Hi All,
Almost a Month ago, Microsoft has released the Messace Center Information MC1122163 about the Microsoft Places Management web portal.
Now i finally found time to write a Blog Article about it.
I have already blogged about How to Enable Places. You will need the latest MicrosoftPlaces PowerShell Module.
To manage Places you need the Entra Role “Global Administrator” or “Exchange Administrator”.
And there is now a new Entra ID Role “Places Administrator”.

Hi All,
Until now, for a Hybrid Deployment with Entra Connect Sync or Cloud Sync it was required to have an Exchange Server OnPrem or to use Exchange Recipient Management.
A few Weeks ago, Microsoft has published an Article with another Option.
Introducing Cloud-Managed Remote Mailboxes: a Step to Last Exchange Server Retirement With the Introducion of the “IsExchangeCloudManaged” Attribute, you can change the source of authority (SOA) from an OnPrem Synced Object for the Exchange Attributes (like Emailaddresses, Alias, HideFromAddressList, ExtensionAttributes) from OnPrem to the Cloud.
