Native Microsoft Sync Technology Migration
- May 24, 2019
It seems we have now been converted today, as it now shows 'Microsoft sync technology' in the account info and the 'Teams Meeting' option shows up in Outlook mobile.
Running the PowerShell command shows that not all users are using it yet, but I have noticed that my device is showing twice. One for 'REST' and one for 'Outlook'.
Finally...
Also notice that Outlook mobile on iOS got updated to version 3.24.1 overnight. Coincidence?
VasilMichev When checking Outlook app account settings, what text should we expect to see for the new native sync technology?
My work account (cloud-based but in hybrid setup) says "Microsoft Sync Technology" so I'm not sure if that's old or new.
As per your work account, the text at the bottom of the account would say "Microsoft sync technology" which my personal Outlook.com account does, but not my work 'cloud only' account. According to Microsoft, hybrid accounts should be last to migrate. So your experience has also proved this to be wrong.
I raised a support ticket and, as usual, as soon as I mentioned the word 'Mobile' I started getting links to the iOS support page. After my "NOT SO FAST BUSTER" reply, they then said that the Team integration in iOS is not ready and I would have to wait. So even though they pushed us to migrate to Teams, stating it was feature ready (i.e. matching with SBF) it in fact is not.
This combined with other problems we are having with teams (SIP appearing in emails addresses in Outlook desktop) I've now told them to close the ticket and we will use an alternative online meeting service until Teams matures.
