Not able to manage UP via AD Portal

Philip_Demaree, removing and re-adding the license appears to have solved the issue. Thanks

 

A couple of other items though:

 

  1.  assigning access to the printer once shared via UPP - currently this only support accounts right, not groups? Would be good to be able to bring this through from the on premise print queue if the related security group is sync'ed out to Azure AD.
  2. Setting the printer properties, i.e. paper size seems to fail when trying to save the settings with an error about not being able to access the service etc..

Other than having to sent the paper size manually on the end point to the correct "A4" the printers work great!

 

Thanks again this is a big PLUS for remote work forces that need this ability... much better than the hybrid print solution..

 

Cheers

torquetechit_tonyd Awesome! Glad to hear you got things up and running. Thanks Philip_Demaree for helping out!

 

  1. As long as the security group you'd like to add is in AzureAD, you can use it to assign permissions to a printer.

  2. Yep, this is a bug 😞 We're currently working on it!

    thanks Braeden_Petruk_MSFT, 

     

    I will review the groups permission assignment again as I did not see my on premise security group when I tried this previously.

     

    Also, when reading through the documentation I noticed the mention of "Workplace Join" for endpoint devices. 

    Wouldn't it be more pertinent to use, "Hybrid Joined" devices as I understand it, workplace Join is for legacy windows devices (win7 etc).
