Hi @Aase Nomad

Of course, you can use an unattended daemon, which requires connecting to MS graph using the application's client id and certificate name.

Connect-MgGraph -ClientID YOUR_APP_ID -TenantId YOUR_TENANT_ID -CertificateName YOUR_CERT_SUBJECT

Hi @Aase Nomad

This command uses the device code flow by default, and when you run this command it prompts you to go to the web page to log in with the device code. Next you just need to copy the device login link to the browser and enter the device code, after which you will be redirected to the user login page. Only after the user is logged in will you receive: "Welcome To Microsoft Graph!" message prompt.

You can use the "app-only access" method: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/powershell/app-only?tabs=azure-portal
