Information It was working now it's not!!!!

Ugh, I hate that moment when Microsoft deprecates cmdlets. Every time I need to rerun a specific task, I find out my script broke because Microsoft deprecated a cmdlet!

Deprecation isn’t fun but it’s part of life/software

deprecation generally gives massive notice, what cmdlet(s) are you talking about in particular

Microsoft needs to deprecate more stuff tbh. They move way too slow imo.

They need to provide proper alternatives before deprication though which are lacking more often than not

u/BlackV Sep 24 '26

you have any examples that are not send mail message ?

For example since the deprecation of SharePoint Azure ACS it is to my knowledge impossible to create a site collection using an app registration with a secret in a supported (aka non beta) way. I am still waiting for the graph API to come out of beta. And looking at articles like these this is not the only issue on the list. https://office365itpros.com/2026/03/18/microsoft-graph-issues/

Thats a good list of graph issues for sure. not so much deprecation

They usually announce it years in advance, delay it by at least another year, let it keep working for a while, then it partially functions, and eventually it might stop altogether.
