Provisioning an Office 365 group with an approval flow and Azure functions-part 1

Office 365 groups span over various Office 365 services and provide a great way for collaborating. By default, every user can create an Office 365 group. While self-service is a good thing and many businesses adopted into that direction, some companies still prefer the controlled approach. In real world environments, organizations usually want to restrict the group provisioning so that IT can control the wild growth of groups. This article series shows how to create an Office 365 group with an attached approval process with SharePoint Online, Flow and Azure functions. See how this works here! ...

Honored for receiving my 5th MVP Award

Honored for receiving my 5th MVP Award

Well, it’s 1st of July and guess what? I got reawarded as a Microsoft MVP for the 5th time. And, I was accepted by two Product Groups for my contributions of the last year: I got the MVP award for Microsoft Azure and for Office Development. Wow! See my MVP-Profile here. For me, being awarded as a Microsoft MVP is a great honor. This award is a marvelous acknowledgment for all my activities as conferences, meetups, blog articles and all my other contributions to the various national and international IT-communities. I started as a MVP for “Client Development” in 2013 which then was re-organized in “Windows Development”. It was a very exiting time to be part of that group among great personalities! Today, I’m doing mostly projects around Microsoft Azure and Office Development, so I’m really proud and happy that my community contributions ended up in these two new competencies. ...
