Delegate365 changelog version 7.4-additional reports with risk events and Microsoft Teams, OneDrive shared with and groups as members

With Delegate365 version 7.3 a new reporting engine was introduced. With this update, additional reports are available in Delegate365 version 7.4. The new reports deliver a new report category with risk events, as for example impossible travel risk events or suspicious IP risk events, new Microsoft Teams statistics reports and more. Also, OneDrive usage per user and Shared-With information is now available as a report. Mail Enabled Security Groups can now be assigned with permissions in Resources (rooms and equipment mailboxes) and Shared Mailboxes. See the details and descriptions of all reports here.

  • Important: Since the new reports require additional permissions in the Office 365 tenant, a Global Administrator needs to run a new Delegate365 setup once. Please see Delegate365-(Re)run the setup for a step-by-step manual. This step is necessary after the update to Delegate365 v7.4 was done.
    You need to have a Global Administrator without MFA enabled to run the setup and to accept the new Delegate365 consent:

    So, after the setup, login with the Global Administrator and accept the new consent for all users in your tenant - otherwise no one can sign-in and use the Delegate365 app.
  • Additional reports "Risk events": The list of available reports now offers six new reports showing threads to the Office 365 tenants - filtered just for the entitled OU's of the signed-in administrator.

    • OneDrive files report generation: In the users list, a new menu is available for the selected user: Report OneDrive files generates a report about all files of the user that are existing in the personal OneDrive for Business storage and what files are shared with whom. A use case for this report is that if a user leaves the organization, the admin can see what files have been shared with other users. Then, these common files could be transferred to another user's OneDrive, SharePoint site or similar. So, the report shows these shared files as well.
      image
      A pane opens asking for a notification email address. The signed-in admin is automatically existing in the email field. The generation of the report can take a longer time, if the user has thousands files stored, each file must be checked and looked up, if it was shared or not. So, a notification makes sense in most cases to see the report, when it's available.
      image
      When clicking Submit, the report engine gets a new job and the OneDrive files report task is visible in the reports menu in the Scheduled reports box.
      image
      Once generated, the report can be found in the Finished reports box where it can be downloaded.
    • OneDrive files report result: The OneDrive files generated reports delivers all files of the user's OneDrive storage. The report shows one (or more) line(s) per file with name, path, size, and modified date and with whom the file is shared with.
      image
      Basically, SharedWith always shows the file owner, in this sample, AdeleV. If the file is shared with other users, there is a line for each user with his Roles is added to the report as seen here.
      image
      The WebURL allows to open a file directly with the Office Web apps to have a quick look at the file (if the user has permissions). ParentPath shows the location of the file in the folder structure to find it easily. So, this report delivers all files and their status of a user's OneDrive storage.
      In Excel, filtering is simple: If you want to see all shared with, filter the Roles for all other roles as "owner", here only "read":

      Then Excel shows just the other users and the files they have access to. Excel provides more methods for summarizing, grouping and pivoting if needed.
    • Support for group membership: In Office 365, it's possible to add a Mail Enabled Security Group as member to user's mailboxes, as delegated user in Resources (rooms and equipment mailboxes) and Shared Mailboxes. This does not work for other group types (see Working with Exchange Mailboxes and Groups as members), but for Mail Enabled Security Group only. So, this feature has been added to Delegate365. With this update, it's possible to select a Mail Enabled Security Group from the people picker as well.
      image
    • Using group membership: You can create a new Mail Enabled Security Group in Delegate365 in groups / distribution groups (basically, a Mail Enabled Security Group is a Distribution Group in Office 365). Ensure that the "Mail enabled security group" switch is set to Yes.
      image
      Tip: Since this is an Exchange object, it can take some minutes, until the new group is visible.
      Then, the (new) Mail Enabled Security Group can be added as member for a user's mailbox delegation. In this sample, we assign the group "MailEnabledSecurityGroup1" with the permission Full Access to AdeleV's mailbox. All members of that group have access to that mailbox.
      image
      The same functionality is available for Resources and Shared Mailboxes as well.
      image
      This new group-as-member feature is compliant with Office 365 and simplifies management and allows all members of the assigned group to access the mailboxes.
    • Fixes: Some labels and descriptions have been updated and the CSV and Excel download icons have been changed.

    Delegate365 version 7.4 provides additional reports and new features. The update time will be planned accordingly with our customers. New Delegate365 tenants will get this version automatically starting by end of February.
