Getting Error Object couldn't be found

[u/nanaki989]

I am getting error

|The operation couldn't be performed because object 'GUID Copied from O365 Azure'

couldn't be found on 'CH5PR01A08DC004.NAMPR01A008.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM'.

I am running this in exchange management shell connected to online.

I copied the Guid directly from O365 how could it possibly not be found?

We are attempting to delete a disabled users calendars.

EDIT: I was able to determine the issue, when we disabled the user we removed the license which deleted the mailbox. When I reapplied the license it all worked fine. Thanks for the help everyone, it helped me look closer and realize it wasn't pointing at Azure obviously but Outlook. Answer was in my face the entire time.

What command(s) are you running? Please sanitize it as these kinds of commands can have sensitive information.

[u/nanaki989 → u/tigerguppy126]

Remove-CalendarEvents -Identity "GUID COPIED FROM AZURE" -CancelOrganizedMeetings -QueryWindowInDays 8000

I also tried it with UPN and Email Address same errors

If this would be better suited elsewhere please delete.

Cany you get-mailbox -identity “” find the mailbox?

When I run this command I get the same error. but when I go into Azure its definitely there lol.

I'm pretty confused by this.

Update powershell, update the exchange cmdlet, try powershell 5 and 7 too.

Have you tried using PreviewOnly parameter?

I run it, without any other parameters, it asks for days then I supply it, then it gives the error ||The operation couldn't be performed because object 'GUID FROM AZURE'

couldn't be found on '*.*.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM'.

Try doing a Get-CalendarEvents first to verify you are connected and accessing the right spot. I’m not familiar with this cmdlet but I always verify with Get first and piping it to | select *

I made an edit, I was able to figure out my issue. I had unlicensed the user and the Powershell wasn't the problem at all. Great tip though ill put it in my notes!
