AADSTS50058: A silent sign-in request was sent but no user is signed in I can not log into azure

AADSTS50058: A silent sign-in request was sent but no user is signed in. The cookies used to represent the user's session were not sent in the request to Azure AD. This can happen if the user is using Internet Explorer or Edge, and the web app sending the silent sign-in request is in different IE security zone than the Azure AD endpoint

I keep getting a dialog and can not create a ticket.

    Hey there, Steve

    Thanks for the additional information. Please can you try going straight to the admin portal in an InPrivate browsing window using the following link: https://portal.azure.com/#view/Microsoft_Azure_GTM/ModernBillingMenuBlade/~/Overview

    Then sign in with your Microsoft account. Does it go straight into the portal?

    I use a personal account to access the Azure portal and always navigate to the portal directly. I think what may be happening is when you have signed into your personal account on the Microsoft account overview page, then navigated straight to the Azure portal, the Auth token is getting lost somewhere so the service can't read the session or it is invalid (I could be wrong with this).

    When looking at the Azure AADSTS error codes - AADSTS50058, it says the following

    UserInformationNotProvided - Session information isn't sufficient for single-sign-on. This means that a user isn't signed in. This is a common error that's expected when a user is unauthenticated and hasn't yet signed in. If this error is encountered in an SSO context where the user has previously signed in, this means that the SSO session was either not found or invalid. This error might be returned to the application if prompt=none is specified.

    This is what is making me think it is something to do with the session cookie and how the site isn't able to pickup your Auth token

    Please let me know how this works out.

    Thanks,
    Nathan

    The error indicates that Azure AD cannot use existing cookies to complete a silent sign-in, often due to browser cookies, security zones, or multiple accounts.

    Try these steps in order:

    1. Clear browser cookies and cache
      • In Microsoft Edge:
        • Open SettingsPrivacy and Services → under Clear browsing data, select Choose what to clear.
        • Select Browsing history, Download history, Cookies, and Cached images and files, then select Delete.
      • In Chrome:
        • Open SettingsPrivacy and SecurityClear browsing data and clear cookies and cache.
    2. Use a private browsing session
      • In Edge: open a New InPrivate window from the menu and then browse to the Azure portal and sign in.
      • In Chrome: use Incognito mode.
      • In Safari: use New Private Window.
    3. Sign out of all Microsoft accounts and sign in again
      • Sign out from all Microsoft/Entra accounts in the browser.
      • Close all browser windows.
      • Reopen the browser, then go directly to the Azure portal and sign in with the intended account.
    4. Check for multiple accounts automatically used by the browser
      • If the browser is automatically signing in as a different user, clearing cookies and using InPrivate/Incognito usually forces a fresh sign-in with the correct account.
    5. If using Internet Explorer or Edge with security zones configured
      • Ensure that the Azure AD endpoint login.microsoftonline.com and the app/portal domains are in the same security zone, or remove them from Trusted sites so cookies can be shared correctly.
    6. If still unable to access Azure to create a ticket
      • Use a different browser (for example, Chrome if currently using Edge) after clearing cookies.
      • If sign-in still fails and access to the portal is not possible, use the public support channel to create a support request.

    These steps address the cookie/session issues and multi-account behavior that commonly cause AADSTS50058 and prevent sign-in to Azure.
