Autodiscover service couldn't be located error (MergeMailboxFolder) #9

I have used the script in the past to move emails from archive to inbox in the past along with a batching script to perform the action on multiple accounts in the past. I tried again today and getting the following errors using the script:

The mailbox@contoso.com is the account that we are trying to move emails from archive to inbox, and administrator.O365 is the account that has full access to this mailbox.

PS C:\ArchiveMerge>> .\Merge-MailboxFolder.ps1 -SourceMailbox mailbox@contoso.com -SourceArchive -TargetMailbox
 mailbox@contoso.com -ProcessSubfolders -MergeFolderList @{"WellKnownFolderName.Inbox"= "Inbox"} -AllowInsecureRedi
rection -Verbose -Credential (Get-Credential)

cmdlet Get-Credential at command pipeline position 1

The last version I was using was 1.1.5 and I believe it still worked about 2 months ago. Any assistance in finding the issue would be appreciated. I am not very well versed in PS scripting.

Thank you for the help and the script.

Autodiscover is failing here, which implies that either it isn't set up correctly or the credentials are wrong. For Office 365, you can bypass autodiscover completely as it isn't required - just use the -Office365 parameter to specify the mailbox is in Office 365.
