I build a script to map some old taxonomy value from old columns to new columns and tax. values. There are some cases where I have to remove or empty current meta data. Does someone know how it works with Set-PnPListItem. While updating I pass the list item and a hash #{field=value}. Updating works fine but can't remove or empty.
To remove or empty I tried to set the value to -1, $null and "" but nothing works and I will get this error: Set-PnPListItem : Value cannot be null.
Error message
Here is my test result.
#region Variables
$Username = "admin#xxx.onmicrosoft.com"
$Password = "Password"
$siteURL = "https://xxx.sharepoint.com/sites/lee"
#endregion Variables
#region Credentials
[SecureString]$SecurePass = ConvertTo-SecureString $Password -AsPlainText -Force
[System.Management.Automation.PSCredential]$PSCredentials = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential($Username, $SecurePass)
#endregion Credentials
Connect-PnPOnline -Url $siteURL -Credentials $PSCredentials
Set-PnPListItem -List "ListMetaData" -Identity 1 -Values #{"Title" = "TitleUPDATE";"MMField"=$null}
Write-Host "-----------"
Make sure the field is not set as required as Mike suggested.

I want to group a Sharepoint list by a column using powershell, so when users access this list, it's already grouped.
I know the List settings already has this Here, but I want to be able to control this via a powershell script that resets the list to data read from a local server.
Below images provide additional clarity of my question.
Columns not grouped together
Columns grouped together
Please take a reference of below powershell script:
#Set Variables
$SiteURL = "https://abc.sharepoint.com/sites/s01"
$ListName = "your list name"
$Username='admin#abc.onmicrosoft.com'
$Password = 'xxxx'
#region Credentials
[SecureString]$SecurePass = ConvertTo-SecureString $Password -AsPlainText -Force
[System.Management.Automation.PSCredential]$PSCredentials = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential($Username, $SecurePass)
#endregion Credentials
#Connect to PNP Online
Connect-PnPOnline -Url $SiteURL -Credentials $PSCredentials
#Get the Client Context
$Context = Get-PnPContext
#Get the List View
$View = Get-PnPView -Identity "All Items" -List $ListName
$Context.Load($View)
$Context.ExecuteQuery()
$View.ViewQuery
$ViewQuery = '<GroupBy Collapse="TRUE" GroupLimit="30"><FieldRef Name="num" /></GroupBy>' + $View.ViewQuery
#Update the view Query
$View.ViewQuery = $ViewQuery
$View.Update()
$Context.ExecuteQuery()

I have been using this script below and it looks like it goes through, however the items never import into the list. I feel like I am missing something but I'm not sure what. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
$user = "username"
$password = ConvertTo-SecureString "password" -AsPlainText -Force
$mycreds = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential ($user, $password)
Connect-SPOService -Url https://Your-Company-admin.sharepoint.com -Credential $mycreds
Connect-PnPOnline –Url https://Your-Company.sharepoint.com -Credential $mycreds
$Upload = Import-CSV "C:\test1.csv"
foreach ($Record in $Upload) {
Add-PnPListItem -List "List Name" -Values #{
"Our_x0020_Staff" = $Record.'Our Staff';
"Type_x0020_of_x0020_Ticket" = $Record.'Type of Ticket';
"Created" = $Record.'Created';
"Problem" = $Record.'Problem';
"Equipment_x0020_Name" = $Record.'Equipment Name';
"Title" = $Record.'Title';
"Location" = $Record.'Location';
"Our_x0020_Team" = $Record.'Our Team';
"Ticket_x0020_Assigned_x0020_To" = $Record.'Ticket Assigned To';
"Ticket_x0020_Closed_x003f_" = $Record.'Ticket Closed';
"Ticket_x0020_Status" = $Record.'Ticket Status';
"Solution" = $Record.'Solution'
}
}
This script works for me.
I have a suspicion that either your Connect-PnPOnline url is not correct, or that your value for "List Name" in Add-PnPListItem is not correct, or both.
The reason I say this is because if there were other problems wrong with your data, for example if you had the CSV filename wrong or if the data for "created" wasn't in a date format, it would tell you as much in big red words with an error. Your post seems to imply that you are not receiving an error so I don't think its any problem like that. However, if you reference a list that is not there or if you are connected to the wrong site, you will not receive an error at all. The command will appear to work even though it doesn't.
Your Connect-PnPOnline url should reference the exact site that this list is on. For example:
Connect-PnpOnline -url https://Your-Company-admin.sharepoint.com/sites/sitecollectionname
And double check that the list name in Add-PnPListItem -List "List Name" is correct too
I'm attempting to come up with a powershell script that would allow me to export a list of sites and subsites and the permission groups there in to a CSV.
I'm familiar with using the cmdlts but not building whole scripts.
I'm able to use:
Get-SPOSiteGroup | Export-CSV C:\...
To export site groups to a CSV but it doesn't include the name of the sites they are in.
I also found a script online that would print out the sites and subsite in my site collection here:
https://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/101176/powershell-to-list-all-sites-and-subsites-in-sharepoint-online
I'm not sure how to marry the information. I'm trying to export to a CSV a list of sites and subsites and the security groups there in.
I try to run:
get-sposite | Get-SPOSiteGroup **webdite**
And get this error message:
"Get-SPOSiteGroup : The input object cannot be bound to any parameters
for the command either because the command does not take pipeline
input or the input and its properties do not match any of the
parameters that take pipeline input"
I'm not sure how to get all of this to work together.
Get-SPOSiteGroup cmdlet accepts Site parameter, so site groups per every site collection within a tenant could be retrieved like this:
Connect-SPOService -Url $adminUrl
$sitesInfo = Get-SPOSite
#Retrieve and print all sites
foreach ($site in $sitesInfo) {
Write-Host 'Site collection:' $site.Url
Get-SPOSiteGroup -Site $site.Url
Write-Host '-----------------------------'
}
To retrieve in addition groups per every web site, the following script could be utilized:
$adminUrl = "https://<tenant>-admin.sharepoint.com"
$UserName = "<username>#<tenant>.onmicrosoft.com"
$Password = "--password goes here--"
$SecurePassword = $Password | ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText -Force
$creds = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.SharePointOnlineCredentials($UserName, $SecurePassword)
$pscreds = New-Object -TypeName System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -argumentlist $userName, $SecurePassword
Connect-SPOService -Url $adminUrl -Credential $pscreds
$sitesInfo = Get-SPOSite
foreach ($site in $sitesInfo) {
Write-Host 'Site collection:' $site.Url
#1. Retrieve and print site info
#Get-SPOSiteGroup -Site $site.Url
$AllWebs = Get-SPOWebs -Url $site.Url -Credential $creds
#2.Retrieve and print webs info (groups Title property in this case)
foreach ($web in $AllWebs) {
$web.Context.Load($web.RoleAssignments.Groups)
$web.Context.ExecuteQuery()
$web.RoleAssignments.Groups.GetEnumerator() | % { Write-Host $_.Title }
}
Write-Host '-----------------------------'
}
Key points:
to retrieve webs within a site collection Get-SPOWebs.ps1 is utilized
here
to get groups per web site Web.RoleAssignments.Groups is used
I'm trying to create a local user in an Azure AD B2C directory which can be used for authentication immediately after creation.
Connect-AzureAD -TenantId $targetB2cTenant
$passwordProfile = New-Object -TypeName Microsoft.Open.AzureAD.Model.PasswordProfile
$passwordProfile.Password = "Test-User-Password-Here"
$userName = "TestUser#MyTestB2CTenant.onmicrosoft.com"
$signInNames = #(
(New-Object `
Microsoft.Open.AzureAD.Model.SignInName `
-Property #{Type = "userName"; Value = $userName})
)
$newUser = New-AzureADUser -AccountEnabled $True -DisplayName "testpowershellusercreation" -PasswordProfile $passwordProfile -SignInNames $signInNames -CreationType "LocalAccount"
Disconnect-AzureAD
From reading the documentation I need to specify the CreationType parameter as "LocalAccount":
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/azuread/new-azureaduser?view=azureadps-2.0
Creating a B2C user with MFA that can immediately login
However when I run the powershell code I receive the following error:
New-AzureADUser : Error occurred while executing NewUser
Code: Request_BadRequest
Message: One or more properties contains invalid values.
This error message is not present when I remove the -CreationType parameter.
What is the correct way to create a local account in a B2C directory using Powershell?
A sign-in name of type "userName" can't contain the '#' character in the value property.
i.e. You can't set it to an email address.
You might want to also set the following parameters for the new user:
$passwordProfile = New-Object -TypeName Microsoft.Open.AzureAD.Model.PasswordProfile
$passwordProfile.ForceChangePasswordNextLogin = $False
$passwordProfile.Password = "<Password>"
$newUser = New-AzureADUser ... -PasswordPolicies "DisablePasswordExpiration"
I think you could also change the type of sign-in name from "userName" to "email", to work around this issue and allow users to continue using their foreign domain email addresses as login, if required.
$signInNames = (
(New-Object `
Microsoft.Open.AzureAD.Model.SignInName `
-Property #{Type = "email"; Value = "pstesta#fsdfsd.com"})
)
I'm trying to write a script for automatic VM Backups, that you can also start manually in SharePoint Online. I'm planning to keep a list with the names of the VMs in SharePoint and wanted to start writing the script by getting the list of VMs. I think my code looks good so far, but when I want to get the list by title it returns nothing.
Here's the code:
[Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile(([System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoint.Client").location))
[Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile(([System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.runtime").location))
Function Get-SPOContext([string]$Url,[string]$UserName,[string]$Password)
{
$SecurePassword = $Password | ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText -Force
$context = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ClientContext($Url)
$context.Credentials = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.SharePointOnlineCredentials($UserName, $SecurePassword)
return $context
}
Function Get-ListItems([Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ClientContext]$Context, [String]$ListTitle) {
$list = $Context.Web.Lists.GetByTitle($listTitle)
$qry = [Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.CamlQuery]::CreateAllItemsQuery()
$items = $list.GetItems($qry)
$Context.Load($items)
$Context.ExecuteQuery()
return $items
}
$UserName = read-host "Please enter your name:"
$PasswordReadHost = Read-Host -Prompt "Enter password" -AsSecureString
$Password = [Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::PtrToStringAuto([Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::SecureStringToBSTR($PasswordReadHost))
$Url = "https://domain.sharepoint.com/"
$ListTitle = "VMList"
$context = Get-SPOContext -Url $Url -UserName $UserName -Password $Password
$items = Get-ListItems -Context $context -ListTitle $ListTitle
When I run this, add a breakpoint at the end and check the value of the $list variable I get two error messages:
Exception calling "ExecuteQuery" with "0" argument(s): "The list
'VMList' does not exist on the website with the URL
'https://domain.sharepoint.com'.
and
An error occurred while enumerating through a collection: The
collection has not been initialized. It has not been requested or the
request has not been executed. It may need to be explicitly
requested.
After a lot of googling I tried changing many things, but nothing seemed to work. I guess my question is: Why can't the list be found on SharePoint and what does it mean to initialize a collection or if it's just an authorization issue?
