Unexpected changes to Login Name for SharePoint service/group IDs
Hi, I recently noticed in the last few days that some of my scripts/webjobs/apps had started producing errors, these were to do with setting the Company Administrator, SharePoint Service Administ...
The login name changed from c:0-.f|rolemanager|<sid> to c:0t.c|tenant|<guid>
Go to a site where you have them added and get the GUID with Get-SPOUser
or to filter the big list use Get-SPOUser -site https://<tenant>.sharepoint.com |? {$_.DisplayName -eq "SharePoint Service Administrator"}
The login name will be the GUID and you can do a Set-SPOUser -LoginName "c:0t.c|tenant|<guid>" -Site https://<tenant>.sharepoint.com
I have an old blog post about this and updated the scripts in there https://worktogether.tech/2016/05/01/sharepoint-online-user-policy
- Hi thanks, first reply in over a year since I posted this ;-)!
I sorted it out before I wrote the post and spoke to our TAM after, my complaint was that there was no communication before the change was made, again, not the first time and I'm sure it won't be the last.
Tthanks again!
