get warning WARNING: Parameter 'Web' is obsolete. The -Web parameter will be removed in a future

While using a pnp script I got a warning as below. Can you advise how to remove the warning

 

WARNING: Parameter 'Web' is obsolete. The -Web parameter will be removed in a future release.

    Add the WarningAction parameter to your Set-PnPGroupPermissions statement.

     

    -WarningAction:SilentlyContinue

     

    If that doesn't work for this particular command, you can pipe the warning stream (using 3>) to $null:

     

    Set-PnPGroupPermission -blah -blah 3> $null;

     

    Cheers,

    Lain

      hi LainRobertson here is my code, can yo guide me with respect to that? I am trying to add an existing sharepoint group to all subsites under site collection

      $SiteURL = "https://abc.sharepoint.com/sites/MyProject"


      $Cred = Get-Credential

      Try {

      Connect-PnPOnline -Url $SiteURL -Credentials $Cred


      $subwebs = Get-PnPSubWeb -Recurse

      foreach ($Subweb in $subwebs)
      {
      Write-Host $Subweb.Url
      $Answer = Read-Host -Prompt "Do you want to continue adding group to subsites (y or n or break)?"
      if ($Answer -eq "n")
      {
      Continue
      }
      if ($Answer -eq "break")
      {
      break
      }
      Add-PnPGroup -Identity 'PMO Team' -web $Subweb -AddRole Read


      }
      }
      catch {
      write-host "Error: $($_.Exception.Message)" -foregroundcolor Red
      }

        Unfortunately, I don't work with SharePoint at all meaning I can't troubleshoot SharePoint-related scripts beyond the parts relating specifically to PowerShell (i.e. I can't look at SharePoint errors or why SharePoint isn't doing something it should, etc.)

         

        There's a couple of other contributors in this channel who do work extensively with SharePoint though, so hopefully they can stop by and offer some assistance.

         

        Cheers,

        Lain
