Hi All,
In the Microsoft Teams Preview the Feature "Chat with Self" is now rolling out.
It's possible to send Messages, Notes, Files, Images and Videos to yourself to capture something and most likely to remind you to do something. As you previously did with send an Email to yourself.
Soon that will be possible for everybody.

Hi All,
There are some News in Microsoft Teams regarding Voicemail.
In Teams Admin Center you can set the Call answering Rules
That's also possible with the get/set-CsUserCallingSettings
Get-CsUserCallingSettings -Identity a.bohren@icewolf.ch
The User can control these Settings in the Teams Client under Settings > Calls
If the user clicks on "Voicemail" another Screen appears with some settings
There is a new Website, where the user can control these Settings.
By the way do you spot the diffrence of the Language for Greeting in Teams Client. It's diffrent than in TAG or the Voicemail Settings below.

An Admin can find these Settings in the Teams Admin Center (TAC) under...

Hi All,
A few hours ago, Microsoft has released a new Version of the Microsoft.Graph PowerShell Modules.
Microsoft.Graph 1.10.0
https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/Microsoft.Graph/1.10.0
1.10.0 Release Notes
https://github.com/microsoftgraph/msgraph-sdk-powershell/releases
Check the installed Version and what's on the PowerShell Gallery
Get-InstalledModule Microsoft.Graph
Find-Module Microsoft.Graph
But remember, it's not one Module, it is a collection of Modules
Get-InstalledModule Microsoft.Graph*
I've published a PowerShell Script on my GitHub Account that uninstalls the old Modules and installs the newest one
CleanupGraphModules
https://github.com/BohrenAn/GitHub_PowerShellScripts/blob/main/ExchangeOnline/GraphAPI/CleanupGraphModules.ps1
You can run that directly in PowerShell with the Code below
#Run Script directly from GitHub
$ScriptFromGitHub = Invoke-WebRequest "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BohrenAn/GitHub_PowerShellScripts/main/ExchangeOnline/GraphAPI/CleanupGraphModules.ps1"
Invoke-Expression $($ScriptFromGitHub.Content)
Check if everything worked
Get-InstalledModule Microsoft.Graph*

Hi all,
A few Hours ago the PowerShell Module for the M365 Whiteboard has been released.
I guess it fixes some errors, as WhiteboardAdmin 1.8.0 was released only two weeks ago.

Good Morning,
I've had a customer that encountered the Error below during Exchange 2016 CU23 installation.
Error:
The following error was generated when "$error.Clear();
Install-ExchangeCertificate -services IIS -DomainController $RoleDomainController
if ($RoleIsDatacenter -ne $true -And $RoleIsPartnerHosted -ne $true)
{
Install-AuthCertificate -DomainController $RoleDomainController
}
" was run: "System.Security.Cryptography.CryptographicException: The certificate is expired.
at Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.Task.ThrowError(Exception exception, ErrorCategory errorCategory, Object target, String helpUrl)
at Microsoft.Exchange.Management.SystemConfigurationTasks.InstallExchangeCertificate.InternalProcessRecord()
at Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.Task.<ProcessRecord>b__91_1()
at Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.Task.InvokeRetryableFunc(String funcName, Action func, Boolean terminatePipelineIfFailed)".
It was obvious that a Certificate had expired.
We've recreated a new CSR with FQDN and Hostname and installed the Certificate on the Server. Still the Setup failed at the exact same point.
The Solution was to delete the expired Certificate from the Local Machine...

Hi All,
Yesterday the PowerShell Module WhiteboardAdmin has been released in Version 1.8.0.
To install use the commandlets below. Remember the PowerShell has to be startet "As Administrator" to uninstall/install PowerShell Modules.

To get the Whiteboards of a user you must use TenantAdmin Credentials

Hi All,
I recently had a customer that wanted to write an Application to read the Availability (Free/Busy) from the Calendars of theyr users.Here is how you can do that with Microsoft Graph.
First you need an Application in Azure Active Directory with an AppID / ClientID
Then you need to be able to Authenticate. I usually use a Certificate for that purpose.
As for the Permissions, the Application needs the following:
App needs Application Permissions:
- Calendars.Read (Only for the Mailbox where you make the Requests from - Limit with ApplicationAccessPolicy)
- Schedule.Read.All
Now we need to Limit the Calendars.Read to the Mailbox where the Availability Requests...

Hi All,
Since a few weeks i had a strange behavior with the "Get-Place" command. I knew it has worked before.
I did get an Error only on a newly created CloudOnly Mailbox it worked.

With the ExchangeOnlineManagement 2.0.6 Preview6 Module it worked perfectly fine
