Setting Alerts on OD4B files
To add to the confusion the Message Center (MC88752) published "Updated feature: Alert mails for OneDrive for Business and SharePoint " on 12/13/2016. This message reports that the email format of alerts has been updated for SharePoint Online and OD4B, however setting an alert still involves too many clicks and you have to switch to classic for OD4B. The link to more information on the message (https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Change-the-settings-for-your-alerts-49629CFE-88D0-4DFB-8766-B89861D12731?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US) points to instructions with screen shots of the classic experience.
Yes, I saw this message in the Admin Control Panel!!!
I can't explain to all people in the company to follow the "serpentine" road upper described to trigger an alarm to a specified folder!!!
A lot of confusion.
Microsoft solve this problem....
So I see there has been a lot of movement on this as the last post was over a year ago. Are we ever getting an Alert set up for OneDrive for Business? Explaining to customers that they have to turn old features on to get to a something that still works is a little much.
Anyone?
