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.

- AzureAD: Install-Module AzureAD -Force -AllowClobber
- ExchangeOnlineManagement: Install-Module ExchangeOnlineManagement -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>
