Office 365 – Create PowerShell Session is failed using OAuth when trying to connect to Exchange Online PowerShell using Connect-ExoPSSession

16 Mar

For some time now I’ve been using the Microsoft Exchange Online Powershell Module that supports Azure multi-factor authentication (MFA)  , but for an unknown reason it stopped working

When trying to connect to Exchange Online PowerShell using the code below with a global administrator account, I was getting an access denied error:

Connect-EXOPSSession -UserPrincipalName admin.bjorn@mydomain.nl
New-ExoPSSession : Create PowerShell Session is failed using OAuth
At C:\users\admin\adppdata\local\Apps\2.0\84VE2AT5.PKO\HHYLAA32.DC7\micr..tion_c3bce3770c238a49_0010.0000_90fa60bba125a33a\CreateExoPSSession.ps1:179 char:22
+ ... PSSession = New-ExoPSSession -UserPrincipalName $UserPrincialName -C ...
+
    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:) [New-ExoPSSession], Exception
    + FullyqualifiedErrorID : System.Exception,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.ExoPowerShellSnapin.NewExoPSSession

For me the solution was to install the Microsoft Exchange Online Powershell Module through Programs and then reinstalling it.
