Unblock MFA
Looking to user Powershell to unblock a user within Azure MFA if they get blocked. I can Enable, Enforce, and Disable via Powershell but I am not finding those commands for PowerShell.

Interesting, I've never seen deny result in a block when using Azure MFA. I just did a quick test with my account and it doesn't result in blocking. Perhaps I'm missing something...
In any case, the unblock action can only be done via the portal UI afaik.

When any MFA enabled Microsoft or Office 365 user has tried login in with incorrect password then the user account gets blocked and can be unblocked using below URL.
Even if you have basic free subscription a Global Admin can Login here an unblock the user account.

Hope that answers the question however any unanswered queries about MFA or Office 365 are welcome.
