Prerequisites for configuring a Office 365 account in ADManager Plus

Before you add a Microsoft 365 tenant in ADManager Plus, ensure that:

• You have Microsoft .NET version 4.8 and PowerShell version 5.1 installed.
• The MSOnline PowerShell module for Azure Active Directory is installed on the machine where ADManager Plus is installed.
• Your firewall settings allow access to these domains.
• The Microsoft 365 tenant account that is to be configured in ADManager Plus must have the global admin or user administrator privileges.
• The 64-bit version of the product must be installed.

Note: The Microsoft Graph API does not provide functionality for executing the MFA settings management action and editing properties of objects using management templates in ADManager Plus. Therefore, MSOnline PowerShell module is utilized to perform these tasks.
