Try support:
MCP id in numeric
Dear Microsoft Certification Support Team,
I am facing an issue while registering for an Azure certification exam. When I enter my previous Candidate ID <Mod remove PII>, the system shows an error stating that “Candidate ID must be numeric.”
Could you please help me retrieve or update my MCP ID so I can proceed with the registration? Below are my details for reference:
Full Name: Ram Gopal Awasthi
Email ID used in certification profile : <Mod remove PII> @hotmail.com
Previous Candidate ID: <Mod remove PII>
Issue: Candidate ID not accepted due to non-numeric format
Please advise on how I can obtain or update my MCP ID to complete my Azure exam registration.
Thank you for your assistance.
Best regards,
Ram Gopal Awasthi
