Description

If no credentials have been specified, and the CurrentCredentials parameter has not been specified, you will be prompted for credentials.

Examples

------------------EXAMPLE 1------------------

Connect-PnPOnline -Url https://contoso.sharepoint.com

This will prompt for username and password and creates a context for the other PowerShell commands to use. When a generic credential is added to the Windows Credential Manager with https://contoso.sharepoint.com, PowerShell will not prompt for username and password.

------------------EXAMPLE 2------------------

Connect-PnPOnline -Url https://contoso.sharepoint.com -Credentials (Get-Credential)

This will prompt for username and password and creates a context for the other PowerShell commands to use.

------------------EXAMPLE 3------------------

Connect-PnPOnline -Url http://yourlocalserver -CurrentCredentials

This will use the current user credentials and connects to the server specified by the Url parameter.

------------------EXAMPLE 4------------------

Connect-PnPOnline -Url http://yourlocalserver -Credentials 'O365Creds'

This will use credentials from the Windows Credential Manager, as defined by the label 'O365Creds'.

------------------EXAMPLE 5------------------

Connect-PnPOnline -Url http://yourlocalserver -Credentials (Get-Credential) -UseAdfs

This will prompt for username and password and creates a context using ADFS to authenticate.

------------------EXAMPLE 6------------------

Connect-PnPOnline -Url http://yourlocalserver -UseAdfsCert

This will enable you to select a certificate to create a context using ADFS to authenticate.

------------------EXAMPLE 7------------------

Connect-PnPOnline -Url https://yourserver -Credentials (Get-Credential) -CreateDrive
cd SPO:\\
dir

This will prompt you for credentials and creates a context for the other PowerShell commands to use. It will also create a SPO:\ drive you can use to navigate around the site

------------------EXAMPLE 8------------------

Connect-PnPOnline -Url https://yourserver -Credentials (Get-Credential) -AuthenticationMode FormsAuthentication

This will prompt you for credentials and creates a context for the other PowerShell commands to use. It assumes your server is configured for Forms Based Authentication (FBA)

------------------EXAMPLE 9------------------

Connect-PnPOnline -Url https://contoso.sharepoint.de -AppId 344b8aab-389c-4e4a-8fa1-4c1ae2c0a60d -AppSecret a3f3faf33f3awf3a3sfs3f3ss3f4f4a3fawfas3ffsrrffssfd -AzureEnvironment Germany

This will authenticate you to the German Azure environment using the German Azure endpoints for authentication

------------------EXAMPLE 10------------------

Connect-PnPOnline -Url https://contoso.sharepoint.com -SPOManagementShell

This will authenticate you using the SharePoint Online Management Shell application

------------------EXAMPLE 11------------------

Connect-PnPOnline -Url https://contoso.sharepoint.com -PnPO365ManagementShell

This will authenticate you using the PnP O365 Management Shell Multi-Tenant application. A browser window will have to be opened where you have to enter a code that is shown in your PowerShell window.

------------------EXAMPLE 12------------------

Connect-PnPOnline -Url https://contoso.sharepoint.com -PnPO365ManagementShell -LaunchBrowser

This will authenticate you using the PnP O365 Management Shell Multi-Tenant application. A browser window will automatically open and the code you need to enter will be automatically copied to your clipboard.

------------------EXAMPLE 13------------------

Connect-PnPOnline -Url https://contoso.sharepoint.com -AccessToken $myaccesstoken

This will authenticate you using the provided access token

------------------EXAMPLE 14------------------

Connect-PnPOnline -Scopes "Mail.Read","Files.Read"

Connects to Azure AD and gets and OAuth 2.0 Access Token to consume the Microsoft Graph API including the declared permission scopes. The available permission scopes are defined at the following URL: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/permissions-reference

------------------EXAMPLE 15------------------

Connect-PnPOnline -AppId '<id>' -AppSecret '<secret>' -AADDomain 'contoso.onmicrosoft.com'

Connects to the Microsoft Graph API using application permissions via an app's declared permission scopes. See https://github.com/SharePoint/PnP-PowerShell/tree/master/Samples/Graph.ConnectUsingAppPermissions for a sample on how to get started.

------------------EXAMPLE 16------------------

certutil.exe -csp 'Microsoft Enhanced RSA and AES Cryptographic Provider' -v -p 'password' -importpfx -user c:\HighTrust.pfx NoRoot
Connect-PnPOnline -Url https://yourserver -ClientId <id> -HighTrustCertificate (Get-Item Cert:\CurrentUser\My\<thumbprint>)

Connect to an on-premises SharePoint environment using a high trust certificate, stored in the Personal certificate store of the current user.

------------------EXAMPLE 17------------------

Connect-PnPOnline -Url https://contoso.sharepoint.com -ClientId '<id>' -Tenant 'contoso.onmicrosoft.com' -CertificatePath c:\absolute-path\to\pnp.pfx -CertificatePassword <if needed>

Connects to SharePoint using app-only tokens via an app's declared permission scopes. See https://github.com/SharePoint/PnP-PowerShell/tree/master/Samples/SharePoint.ConnectUsingAppPermissions for a sample on how to get started.

------------------EXAMPLE 18------------------
