AMicrosoft Entra admin center UI
BMicrosoft 365 admin center UI Correct
CAzure portal Cost Management
DOffice.com Apps launcher

UI for license assignment now lives in the Microsoft 365 admin center; API and PowerShell still work. The licensing-groups-resolve-problems note confirms that, as of September 1, 2024, license assignment UI moved to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center; API and PowerShell remain available.

Why A is wrong: Entra admin center UI no longer supports license assignment after the cutoff.

Why B is correct: Correct. The licensing-groups-resolve-problems note confirms that, as of September 1, 2024, license assignment UI moved to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center; API and PowerShell remain available.

Why C is wrong: Cost Management does not assign Microsoft 365 licenses.

Why D is wrong: Office.com is the user app launcher, not an admin surface.
