In the past, when working with partner organisations where you were invited to access shared resources or applications, in order to get your access removed/revoked you would need to contact their Global Admin and ask them to remove you. That was not an easy task!

Now, Microsoft released a Azure B2B update which will allow you to remove yourself from the partner organisation AD tenant

When a user leaves an organization, the user account is “soft deleted” in the directory.

By default, the user object moves to the Deleted users area in Azure AD but is not permanently deleted for 30 days. This soft deletion enables the administrator to restore the user account (including groups and permissions), if the user makes a request to restore the account within the 30-day period.

If you permanently delete a user, this action is irrevocable.

These highly-requested capabilities simplify and modernize your collaboration. They also empower your partner users and help you with your GDPR obligations.
