 12/18/2017

As indicated by shadowbq, the DirectoryId and TenantId both equate to the GUID representing the ActiveDirectory Tenant. Depending on context, either term may be used by Microsoft documentation and products, which can be confusing.

Assumptions

You have access to the Azure Portal

Solution

The tenant ID is tied to ActiveDirectoy in Azure

Navigate to Dashboard
Navigate to ActiveDirectory
Navigate to Manage / Properties
Copy the "Directory ID"

If you have installed Azure CLI 2.0 in your machine, you should be able to get the list of subscription that you belong to with the following command,

az login

if you want to see as a table output you could just use

az account get-access-token --query tenant --output tsv

or you could use the Rest API

As of now (06/07/2018), an easy approach would be running az account show in the Azure Cloud Shell (requires a Storage Account) in the Azure Portal.

--- Command ---

az account show

--- Command Output ---

{
  "environmentName": "AzureCloud",
  "id": "{Subscription Id (GUID)}",
  "isDefault": true,
  "name": "{Subscription Name}",
  "state": "Enabled",
  "tenantId": "{Tenant Id (GUID)}",
  "user": {
    "cloudShellID": true,
    "name": "{User email}",
    "type": "user"
  }
}

Find more details on Azure Cloud Shell at Overview of Azure Cloud Shell | Microsoft Docs.

My team really got sick of trying to find the tenant ID for our O365 and Azure projects. The devs, the support team, the sales team, everyone needs it at some point and never remembers how to do it.

So we've built this small site in the same vein as whatismyip.com. Hope you find it useful!

For AAD-B2C it is fairly simple. From Azure Portal with a B2C directory associated, go to your B2C directory (I added the "Azure AD B2C" to my portal's left menu). In the B2C directory click on "User flows (policies) directory menu item. In the policies pane click on one of your policies you previously added to select it. It should open a pane for the policy. Click "Properties". In the next pane is a section, "Token compatibility settings" which has a property "Issuer". Your AAD-B2C tenant GUID is contained in the URL.

In the Azure CLI (I use GNU/Linux):

$ azure login  # add "-e AzureChinaCloud" if you're using Azure China

This will ask you to login via https://aka.ms/devicelogin or https://aka.ms/deviceloginchina

$ azure account show
info:    Executing command account show
data:    Name                        : BizSpark Plus
data:    ID                          : aZZZZZZZ-YYYY-HHHH-GGGG-abcdef569123
data:    State                       : Enabled
data:    Tenant ID                   : 0XXXXXXX-YYYY-HHHH-GGGG-123456789123
data:    Is Default                  : true
data:    Environment                 : AzureCloud
data:    Has Certificate             : No
data:    Has Access Token            : Yes
data:    User name                   : [email protected]
data:    
info:    account show command OK

or simply:

azure account show --json | jq -r '.[0].tenantId'

or the new az:

az account show --subscription a... | jq -r '.tenantId'
az account list | jq -r '.[].tenantId'

I hope it helps

Just to add a new method to an old (but still relevant question). In the new portal, clicking the help icon from any screen and selecting 'Show Diagnostics' will show you a JSON document containing all your tenant information including TenantId, Tenant Name, and much, much more useful information

According to Microsoft:

Find your tenantID: Your tenantId can be discovered by opening the following metadata.xml document: https://login.microsoft.com/GraphDir1.onmicrosoft.com/FederationMetadata/2007-06/FederationMetadata.xml - replace "graphDir1.onMicrosoft.com", with your tenant's domain value (any domain that is owned by the tenant will work). The tenantId is a guid, that is part of the sts URL, returned in the first xml node's sts url ("EntityDescriptor"): e.g. "https://sts.windows.net/".

You can run a simple curl call to get the tenant id of an azure subscription without any authentication.

make a curl call to :

https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/{subscription-id}?api-version=2015-01-01

The request fails but you will be able to get the tenant id from the response header. The tenant id is present in line followed by "WWW-Authenticate: Bearer authorization_uri="https://login.windows.net/"

you can use curl -v to show the response header.

From Java:

public static String GetSubscriptionTenantId (String subscriptionId) throws ClientProtocolException, IOException
{
    String tenantId = null;
    String url = "https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/" + subscriptionId + "?api-version=2016-01-01";

    HttpClient client = HttpClientBuilder.create().build();
    HttpGet request = new HttpGet(url);
    HttpResponse response = client.execute(request);

    Header[] headers = response.getAllHeaders();
    for (Header header : headers)
    {
        if (header.getName().equals("WWW-Authenticate"))
        {
            // split by '"' to get the URL, split the URL by '/' to get the ID
            tenantId = header.getValue().split("\"")[1].split("/")[3];
        }
    }

    return tenantId;
}

The tenant id is also present in the management console URL when you browse to the given Active Directory instance, e.g.,

https://manage.windowsazure.com/<morestuffhere>/ActiveDirectoryExtension/Directory/BD848865-BE84-4134-91C6-B415927B3AB1

Go to https://login.windows.net/YOURDIRECTORYNAME.onmicrosoft.com/.well-known/openid-configuration and you'll see a bunch of URLs containing your tenant ID.
