The AzureAD module is planned for deprecation and is is superseded by Microsoft_Graph.
The AzureAD module is used to connect to Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) and run commands against objects in Entra ID (Users, Groups, etc).
The AzureAD module only works in Windows PowerShell, and will generate errors if you try to use it in PowerShell Core
Prerequisites
Install
Before you can connect to Entra ID for the first time on a machine, you will need to install the module. Here is the command to install it:
Install-Module -Name AzureADUpdate
Occasionally, Microsoft will update the module, in that case, you can use the following command to update to the latest version of the module
Update-Module -Name AzureADImport
Normally, you should not need to import it, it should import automatically when you run commands, but if you get an error about the command missing, you can try importing the module.
Import-Module -Name AzureADIf you want to use the commands in PowerShell Core on a Windows machine, you need to tell it to load the module in Windows PowerShell.
Import-Module -Name AzureAD -UseWindowsPowerShellNote, you will have to have installed the module in Windows PowerShell previously for it to load it.
