Hi,

Connect with
Import-Module SkypeOnlineConnector
$userCredential = Get-Credential
$sfbSession = New-CsOnlineSession -Credential $userCredential
Import-PSSession $sfbSession

Or you are signing in with a MFA enabled account
Import-Module SkypeOnlineConnector
$sfbSession = New-CsOnlineSession
Import-PSSession $sfbSession

You could also use this script to make it easier

Add -OverrideAdminDomain and change to your tenantname.

$sfbSession = New-CsOnlineSession -Credential $userCredential -OverrideAdminDomain "yourtenantname.onmicrosoft.com"
