In what order do you authenticate in the runbook?

I think I had a similar issue previously but recently this has been working ok for me recently.

[blackadi]

@titlerequired first connecting to MSGraph via this cmdlet Connect-MgGraph -AccessToken ($oAuthReq.access_token | ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText -Force) -NoWelcome then Import-Module ExchangeOnlineManagement

[titlerequired]

You still need to use Connect-ExchangeOnline

@blackadi

You can use PowerShell 7.2 in Azure Automation.

Same issue here (and yes I'm using Connect-ExchangeOnline). Latest version (I jumped to 2.20.0 from 2.16.0) appears to completely break coexistence between these two and should be fixed immediately. I've had to roll back due to this bug.

Workaround: First Connect-MgGraph and then Connect-ExchangeOnline works.
The other way round does not work.

The actual error occurs while loading Microsoft.Graph.Authentication:
Import-Module : Could not load file or assembly 'file:///C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\ExchangeOnlineManagement\3.5.1\netFramework\Azure.Core.dll' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

Hello guys. Please update to the latest Microsoft.Graph PowerShell SDK and let us know if you are still experiencing the same issue. A similar issue has been logged here #2803

[secretworkpersona]

Latest version (2.21.0) does not resolve the issue for me.

@timayabi2020 This issue is still active and present in current versions. Would you like yet another issue opened, or can we have this one reopened as it is not, in fact, completed.

I want to advise that this issue is still occurring for me as well, but not always consistently. It's hard to pin down specific triggers, but I usually end up reinstalling graph and eom.
