Teams released a new version of their PowerShell module on July 19. The new module contains WAM support and cmdlets to limit federated chat for specific users and tenants. The new controls are welcome, but it’s a sad state of affairs that to configure the settings you must install a new version of a module that doesn’t work so well alongside other Microsoft 365 modules.

The Web Account Manager (WAM) authentication broker becomes the default method for handling interactive Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK connections from V2.34 onwards. The rapid release of a new version (V2.33 appeared 12 days beforehand) is usually a sign of a big problem, but in this case the reason is more likely to be a security vulnerability that’s just come to light. We’ll find out after the holidays.
