Bug report: m365 team channel add doesn't work with certificate authentication #7045
Description
Priority
(Low) Something is a little off
Description
m365 team channel add doesn't work when cli-m365 is used with certificate authentication. However, this isn't inevitable as the Pnp.PowerShell CmdLet Add-PnpTeamsChannel works OK. This appears to be due to the difference in underlying APIs used.
Steps to reproduce
- Login using certificate authentication.
- Run
m365 team channel addwith any required parameters
E.g. m365 teams channel add --teamName "Team 2" --name "mine" --type "standard" --debug
Expected results
A teams channel is created.
Actual results
{"error":"/me request is only valid with delegated authentication flow."}
