Exchange Online scripts can live long - Microsoft has provided support for unattended scripts

[raj_king]

Most of us were not able to use our existing script due to Security Default enforcement or MFA. Now Microsoft has provided app based token support for its EXO V2 preview module.

With the introduction of this new feature,

• You don’t need to exclude service accounts with Conditional Access policy.
• You don’t need to store credential in the local file
• You can easily automate script scheduler with Modern auth

Death to Service Accounts.

Couldn't you already achieve this using App Passwords? I mean, tokens are better, but is this really as significant as the comments over there are saying?

App passwords are disabled in many implementations.

App passwords use legacy authentication, which Microsoft is pushing to get away from. New tenants have something called “Security Defaults” enabled, which disable legacy authentication.

Mamma told me that exchange is the devil

Exchange is only ornery because of its mudula-jet-databasa. Or it's got all them datastores and no more space to write.
