orphaned publicfolder object in Azure AD

Question

Hi Community, I have a significant problem after a public folder migration to EXO.

Here is a brief description of the situation: I have an orphaned Public Folder identity in Azure AD, which I can query via Powershell using Get-MsolDirSyncProvisioningError -ErrorCategory PropertyConflict .

The orphaned Public Folder identity is displayed with

ObjectType is PublicFolder
LastDirSyncTime no Status
ImmuntableID and ObjectID exist

What I want to do: I want to migrate the contents of a Public Folder to a SharedMailbox and then pivot the ProxyAddresses to the SharedMailbox.

Here's the problem: I can't edit or delete the orphaned Public Folder identity in Azure AD. All solutions I find are acting on other orphaned objects and the workloads fails.

I am open to any solution approach - sorry for my english, i'm not a native speaker :)
