Creating PowerShell Script for auto login in O365 (MS Teams) using MFA - Admin side

AMaDAC 81

The idea is to create a script to automatically login to MS Teams and whenever or someone changes the settings in meeting policy it will triggered an alert or email and also run the script to revert back the changes.

P.S I'm using MFA and please if know a forum or link it will be a great help.

Please use below script for auto login to teams.

$username = "<username>"
$passwd = "<password>"
$secpasswd = ConvertTo-SecureString -String $passwd -AsPlainText -Force
$cred = New-Object Management.Automation.PSCredential ($username, $secpasswd)
Connect-MicrosoftTeams -Credential $cred

For meeting policy change alerts you can create Alert in audit logs. This is available in azure security and compliance. you can choose recipient email address.

Is this the same with O365 Security and Compliance?

I have checked that and not able to see the option to send an alert whenever changes the settings in Web console or MS Teams Admin center.

Audit data is only visible in the audit log if auditing is turned on.
It can take up to 30 minutes or up to 24 hours after an event occurs for the corresponding audit log record to be returned in the results of an audit log search.

please go through below links to enable audit log for teams.

Hi,
I tried above mentioned script with our credentials with domain but i am getting below mentioned error while running.

Connect-MicrosoftTeams : One or more errors occurred.: AADSTS50076: Due to a configuration change made by your administrator, or because you
moved to a new location, you must use multi-factor authentication to access '00000002-0000-0000-c000-000000000000'.

I need to check who are all having Teams app access outside the organizations against the policy. Please kindly help us to achieve this.

Thanking you.

Hi @Rich Matheisen ,

Sorry, I did not find such scripts to convert back the settings for Teams admin center.

For Teams client, if you want to login automatically, you should click “yes” to store the password for your account when you see the following page:

This is for the web console access only and not apply to PowerShell.
I guess PowerShell session will last only 12 hours and needs to login again? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

The goal is to maintained the desired settings in MS Teams.

the script will be added to Task scheduler that runs every hour to maintain the current settings.

I guess I need to totally by pass the MFA by creating conditional policy in azure.

BTW, can you please refer a website or documentation that can lead me to this idea.
