Microsoft is working on a new set of PowerShell modules grouped under the umbrella of Microsoft.Graph that will (hopefully) cover all the Microsoft Graph resources available. I’ve already used some of them for my Conditional Access Documentation Script and thought they have some notable features worth sharing. Advantages and changes The Microsoft Graph modules use the new Microsoft Authentication Library (MSAL) instead of the old Azure AD Authentication Library (ADAL). The MSAL library in the modules implements a token cache which persists the access and refresh tokens....

For some recent Microsoft Graph scripts I wanted to translate some Azure AD Object ID / GUID entries to their respective display name. The array with the GUID’s contained already some readable text. Of course I only wanted to translate the GUID entries with according Graph API requests. Otherwise the Graph requests would fail. Google offered only some fancy regex functions and helpers but I had that .NET function in my mind which looks much nicer compared to whatever regex pattern that I don’t understand....

Documenting things sucks. If it involves a lot of klick(edi klack klack) in portals and copying information around even more. But there’s hope. And it’s called automation. For the Intune part Thomas Kurt did already an awesome job with his IntuneDocumentation. Now the Modern Workplace Concierge is ready to help you with documenting your Conditional Access configuration. I promise you: we will get through this within under 15 minutes! Afterwards you can make an impression on your fellow Enterprise Mobility teammates....

If you are using the “AzureAD” PowerShell module (also applies to the AzureADPreview) you have probably noticed that the Connect-AzureAD Cmdlet ignores existing access tokens and initiates a new sign in to Azure AD even if you are already signed in. Prompt you get when calling the "Connect-AzureAD" cmdlet Long story short, I got annoyed every time when I accidentally recalled Connect-AzureAD (mostly when working with Scripts) until I found this amazing hint on technet and now I want to (re-)share it with you....

The Azure AD portal does not really provide an overview about all directory role assignments in your tenant. If you want to review existing Azure AD Directory roles a csv report will probably better server your needs. Therefore I created a PowerShell script to export the role assignments. The Azure AD Portal only displays limited information about the assignments ### PowerShell Script Find the PowerShell script in my techblog GitHub Repository....

An account in your Azure Active Directory got deleted and you want to examine who initiated the delete action? Sounds very simple but if you do not want to search your logs manually things become a little bit trickier. The challenge When a user gets deleted and you only remember it’s userPrincipalName you wont be able to to search for a match. And I doubt that you memorized the Azure AD object id of that user....

With the availability of the new Edge browser based on chromium I gained the first experiences about configuring the browser in an enterprise environment. Of course I want to share those with you. This post hopefully helps you to roll-out and configure the new Edge Browser with Microsoft Intune. Install the new Edge Chromium with Intune The installation of Edge is not the main topic of this post. The Edge browser is available in Intune as built-in app type like the Office 365 suite....

Microsoft recently announced to install a Bing extension on new and existing Office 365 ProPlus installations which will set Bing as the default search engine starting with the first Office 365 ProPlus release in 2020 - not appreciated Microsoft and definitely not what customers want! The extension will be shipped for new Office installations and existing clients with Office 365 ProPlus installed when they update. Update 11.02.2020: “ The Microsoft Search in Bing browser extension will not be automatically deployed with Office 365 ProPlus....

Recently a customer using Microsoft Intune requested to deploy a TrueType font required by one of their line of business apps. Because Intune does not offer a native solution to deploy fonts it was quite clear that a PowerShell script or Intune Win32 app should do the trick. Note that the mentioned PowerShell scripts can also be used for app deployments with Configuration Manager (MEMCM). How to install a font programmatically?...

If you manage multiple Intune tenants with your Azure AD account (invited as guest in the foreign tenant) we need a way to specify the tenant id we want to connect. Otherwise you will land in your home-tenant every time. This posts shows you how to accomplish that with the Intune PowerShell SDK. If we have a look at the default Graph settings in a PowerShell session with the Intune PowerShell SDK you will notice that all authentication requests will land on the /common endpoint....
