Active Directory Plans Pricing
Microsoft Entra ID (the cloud successor to Azure AD / on-prem Active Directory) is sold per user per month, with a Free edition bundled into Microsoft cloud subscriptions plus paid P1, P2, and Suite tiers and several standalone identity products. Programmatic access via Microsoft Graph is metered through directory throttling rather than additional per-call billing — pricing is the per-user Entra licence.
Active Directory Plans Pricing is the machine-readable pricing-plan profile for Microsoft Active Directory on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Plans specification.
It defines 8 plans, covering freemium, subscription, and usage-based tiers, with named plans including Microsoft Entra ID Free, Microsoft Entra ID P1, Microsoft Entra ID P2, Microsoft Entra Suite, Microsoft Entra ID Governance (Standalone), and 3 more.
