In today’s rapidly evolving IT ecosystem, effective role management is key. This is especially true for large organisations where managing roles for individual users can quickly become overwhelming. For businesses that leverage Microsoft Azure, there are robust tools at hand that can dramatically simplify and automate these intricate tasks. Among these tools, PowerShell in conjunction with Microsoft Graph stands out for its administrative efficiency.
In this blog post, we’re going to guide you through the process of crafting a PowerShell script that utilises Microsoft Graph to identify a specific Azure AD group and remove all roles assigned directly to all group members. Let’s get started!
Preparations
Before we dive in, there are a few prerequisites to note. Firstly, ensure that you have the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK installed. If not, use the Install-Module -Name Microsoft.Graph command in your PowerShell to add it.
Next, establish a connection to Microsoft Graph by using the Connect-MgGraph cmdlet.
Finally, remember to tread carefully when modifying user permissions. Scripts that implement bulk changes can be particularly powerful, but also potentially disruptive if not properly managed. It’s always wise to run tests with a small number of users before applying changes across an entire group.
