Powershell: How to connect to Microsoft Cloud Services like Az, AzureAD, Exchange, Teams

Arjun JS ,

When I was working with Microsoft Azure Services, I started listing important commands which can be handy using PowerShell, so here I am publishing in my blog article below.

Prerequisites before starting:

Tools needed: Run the below commands in PowerShell to install the tool.

  1. Az: Install-Module Az -Force -AllowClobber
  2. AzureAD: Install-Module AzureAD -Force -AllowClobber
  3. ExchangeOnlineManagement: Install-Module ExchangeOnlineManagement -Force -AllowClobber
  4. Microsoft Teams: Install-Module MSTeams -Force -AllowClobber

step #1: Before proceeding further Check weather required modules are installed using below command:

Get-InstalledModule -Name Az,AzureAD,ExchangeOnlineManagement,MSTeams | 
Select-Object -Property Version,Name,Repository,InstalledLocation

Step #2: Store account credentials in a variable

$accountz = Get-Credential -Credential <youemail@domain.com> 
 
$account365 = Get-Credential -Credential <youemail@domain.com>

Below are the commands you can use to connect

Azure Cloud

Connect-AzAccount -Credential $accountz
Get-AzVM

Microsoft 365 Azure AD

Connect-AzureAD -Credential $account365
Get-AzureADUser

Microsoft 365 Exchange Online

Connect-ExchangeOnline
Get-Mailbox

MSTeams

Connect-MicrosoftTeams -Credential $account365
Get-Team

I hope will commands will help . If you have any problem comment down below.
