Hi All,
A few hours ago, Microsoft has released a new Version of the Microsoft.Graph PowerShell Module.
Apparently it covers the latest API version and some minor fixes.
Microsoft.Graph 1.12.2
https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/Microsoft.Graph/1.12.2
Release Notes

Let's check the installed Version and what's available on the PowerShell Gallery

Find-Module Microsoft.Graph
To install the newest Version of the PowerShell Modules and also uninstalling the old Versions, you can use my GitHub Script. It takes a while until all Modules are installed. Wait until "Cleanup finished" is shown.
#Run Script directly from GitHub
$ScriptFromGitHub = Invoke-WebRequest "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BohrenAn/GitHub_PowerShellScripts/main/ExchangeOnline/GraphAPI/Cleanup-GraphModules.ps1"
Invoke-Expression $($ScriptFromGitHub.Content)
Let's check

Hi All,
I've seen some Posts about the new Microsoft Authenticator settings in AzureAD.
Here is how you get there.
Go to the Azure Active Directory Portal https://aad.portal.azure.com and select "Security"
On the Security Page open "Authentication methods"
On Authentication methods select "Microsoft Authenticator"
On Microsoft Authenticator Settings select "Configure"
Here you can change some settings that are already available quite for a while, but now you have a GUI to it.
