This cmdlet sends an invitation to the email addresses in invitations.csv. More features of this cmdlet include:
Customized text in the email message
Including a display name for the invited user
Sending messages to CCs or suppressing email messages altogether
Code sample
The code sample illustrates how to call the invitation API and get the redemption URL. Use the redemption URL to send a custom invitation email. You can compose the email with an HTTP client, so you can customize how it looks and send it through the Microsoft Graph API.
