Application Gateway WAFv2 Custom Rules disappeared.
Hello All, We have a AGW with WAFv2 running. A while back we were working on adding new custom rules, but after saving the new rule, all of our existing WAF custom rules were deleted. Checking with Azure support, we came to know that the delete operation also works as a PUT operation for updating and/or deleting details. But we couldn't get a clear picture on what caused our rules to be deleted instead of adding the new rule. We are still in the process of exploring options to understand what could have caused this anomaly. Have any of you faced any such scenario(s)? Any insights or suggestions are welcome and much appreciated.Access Sharepoint Online via Python without access to Azure AD
Hi without going into details I would like to access the Sharepoint/OneDrive via Python using the Microsoft Graph API or Sharepoint REST API. As a first step, I understand that I need to register an app in the Azure Portal. The problem I am encountering (and I haven't found a similar issue during my research) is that I don’t have access to the Azure Portal—only the IT department in my company has access to it. Is it still possible to access Sharepoint via the Microsoft Graph API or Sharepoint REST API without creating the app myself using my Microsoft account? Can IT create and register the app for me and then provide the client_id, client_secret, tenant_id, etc. (essentially a delegated app)? Or is it absolutely necessary for me to have an account in Azure? I have zero experience working with Azure AD, apart from what I’ve read in the documentation and seen on YouTube.
Understanding the best pathway to establish Hybrid Azure AD
Hello, I have a client that has this setup: On premise AD named abc.local Microsoft hosted O365 Exchange belonging to a domain called abc.com. The on premise domain and the hosted O365 email domain are not integrated and are separate. Thus, users need to be managed separately within each environment. We want to establish a directory presence in the cloud using Azure AD to eventually establish SSO and provide a better user experience. However, I'm wondering what the best pathway would be to do that. Do I extend our existing on premise domain into Azure with Azure AD first (that is extend abc.local to the Azure cloud), and then attempt to migrate the mailboxes once our hybrid domain has been established? Or since we have a domain on O365 already (abc.com), use this as our primary domain, even though our user's on premise identities all belong to abc.local? One thing we would like to do is not re-establish profiles on our on premise workstations. The windows 11 workstations all belong to the abc.local domain, and we would definitely not want to re-establish any user profiles by requiring us to move domain membership. Thus, the reason why we would like to maintain the abc.local domain if all possible. Is there any best practice in terms of steps and what to do in this type of scenario that has been proven to work consistently? Should I establish the abc.local into the cloud first (Entra ID) and then migrate the mailboxes? Should I utilize the O365 domain already in Azure (abc.com) and migrate my local on premise domain to that? What about our user profiles? Thanks for any info/input. T
From Doubt to Victory: How I Passed Microsoft SC-200
Hey everyone! I wanted to share my journey of how I went from doubting my chances to successfully passing the Microsoft SC-200 exam. At first, the idea of taking the SC-200 seemed overwhelming. With so many topics to cover, especially with the integration of Microsoft security technologies, I wasn’t sure if I could pull it off. But after months of studying and staying consistent, I finally passed! 🎉 Here’s what worked for me: Study Plan: I created a structured study schedule and stuck to it. I broke down each section of the exam objectives and allocated time for each part. Authentic Exam Questions: I used it-examstest for practice exams. Their realistic test format helped me get a good grasp of the exam pattern. Plus, the explanations for the answers were super helpful in understanding the concepts. Practice Exams: I did multiple mock tests. Honestly, they helped me more than I expected! They boosted my confidence, and I could pinpoint areas where I needed to improve. SC-200 Study Materials: I relied on a combination of online courses, books, and video resources. Watching the study videos and taking notes helped me retain the information better. Don’t Cram: I didn’t leave things to the last minute. It took me about 2-3 months of consistent study to get comfortable with the material. I made sure to take breaks and not burn myself out. Passing this exam felt amazing! If you're in the same boat and feeling uncertain, just stick with it! It’s a challenging exam, but with the right tools and preparation, you can do it. Keep pushing forward, and good luck to everyone! 💪 Would be happy to answer any questions if anyone has them!
