Quick And Easy PowerShell Report For Azure AD Guest User Last Sign In

Microsoft has some cool tools for Guest user management. Implementing Access Reviews for example is great for ensuring expiration of Guest access when needed. We can also control who can invite Guests and which domains we allow Guests from. When this is all set up we have some really great governance over our B2B strategy in Microsoft 365. Unfortunately, there are a ton of organizations who didn’t have a full governance plan from day 1 and are now in remediation of Guest sprawl.

To help out with this remediation process, I’ve put together a straightforward script (available on GitHub) which will pull all guest users in a tenant, search the logs for the last sign in date/time and also list any apps they’ve logged into. This report is limited by the retention of AAD logs which is 30 days so keep that in mind when running. You’ll need to have an output folder present at c:\temp to export the results.

The only module required for this script is the AzureADPreview PowerShell Module which can be installed using the command “Install-Module AzureADPreview”

  1. Thank you for providing this! I had to make some tweaks to this script because:

    if ($logs -is [array]) {
    $timestamp = $logs[0].createddatetime
    }
    else {
    $timestamp = $logs.createddatetime
    }

    A lot of times would not return anything, after doing numerous spot checks against the user in Azure Active Directory. I did change this to the following with much better success:

    $timestamp = $logs.createddatetime
    If ($timestamp -eq $NULL){
    $timestamp = “BLANK”}
    Else
    {$timestamp = $logs[0].createddatetime}

    Additionally, I needed to do some spot checks against the creation date to show a customer that accounts that have existed for a while needed cleanup by pulling the creation date. I did this with some modifications:

    $exuser = $guest.extensionproperty
    $object = [PSCustomObject]@{

    Userprincipalname = $guest.userprincipalname
    UserState = $guest.UserState
    Enabled = $guest.AccountEnabled
    Name = $guest.DisplayName
    Mail = $guest.mail
    CreatedDate = $exuser.createdDateTime
    LastSignin = $timestamp
    AppsUsed = (($logs.resourcedisplayname | select -Unique) -join (‘;’))

    Finally to ensure that attributes were being cleared for the next loop, I updated the end to change Remove-Variable to Clear-Variable:

    Clear-Variable object
    Clear-Variable logs
    Clear-Variable timestamp
    Clear-Variable exuser

    Your script has been an invaluable part of my Azure Active Directory security audits for clients so I had to share some ways I’ve been able to improve 😁

    If got an error from azureadauditsigninlogs stating: too many requests.
    Solved it by adding a 2 second sleep at the foreach loop.

    Start-Sleep -s 2

    How on earth did you get this to work?

    $logs = Get-AzureADAuditSignInLogs -Filter “userprincipalname eq `’$($guest.mail)'” -ALL:$true

    It’s well documented out there that the filter switch can’t handle any variables. Replace it with a hard coded string and it’s fine. Can you confirm this DEFINITELY works? I copied your script and found it didn’t work. I’ve already been trying using my own script for months.

    1. It has always worked for me as long as it’s formatted correctly, for example I just ran this. note the formatting of the variable inside the string.
      Get-AzureADAuditSignInLogs -Filter “userprincipalname eq ‘$($user.userprincipalname)'” -ALL:$true
