Good afternoon,

Is there a script for adding a user to an already existing Office 365 Shared Mailbox? I want to add this script onto the onboarding rules I have added already.

Hello,

Unfortunately, there is no such possibility. The thing is that whenever a user is created in Entra ID (former Azure AD), it takes a while for Exchange Online to recognize the account. Adding a member to a shared mailbox means granting the Full Access permissions. As such, to achieve the desired, you can use the following script in a scheduled task: https://www.adaxes.com/script-repository/grant-target-user-full-access-over-specific-mailbox-s614.htm.
