Updates for the new Azure Active Directory V2 PowerShell module

User and group account maintenance is an important part of Office 365 administration. For Office 365 PowerShell, the Windows Azure Active Directory Module for Windows PowerShell has been available for years. This module contains cmdlets to connect and to manage user accounts, groups, and licenses.

More recently, the Azure Active Directory (AD) product team has been hard at work updating and releasing an Azure Active Directory V2 PowerShell module, which will eventually replace the Windows Azure Active Directory Module for Windows PowerShell when fully functional.

To help prepare for that eventuality, the following articles have been updated to use the Azure Active Directory V2 PowerShell module as an alternative:

Other Office 365 PowerShell articles, such as those that explain how to manage licenses, will be updated when the Azure Active Directory V2 PowerShell module supports Office 365 licenses and services.

In the meantime, you should start using the new Azure Active Directory V2 PowerShell module for your user and group account maintenance whenever you can.
