Why is it possible to assign a sponsor to a member user when the sponsor's purpose is to be responsible for a guest user?

A couple of years ago, Microsoft had several problematic releases of #Azure #PowerShell. Customers were seriously unhappy, sought alternative solutions, and it took Microsoft years to rebuild trust.

You would think they had learned their lesson.

The ConsistencyLevel=eventual header does not ensure that data is "accurate and up to date." It redirects (together with $count=true) queries to an indexed directory store, allowing for more efficient searches on large datasets.

#MicrosoftGraph #PowerShell SDK team has released version 2.26 that can not run in PowerShell 7.2, the default runtime version in Azure Automation service.

A workaround is to enable Runtime environment experience (in public preview) and create a custom Runtime environment. 1/n

"Security is a priority" somehow missed the Update-MgUserPassword command.
-CurrentPassword and -NewPassword expect a string value.

In #PowerShell, #MicrosoftGraph object's properties returned by Get-Member are direct properties or relationships. Could you tell them apart?

How can you get the number of returned resources using the `az resource list` command? It seems the `length` function isn't working.

When you talk about access control, do you make a difference between "app permissions" and "app privileges"?

Lots of Entra admins are frustrated with the quality of #MicrosoftGraph #PowerShell commands, and use direct REST API calls to get a better control.

However, why do they use Invoke-RestMethod instead of Invoke-MgGraphRequest?

A habit or are there some real benefits?

Do you think Microsoft will retire AzureAD #PowerShell module in March 2025 or postpone it again?
