[<CommonParameters>]In this article, we will discuss how to use the Set-MsolServicePrincipal cmdlet in PowerShell to update the properties of a service principal in Azure Active Directory.
How to Change the Properties of a Service Principal
To change the properties of a service principal in Office 365, use the Set-MsolServicePrincipal command in PowerShell.
# Get the service principal ID
$AppId = (Get-MsolServicePrincipal -ServicePrincipalName "ShellGeekApp/ShellApp.com").AppPrincipalId
# Update the service principal name and display name of service principal
Set-MsolServicePrincipal -AppPrincipalId $AppId -DisplayName "Shell Geek Application" -ServicePrincipalNames @("ShellGeekApp/ShellApp.com", "Shell Geek App")
The Get-MsolServicePrincipal cmdlet in PowerShell gets an application ID of a service principal name and stores it in the $AppId variable.
The Set-MsolServicePrincipal command uses the -AppPrincipalId parameter to specify the application ID and updates the display name and service principal names.
This change will overwrite the previous settings on a service principal in Azure Active Directory.
How to Change the Addresses on a Service Principal
To change the addresses on a service principal, use the Set-MsolServicePrincipal cmdlet with the -Addresses parameter.
The -Addresses parameter specify the addresses list with which to update and overwrite the existing list.
$AppId = (Get-MsolServicePrincipal -ServicePrincipalName "ShellGeekApp").AppPrincipalId $a = @() $a = $a + (Get-MsolServicePrincipal -ServicePrincipalName "ShellGeekApp").Addresses $a = $a + (New-MsolServicePrincipalAddresses -Value "ShellApp1.com") $a = $a + (New-MsolServicePrincipalAddresses -Value "ShellApp2.com") Set-MsolServicePrincipal -AppPrincipalId $AppId -Addresses $a
This command updates the addresses of a service principal “ShellGeekApp“.
