Think you need half the #MSGraph SDK just to get anything useful? Good news: you really only need one module.

In my new post I show how I find the right endpoint in Graph Explorer, pull it into #PowerShell, and get results without the bloat.

Why another Graph post? If you’ve tried working with Microsoft Graph, I can probably guess that it maybe took a bit of time to appreciate all of its capabilities. I’ve heard MS Graph described as t...

I like my Lenovo hardware, and I want to keep it up to date with the latest drivers, firmware, and other software updates. In this small blog post, I will show you how you can do that using the LSUClient module from Jantari.

I don’t swap contexts inside VSCode. The closest I get is saving creds as a variable for an account with the permissions. If it’s something I need to run more than once or against on-prem/non-Azure resources, I use Azure Arc with an automation account/function app/etc.

I just went to take a look to see if there were any changes in Confluence and saw that there's a native Markdown Macro that can use a url, but would need a profile. I am going to play around with that a bit to see how feasible it is to use.

Hey Justin! Originally I had used the Markdown Macro that's native in Confluence where I had just copy/pasted the markdown into the macro.

Exactly! There is a creator on TikTok that’s a senior software engineer that gave really great examples of why it’s so important to thoroughly evaluate solutions. K8s are super cool, but if you don’t have the use-case for it, it’s a bit overkill…

I really struggled with feeling competent with #MSGraph but breaking it down into the sum of it's parts made it a ton easier for me to see WHY I was focused on learning it. I was learning how to work with an API, auth, pagination, etc. That's a skill I can translate into any language or platform.

Hailey Phillips | MVP @allwayshype.com · Aug 16

because at the end of the day, when you can show that value, and reliably scale it, those are INVALUABLE skills.

That's a big reason I'm such a fan of spending the time learning automation (even when it's hard and scary) because it sets you up for enabling your own growth.

but doing something as seemingly simple as uploading your standard #PowerShell scripts into source control and sharing with your team is a great way to become well on your way towards building that culture that really drives business value (I kinda hate myself that lol).
