The parameter might not be available depending on the permissions you have, to be on the safe side make sure to run it as Global administrator (or any member of the "Organization Configuration" role group). In addition, it might not be available for certain "flavors" of O365, say the German cloud.

When I run Set-OrganizationConfig I the following:

GuestsUsageGuidelinesLink                                 :
FocusedInboxOn                                            :
FocusedInboxOnLastUpdateTime                              : 1/1/0001 12:00:00 AM
ForestConfigVersion                                       :

 

I am in the US so not sure why this would not work.

    Also, I am executing this as a Global Admin so it should not be a permissions issue.

        Thank you for your help.

        No, those commands do not exist per this error message:

        or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.
