I found the Microsoft.Graph.Authentication was at version 1.9.6, I was able to update to 1.15.0 and am now getting the below error: Exporting Microsoft 365 configuration for Components: AADApplication

Authentication methods specified:

• Service Principal with Application Secret

Get-MgOrganization_List1: Method not found: 'System.Net.Http.HttpClient Microsoft.Graph.PowerShell.Authentication.Helpers.HttpHelpers.GetGraphHttpClient(System.Management.Automation.InvocationInfo, Microsoft.Graph.PowerShell.Authentication.IAuthContext)'.

Could you run Update-M365DSCDependencies and Uninstall-M365DSCOutdatedDependencies

[bstets1]

Thank you Andi for your response, I ran both of those commands, the update scanned but did not update any dependencies, I did run that after I had first updated to 1.22.1102.1. The Uninstall did remove a bunch of Modules, which re-running the Export-M365DSCConfiguration did login and work this time, but it also now gave me this: New version of {Microsoft.Graph.Applications} is available {1.15.0} New version of {Microsoft.Graph.Authentication} is available {1.15.0} New version of {Microsoft.Graph.DeviceManagement} is available {1.15.0} New version of {Microsoft.Graph.DeviceManagement.Administration} is available {1.15.0} New version of {Microsoft.Graph.DeviceManagement.Enrolment} is available {1.15.0} New version of {Microsoft.Graph.Devices.CorporateManagement} is available {1.15.0} New version of {Microsoft.Graph.Groups} is available {1.15.0} New version of {Microsoft.Graph.Identity.DirectoryManagement} is available {1.15.0} New version of {Microsoft.Graph.Identity.Governance} is available {1.15.0} New version of {Microsoft.Graph.Identity.SignIns} is available {1.15.0} New version of {Microsoft.Graph.Planner} is available {1.15.0} New version of {Microsoft.Graph.Teams} is available {1.15.0} New version of {Microsoft.Graph.Users} is available {1.15.0} New version of {Microsoft.Graph.Users.Actions} is available {1.15.0} New version of {MSCloudLoginAssistant} is available {1.0.97}

Running the Update-M365DSCDependencies command again did not update any thing further

Thank you for the additional information and confirmation, that it’s working now. I’ll look into the confusion messages about newer modules being available. Those are not part of your installed version of microsoft365dsc.
