An IT Automation blog. PowerShell, Linux, and more. By Ryan Milne
In Part 4, we created our basic Get-MITUser function, which accepts a single $Identity parameter, and will obtain both the MsolUser and Mailbox (assuming they exist). Now it’s time to test with some real fake data – in particular we…

In the previous part, we explored how we can handle the errors from Get-MsolUser as part of our larger Get-MITUser function. We would hope we could handle Get-Mailbox in the same way.
So a big part of our all-in-one Get-User cmdlet Get-MITUser, is that it needs to try obtaining both the MsolUser from Office 365, and the Mailbox from Exchange Online. Imagine this first as a manual process with “john@example.com”. It would…
