I have installed Microsoft Teams PowerShell module and want to connect to my account using the command
$credential = Get-Credential
#Connect to Microsoft Teams
Connect-MicrosoftTeams -Credential $credential
A dialog will popup asking for my credentials only, and without the second step which is a code I receive on my mobile, I can't log in correctly and an error will appear.
My Question is how to bypass the two factor code or how to wait for it?
My attempt is :
I read that using just
Connect-MicrosoftTeams
Would open the Microsoft Login GUI, then inside the window I can sign in and enter the code.
The problem is the above command will throw an error and GUI will not open.

Thanks in advance for your help.
First Install-Module -Name PowerShellGet -Repository PSGallery -Force
then open a new Powershell window and Update-Module MicrosoftTeams -allowprerelease
You'll get the 2.3.2-preview
then Connect-MicrosoftTeams
now you get your MFA enabled account to work.
The irony, the non preview module cant handle MFA june 14 2021.

I am trying to move bulk users(900+) from SfB On-Premise to SfB-Online using Move-CsUser PowerShell Cmdlet. Below is the code snippet:
$INP = Get-Content -Path <txt file path>
$SESSION = New-CsOnlineSession
Import-PsSession $SESSION -AllowClobber
foreach($USER in $INP)
{
Move-CsUser -Identity $USER -Target 'sipfed.online.lync.com' -ProxyPool 'ProxyPool_FQDN' -UseOAuth -Confirm:$False
}
It works fine for 15-20 users and moves them successfully to SfBOnline however, after that it prompts for Office admin credentials again saying "We couldn't sign you in. Please try again" and doesn't accept the credential anymore. Keeps prompting the same.
NOTE:
I have followed all the possibilities from Technet with no luck.
Disabled MFA from the global admin Office account - No luck.
Tried using -UserList parameter to move bulk users - Same issue.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Been working with using Azure DevOps to automate some PowerShell scripts against SharePoint Online. From what I understand, my first step needs to be getting authenticated against that tenant. So here's what I've got so far:
trigger:
- master
pool:
vmImage: 'windows-latest'
steps:
powershell: Install-Module -Name Microsoft.Online.SharePoint.PowerShell -RequiredVersion 16.0.8029.0 -force
displayName: 'Install SP Online PowerShell'
powershell: $cred = New-Object -TypeName System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -argumentlist $env:USERNAME, $(convertto-securestring $env:PASSWORD -asplaintext -force)
displayName: 'form the credentials var from previous vars'
powershell: Connect-SPOService -Url https://$env:ORG-admin.sharepoint.com -Credential $cred
displayName: 'connect to Tenant'
Environment variables username, password, and org are defined at the pipeline and seem to be working correctly (as in, I was getting different errors before deploying those). Now, I get to the final step and it just runs forever until I cancel it. It's as if it's getting some prompt on Connect-SPOService that, of course, I can't see, and so I can't respond to.
There are no errors to react to, just sits and spins and doesn't finish. My last error was that connect-sposervice wasn't a recognized cmdlet. To resolve that, I worked on my install-module command and got that resolved, so it seems like it's running that command properly now (no errors).
I can run all the same powershells from my local machine and get there without prompts or having to enter anything extra.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!
It seems that you're following this document to connect to Sharepoint online.
Note: When prompted with the Windows PowerShell credential request dialog box, type the password for the SharePoint Online SharePoint administrator account.
When using Microsoft-hosted agent to run the PowerShell task, we can't access the UI to enter password in dislog box. So this is not supported way.
Instead, you may get help from these two documents: Installing the Office 365 CLI and Connecting to SharePoint Online.
I am following the MS guide located here and everything goes through correctly until I have to actually log in. The pop up window appears for my creds and validates them, but powershell doesn't seem to notice.
So it goes Install Module, Import Module, Verify Version, Log in. See below for what happens on the last two steps.
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Get-Module AzureRM -ListAvailable | Select-Object -Property Name,Version,Path
Name Version Path
---- ------- ----
AzureRM 6.3.0 C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\AzureRM\6.3.0\AzureRM.psd1
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Connect-AzureRmAccount
Account :
SubscriptionName :
SubscriptionId :
TenantId :
Environment :
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32>
Of course, this prevents me from doing very much else with Azure from that point forward.
Edit: Issue appears on multiple workstations
I got this same issue. I have two users like many of you: the Azure user that is the "Work" account, and then the "Personal" account which is also created automatically by Office365 and Azure. I was getting the issue when I tried to use my "personal" account, in which I have some subscriptions added (delegated).
After trying lots, what worked for me was to login to the "Work" account when the "Connect-AzureRmAccount" command asks for an username/password. Then, I again use the command "Connect-AzureRMAccount", but this time I entered the personal account, and it finally worked.
Picture here
Edit: A better way I found later was this, as I manage a lot of subscriptions/tenants from a single account (delegated access):
Put the “tenantid” into a variable (you can get this ID on the Azure Portal, in my case, on the option to change directories):
How to get your tenant's IDs quickly
$tenantId = "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"
Login specifying the TenantId:
Login-AzureRmAccount -TenantId $tenantId
Example 2
This behavior happens when you run
Clear-AzureRMContext -Scope CurrentUser
I'm not sure why and im attempting to debug on how to fix the issue. A work around is to close the powershell window and reopen a new powershell windows that does not have this command ran.
Running the command
Enable-AzureRmContextAutosave -Scope CurrentUser
Fixed the issue for me. This will autosave your context for every powershell session. If this is not desired you can run the command
Enable-AzureRmContextAutosave -Scope Process
which will save the azure context for only the process. Otherwise you will need to handle
You can try this...
Install-Module PoweshellGet -Force
Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExicutionPolicy Remotesigned
Install-Module AzureRm
Import-Module -Name AzureRm
Login-AzureRmAccount
You can use the below link to install latest PowerShell version:
https://github.com/Azure/azure-powershell/releases
And then use something like this in order to automatically pass in the username password, and skipping the UI:
$azureAccountName ="enter username here"
$azurePassword = ConvertTo-SecureString "password here" -AsPlainText -Force
$psCred = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential($azureAccountName, $azurePassword)
Login-AzureRmAccount -Credential $psCred
Have you tried the following:
Import-Module Microsoft.Powershell.Security
$azureAccountName ="enter username here"
$azurePassword = ConvertTo-SecureString "password here" -AsPlainText -Force
$psCred = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential($azureAccountName, $azurePassword)
$decrypt = $psCred.GetNetworkCredential()
$ptpass = $decrypt.Password
Write-Output "Logging in to Azure using $azureAccountName with a password of $ptpass"
Login-AzureRmAccount -Credential $psCred
If you receive an error with this code, please comment with the entire error message.
The only thing i can think of is the below
You maybe using Azure Service Management (Azure V1 / Azure Classic) which uses a different module to Azure Resource Manager (ARM , Azure V2).
To install Azure Service Management Module:
Install-Module Azure -AllowClobber
Allowing clobber because you already have AzureRM Module installed
Import Azure Module to PowerShell:
Import-Module Azure
Logs into ASM:
Add-AzureAccount
Shows you all subscriptions
Get-AzureSubscriptions
Selects the Subscription you allocate to work within
Select-AzureSubscription
Answered something similar in the below Thread:
Login-AzureRmAccount return subscription but Get-AzureSubscription return empty
Hope this helps
You can try logging in using the Service Principal credentials.
Service principal is an application created under Active Directory to which you can apply permission rules.
$pscredential = Get-Credential
Connect-AzureRmAccount -ServicePrincipal -ApplicationId "http://my-app" -Credential $pscredential -TenantId $tenantid
Refer here for more details.
in the powershell script for building continous deployment using VSTS do i need to include login-azurermaccount and if yes how do i parameterize it for user name and password.I have googled it and not able to find a correct solution..
You cannot use MSCloud services, without being logged into them.
You'd parametrize the creds in the same way you'd do it for on-prem resources that require credentials.
See the built-in help files on credential handling.
# Get parameters, examples, full and Online help for a cmdlet or function

Or using the PSCredentialObject.
PowerShell – How to create a PSCredential object
Several PowerShell commandlets take a PSCredential object to run using a particular user account. You can create the PSCredential object by using Get-Credential commandlet which opens a dialog to enter the username and password. This way of entering credentials can be used in an interactive mode.
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/koteshb/2010/02/12/powershell-how-to-create-a-pscredential-object
Microsoft recommends using an Azure service Principal for power shell automation. You can check here on how to create an Azure service Principal.
I want to execute some PowerShell scripts on our TFS Release Manager environment that use AzureAD module to provision some Azure AD groups. The scripts are executed using an Azure Powershell Task. I've installed the AzureAD module, so the AzureAD PowerShell CmdLets are recognized.
However, for them to work the scripts first needs to connect to AzureAD using the Connect-AzureAD CmdLet. This CmdLet wants to show a modal dialog for entering credentials, which obviously isn't possible in a Release Manager task. I also cannot supply credentials using command line parameters. I want Connect-AzureAD to somehow use the current user context for the connection. Is this possible?
You could use the -Credential option of Connect-AzureAD.
In your AzureAD task, you can use the following code:
```
$pass=ConvertTo-SecureString $Env:password -AsPlainText -Force
$credential=New-Object PSCredential($Env:login, $pass)
Connect-AzureAD -Credential $credential
```
login and password are stored in a secret variable in the release definition.
Alternatively you might get the password from a previous task in the build definition. I that case, in the script arguments of the task, you pass the password -password "$(password)"
and in the `Script or Script inline you have, this time:
``
param([string]$password)
$pass=ConvertTo-SecureString $password -AsPlainText -Force
$credential = New-Object PSCredential($Env:login, $pass)
Connect-AzureAD -Credential $credential
``
I get the password from KeyVault with the Azure KeyVault task, but that might not be an option for you if you are on premise.
We've found an answer. It had been setting right in front of us on the official Connect-AzureAD documentation page (example 3).
So we're now authenticating using a SPN and a self-signed certificate. This works just fine.
