How to run Exchage PowerShell - Exchange Online
Simple question I am working at a company that uses Exchange online ( they call it Cloud Based - O365 which is the same thing I think).
I am logged into https://admin.exchange.microsoft.com/
But not sure where to run Exchange PowerShell form any ideas?
I can see Azure Cloud Shell but I don't want to use that as we don't have a storage mounted.
