As legacy PowerShell modules like AzureAD and MSOnline retire in April 2025, Microsoft introduces new modules: Microsoft.Graph and Microsoft.Entra. Microsoft.Graph is a powerful, unified module designed for managing various Microsoft 365 services, focusing on secure authentication and requiring explicit permissions. In contrast, Microsoft.Entra targets solely Entra ID management, offering simpler authentication and an easier transition for users familiar with AzureAD. Microsoft.Graph replaces multiple legacy modules, while Microsoft.Entra primarily replaces AzureAD. Organizations should transition to these new modules to ensure compatibility and security, with Microsoft.Graph suggested for broader service management and Microsoft.Entra for focused identity management.
