Exam SC-300 topic 1 question 4 discussion

In the exam the cmdlet was Set-MsolUserLicense, the right one!

Correct!

This question presents three different correct answer patterns as options: - Licenses blade in the Microsoft Entra admin center - Set-MsolUserLicense - Set-MgUserLicense

You cannot assign licenses in "Licenses blade in the Azure Active Directory admin center" anymore. In M365 admin center, you will see the message: "You can assign to a maximum of 20 users at a time." So this must be an old question but the answer has to be "Set-MgUserLicense" when assigning licenses to users.

I hope this question is re-worded on the exam as this question leads down the path of stupid. The fastest way to handle license update would be through PowerShell cmdlets. In this case B would be the correct answer but I hope the exam has an option which utilizes the MgGraph PowerShell SDK module.

The Licenses blade in the Azure Active Directory admin center allows administrators to assign or unassign licenses for up to 20 users at a time12. This limitation is in place to ensure efficient management and reduce the risk of errors during bulk operations. If you need to manage licenses for a larger number of users, you might consider using PowerShell scripts or Azure AD group-based licensing for more efficient bulk operations

To remove the Office 365 Enterprise E3 licenses from the users with the least amount of administrative effort, you should use: C. the Licenses blade in the Azure Active Directory admin center This option allows you to manage licenses in bulk, making it easier to remove the E3 licenses from all 2,500 users efficiently

Unfortunately they have included in exam but the documnetation is still incomplete for powesrhell Module : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.graph.users.actions/set-mguserlicense?view=graph-powershell-1.0

since the interface lets you do only 20 at a time, a script is needed thus Set-MsolUserLicense or Set-AzureAdUserLicense

B. the Set-AzureAdUser cmdlet. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/azuread/set-azureaduserlicense?view=azureadps-2.0

correct answer is C

C. the Licenses blade in the Azure Active Directory admin center allows you to assign or unassign licenses for up to 20 users at a time, not 2,500 users

The correct answer is B. the Set-AzureAdUser cmdlet. The Set-AzureAdUser cmdlet allows you to modify the properties of a user in Azure Active Directory, including their assigned licenses. You can use this cmdlet to remove the Office 365 Enterprise E3 licenses from the users in bulk, by using a text file that contains the user principal names of the users

Correct Answer: C

C. the Licenses blade in the Azure Active Directory admin center

To remove licenses from an existing user account, use the following syntax: Set-MgUserLicense -UserId "<Account>" -RemoveLicenses @("<AccountSkuId1>") -AddLicenses @{} "The Set-MsolUserLicense and New-MsolUser (-LicenseAssignment) cmdlets are scheduled to be retired. Please migrate your scripts to the Microsoft Graph SDK's Set-MgUserLicense cmdlet as described above" https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/enterprise/remove-licenses-from-user-accounts-with-microsoft-365-powershell?source=recommendations&view=o365-worldwide

The correct answer is B. Read the question carefully: The licenses are assigned to individual users from the Groups blade in the Azure Active Directory admin center. That being said, we are talking about group based licensing. And the the least amount of administrative effort is set-azureaduser cmdlet to change all the 25000 users to the new E5 licenses
