PowerShell Exchange Exception – Cannot bind argument to parameter ‘TokenProvider’ because it is null

We have upgraded the Exchange Online Management PowerShell Module to newer version (2.0.3).

Install-Module -Name ExchangeOnlineManagement -RequiredVersion 2.0.3

After upgrade some of our solutions started giving below errors:

Exception calling “GetSteppablePipeline” with “1” argument(s): “Cannot bind argument to parameter ‘TokenProvider’ because it is null.”


On researching, We have found that this is only happening in scripts where we are connecting to both Exchange Onpremise as well as Exchange Online.

LaunchEXOnprem -ComputerName Exchange1.labtest.com

LaunchEOL -Appid $EXOClientID -CertificateThumbprint $ThumbPrint -Organization $TenantName


On doing, more troubleshooting and research on internet we have found the easy fix, just by changing the order in which we connect will fix it.

Call Exchange Online First and then Call exchange onpremise will resolve this error.

LaunchEOL -Appid $EXOClientID -CertificateThumbprint $ThumbPrint -Organization $TenantName

LaunchEXOnprem -ComputerName Exchange1.labtest.com


I hope this quick TIP will assist you and save your troubleshooting time if you are in same kind of scenario.
