Just discovered the “Community Leaders page compiled by Communauté aOS” on docs.com with interviews with active members of the Microsoft communities! Martina and I are honored to be part of these communities with such great guys! The following picture shows Nuno Árias Silva, Hans Brender, Elio Struyf, Francesco Sodano, Jeff Teper (Microsoft Corporate Vice President OneDrive and SharePoint), Rodrigo Pinto and (the profile of) Paolo Pialorsi (and me). This photo was taken at SharePoint Saturday Paris in May 2016 and there were a lot of great speakers at that community event (see also our impressions here). ...

Recently, I stumbled on an issue when working with address lists in Exchange Online (Office 365). Existing Members didn’t show up in the list, although their attributes match with the filter expressions used for the address list… Well the creation of a new address list works as expected with the Exchange Online PowerShell New-AddressList cmdlet. The command can be used as here: New-AddressList –Name 'New York and HR' -RecipientFilter {( (department -eq 'New York') -or (department -eq 'Human Resources') )} So, if an object matches the filter criteria, it shall be member of that address list “New York and HR”. So far, so good. ...

Letzten Donnerstag, den 16. Juni, fand bei Microsoft in Wien das Build 2016 Redelivery Event statt. Microsoft hatte eingeladen, sich persönlich über “Das neueste zu Windows 10 und anderen coolen Dingen – Zusammenfassung von der //build” zu informieren. Es gab drei Tracks, gefolgt vom Sommergrillen im Garten. Hier gibts ein paar Snapshots vom Event! Die Agenda bot Programm für IT-Pros und Open Source Enthusiasten (siehe hier) und für Developer (siehe hier) war bunt gemischt. Die Sprecher waren von Microsoft DX und Mitglieder aus der Microsoft Community (MCTs, MVPs, RDs). Die Themen reichten von Azure (Stack) bis HoloLens und Augmented und Virtual Reality. ...

On Saturday, the 28th of May 2016, our second SharePoint Saturday Paris took place. Again, the organization team Patrick and Gokan arranged a perfect community event in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. We enjoyed Paris in May (before river Seine flooded the shores one week later), we even had a great speaker dinner on a boat on the Seine. We also had the pleasure to meet with “Mr. SharePoint”, Jeff Teper, Microsoft Corporate Vice-President OneDrive and SharePoint who delivered a keynote and spent time with the SharePoint community. So this event was amazing and special! More than 1.700 tweets sent - see the Twitter statistics by Jussi Roine. ...

Yeah, they did it again! The team around Branka Obuljen Štritof, Adis Jugo, Toni Frankola and Nenad Trajkovski organized the fourth SPC Adriatics Conference coming next week, from May 31st to June 1st 2016. The event will be held in Zagreb, Croatia, again. What’s so special about this conference? Well, read it here! SPC Adriatics started four years ago out of the idea of the Microsoft MVPs Adis, Toni and Nenad to organize a SharePoint and Project conference for the Adriatic region… ...

Time is running… we are looking forward to our second SharePoint Saturday in Paris! SPS Paris will take place this weekend, on the 28th May 2016 at Montparnasse Tower,33 Avenue du Maine, 75015 Paris. We are really excited about this community event and hope to see some of you there! https://www.spsevents.org/city/Paris/Paris2016/home And there’s a great agenda, see it at https://www.spsevents.org/city/Paris/Paris2016/schedule Martina and I will speak about Office 365 Connectors. ...

Delegate365 version 5.2 has many new features (see here). In D365 version 5.3 we have a new feature for changing Office 365 licenses for users with already assigned OU’s. This article describes how this works in detail with an example, step by step. Why did we add this feature? Well, a D365 customer had the requirement to auto assign Office 365 licenses. This could already be done in the previous versions of D365. But the peculiarity was that Office 365 licenses should be set gradually. So for example, in May users of an OU should get a license for SharePoint Online, in June for Yammer and in July for Exchange Online. This is a special use case which could only be done in D365 manually or partly, but not automatically. So we added this feature in the product. ...

Delegate365 version 5.2 is here. We skipped version 5.1 because of many new features (which would have been version 5.1) and the OpenID Connect authentication update (which we changed in version 5.2). So we combined both updates in version 5.2 to minimize the effort. If you are coming from D365 version 5.0 you have not missed anything. See the new features of version 5.2 described in here. Important: For the update of your existing D365 tenant, it is necessary to run the Delegate365 Setup again. Please see Delegate365 now uses OpenID Connect - or how to run setup to update to version 5.2 for the step-by-step details. ...
