Trying to add my domain name to Microsoft Entra and getting this message So I guess at some time in the past someone at least started setting up but never actually used it or at least not that anyone will admit to.

So how do I gain control of the name so I can use it? I already did a tenant lookup so I do know the tenant ID but where do I go from there to locate the admin (who likely left the company years ago) of that tenant
