The phrase "Can be done separately later." is vague. For consistency with line 117, consider referencing the Add-GroupToCloudAdmins cmdlet explicitly, e.g., "This can be done separately later via Add-GroupToCloudAdmins."

The phrase 'external identity' appears to be missing the word 'source' — should read 'external identity source' to match the terminology used throughout the document and on line 117.
