Why do we need another ID?

Microsoft’s Entra ID isn’t new; you’ve been using it anytime you log into Microsoft 365 applications, such as Outlook Web Access, OneDrive, or Microsoft Teams. We are now beginning to leverage its use for other applications, starting with the University Guest Account System. More applications will be changed over as we retire the NetID login.

Why can't I use my UR first.last or username@department.rochester.edu alias?

Entra accounts are synced from both the UR and URMC Active Directories.

For UR customers, the Entra username is always based on the Active Directory account name.  The email address is unrelated to the Entra username.

For URMC customers, the Entra username is the URMC email address.  The Active Directory username is unrelated to the Entra username.

For example:
