Microsoft has extended the deprecation date for the Azure AD license management cmdlets to March 31, 2023. After that time, the cmdlets won't work. The strong recommendation is to replace all the old Azure AD and MSOL license management cmdlets in scripts with Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK cmdlets or Graph API requests.

Ten years ago, Microsoft bought Yammer to get into the world of enterprise social networking. It was a big thing at the time, but less so now, and Yammer's role inside Microsoft 365 is uncertain in the minds of many.
