The GUI in Office365 and Azure is great but sometimes we need to dig deeper.
I ran into some issues with a Resource mailbox and had to do some troubleshooting.
I always start with turning off Execution Policy, because frankly it usually screws up what I’m trying to do.
Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass
This will allow you to run all kinds of Powershell-scripts, it’s like turning off UAC for your shell (with caution!).
Then start a regular Powershell in elevated mode and write the following:
$LiveCred = Get-Credential $Session = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange -ConnectionUri https://ps.outlook.com/powershell/ -Credential $LiveCred -Authentication Basic -AllowRedirection Import-PSSession $Session
The console will load the modules and commands necessary, so you won’t have to do it manually.
