Assigning a Manager with PowerShell Graph – Manager Not Found
Hi everyone, We are currently refactoring our PowerShell scripts to align with Microsoft's recommended standards. In our script that creates new users in Azure Active Directory (AAD) via Microsoft Graph, we’re having trouble assigning a manager to a new user. Whether we try using the manager’s object ID or email address, the manager is not found, and the assignment fails. Has anyone encountered this issue before? Is there something we might be doing wrong in how we’re referencing or assigning the manager? Thanks in advance for your help.

Export Enterprise apps and signin count
I need to export all the configured enterprise apps and login count for each. This script does the job, but it truncates the application name (see example screen shot) and I can't figure out how to export the results to csv. Can anyone help? #To enable verbose [CmdletBinding()] Param() #Retrieve list of applications $Apps = Get-AzureADApplication #Loop through each application ForEach($App in $Apps){ Write-Verbose "Processing $($App.DisplayName)" #Retrieve logs filtered on AppID $Log = Get-AzureADAuditSignInLogs -All $true -filter "appid eq '$($App.AppID)'" #Create a custom object for output [PSCustomObject]@{ ApplicationName = $App.DisplayName ApplicationID = $App.AppID SignIns = $Log.count } #To prevent throttling on Sign-in Log querying, insert a sleep Start-Sleep 1 }Powershell Script to extract Azure VM Metrics data
Hi Community, hope you are doing well. I am currently playing around with powershell scripting and trying to extract Azure VM utilization data using Get-AzMetric powershell module. I am trying to extract VM metrics through my script for all VMs in my current subscription (free trial) and outputting the same to a csv file. I can see the data getting extracted when I run in console but when I run the script I am unable to see the data getting outputted to my csv file. Please find below my script: # Modules importation #$modules = 'Az.Accounts','Az.Compute', 'Az.Reservations' , 'Az.Storage' , 'Az.Billing' ,'Az.BillingBenefits' ,'Az.Monitor','Az.ResourceGraph', 'Join-Object' ,'PSExcel' ,'Az.Resources', 'Az.CostManagement','ImportExcel' # PS Module required #Install-Module -Name $modules -Scope CurrentUser -Force #Powershell-5.1 # Suppress breaking changes Set-Item Env:\SuppressAzurePowerShellBreakingChangeWarnings "true" # Connect to Azure Connect-AzAccount # Name of the analyze [void][Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName('Microsoft.VisualBasic') $title = ' Azure VM Usage' $msg = 'Please enter the name of the analyze:' $checklistname = [Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction]::InputBox($msg, $title) # Subscription(s) selection - CTRL & click to select more than 1 subscription $subquery = (Get-AzSubscription | Out-GridView -Title "Select an Azure Subscription" -PassThru) $sub = $subquery.Id Write-Host "Subscription(s) selected: $sub" -ForegroundColor Green # Creation of the directroy New-Item -Path "c:\" -Name "Azurecost\$checklistname" -ItemType "directory" -force set-location c:\azurecost\$checklistname #$csvFileVM = New-Object System.IO.StreamWriter("c:\azurecost\$checklistname\VM-Usage.csv") #$csvFileVM.WriteLine("Name, Id, ResourceGroup, MaxCPU") foreach ($subscription in $sub) { # Set the subscription context Set-AzContext -Subscription $subscription $vms = Get-AzVM $vmUtilizationData = @() # Loop through each VM to get utilization metrics foreach ($vm in $vms) { $vmName = $vm.Name $resourceId = $vm.Id $Resourcegroup = $vm.ResourceGroupName # Get metrics for the VM (e.g., CPU Percentage) $metric = Get-AzMetric -ResourceId $resourceId -MetricName "Percentage CPU" -TimeGrain 12:00:00 -StartTime (Get-Date).AddDays(-3) -EndTime (Get-Date) $MaxCPU = $metric.data.maximum | Measure-Object -Maximum | Select-Object -property Maximum #$csvFileVM.WriteLine(" $MaxCPU") $vmUtilizationData += [PSCustomObject]@{ VMName = $vmName ResourceGroup = $Resourcegroup MaxCPU = $MaxCPU } } } $vmUtilizationData | Export-Csv -Path "c:\Azurecost\$checklistname\VMUsage.csv" -NoTypeInformation Write-Host "Your script has finished running." pause Please help me understand what am I missing here since other details like VM name, Resource group name are getting outputted to my csv file through this script except the metric values.[resolved] Variables are not consistent
Hello internet. My mind is completely blown by this! I have a PowerAutomate that sets some 'compose' actions and then uses them to start a job. It is a PowerShell 7.2 script running in a Runbook extension-based hybrid worker on a Debian 11 Azure VM. I've reduced the script to just printing the inputted variable values. That's all, yet it provides them transposed! param ( [string] $siteNAME, [string] $OMd, [string] $userNAME, [string] $templateNAME ) $scriptVERSION = "x.y.z" function WO { write-output $wriOU } write-output "----------------------------------" $wriOU = "siteNAME: "+$($siteNAME);WO $wriOU = "OMd: "+$($OMd);WO $wriOU = "userNAME: "+$($userNAME);WO $wriOU = "templateNAME: "+$($templateNAME);WO write-output "----------------------------------" $wriOU = "Script Version: [ "+$scriptVERSION+" ]";WO write-output "-end of line-" #EOF As you can see 'siteNAME' retains the value correctly. But then 'OMd', 'username', and 'templateNAME' goes sideways so hard... Why? What am I doing wrong, this seems super odd... Any insight is greaaaatly appreciated.

My goal is to create folders within specific users' OneDrive accounts. Could you please assist me in resolving this? Thank you!
