PowerShell to Stop Office 365 Azure AD Connect Synchronized

The Office 365 Administrative console will not allow you to delete objects that are synchronized with Active Directory.

1. $credential = Get-Credential
2. Import-Module MsOnline
3. Connect-MsolService -Credential $credential
4. Set-MsolDirSyncEnabled –EnableDirSync $false

After disabling Synchronization you should be able to delete objects. If you are testing and you would like to re-create the accounts after deleting them – you may need to empty the recycle bin so that name conflicts do not occur.
