How do I access o365 powershell online
Ok, so I work for a company that we use Gmail as our email system. I'm responsible for divestitures. A few days ago, one of the companys we sold to I was working on transferring their email to their o365 environment. We were trying to get her o365 environment setup so our email transfer tool could connect. When I was remotted into her PC, we were following some instructions. (I've worked with PS for years on Exchange 2010.) I don't remember how we did it, but we were connected into the o365 powershell within a webpage. I thought it was through azure. But, I have my own o365 business account and have my own azure account. I cannot find an option to connect to powershell anywhere within azure. What am I missing?

nerddad Was it the Exchange Online PowerShell? To get this you go to the old Exchange admin centre https://outlook.office365.com/ecp/ then hybrid, then configure Exchange Online PowerShell
This then installs the module and opens PowerShell. It uses that "Click Once" installer so if you're lucky it'll work in Edge (it did for me just now, but never used to), otherwise you'll have to use IE.
(see attached) That kind of worked... I'm not seeing a whole lot of commands to run though. What am I missing? I placed my o365 on lit hold so I never loose emails. I'm trying to get to the dumpster.
nerddad Did you run Connect-EXOPSSession? Once you've done that you get all the Exchange Online cmdlets
I don't remember ever seeing an embedded PowerShell in Azure but I've never gone looking for one either so no idea where that could be.
