gadagottiraj, I'm sure the OP has already figured this out but for anyone googling this; to my knowledge associating a hub whilst using -useweblogin is not supported.

    _BlackfojDoes this mean that it is not possible with MFA enabled?  or is there an alternative to connect with MFA without -useweblogin?

      PittSharePointPro I believe you just drop the -UseWebLogin if MFA is present and authenticate using Credential Manager or just typing into the PowerShell authentication prompt. Hope that helps!

        _Blackfoj - thanks!  I'll try credential manager.  It will be nice if the template will apply the associated hub but not a critical issue otherwise since it's just a couple easy clicks.
