Steps

1     1. Register an app in Azure AD https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/quickstart-register-app

2     2.  Add client secret

3      3. Add permission to Sharepoint

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/quickstart-configure-app-access-web-apis#add-permissions-to-access-web-apis

4       4. Run the following in Windows Powershell ISE

Install the ADAL PS module using the below command

Install-Module -Name ADAL.PS

 Sample Script

$authority = "https://login.microsoftonline.com/tenant.onmicrosoft.com"

 $resourceUrl =  "<<application Id>>"     #On-Behalf_of flow- We need to get token for the appid

$clientId = "<<application Id>>"

$redirectUri = "https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/nativeclient" # you should have marked the app as native client in Azure AD

$clientSecret = ConvertTo-SecureString "<<Client secret>>" -AsPlainText -Force

$tenantId="<<tenant GUID>"

$userID="<<Guid of the user>>"

# I use implicit grant flow to get access token for the application

$response = Get-ADALToken -Resource $resourceUrl  -UserId $userID -ClientId $clientId -UserIdType UniqueId   -Authority $authority -PromptBehavior: Auto -RedirectUri $redirectUri

$token = $response.AccessToken

$spresourceUrl="https://tenant.sharepoint.com/.default"

# I use the access token in assertion to get on-behalf-of access token for the Sharepoint online resource

$body = @{}

$body.Add("grant_type","urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:jwt-bearer")

$body.Add("client_id","$clientId ")

$body.Add("client_secret","$clientSecret")

$body.Add("assertion","$token")

$body.Add("scope","$spresourceUrl")

$body.Add("requested_token_use","on_behalf_of")

$curl="https://login.microsoftonline.com/$tenantId/oauth2/v2.0/token"

$res=Invoke-WebRequest -Method POST -Uri $curl -Body $body 

$authtoken =$res.Accesstoken

$headers = @{}

$headers.Add("Accept","application/json")

$headers.Add("Authorization","Bearer $authtoken")

$curl2="https://tenant.sharepoint.com/_api/search/query?querytext='test'"

$response1 =  Invoke-RestMethod -Method Get -Uri $curl2 -Headers $headers -Verbose -ContentType application/json

Get Web title - Sharepoint Online Powershell

Install the module 

Install-Module -Name Microsoft.Online.SharePoint.PowerShell

Sample Script

$loadInfo1 = [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoint.Client")

$loadInfo2 = [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Runtime")

$siteUrl = "https://tenant.sharepoint.com"

$username = read-host "type username"   #example admin@tenant.onmicrosoft.com

$password = read-host "type password" -AsSecureString

#========================= Client context ===============================

$spocred= New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.SharePointOnlineCredentials($username,$password )

$ctx = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ClientContext($siteUrl)

$ctx.Credentials = $spocred

$web = $ctx.Web

$ctx.Load($web)

$ctx.ExecuteQuery()

Write-Host " Current web title is '$($web.Title)' "
