Office 365 can be automated by your own apps. There are many ways to accomplish that, so we are delivering the ways how to authenticate and how to use Microsoft’s Office 365 Cloud Services. We will upload our presentation and our code demos here shortly…!
We updated the product website Delegate365.com and implemented some improvements there to support interested parties to inform about Delegate365 and to open a trial. New Trial: We added added a new “Trial” button prominently to the menu to make it very easy to find the trial and to open a new evaluation version of Delegate365. The new form is also directly reachable with the URL https://delegate365.com/trial. In the trial form you just need to fill in your name, organization and company name. There’s also a field for optional additional comments – the same as before. After submitting the data with “Request Trial” we approve the request in the workflow and provision a new D365 tenant for you. This process may take up to one business day. ...
We had a great time at SharePoint Saturday Paris (www.spsevents.org/city/Paris/Paris2015)! Thanks a lot to the organizers Benoit, Gokan and Patrick! The event was well organized and we had a lot of fun being part of the french and the international SharePoint community at this event. #SPSParis took place in Tour Montparnasse, which was the tallest skyscraper in France until 2011. We had a fantastic view from the 40th level over Paris, wow! We enjoyed the great speaker dinner and the event itself and all activities around it. ...
We had a busy May! Delegate’s next version 3.8 brings some more new features. See the details here: User Password Policy: Now Administrators can set a the Password Policy for each user. If at least one user is selected, on the right side panel the new function “Password Policy” is shown, as in the screenshot below. The Task Pane loads the current settings of the selected user and enables the setting “Password never expires” for the Admin. When clicking “Save” the setting will update the password policy for this particular user. ...
Martina and I have been on Microsoft Ignite Conference in Chicago recently. There we met Patrick Guimonet, Microsoft MVP and Regional Director in France and spoke briefly about Build and Ignite Conference and about our session at SharePoint Saturday Paris (#SPSParis). SPSParis happens this Saturday, on 30th of May, at Montparnasse Tower and will host a lot of interesting sessions about the newest trends and technologies around SharePoint and Office 365. See the details here: https://www.spsevents.org/city/paris/paris2015 ...
Since some time some folder names in my mailbox have been “wrong” in Outlook. What do I mean by wrong? Well, they had names like “Junk-E-Mail1” and “RSS-Feeds1” and I could not rename or delete them (because these are “default folders”). Also I had a mix of english and german folder names, because I had once a german mailbox, then this was migrated to Office365 and then I used to switch between german and english versions of Outlook. ...
Delegate365 version 3.7 brings a bunch of new features! Again, this version is a major milestone for our Office365 Add-On product. First of all, the management of all lists has been improved. We now use a Side Panel for all options for the selected objects which eases the usage. With that there are new bulk operations available. Some features have been improved and changed as well. See the details here. ...
Shortly we launched Delegate365 version 3.6. There were some changes and more features added. In the administration menu the modules for assigning and unassigning have been combined, Administrators now can set their default values for creating users and the support address is now configurable. Administration: Assign: The assign module is used to set the OU for users, groups, contacts, etc. Since we had many single modules for assigning objects to an OU… …we decided to unite them into one new module “assign” which reduces the modules list in the administration menu (see also here). Now there’s the selectable region and the assign-actions below. You can open the corresponding group to select the objects and then choose the OU for the assignment. As before each object in D365 belongs to one OU (see also virtual OU’s for multiple management here - Important security change in group membership selections:). With the new module it’s easy to select (unassigned) users, distribution groups, security groups, contacts, shared mailboxes and rooms to assign them to a specific OU. Once that is done the items show up in the corresponding lists for the scope admins to manage. ...
