Troubleshooting errors that occur while adding Microsoft 365 monitor (For versions upto 16300)

Troubleshooting errors that occur while adding Microsoft 365 monitor (For versions upto 16300)

Prerequisites: 

Ensure that you have met all the prerequisites for the Microsoft 365 monitor.
From Applications Manager version 16300 onwards, Microsoft 365 monitor will use Microsoft Graph API as the primary mode of data collection. 
We have migrated from PowerShell to Graph API as Microsoft 365 PowerShell commands were taking more time to execute for huge resources and needed Administrative user privileges to execute the commands. Microsoft provides only archived data in the Graph API. To monitor live data, use the PowerShell mode considering the user privileges and the time taken to fetch huge resources.
For REST API related common errors in Applications Manager from version 16310, refer this KB.

How to fix "Unable to install Microsoft 365 PowerShell modules" error?

When you try to install the MSOnline module using the Install-Module -Name MSOnline command, if there is an error similar to "Unable to download the list of available providers. Check your internet connection.", it might be due to any of the following reasons:
  1. No internet access: Check if there is proper internet connectivity in the Applications Manager installed server.
  2. TLS 1.2 not present:
    1. To check the available TLS versions, execute the below command in the admin PowerShell window: 
      [Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol
    2. If the output does not have the value Tls12, then TLS version 1.2 is not present 
    3. To enable this, open the admin command prompt and execute the following commands: 
      REG ADD HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\.NETFramework\v4.0.30319 /v SchUseStrongCrypto /t REG_DWORD /d 1 
      REG ADD HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework\v4.0.30319 /v SchUseStrongCrypto /t REG_DWORD /d 1
    4. Once done, open a new Powershell window and check if the Tls12 is enabled.
    5. If enabled, then try installing the MSOnline module.
If the issue still persists, contact Microsoft Support to troubleshoot the issue as the Install-Module commands are the direct commands provided by Microsoft.

How to fix "Microsoft 365 connectivity modules are not installed." error?

Check if the MSOnline module mentioned in the prerequisites is installed in the AppManager server. Open PowerShell in administrator mode and run the below command and check if the module is listed:

If the module is not installed, you need to install it. If you face any issues while installing the module, refer the prerequisites.
