Hello. I have the following problem with Azure AD. I received invitation to join Azure AD. I was added as guest user as per https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/topics/azure-active-directory.html. but when I accept invitation it asks me to create business account instead of just add me there using my personal account.

But when I try to redeem same invitation from other AD it successfully adds me using my personal account and new AD is listed on Azure Portal when I login using my personal account.

What I or AD admin should do to resolve the problem so I can be added using my personal account?

Best regards,
Stepan

    To add to this, I noticed that if you try to just add a user to the devops org as a basic user, it will still keep trying to force you to create an org account. However, when you add the user as a federated user, it will then create the microsoft account in AAD
