How to Migrate

Migrating from using Skype for Business Online Connector to Teams PowerShell module is easy and simple. The below steps explain how to do this migration.

  1. Install the latest Teams PowerShell module. For steps, see Install Microsoft Teams PowerShell.

  2. Uninstall Skype For Business Online Connector. To uninstall, in Control Panel, go to Programs and Features, select Skype for Business Online, Windows PowerShell Module, and then select Uninstall.

  3. In your PowerShell scripts, change the module name that's referenced in Import-Module from

    SkypeOnlineConnector or LyncOnlineConnector to MicrosoftTeams.

    For example, change Import-Module -Name SkypeOnlineConnector to Import-Module -Name MicrosoftTeams.

  4. When using Teams PowerShell Module 2.0 or later, update your scripts that refers New-CsOnlineSession to Connect-MicrosoftTeams. Import-PsSession is no longer required to establish a Skype for Business Online Remote PowerShell Session.

       # When using the Skype for Business online connector

     # Establishing a session
     Import-Module SkypeOnlineConnector [LyncOnlineConnector]
     $credential = Get-Credential
     $SkypeSession = New-CsOnlineSession -Credential $credential
     Import-Session $SkypeSession

     # Example getting tenant details
     Get-csTenant

     # Disconnecting and closing the Session 
     Get-PsSession $SkypeSession | Remove-PsSession

   # When using Teams PowerShell Module 2.0 or later

     # Establishing a session
     Import-Module MicrosoftTeams
     $credential = Get-Credential
     Connect-MicrosoftTeams -Credential $credential

     # Example getting tenant details
     Get-csTenant

     # Disconnecting and closing the Session  
     Disconnect-MicrosoftTeams
