Connect-AzAccount with newest PS module does not redirect to browser sign-in as the older versions did. Now it’s a popup instead, which takes longer to sign-in with. Same with Connect-ExchangeOnline newest module, why this new behavior - anyone knows?

Woah, this feature totally slipped under my #Entra radar - new protected action capability in #ConditionalAccess for hard-deletion of directory objects. Require e.g. compliant device, phishing-resistant MFA and re-auth before allowing permanent deletion of users, M365 groups and apps in Entra ID!

I keep hearing recommendations for excluding #Entra breakglass accounts from all CA policies - I don’t agree. They should be included in at least one single, special CA policy requiring phishing-resistant MFA (FIDO2), where only breakglass accs’ are included. Session policy too. Thoughts?

Want to run roadrecon, but a device compliance policy is getting in your way? You can use the Intune Company Portal client ID, which is a hardcoded and undocumented exclusion in CA for device compliance. It has user_impersonation rights on the AAD Graph 😃

Funny thing is, 99% of the apps I’ve seen still using Azure AD Graph is Microsoft’s own apps 😬

I know at least some SaaS vendors use these EXO legacy tokens still, so good to stay updated on this with the coming deprecation.

I just read this cool blog post by @smsagent.bsky.social covering how to activate eligible PIM roles using PS MgGraph when CA policies require Auth Context, found in @merill.net’s epic #Entra newsletter. This problem has been bugging me! However, shouldn’t MgGraph add support for Auth Context CAPs?

Sharing my #PowerShell Starter Pack again. I realized I must have accidentally dropped @robsewell.com's PowerShell feed, so I added it back. I also added @psconf.eu #PSConfEU feed. go.bsky.app/9ozmoAY

Do you remember the first big task you tackled with #PowerShell? How about the moment it all just clicked, that system administration shouldn't be about clicks? What drew you to #automation?

The hardest part of moving from «there» to Bluesky is that it’s hard to find all the interesting people I’m following on the other platform 😵‍💫 Where you at?
