Who this is for: Tenant administrators who set and enforce product settings across every organization in their tenant.
Use this page to set tenant-wide defaults for product behavior, lock settings so organizations can’t change them, and preview how a change would affect each organization. The Config page works the same way at the tenant and organization levels, with the same list of settings. See How Config works for the levels model, locks, groups, comparing across levels, and looking up one person’s settings, and Available settings for what each setting does. This page covers only what is specific to the tenant level.

What is specific to the tenant level

Previewing impact across organizations. After you change a setting here, a Preview impact button appears next to Save changes. It shows every organization with its current effective value and what it would become after your change. See Previewing impact. This button does not appear at the organization level. Two settings that only tenant administrators can change. Permit organizations to manage their own seat tiers and Compliance API are always read-only for organization owners, regardless of whether they are locked. Group priority order. You set the priority order between directory groups on the Identity and access page by dragging the groups into the order you want. Organization owners see this order for reference but cannot change it. See When someone belongs to more than one group. Managing any organization’s config. As a tenant administrator you can open any organization’s Config page and act on that organization’s behalf, using the scope bar above the settings list. Organization owners see only their own organization. Resetting a tenant setting removes only the tenant’s value. Organization values are unaffected and remain in effect once your value is gone.
