Usage

Use the login command to start the Device Code login flow to authenticate with your Microsoft 365 tenant.

m365 login

On your first login you will be asked to consent to several permissions that the PnP Management Shell multi-tenant app requires for the commands to work successfully against your tenant. If you want to create your own identity to use with the CLI, refer to the Using your own Azure AD Identity guide.

For alternative authentication methods and usage, refer to the login command documentation

List all commands using the global --help option.

m365 --help

Get command information and example usage using the global --help option.

m365 spo site get --help

Execute a command and output response as JSON.
