Let’s say you need to download all the devices in your tenant and you have over 1 million devices.
At first you try running this command and you increase the page size to 999 instead of the default 100 to make it go faster.
It runs for a long time but errors out midway ☹️

ICYMI We introduced a new guest permission level in Azure AD that restricts what guests can view about other directory objects in your tenant. 🧵👇🏾

Check out this 5 minute demo from @CoryKnox on how to set the PSDefault parameters in #PowerShell. He gives three quick examples of how setting custom parameters can be helpful. @rtpsug

Cross-Tenant Access Controls (CTAC) is now (FINALLY!) available for you to use! Today with CTAC you can e.g. trust and accept inbound MFA claims and therefore prevent double MFA prompts, and device state from external trusted devices. COOL!

I created a new GitHub repo with all the materials for my various courses and crams and in the main readme I link to the playlists, crams, and artifacts. As always zero adverts or interruptions.

I don't make new year's resolutions. I make goals as needed and continually work towards them.

I wrote my first #golang article for @docsmsft with less than 3 weeks of experience. Go hired at @StackOverflow with less than 6 months of Azure experience. And joined @Microsoft with zero formal technical writing training.
Mountains always look bigger on the climb up.

I've been asked a lot of times about my recommended path for learning Azure. I've created a new site:
learn.onboardtoazure.com
This just provides a curated path of my videos, MS Learn and some other free resources.
youtu.be/fi6yuyX6xAY introduces the site.
#azure #cloud

Did you know that you can get a free M365 E5 subscription with 25 user licenses to learn, create automation, and develop applications?
I know most folks never get the chance to admin this stuff, so sign up now, and let's walk through this together :)

[New blog post] Authenticating to Microsoft Graph with #PowerShell (2021).
Graph authentication is boring, so I'm just going to update this once a year with any changes in the space.
Share this with people who want to learn how to work with Graph!

Ok #Powershell twitter, I made a thing:
explainpowershell.com
It will have more explanations for language elements added, and more modules too in the coming days and weeks.
Please provide feedback through github or twitter (links in top right corner)
#ExplainPowerShell
Current progress: I'm at 71% explanation coverage for all PowerShell language elements
Is that good enough to get the domain up yet?

There are 2 things that affect your success:
1) What you bring to the table.
2) The table.
This is one of the reasons why successful people sometimes fail when they change companies.
It is a different table.
