PowerShell import module function cannot import more than 4096 modules and Microsoft.Graph has 4096+ modules, how to solve this?

Question

I am trying to install Microsoft.Graph modules with PowerShell on an offline Windows 2019 server.

I have copied the 39 modules of Microsoft.graph from my Internet-connected pc to C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\ on my offline server.

then I try to import those modules with the following command:

Import-Module -Name Microsoft.Graph

I have PSVersion 5.1.17763.5458 installed on my Windows 2019 server.

I have the folowwing error:

PS C:\Users\username> Import-Module -Name Microsoft.Graph

Import-Module : Function Get-MgEntitlementManagementResourceRoleScopeRoleResourceScope cannot be created because

function capacity 4096 has been exceeded for this scope.

Answer 2

Hi JUHEL Freddy,

You can manually change values of the variables $MaximumFunctionCount and $MaximumVariableCount

$MaximumVariableCount = 10000

$MaximumFunctionCount = 10000

Answer 3

thanks

it works fine

Answer 4

I also have the same issue. I set the $MaximumVariableCount = 10000 and the $MaximumFunctionCount = 10000 but still get the same error. I am on version 5.1.22621.4249 installed on Windows 11.
