When using Delegate365, the system sends emails for various notifications. If the email is not received, check this configuration. Check these relevant points: Sender requirements: Check whether you are using an Office 365 email address that has an Exchange license. The sender address needs to have a mailbox that can be used for sending. As a Portal Admin, open the Administration / App settings menu, and open the Email configuration section. After clicking the Save button, try it out by sending a test email to a user below. The mailbox should get a test message. If this does not work, use another (service) mail account and retry. ...

I recently came across an article that shows how (in)secure passwords are these days. See it here! On Hive Systems, author Corey Neskey has created an article and an illustrative table titled “Time it takes a hacker to brute force your password in 2022”. As computers become more and more powerful, passwords can be hacked faster and faster. It’s amazing how quickly short passwords can be hacked these days. Therefore, using a good and long password and MFA is essential these days. ...

Last Friday, the cloudusergroup organized the Virtual Community Event #ADCD2022, the Austrian Developer Community Day 2022. We had 25+ interesting sessions with great speakers and a great virtual day of the event. Here are some impressions of it. There hasn’t been a local community event for cloud developers for a long time. So we decided to hold such an event. Martina Grom and I, Toni Pohl, started to organize the event end of 2021. Due to the current Covid situation, it was clear that the event could unfortunately only take place virtually. Thankfully we got great support from Rainer Stropek, Martin Ullrich, Christian Glessner and Zaid Zaim. and we found some sponsors for advertising and for financing the community platform Hopin we wanted to use for the first time: Thanks to Microsoft Austria, atwork, Software Architects, hololux, tietoevry and to Coding Club Linz for your support! ...

Delegate365 v9.2.5 got another update: The license ordering module can display a custom file to provide additional ordering information for administrators when requesting new licenses. This option supports administrators in their ordering process and can provide company-specific information about the order. The document is then displayed with a link in the license ordering module. Upload a document: As Portal Admin, open Administration / General settings and scroll down to the License order process section. The document part for the license order is integrated here. The file can be any file in any format such as PDF, Word, Excel or similar. One file can be uploaded, not multiple files. Click on the Upload document button and select a file from your computer. Then, click on the Save button. In this sample, a document license-order-info.pdf has been uploaded. The file is stored in the Delegate365 Azure Storage (and could be accessed in the storage directly as well). ...

With this update, Delegate365 allows viewing and changing licenses for shared mailboxes and resource mailboxes. Since each mailbox is a user mailbox and Delegate365 works with the OU scopes, the behavior of the new license management depends on the assigned OUs and objects. Details can be found here. New menu license in Shared Mailboxes and Resource Mailboxes The modules Mailboxes / Shared mailboxes and Mailboxes / Resources now show a module Licenses in the context menu on the right when a mailbox is selected in the list. ...

Delegate365 v9.2.5 includes a new module showing a user´s authentication methods and the assigned devices. See the details here. Note: This update does not require a new setup, if the previous version was v9.2.4. Otherwise, the Admin has to run the setup after the update process. New authentication methods menu in Users: In the Users module, when a user is selected, the context menu shows the Authentication methods item. View and delete devices: After opening the Authentication methods menu, a panel opens and shows the assigned devices, and the last login to that device, as here. The admin can remove devices by clicking on the Delete icon per device. A confirmation with the device name follows, like for “Deleted Device” here: When confirmed, a toaster notification in the bottom right corner shows the successful removal of the device. That´s it. Continue as needed to cleanup old devices. ...

Static website hosting in Azure Storage is really cool and quick method for simple deployment scenarios. Azure CDN edge nodes provide the cache and distribution layer with custom domains, rules, and further configuration options for such a static website. But what to do if you update the static website and it doesn’t deliver the new content? How can you force an update? See the solution here. In this sample, we have a community website www.cloudusergroup.at running in Azure. You can find out how to create and to deploy a static website on an Azure Storage Account at Static website hosting in Azure Storage and a tutorial at Tutorial: Host a static website on Blob Storage. In this case, the website has a custom domain bound to the website with Azure CDN, see more at Quickstart: Integrate an Azure Storage account with Azure CDN. ...

Azure storage accounts are a great and inexpensive way to store lots of data. I am using Azure Table storage to store large amounts of structured data for various tools. I needed to filter all rows that have a specific field that shows Null. While this sounds simple, it is a bit tricky. Here’s how. The problem is that columns showing “Null” just don’t exist, but they are shown in list with Null. Therefore, it does not work to filter them out. In my example, I had a table with a column called Users (of type Int32) that contained items with a number and others that had no value. So, the following query filters for a timeframe and all items having a Users value greater than 0. Unfortunately, the query also shows elements with the Null value… ...
