These steps need to be performed by a user that has the global administrator role inside Microsoft 365 admin center. The images a taken using the dark mode, the admin center might be displayed in white on your computer, this is not a problem.

  1. Go to the admin center at https://admin.microsoft.com.

  2. Depending on your settings, you need to click on Add a user inside the user management pane or below the greeting.

  3. In the Set up the basics pane, fill in the user information provided by WAY, and then select Next.

    First name: WAY Last name: Admin

    Username: way@your-company (your-company should be replaced by your company's name)

    Domain: way-admin @ your company's website (e.g. acme-corp.com)

    Password settings: select auto-generate password, require this user to change their password when they first sign in and send password in email upon completion

    Email the new password to the following recipients: admin-yourcompany@way.so (your-company should be replaced by your company's name)

  4. In the Assign product licenses pane, select Create user without product license and click Next.

  5. In the Optional settings pane, expand Roles by clicking on it.

  6. Make this user an admin by selecting Global Administrator as shown in this image:

    Click Next.

  7. Review your new user's settings, then select Finish adding, then Close.
