Get-MtUserAuthenticationMethod

SYNOPSIS​

Get the authentication methods for the specified user

SYNTAX​

Get-MtUserAuthenticationMethod [-UserId] <Object> [-ProgressAction <ActionPreference>] [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION​

Get the authentication method from the /users/{id}/authentication/methods endpoint and appends the typeDisplayName and isMfa properties to each authentication method.

The user authentication method returned by Graph is missing key information such as the display name and whether an auth method is a multi-factor authentication method or not.

This cmdlet also returns an IsMfa status for the overall user object and is set to true if the user has at least one MFA method enabled.

Note: The overall IsMfa status may not be accurate in tenants that identity federation or authentication methods like Certificate Based Authentication that don't have a state registered against the user object.
