Groups Governance Toolkit Part 5-External Guests

Groups Governance Toolkit Part 5-External Guests

Governance specifies the rules for an organization. The Office 365 collaboration platform allows to invite external users for contributing in groups. In this part, we want to monitor all groups that have external guests and inform the group owners, who has access to a group or a team. See how this works here. Get all groups with external guests We use the same mechanism as before, see the article about Orphaned Groups. A function runs e.g. every day, reads all existing groups in the Office 365 tenant, and writes each group in a queue.

Delegate365 changelog version 8.2

Delegate365 changelog version 8.2

After the major update that came with Delegate365 v8.1, v8.2 brings various improvements and fixes to optimize daily tasks in Delegate365. See the details here. Run a setup: Admins need to run the Delegate365 setup after the upgrade process from v8.1 to v8.2. See the How-To at (Re)run the setup. User license quick info: When hovering over a license checkbox in the user license panel, a new quick info informs about the license numbers that are available in the Office 365 tenant. This brings more transparency for admins to see if a license might be inactive because all licenses are assigned. In this sample above, there are 25 E5 licenses available, and only 3 licenses are left (which means that 22 licenses are already assigned to users). In that OU, there are 7 E5 licenses used, and there is no quota defined. ...

Secure a web on Azure with an Azure Active Directory Multi-Tenant App

Secure a web on Azure with an Azure Active Directory Multi-Tenant App

Azure offers a great platform for multiple types of apps and services, Web Apps are one of the PaaS service, we are using much. In some scenarios, it makes sense to host a static website on Azure, but to restrict access just for authenticated users. Well, AAD can help you with that by demanding a successful login with an Office 365 account. See how this works here. My sample static website My sample works with an Azure DevOps task that automatically generates a HTML website from a source control repository, processes the web with Jekyll in a container and saves the generated HTML artifacts to an Azure website. So, I picked a Jekyll Theme and started a documentation with Markdown files in Visual Studio Code. Then, I push the changes to my Azure DevOps repository and the build process generates the web in Azure. (That’s material for another article sometime.) Anyway, in the end there exists a static HTML website in an Azure web app that can be accessed with the https://[website].azurewebsites.net/ address. ...
