Hi dickiebird - No, we're still waiting for a more user friendly process from Microsoft.

    Deleted just wanted to say thanks for the info in this thread 🙂

    I'm looking to rebrand also, but as a small/new setup we can do it without major trauma

    I have switched the default domain to the new brand. I'm now looking to see how to get the new default domain showing on Sharepoint, OneDrive/Windows sync folders, etc.

    Hi Maridee26  - No update, but that's because our IT department has been working on other projects and we haven't gone back to Microsoft for an update.

     

    That said, our local Microsoft team has not reached out with any updates either, so I suspect that whatever they are working on isn't finished yet.
