Compliance search is not returning any data (Powershell)
At our organization, we have an SOP for purging phishing emails from all mailboxes. Part of that is creating a search and then examining it for any legit emails before going on to the purge step. The commands below are no longer returning any data, and they used to work. What has changed? PS C:\Windows\system32> Connect-IPPSSession -UserPrincipalName email address removed for privacy reasons PS C:\Windows\system32> New-ComplianceSearch -Name "Broken" -ExchangeLocation All -ContentMatchQuery 'Subject:"invoice"' Name RunBy JobEndTime Status ---- ----- ---------- ------ Broken NotStarted PS C:\Windows\system32> Start-compliancesearch -identity "broken" PS C:\Windows\system32> Get-compliancesearch -identity "broken" Name RunBy JobEndTime Status ---- ----- ---------- ------ Broken admin 7/14/2025 8:17:09 PM Completed PS C:\Windows\system32> Get-ComplianceSearch -Identity "broken" | >> Select-Object Name, Status, ItemsFound, Size, CreatedBy, CreatedTime | >> Export-Csv -Path "C:\filename.csv" -NoTypeInformation The resultant .csv has only the headers, but no information about emails, so any purge commands have nothing to purge. Thank you

O365 calendar integration to 3rd party app calendly not working due to randomly changing calendar ID
We use calendly to schedule meetings with external parties. It was working great until late September 2021. Around this time O365 calendar disconnected regularly with the error calendar not found. After troubleshooting with Calendly and Microsoft the answer received from Calendly support was: "I reviewed the logs for your account again earlier today, and I now see some errors related to a known issue that some of our Office 365 users have reported (which is fundamentally caused by the calendar IDs returned from Microsoft are changing at random)." Looking for help here. Calendar integration with O365 user pass was great while it was working. Other users in our tenant continue to work, this issue is specific to my user, the global admin user. Current workaround is to use an outlook desktop sync app to calendly but the experience is significant downgrade. Any recommendations to troubleshoot?Copilot Studio Agent Vulnerability to Prompt Injection
Security researchers documented a prompt injection vulnerability in an agent created with Copilot Studio that allowed the exfiltration of customer data. Microsoft has fixed the problem, but the researchers figure that natural language prompts and the way that AI responds means that other ways will be found to cause agents to do silly things. Microsoft 365 tenants need to think about the deployment and management of agents. https://office365itpros.com/2025/07/15/copilot-studio-vulnerability/
Sleep Settings Too Complicated for MS
I have a laptop with W10. I went to power & sleep settings. I set "On battery power, turn off after" to NEVER. I set "When plugged in, turn off after" to NEVER. I set "On battery power, PC goes to sleep after" to NEVER. I set "When plugged in, PC goes to sleep after" to NEVER. ... Can anyone explain to me why my computer keeps going to sleep when I leave it, open, plugged in, untouched? Is this really too hard?M365 Backup Only Covers 1,000 Users
Hello everyone, I have a question: I created an Exchange backup policy using a dynamic rule based on security groups that include around 140,000 accounts. However, when I reviewed the policy 3–4 days later, it seems that only 1,000 accounts are actually included in the backup. Is there a known limitation on the number of accounts supported by dynamic rules in backup policies? Or could this be a configuration issue? Thanks in advance for your help! Simon Emery
