All in One Office 365 Powershell Connect

Sharing the all in one powershell functions that I use daily for o365 administration, it makes my work easy so want to share if others also want to utilize.

Different o365 services have different connecting uri & mechanisms, I covered these in one single script that you can load in your powershell profile.

These are the Functions inside the script:

LaunchEOL/RemoveEOL (Exchange Online)
LaunchSOL/RemoveSOL (Skype online)
LaunchSHO/RemoveSHO (Sharepoint online) – Updated LaunchSPO/RemoveSPO (Sharepoint online)
LaunchCOL/RemoveCOL (Security & Compliance)
LaunchMSOL/RemoveMSOL (MSonline Azure activedirectory)

Here are the steps to load it:

1. Check if powrshell profile already exists

Use TEST-Path $profile

if profile exists value will be true else its false.

2. open the profile in notepad – notepad $profile

Add the below code:

$loadscripts=”C:\AutoloadScripts” #place the downloaded script from above in this location
(Get-ChildItem “$loadscripts”).FullName | ForEach-Object {Write-Host “Loading Script “$_”” -foregroundcolor green;.$_}

capture

3. if profile doesn’t exists than you can create it by using below command & follow above guideline afterwards

new-item -path $profile -itemtype file -force

Now when you launch all powershell scripts inside the autoloadscript location will be loaded & We can use for example:

LaunchEOL to connect to Exchange online:

capture

Please note that all commands I have prefixed when importing the session so get-mailbox is get-eolmailbox, same has been done for SOL,SHO,COL.

No changes to Azure active directory.

This I have done on purpose as I don;t want to confuse my scripts between online & onpremise commands 🙂

You can use RemoveEOL, RemoveSOL etc to remove the sessions.
