OneDrive Notifications - Clarity
I'm just posting for further clarity on the OneDrive Notifications, seen below, I'm drafting a guide for SharePoint users in our company to utilise the notifications settings within OneDrive but have had difficulty finding clear explanations for some of the above. 1. I had never heard of this before but take this as if you don't click on a link that someone has shared with you after a certain amount of time, you'll get an email notification (would I be right in saying that?) I tried to test this out but didn't receive a notification after almost 2 weeks. Clarity on both the meaning and the time frame would be appreciated here. 2. The second notification I understand, as I have gotten alerts in SharePoint before when doing this. What I don't know is the limit, and whether it's triggered by number of items deleted or size. Clarity here would be appreciated. 3. & 4. - No issues with, these would be the more popular ones referred to for us. 5. I understand the notification but found it doesn't always work for me. 6. & 7. Not applicable for our organisation so no insight needed. I'll be very grateful of any assistance, given on any of these points. Thanks in advance, ChrisViva Engage Community Notifications
I'm looking at building a Viva Engage Community for my organisation. Looks fairly straightforward so far. But I’ve hit a a blocker with notifications. Looking into notifications for a community, I found “By default, Viva Engagesends you notifications for many types of activity in your network. To avoid overloading yourself, select which notifications you want to receive.” Looking into it further, there’s an FAQ response “Q: Can admins set default email settings for a network? A: No, the only email settings an admin can change are whether emails sent by Viva Engage must be confirmed before sendingand the logo included in email messages that Viva Engage sends. Users control their own email notification settings.” This is a problem for me. If different departments are all setting up groups, and everyone starts getting emails every time someone posts, people are going to be annoyed and it’ll really hamper adoption. Is this something anyone else has come across? Has anyone found a way around it, like setting the notification settings to stop emails by group policy for example? Thanks for your help!
Outlook 365 android do not disturb / quiet time
Hello, From around two months ago, the outlook app on android does not enable/disable the do not disturb mode automatically during quiet time. I have set quiet time for the night periods in my 365 account but it won't automatically enable it. I have to open settings then go back and it would work. Then the next morning the notifications won't work since do not disturbe is still on, so I have to repeat process manually to disable it. I worked perfectly before, but the help team cannot provide any answers.
Let me close Outlook notifications again!
See attached screenshot. Where that arrow is in the corner, there used to be an X allowing you to close the notification. Now that it's gone, you just have to wait for the notification to eventually disappear on its own after a minute or so. That arrow takes you to the new email the notification was about, which is pointless and redundant, since clicking literally anywhere else on the notification already did that. Give me my X back!
Office 365 Mailbox Provisioning events
We are in the process of automating the process of notifying the users when a mailbox is provisioned. The real need is to inform the users via email when a mailbox gets provisioned for them. Is there any events that are available in Office 365 Infrastructure (like a webhoob endpoints, queue configuration etc.) which can be leveraged to trigger the email communication?Comment Tags notifying other non-associated members as well
Some of our staff periodically get notification emails of comments left on particular documents in SharePoint randomly. e.g You comment tag person2 but person3 also gets a message about it, even though they don't have anything to do with the document. At the moment it seems to only be affecting one particular member enough that they email me about it every time, they don't want it, happens every other day. I've read something about turning off One Drive or SharePoint page notifications but they still need notifications for when they're tagged in documents, it says they're batched separately however they don't have independent toggles. Other places say or show@mentions as separate to comments, but has that since changed? Support page demo below I'm sure its just that they're subscribed or following changes on a document or something like that, but I can't figure it out.ms-teams deleted account question
Hi all, My question is this: a colleague working in a MS-Teams chat noticed two notifications of users that supposedly left the chat. As in: by their own doing. One thing that strikes me odd is that those two useraccounts were disabled and deleted way before. One of them even more than a month. I can only image that a teams-manager has been clearing up chat members. But then again I would expect a different type of notification, like: UserX has been removed from the chat. Any clues?Microsoft 365 Change Notifications Get Relevance Indicator
Microsoft 365 message center notifications now boast a “relevance recommendation.” This is a visual marker computed by Microsoft based on aspects of the change. It’s intended as a way to highlight important changes so that administrators can dedicate more time to understanding the impact of these changes on their tenants. Sometimes the recommendation isn’t perfect, but you can tell Microsoft what you think and go ahead with your own assessment of how important any individual change really is. https://office365itpros.com/2022/11/17/message-center-notifications-2/
