Anyone have recommended resources for learning SharePoint Online? I'm not trying to be an administrator but I need to better understand the functionality and how I can use it with Power Apps, Power BI, and Power Automate.

If it gets deep, you are basically a librarian. I'm not joking either, it gets real serious managing documents. In reality, it's a super fancy complex web frontend for mapped drives.

I just learned by doing, and making a million M365 tickets asking how to do x as I went.

I'm actually digging into power automate right now. The use-case i'm championing is getting HRIS data in to my AD and EntraID. I've built out a webhook and api flow to handle onboarding and user changes. I'll be dipping my toes into making a power app (simple user directory for my shipping dept).

PA can be a nice tool but I still wouldn’t trust it fully for bulk production work like HR/IDM tasks. If you do make sure you include good error handling so something doesn’t get stuck and suddenly everyone’s last name becomes Fitzgerald.

We let our developers use power automate once and now they keep trying to make apps that take input via form, process with power automate, and use sharepoint lists as the database and we've had to make them stop this even going so far to get microsoft involved to also tell them stop. It is cool for users to do workflow stuff but line of business apps should be proper services referring to sql, etc. I'm our GA and therefore sharepoint admin and we have to beg people please don't do X we wont help you if you break poo poo in the teams or sharepoint back-end and then they do it anyways and welp. The absolute worst is people mucking with permissions in the sharepoint site of a team. Fortunately I just to access control and create bare sites while others have to do the building. (I'm not a webdev ) I think if you have the chance to get into sharepoint...don't. It is an extremely cursed system. Though i did recently find an even worse one and that is power platform and dynamics. At least we nuked our onmprem SP setup finally.

I'm touching O365 SP for the first time in a while, am I crazy or did they change how you apply/change permissions within a doc library/site? *edit* Never mind seems mostly the same just buried under various levels of bullshit that wasn't there before.

Speaking of not touching sharepoint, if you have processes blowing up today its because MS nuked the PnP powershell multi tenant app id out of AAD. https://github.com/pnp/powershell/issues/4250

I'm about to lose my mind with Intune password policy. Long story short, we're trying to push out a local admin account with a specific username and password to run a process for a project we're doing***. However, apparently if you have any password policies at all in Intune, whatever local admin account you push out will have the "user must change password at next login" flag checked, and it CAN'T be unchecked. I totally get why, there's no way that Intune could know if the pre-set password meets the criteria of the policies, but oh my god why is it so difficult just to push out a simple username and password to my machines. ***Yes I know LAPS is the better solution, this is just a one time thing and we're removing the account afterward.

Is Group Policy an option? You should be able to do it with a GPO, or use Intune to create the user and Group Policy to do the rest.

Most of these machines are remote and never check in with the domain controllers - we're hybrid, so we lean more heavily on the Azure AD side of things.

Just powershell script it and deploy as a win32 app. Intune supports powershell scripts natively too but the basic scripts are kinda rear end and while remediations are really nice, they might be more complexity than you want for this.

I've built out a webhook and api flow to handle onboarding and user changes. I'll be dipping my toes into making a power app (simple user directory for my shipping dept). We’ve used Power Automate/Power Automate Desktop with GraphAPI/PoSh to interface with our ticketing system and HRIS system to automate onboarding and offboarding for employees and some vendors. There are pros and cons to PA and PAD. They’re very different from each other. If you’re all Entra ID, once you’ve got your mind wrapped around Graph API it’s not awful to build stuff in PA to do whatever. My thought when I looked at power apps was “I’d be better off just picking a language and learning to code.” Power Apps are janky as poo poo IMO and should be avoided if possible. It’s also possible I’ve just only ever seen bad Power Apps

If you’re looking for storage at scale, ABORT ABORT ABORT and find something better.

Count Thrashula posted:I'm about to lose my mind with Intune password policy. Are you pushing out a domain/Entra account, or a machine local account? Does whatever you want to run need a network identity or a cloud identity, or does it just need to run on the local machine and not identify with external services as that account? If you can make do with a machine local user, then look into pushing out a PowerShell script that uses the Microsoft.PowerShell.LocalAccounts module to create/manage a local user for the purpose.
