Add organization with Teams chats enabled using PowerShell

[chrisflyckelen]

Hey guys,

i'm struggling to add an organization via PowerShell to VBO. Maybe someone has solved this before.

What I'm trying to achieve is that Teams chats are enabled after adding the organization. Related to the helpcenter it is necessary to create Azure AD application upfront and the script configures this application as needed.
My main issue is converting the data type of the AppGuid to the data type the Veeam Cmdlet expects. I've tried several ways to do this. That's my last attempt:

Code: Select all

Import-Module "C:\Program Files\Veeam\Backup365\Veeam.Archiver.PowerShell\Veeam.Archiver.PowerShell.psd1"

$debnr = Read-Host "Enter customer's debtor no (ktxxxxxxxx)" 
$securepassword = Read-Host "Enter your password" -AsSecureString
$certname = "CRT-$debnr-pcoM365BaaS"

#Upfront creation an AzureAD application
Connect-AzureAD

New-AzureADApplication -DisplayName "pco-M365BaaS"

$AzADApp = Get-AzureADApplication -SearchString "pco-M365BaaS" | Select-Object -ExpandProperty AppID
$AzADAppGuid = [System.Guid]$AzADApp

#Creation of a new self-signed certificate
$cert = New-SelfSignedCertificate -Subject "CN=$certname" -CertStoreLocation "Cert:\LocalMachine\My" -KeyExportPolicy Exportable -KeySpec Signature -KeyLength 2048 -KeyAlgorithm RSA -HashAlgorithm SHA256
Export-PfxCertificate -Cert $cert -FilePath "C:\Certificates\$certname.pfx" -Password $securepassword  

$newapp = New-VBOOffice365ApplicationOnlyConnectionSettings -ApplicationCertificatePath "C:\Certificates\$certname.pfx" -ApplicationCertificatePassword $securepassword -ApplicationId $AzADAppGuid -ConfigureApplication
Add-VBOOrganization -Office365ExchangeConnectionsSettings $newapp -Office365SharePointConnectionsSettings $newapp -EnableTeamsChats

May I ask for assistance?

Kind regards,
Christian

Hi Christian

Why are you not just using the value of the property "AppID"? I don't understand the part where you try to convert the AppID ([System.Guid]$AzADApp).

This works for me:

Code: Select all

Import-Module "C:\Program Files\Veeam\Backup365\Veeam.Archiver.PowerShell\Veeam.Archiver.PowerShell.psd1"

$debnr = Read-Host "Enter customer's debtor no (ktxxxxxxxx)" 
$securepassword = Read-Host "Enter your password" -AsSecureString
$certname = "CRT-$debnr-pcoM365BaaS"

#Upfront creation an AzureAD application
Connect-AzureAD

New-AzureADApplication -DisplayName "pco-M365BaaS"

$AzADApp = Get-AzureADApplication -SearchString "pco-M365BaaS" | Select-Object -ExpandProperty AppID

#Creation of a new self-signed certificate
$cert = New-SelfSignedCertificate -Subject "CN=$certname" -CertStoreLocation "Cert:\LocalMachine\My" -KeyExportPolicy Exportable -KeySpec Signature -KeyLength 2048 -KeyAlgorithm RSA -HashAlgorithm SHA256
Export-PfxCertificate -Cert $cert -FilePath "C:\Certificates\$certname.pfx" -Password $securepassword  

$newapp = New-VBOOffice365ApplicationOnlyConnectionSettings -ApplicationCertificatePath "C:\Certificates\$certname.pfx" -ApplicationCertificatePassword $securepassword -ApplicationId $AzADApp -ConfigureApplication
Add-VBOOrganization -Office365ExchangeConnectionsSettings $newapp -Office365SharePointConnectionsSettings $newapp -EnableTeamsChats

Do you get an error message when running your code? Is it possible that your variable $AzADApp has more than one value? If you use -searchstring, you get all values starting with that string. Multiple values for the AppID are not allowed for New-VBOOffice365ApplicationOnlyConnectionSettings.



Best,

Update:
This code filters with where-object. It only selects one application where the display name matches the provided value:

Code: Select all

Import-Module "C:\Program Files\Veeam\Backup365\Veeam.Archiver.PowerShell\Veeam.Archiver.PowerShell.psd1"

$debnr = Read-Host "Enter customer's debtor no (ktxxxxxxxx)" 
$securepassword = Read-Host "Enter your password" -AsSecureString
$certname = "CRT-$debnr-pcoM365BaaS"

#Upfront creation an AzureAD application
Connect-AzureAD

New-AzureADApplication -DisplayName "pco-M365BaaS"

$AzADApp = (Get-AzureADApplication | Where-Object {$_.DisplayName -eq "pco-M365BaaS"}).appid

#Creation of a new self-signed certificate
$cert = New-SelfSignedCertificate -Subject "CN=$certname" -CertStoreLocation "Cert:\LocalMachine\My" -KeyExportPolicy Exportable -KeySpec Signature -KeyLength 2048 -KeyAlgorithm RSA -HashAlgorithm SHA256
Export-PfxCertificate -Cert $cert -FilePath "C:\Certificates\$certname.pfx" -Password $securepassword  

$newapp = New-VBOOffice365ApplicationOnlyConnectionSettings -ApplicationCertificatePath "C:\Certificates\$certname.pfx" -ApplicationCertificatePassword $securepassword -ApplicationId $AzADApp -ConfigureApplication
Add-VBOOrganization -Office365ExchangeConnectionsSettings $newapp -Office365SharePointConnectionsSettings $newapp -EnableTeamsChats
