 This article will show you how to create an FSLogix profile container with Azure Files and Azure Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS).
 
-## Set up Azure AD DS
+## Prerequisites
 
-This section explains how to set up your Azure AD DS account and configure it to create FSLogix profile containers. If you already have your Azure AD DS account set up, skip ahead to [Add Azure AD DS admins](#add-azure-ad-ds-admins).
+This article assumes you've already set up an Azure AD DS instance. If you don't have one yet, follow the instructions in [Create a basic managed domain](../active-directory-domain-services/tutorial-create-instance.md) first, then return here.
 
-To configure your Azure AD DS account to create FSLogix profile containers:
-
-1. Sign in to the Azure portal with an account that has contributor or administrator permissions.
-
-2. Select **New**, then in the search bar, search for and select **Azure Active Directory Domain Services**.
-
-3. When the Azure AD DS window opens, select **Create**.
-
-4. In the **Basics** tab:
