Description of the issue

HI All

I am new to this system, but i need to get it working, I have a large number of tenants I would like to centrally manage, however I am have a few problems getting going.

I am unable to create a backup of my central tenant, every time I try I get permissions issues, I have tried with Username and Password, Application and Certificate

The main issue appears to be Exchange and connecting to it, it throws an error everytime.

I want to use Application ID as I move around a bit (no I'm not on the run) so I can just run a set of scripts .

Where am I going wrong please?

David
