No Evidence that Microsoft Cares as Pnp.PowerShell Fills the Gap
Lack of Progress with Graph API
Getting back to the PowerShell module, Microsoft has not updated it to support PowerShell 7. This might not be a problem if you always use Windows, but it does limit platform coverage. Attempting to load and use the module with PowerShell 7 usually fails, especially when multifactor authentication is involved.
The Community Approach to SharePoint Online PowerShell
Because Pnp.PowerShell is a community effort rather than something produced by Microsoft, some organizations are reluctant to use it. They fear that support for bug fixes will be limited or that some catastrophic bug will creep in due to a lack of testing. My experience is that the community developers are very responsive and do better testing than many Microsoft development groups (an example being the recent bugs afflicting the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK). There’s no reason to avoid using Pnp.PowerShell, subject to the normal requirements to test new versions and ensure that every cmdlet does what you expect.

💡We automated the provisioning steps in a PowerShell script for you. It will connect to our environment and get the needed changes applied to your infrastructure.
PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU START
💡 Tip: The script run is also needed when certain Service Settings change (Service Display Name, Service UPN, and PSTN number). Keep the script session window open if you want to test settings. By doing so you don’t need to go through all steps again when you need to provision multiple teams.

Below is an overview of the steps performed by our provisioning script

Provisioning – Step by Step
Get the provisioning script via direct link below. Pick the link depending on the chosen location:

🤔 What will this script do? Automate and guide you through the Azure-related setup on your Tenant. Refer to the detail steps below.
Script Details
🔍 Refer to the diagram above for an overview. During execution and depending on pending Service Settings changes the script will perform the steps below:
Pending changes on a Service will inform about a necessary Script-rerun
DONE?
💡 Please allow for a few minutes before making calls to a newly (re)configured Application Instance or PSTN number as it might take a moment for Microsoft Azure services to synchronize all the changes. 💡 Note that a rerun of this script is necessary for every additional Service and/or within your tenant.
Script Execution
Permission request dialog
Permission grant process
PSTN Licenses and Voice Policies
PSTN LicenseVoice Policy
The script allows you to choose how you would like to apply the required Phone System license to a service (Application Instance).The script will ask before any Online Voice Routing Policy should be applied to a service (Application Instance). 🔍 This is only required if your service is using a Direct Routing phone number. If you are using a phone number provided through Calling Plans or Operator Connect, you can skip the voice policy assignment.
💡 Via the same script functionality you can also remove Phone System licenses from Nimbus services.
💡 The script will only ask for an Online Voice Routing Policy assignment when a phone number is added or changed. If you wish to manually change the policy later on, you can do this via the Grant-CsOnlineVoiceRoutingPolicy command.
Script Conclusion and Rerun
When everything runs as expected you will see green DONE indicators and the script finishes.
Script conclusion and rerun dialog
💡 At the end you will be asked if you want to rerun the script:
Verifying changes via Test Call
Please allow for at least 5 minutes after applying script changes before making the call.
To test the call functionality:
Test call option in the service settings
💡 You can test this with 2 different Microsoft Teams client accounts in separate browser windows to simulate this call on your own as both caller and recipient.
💡 If you have assigned a PSTN license / phone number to the service it is also recommended to test calling it.
PSTN Limitations
Out of the box, Nimbus and related addons can only perform PSTN transfers according to Microsoft’s licensing and constraints.
Which PSTN license do I need to acquire?
As of 2023, “Microsoft Teams Phone Standard” licenses are no longer supported by Microsoft. Previously, those licenses were viable for Nimbus. Regardless if you are using Direct Routing, Calling Plans, Operator Connect, the “Microsoft Teams Phone Resource Account” license is now always required.
Your Setup
Required License
Direct Routing
“Microsoft Teams Phone Resource Account”
Calling Plan
“Microsoft Teams Phone Resource Account”+ “Microsoft Teams Domestic Calling Plan” or “Microsoft Teams Domestic and International Calling Plan” or “Microsoft Teams Calling Plan pay-as-you-go”+ “Communication Credits” (if these aren’t already included as part of your plan)
Operator Connect
“Microsoft Teams Phone Resource Account”
☝Please note that Luware staff cannot give recommendations on which license plan is best suited for your needs. Depending on your scenario, additional Teams App licenses may be required. Exact details are to be discussed with your Microsoft contacts.
How does PSTN licensing affect service and call transfers?
Scenario B – Service B is called directly instead. Now the workflow of Service B attempts a redirect to either service A or transfer to C. The PSTN transfer fails due to a missing license on Service B.
☝Note that handling and tracking of running cost for PSTN licenses is outside of the Luware support scope. If you require assistance in extending and/or configuring your Nimbus services for PSTN, our support will gladly assist you:
