This code worked for about last 2 months, then is now failing:
Connect-PnPOnline -Url " -UseWebLogin
$listsToAdd = @("Structure Reqs","Perm Mods")
ForEach ($listToAdd in $listsToAdd)
{
$field = Get-PnPField -List $listToAdd -Identity "MyTargetColumn"
$ctx = Get-PnPContext
$fieldChoice = [Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ClientContext].GetMethod("CastTo").MakeGenericMethod([Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.FieldChoice]).Invoke($ctx,$field)
$ctx.Load($fieldChoice)
Invoke-PnPQuery
$choices = $fieldChoice.Choices
$choices += "MyNewValue".ToUpper()
$fieldChoice.Choices = $choices | Sort-Object
$fieldChoice.UpdateAndPushChanges($true)
Invoke-PnPQuery
}
