Set-up subscription to use Azure B2C

I followed the this tutorial to set up Azure B2C on my MSDN subscription. But it failed with the error:

To resolve this, I needed to add the namespace Microsoft.AzureActiveDirectory to my subscription. This article documents the steps I took.

• Use the Azure Cloud Powershell terminal or Powershell on your PC
• Ensure you have the Azure CLI tools installed on your PC if you will use the local Powershell terminal
• Log into you azure account:

az login

• Specify the subscription you want to work on. Get a list of your subscriptions:

az account list

• Once you have identified your required subscription, you will need to set it e.g. if your subscription name is “Company-Production”:

az account set --subscription "Company-Production"

• Now, register the required namespace provider:

az provider register --namespace Microsoft.AzureActiveDirectory

Now you will be able to continue using this tutorial to create an Azure B2C tenant.
