Delegate365 and the Exchange issue update

Wednesday, August 30, 2017 10:00 AM Toni Pohl
In the last days, some customers of Delegate365 experienced a warning in the Delegate365 portal that informed about the failing communication to Exchange Online. This issue was caused by the Microsoft Exchange Online PowerShell endpoint. We are glad to announce that this issue should be fixed soon.

Use Azure AD app principal without user context

Monday, August 21, 2017 1:41 PM js
For an application registered in AAD to be able to run in application context only without a user context the "Company Administrator" role has to be assigned to the application in order to be able to access administrator endpoints for APIs like the Microsoft Graph. No additional permissions have to be assigned to the application after assigning this role.The assignment has to be done using PowerShell and looks like this: (the app registration has to be done beforehand)Install-Module AzureADConnect-AzureAD$app = Get-AzureADServicePrincipal -SearchString "your app name"$role = Get-AzureADDirectoryRole | Where-Object { $_.DisplayName -eq "Company Administrator" }Add-AzureADDirectoryRoleMember -ObjectId $role.ObjectId -RefObjectId $app.ObjectIdNote that you have to replace the string "your app name" with the name provided to your app registration. The script intalls (if not already installed) the AzureAD PowerShell module and uses the contained commandlets to get the service principal of the app registration by name, gets the Azure AD Directory Role "Company Administrator" and adds this role to the service principal of the app. After the role has been added, the app might, e.g., make queries to the user endpoint of the Microsoft Graph API to get properties from any users in the AAD.

Gain access as delegated partner to another Office365 tenant with PowerShell

Wednesday, January 11, 2017 6:00 AM Toni Pohl
The goal was administer an Office365 tenant as delegated partner. But, currently I had difficulties to access another Office365 tenant in the Microsoft Partner Portal. When selecting a partner and opening the Office 365 admin center, not the partner tenant was opened but instead my own tenant. I didn’t figure out why this no longer was working. Anyway, I tried to use PowerShell instead…

MailTips in Exchange Online nutzen um sicherer zu kommunizieren

Monday, August 1, 2016 7:00 AM Martina Grom
MailTips in Exchange Online können für unterschiedliche Dinge verwendet werden: gibt es eine DLP Policy, die den Benutzer warnt, bevor er sicherheitsrelevante Nachrichten versendet oder dies sogar verhindert oder auch einfache MailTips, die vor allem dazu dienen sollen, den Nachrichtenverlauf zu verbessern. Beispielsweise könnte ein MailTip dazu dienen den Absender zu informieren, dass er gerade an eine Verteilerliste mit mehr as 25 Empfängern sendet.
