I am in process of PowerShell automation of adding and removing the users and their respective SharePoint sites in an eDiscovery case hold in O365 security and Compliance center.
I am able to add the users and respective SharePoint sites successfully to hold using the below script.
But i am not able to remove the users and respective SharePoint sites using the script and it is throwing the error that it"could not find the site in existing binding"
