Hi Peter,

What is the version of PowerShell?
Can you validate that you are using PowerShell 5.1 or later?

    Hi, Mitchell Bakker,

    Thank you! I also contacted Office365 support and the agent show me the correct and updated command lines to run:

     

    PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> $credentials=Get-Credential

cmdlet Get-Credential at command pipeline position 1
Supply values for the following parameters:
Credential
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Connect-MicrosoftTeams -Credential $credentials

     

    Shame that Microsoft Teams PowerShell cmdlet documentation was not updated or friendly to a 1st-time/new user like me.

        Hi Mitchell Bakker unfortunatley peter-wxin solution didnt worked for me. My Powershell version is 5.1.19041.1
        After providing credentials and running the cmd "Connect-MicrosoftTeams -Credential $credentials" it's still throwing the same error.

        Microsoft Teams cmdlets module version installed is 1.1.4

        Please help

        Kind Regards

        Alan
