Hi @sns1 ,

Per my test, I am not able to reproduce your issue in my end:

However I have found a similar thread for your reference:
Pnp error when connect-pnponline

As mentioned, you have to connect with Connect-PnPOnline -Url <url> -PnPManagementShell and then you will receive a code to enter on https://microsoft.com/devicelogin, where you will need to login with credentials for an account that must have the Application Admin role assigned to them in the Admin Center, and then you can consent to give PnP Management Shell access to your tenant.

After that, you should be able to login with Connect-PnPOnline -Url <url> again.

See this response https://github.com/pnp/sp-starter-kit/issues/436#issuecomment-694936145
