Hey Darren,

Thank you for all your work on this script and for sharing it with the world.

Unfortunately, I have not been able to get it working. I get the following error:

PS D:\Users\xxx\Desktop> D:\Users\ryan_\Desktop\getM365AppUserDetail.ps1
Report Data for 0 Users retrieved....
Error applying conditional formatting to worksheet Cannot bind argument to parameter 'Address' because it is null.

    Note that I comment out the following line, as per your earlier suggestion.

    #$m365UserActivityData = $m365UserActivityData.replace("", "")

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Thank you :)

Hey @CloudLearner7894144

I had the same issue as you. After searching a lot, I made some modifications to the file, and it worked. I cannot remember what I did (other than editing lines 80 & 86), but I have uploaded the working .ps1 to my git (its my first time doing this).

You can access it at this link: https://gist.github.com/smccnn1/9102bc8040a8486af2406d69033c3ca5#file-getm365appuserdetail-ps1

I hope it works for you!
