Joining the Alpha in Insider

Hey there!

That's a question that's going to be best suited for the
Xbox Preview Program forums. You'll want to head over there and post and check with them.

Thanks!

You don't unless you join the insiders program which is on alpha skip and alpha only

Which both are invite only

Ya join the insiders

Only alpha skip ahead or higher keep in mind it would have bugs and limited extension support

You download the insiders hub and then join.

You can already if you join the insiders program

Alpha skip ahead

Hello,

i am from Germany ....

Now i want to join Alpha Ring, but Microsoft Support tells me, the only way i can join Alpha Ring ist via Invite from another People in the Alpha Ring.

But i dont know anyone in Alpha Ring.

What can i do to join Alpha Ring in XBOX Insider Hub?

Greetings from Germany as well.

Previously, before there were rings, you had to be invited by someone already in the "Xbox Preview Program" as it was called back then.

This was then changed to the Xbox Insider Program, and anyone was able to join by installing the Xbox Insider App, and anyone is allowed to choose a ring up to Beta.

Alpha and Alpha Skip Ahead are only available by invitation from someone at Microsoft, and only if new free slots are available.

You will have to "earn" the privilege to be considered by providing regular and quality feedback, and hope that there are Alpha/Skip Ahead members that provided less feedback, and are removed from the Alpha/Skip Ahead rings.

So the only thing we can suggest is to be patient, and to continue participating in the available activities, and wait for the invitation.
