Generic authorization exception inviting Azure AD gests
Hi Todd,
To my understanding "Generic Authorization error" means you don`t have the permission to invite.
I believe you are the Global Admin.
change the User settings option in the Azure AD Portal.
https://portal.azure.com/#User settings=>External collaboration settings
Admins and users in Guest user role can invite.
toggle this to yes.

Mark like if it helps you. :)

- What you suggested worked so thanks. All I can figure is that Azure must have made a recent change in user invitation authorization because this was working for over a year as it was until maybe last week (i.e., the global administrator didn't need this authorization); I may have missed an Azure change notice or perhaps I mistakenly flipped this switch off somehow.
yes, That should be the reason
