Manage Your Subscription Plan
Complete your subscription activation after purchasing through Microsoft Marketplace, then manage your plan throughout its lifecycle.
Prerequisites
- A Build a Doc subscription purchased through Microsoft AppSource or Azure Marketplace
- Access to your organisation’s Microsoft account (the account used for purchase)
- Permission to sign in using Microsoft Entra ID (Azure Active Directory)
Activating Your Subscription
Step 1: Complete Marketplace Purchase
AppSource
- After purchasing from Microsoft AppSource, you will receive a subscription confirmation email from Microsoft
- Click the “Configure Account” button or link in the email
- You will be redirected to the Build a Doc portal
Azure Marketplace
- Complete your subscription through Azure Marketplace
- Click the “Configure Account now” button
- You will be redirected to the Build a Doc portal
Step 2: Verify Redirect and Sign In
The marketplace redirects you to the Build a Doc /purchase page with a resolve token in the URL.
Verify the token is present in the URL — the portal uses this token to automatically retrieve your subscription details through the Azure MarketplaceFulfillment API.
Sign in with Microsoft
- You may be prompted to sign in
- Use the same Microsoft account that made the Marketplace purchase
- Follow the authentication prompts
- Once authenticated, the portal loads your subscription record
Step 3: Review and Activate
The portal displays your subscription details:
- Subscription name and plan
- Billing frequency (monthly/annual)
- Renewal and cancellation options
- Start date and current status
Verify these details, then click “Activate” to finalise activation.
Once activated:
- Your subscription is immediately active
- Billing begins through Microsoft
- The activating user is assigned the Admin role by default
Step 4: Access Your Portal Dashboard
You now have full access to the Build a Doc customer portal, where you can manage your subscription and team access.
