Connect to Azure AD with PowerShell
We like to connect to Azure AD with PowerShell because we want to retrieve Microsoft 365 MFA user status. Before we can do that, we have to install Microsoft Azure Active Directory Module. In this article, we will guide you step by step.
Install module MSOnline
To install the module MSOnline, you can use:
- Windows PowerShell
- Windows PowerShell ISE
- Visual Studio Code
Start one of the above applications as administrator (high privileges). Run the command Install-Module MSOnline. Press Y and Enter.
PS C:\> Install-Module MSOnline
Untrusted repository
You are installing the modules from an untrusted repository. If you trust this repository, change its
InstallationPolicy value by running the Set-PSRepository cmdlet. Are you sure you want to install the modules from
'PSGallery'?

Connect to Azure Active Directory
Run the Connect-MsolService cmdlet to initiate a connection with Azure Active Directory.
PS C:\> Connect-MsolService
After running the above cmdlet, the sign-in window shows up.
After connecting with Azure AD, you can run your PowerShell commands.
There is no Disconnect-MsolService cmdlet. What you can do is close the Windows PowerShell window.
