I joined the Microsoft 365 Developer Program but did not receive the E5 sandbox subscription. My account is being redirected to the profile page and shows ‘You don’t currently qualify.’ Please manually enable the sandbox for my profile.

Hi Cris,

Thank you for reaching out.

Based on my research, eligibility for the sandbox subscription is current limited and requires the following options:  

  • Active Visual Studio Professional or Enterprise subscription holders 
  • ISV Success Program Members 
  • AI Cloud Partner Program Participants 
  • Premier or Unified Support Plan Members 

As this is a user-to-user support forum, I can only offer guidance based on similar cases. I do not have access to your tenant or account. Therefore, I cannot enable the sandbox for your profile.

In addition, the following sign-in options are not supported: 

  • Phone numbers. 
  • Email accounts with the *.onmicrosoft.com domain. 

For more information, please refer to Welcome to the Microsoft 365 Developer Program | Microsoft Learn

If you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out. I'll be happy to help.

Thank you for your time and understanding.
