How do I access o365 powershell online
(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.
Still curious how I got to it on the web. I thought we were in Azure on a website and we opened up PS directly within the webpage. I'd imagine if I did this, I wouldn't have to monkey around with getting the right modules or ps-snapins or whatever to get all the available commandlets. Granted it would be nice to do it this way too... then I could use ISE to script. (I think ISE has been deprecated... but MS code or whatever they use these days. My company is a decade behind the times. So, I'm always being introduced to ancient technology.)

nerddad It wasn't Azure Cloud Shell was it? Just had a look in Azure and found a Powershell window within the Azure portal which sounds a bit like you were describing? (button to open it on the top near the right, if you've not used it on that tenancy before it'll ask you PowerShell or Bash and ask you to let it make a storage account)

Well, I thought I did that... but I just ran that command again and now I'm seeing all the commandlets. I guess I should be good to go. Now time to play around and learn.

Don't know if you happen to know... I put my mailbox on lit hold so I never loose anything. In my own on premises Exchange, if the dumpster maxes out, I remove the quota on the database that the user is on. (We never increase it... just remove it.) But, doesn't look like o365 will allow me to just remove the dumpster quota on my database... LOL. So, I was trying to find another way for this to work. What options will I have when this fills up? I'm sure MS isn't too keen to allowing everyone to lift their quotas and have an unlimited quota. So, I'm sure they're smarter than I am and thought of anything I'm going to think of.
