If you're still scripting against AzureAD or MSOnline, you have just 4 days left.

Microsoft has officially confirmed the retirement schedule:

MSOnline is retiring on 30th March 2025
AzureAD follows on 30th June 2025

This isn’t just a date on the calendar. If you’ve been relying on either module, you already know the shift to Microsoft Graph PowerShell isn’t just a syntax change,it’s a complete rework of how identity automation is done.

Why This Matters

These modules have been on borrowed time for a while. They don’t support modern Microsoft Entra capabilities, lack granular permission handling, and don’t align with how identity is managed in Microsoft 365 today.

Still, they’re everywhere; used in scripts, automation workflows, and legacy onboarding processes across the enterprise. That ubiquity is exactly what makes this transition urgent.

In an environment shaped by least privilege, conditional access, and dynamic identity governance, holding onto outdated tools like these puts your organisation at risk.

What You Should Do Right Now

✅ Audit your scripts
Search for anything using Connect-AzureAD, Get-MsolUser, or similar commands. Flag them for review.

✅ Learn Microsoft Graph PowerShell
Yes, it’s different. Yes, it’s more verbose. But it’s the future, and the sooner you embrace it, the smoother your migration will be.

✅ Use the migration guides
This isn’t a drop-in replacement. Take advantage of Microsoft’s migration guidance to help translate existing scripts to Graph equivalents.

✅ Modernise authentication flows
Graph operates with app-only and delegated permissions. If you’re still relying on legacy credential-based methods, now’s the time to rethink your approach.

A Bit of Real Talk

This isn’t something you can push to next quarter. It’s a hard stop.

If your joiner/leaver automation breaks this weekend, or your admin team loses visibility into MFA status because a script fails on Monday, there’s no one else to blame.

The tools exist. The documentation is solid. And yes, you still have time but not much.

Start small. Pick one script. Migrate it. Learn what works and what doesn’t. Work through the friction now while you’ve still got room to breathe.

By the end of this week, MSOnline will be history.
And by the middle of the year, AzureAD will follow.
