Hi, I am looking for a way to set the lockout policy settings in Azure using Powershell (preferably Microsoft Graph API or azure cli). The specific settings I want to export with Powershell are 'Lockout threshold' and 'Lockout duration in seconds' that can be found in the Azure portal at Home > Security > Authentication Methods > Password Protection.
