Moving Group-Based Licensing to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center can create some challenges. Luckily there is a way to avoid this. In this blog, we explain how to execute Group-Based License swaps with the help of the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK.
The room mailbox statistics script has proven to be a popular script downloaded and used by many to analyze the usage patterns of room mailboxes.

All of which brought me to rewrite the script using the Graph SDK.
Users receive all manner of notification messages from different sources. These messages are of no great value after a few days, so here's a script to find and remove messages to clean up mailboxes. All written using cmdlets from the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK.
Three years ago, we described how to create organizational contacts in user mailboxes with Graph API requests.
