MVP PowerShell Module

⚠️ IMPORTANT This module will stop working on the 29th of April 2022.

Unfortunately Microsoft decided to retire the Microsoft MVP API. :disappointed: :disappointed: :disappointed:

We would like to inform you that as of April 29th, 2022, the MVP Portal API will be decommissioned due to technical support limitations and incompatibility with Microsoft accessibility guidelines. If you would like to add contributions to your profile, you can access the MVP Private page and perform this task directly.

Build Status

PowerShell Module to interact with the Microsoft MVP API and manage your contributions (Get, Add, Update and Remove), retrieve contributions type and technologies, retrieve a mvp profile and maintain your online identities.

In order to use this module you need to get a Subscription Key from https://mvpapi.portal.azure-api.net/, see the steps below or follow the documentation from Microsoft:

  6. This request will be reviewed and Accepted / Declined by the admin in one or two business days. The admin verifies your access permission based on your Microsoft Account. It must be the same Microsoft Account as you use for your Microsoft MVP Site access.
  7. Once approved, on the top right corner click on your name and select PROFILE
  8. You should see a subscription for the MVP Production
  9. On the Primary Key line, select Show and this is your Subscription Key
  10. You are ready to use the module, see below
# Set your connection to the MVP API
$SubscriptionKey = 'abcdef083b5b482f8d99184d318b12f6' # this is a fake key btw ;)
Set-MVPConfiguration -SubscriptionKey $SubscriptionKey

A user interface will show to authenticate against the Microsoft API "mvpapi.portal.azure-api.net"

We can see all the entries were created on the portal

Alt text

Remove-MVPContribution -ID 731771

This will delete the entries between 731771 and 731780

731771..731780 | foreach-object {
    if(Get-MVPContribution -ID $_){
        Remove-MVPContribution -ID $_
    }
}

This will display the specified MVP IDs in the default browser.

Show-MVPProfile -ID 4025267

As seen in Configure connection when you start using the module, you will need to authenticate against Microsoft Live OAuth.

  • Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key : Subscription key which provides access to this API. Found in your Profile.
  • Authorization : OAuth 2.0 access token obtained from MSFT Live OAuth. Supported grant types: Authorization code.

If you want to save your SubscriptionKey, we recommend you store it inside your PowerShell profile. For example, you can add the following:

# MVP Subscription Key
$MVPSubscriptionKey = '<YOUR KEY>'
Set-MVPConfiguration -SubscriptionKey $MVPSubscriptionKey

Accessing your PowerShell profile:

notepad $profile

During authentication, the module opens an Internet Explorer window to authenticate the user against the Microsoft backend.

If you need to clear this information, you'll need to clear the Internet Explorer cache.

Would love contributors, suggestions, feedback, and other help! Feel free to open an Issue ticket.
