.Office 365 #Copilot Studio agents can consume external websites and individual files as knowledge sources, so I put these features together to create an agent for the Office 365 for IT Pros eBook. Just to show what's possible, of course. office365itpros.com/2025/06/16/cop… #Microsoft365

.Office 365 the People Skills feature is rolling out to #Microsoft365 tenants. AI-generated assessments of the skills people have based on their profile and activities recorded in the Microsoft Graph aren't at all creepy... no way... office365itpros.com/2025/06/17/peo…

.Office 365 Microsoft created a big splash with its European sovereign solutions announcement on June 16. But Microsoft 365 Local isn't really #Microsoft365, unless you think Exchange Server is in that suite. A case of marketing applying branding lipstick? office365itpros.com/2025/06/18/mic…

.Office 365 I appreciate that not many people will want to run #Microsoft365 eDiscovery cases using #PowerShell. However, understanding the APIs behind the UX reveals a lot about how eDiscovery works... practical365.com/purview-edisco…

.Office 365 #EntraID has a global banned password list to block poor passwords. If your #Microsoft365 tenant has P1 or P2 licenses, you can have a custom banned password list. Here's how to update the list (stop people using Cats001 as a pw?) with #PowerShell:

.Office 365 Microsoft will ship a new app consent policy in July to stop #Microsoft365 users granting consent to 3rd party apps to access user files... like users being able to upload files to ChatGPT for processing. office365itpros.com/2025/06/19/app…

.Office 365 #PowerShell community: Don't run V3.8 of the Exchange Online module module with Azure Automation V7.2 runbooks. A DLL clash stops the 2 working together. It's the same kind of issue seen with the Graph SDK V2.27. Stay with V5.1 runbooks until Microsoft fixes the issue

.Office 365 Many #Copilot features leave me cold. Some actually save real time, like the ability to summarize attachments for received email. Wish I had this feature when I was a corporate exec... office365itpros.com/2025/06/23/sum… #Microsoft365

.Office 365 Most #Microsoft365 tenants have some unowned apps in their inventory. Here's a #PowerShell script that uses audit data to determine the most suitable owners for those apps: practical365.com/ownerless-apps/

.Office 365 Microsoft has allowed a real mess to develop in the #Graph #PowerShell SDK and #ExchangeOnline management module. In both cases, engineers removed .NET6 support without understanding the consequences. This shouldn't happen: office365itpros.com/2025/06/25/mic… #Microsoft365

.Office 365 #EntraID token protection is now supported for Graph #PowerShell SDK sessions. This is not going to be super-interesting for everyone, but those interested in running scripts on protected workstations might like it. office365itpros.com/2025/06/26/tok… #Microsoft365

.Office 365 Interesting to see a #Microsoft365 ISV create a solution for #Copilot agent governance. It's a step towards avoiding the "agents running amok" scenario that many commentators have predicted could happen. office365itpros.com/2025/06/27/age…

.Office 365 The Microsoft #Graph #PowerShell SDK now has a cmdlet to assign sensitivity labels to #SharePoint & #OneDrive files. You still need a registered app, because this is a metered API. Here are the details: practical365.com/assign-sensiti… #Microsoft365

.Office 365 Lots of folk got excited when Microsoft Learn launched their MCP Server. Real-time access to documentation for agents could be a good thing, but only if the documentation is correct... just like everything to do with AI office365itpros.com/2025/07/02/mcp…

.Office 365 The new #Outlook supports Export to PST. Two points. First, do you want people to use this feature to export data from a #Microsoft365 tenant? Second, it's so slow that it's a 2 cup of coffee operation. office365itpros.com/2025/07/03/exp…

.Office 365 Exchange Server SE is GA, just in time for admins to prepare for Exchange 2016 &2019 exiting support in Oct '25. Time to prepare for upgrades. In other news, "mail bombs" protection is now in Defender for #Office365. office365itpros.com/2025/07/04/exc… #Microsoft365
