Partner Intune reporting questions
I need some help for my global partner- SHI International. We have a monthly services modernization briefing with the SHI M365 practice team. They have a need around 1-2 Q&A deep-dive sessions where their team of M365 experts want to ask some in=depth technical and pre-sales related questions related to Intune Reporting Challenges and Customer Pain Points, Current Intune Reporting Limitations, Technical Barriers to Reporting, Permissions and Consent Model Confusion, Feedback on Documentation and User Experience. Appreciate any guidance on a PSA SME on this topic or a global black belt, that would be great. Appreciate if you can point me to the latest updated documentation on this topic. I reached out to several folks in the PSA team with no luck yet. Thanks!Updating the Entra ID Password Protection Policy with the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK
The Entra ID password protection policy contains settings that affect how tenants deal with passwords. Entra ID includes a default policy that doesn’t require additional licenses. Creating a custom password protection policy requires tenant users to have Entra P1 licenses. As explained in this article, once the licensing issue is solved, it’s easy to update the policy settings with PowerShell. https://office365itpros.com/2025/10/23/password-protection-policy-ps/Automating Microsoft 365 with PowerShell Second Edition
The Office 365 for IT Pros team are thrilled to announce the availability of Automating Microsoft 365 with PowerShell (2nd edition). This completely revised 350-page book delivers the most comprehensive coverage of how to use Microsoft Graph APIs and the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK with Microsoft 365 workloads (Entra ID, Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, Teams, Planner, and more). Existing subscribers can download the second edition now free of charge. https://office365itpros.com/2025/06/30/automating-microsoft-365-with-powershell2/Creating a Comprehensive Inactive Guest Account Report
Many examples of how to report inactive Entra ID guest accounts with PowerShell are available on the internet, but they're all flawed because they make decisions based on the last sign in. That's a shortsighted method because it doesn't take guest activity into account. This article explains how to combine audit data with sign-in data to create an enhanced view of guest account activity so that intelligent decisions can be made to keep or retain the accounts. https://practical365.com/inactive-guest-account-report/What’s the Best Way to Find SharePoint Online Sites with Graph PowerShell?
What’s the best way to find SharePoint sites with the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK? Is the Get-MgAllSite cmdlet best or should you use the Get-MgSite cmdlet? Does it matter if you’re looking for one site or many sites? We explore the issue in this article by examining some reasons why you’d choose Get-MgSite and others that drive the decision for Get-MgAllSite. https://office365itpros.com/2025/10/06/get-mgallsite-and-get-mgsite/Assembly Clashes Make Microsoft 365 PowerShell Frustrating
An assembly clash happens when a PowerShell module attempts to load a .NET assembly only to find that a different version is already loaded in the session. Unhappily, this kind of thing happens far too often with Microsoft 365 modules, which implies that there isn’t a great deal of coordination between different development groups. All you can do is to load modules in the right order. https://office365itpros.com/2025/09/24/assembly-clash-microsoft-365-ps/Updating the User Password and Authentication Report
A change to a Graph beta API meant that some data used to create the user password and authentication report was no longer available. An update was required for the PowerShell script. The experience underlines the truth that developers should not rely on the Graph beta APIs because the APIs are prone to change at any time as Microsoft moves them along to become production-ready. https://office365itpros.com/2025/09/23/password-and-authentication-report/
