Installing the Windows Azure AD Module for Windows PowerShell

The Windows Azure Active Directory Module for Windows PowerShell cmdlets can be used to accomplish many Windows Azure AD tenant-based administrative tasks such as user management, domain management and for configuring single sign-on (see Manage Azure AD using Windows PowerShell).

The Coveo Office 365 security provider needed by the SharePoint connector when indexing SharePoint Online content uses the Get-MsolGroupMember cmdlet to list users and groups that are members of a specific Office 365 security group (see Get-MsolGroupMember). In this case, you must install the Windows Azure Active Directory Module on your Coveo Master server.

To install the Windows Azure AD Module for Windows PowerShell

  1. Using an administrator account, connect to the Coveo Master server.

  2. Referring to the Microsoft documentation:

    1. Ensure that your Coveo Master server meets the following Windows Azure AD Module for Windows PowerShell requirements:

      • Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows Server 2008 R2, or Windows Server 2012.

      • Microsoft .NET Framework 3.51 feature.

    2. Download and install the appropriate Microsoft Online Services Sign-In Assistant version for your operating system (see Microsoft Online Services Sign-In Assistant for IT Professionals RTW).

  3. Install the Windows Azure Active Directory Module for Windows PowerShell (see Install the Windows Azure AD Module).

  4. Connect to Windows Azure AD by running the PowerShell command import-module MSOnline (see Connect to Windows Azure AD).

What's Next?

When you configure the Office 365 security provider, ensure that the C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules\MSOnline\MSOnline.psd1 file is available on the Coveo Master server and referenced in the Windows Azure Active Directory Module for Windows PowerShell parameter (see Creating an Office 365 Security Provider for SharePoint Online).
