If you're a content creator, author of internal documentation for IT or identity security admins, developer of Azure AD–enabled apps, independent software vendor, or Microsoft partner, we hope you use the naming guidance outlined in the ([Glossary of updated terminology](#glossary-of-updated-terminology)) to make the name change in your content and product experiences by the end of 2023.
