Agent in SharePoint option is not visible in the M365 admin center
Agent in SharePoint option is not visible in my M365 admin center under pay as you go service and it's only show Syntex services option not the Agent in SharePoint. As before we were able to see both options like Agent in SharePoint and Syntex services but now Agent in SharePoint is not visible. I have also attached the screenshot where both of the options were visible but now the Agents in SharePoint option is not visible, so is there new update in admin portal or is this is some kind of issue?External people can't open files with Sensitivity Label encryption.
Question: What are the best practices for ensuring external users can open files encrypted with Sensitivity Labels? Hi all. I've been investigating proper setup of sensitivity labels in Purview, and the impact on user experience. The prerequisites are simple enough, creating and configuring the labels reasonably straightforward, and publishing them is a breeze. But using them appears to be a different matter! Everything is fine for labels that don't apply encryption (control access) or when used internally. However, the problems come when labels do apply encryption and information is sent externally. The result is that we apply a label to a document, attach that document to an email, and send it externally - and the recipient says they can't open it and they get an error that their email address is not in our directory. This is because due to the encryption, the external user needs to authenticate back to our tenant, and if they're not in our tenant they obviously can't do this so the files won't open. So, back to the question above. What's the easiest / most secure / best way to add any user we might share encrypted content with to our tenant. As I see it we have the following options: Users have to request Admins add the user as a Guest in our tenant before they send the content. Let's face it, they'll not do this and/or get frustrated. Users share encrypted content directly from SharePoint / OneDrive, rather than attaching it to emails (as that would automatically add the external person as a Guest in the tenant). This will be fine in some circumstances, but won't always be appropriate (when you want to send them a point-in-time version of a doc). With good SharePoint setup, site Owners would also have to approve the share before it gets sent which could delay things. Admins add all possible domains that encrypted content might be shared with to Entra B2B Direct Connect (so the external recipient doesn't have to be our tenant). This may not be practical as you often don't know who you'll need to share with and we work with hundreds of organisations. The bigger gotcha is that the external organisation would also have to configure Entra B2B Direct Connect. Admins default Entra B2B Direct Connect to 'Allow All'. This opens up a significant attack surface and also still requires any external organisation to configure Entra B2B Direct Connect as well. I really want to make this work, but it need to be as simple as possible for the end users sharing sensitive or confidential content. And all of the above options seem to have significant down-sides. I'm really hoping someone who uses Sensitivity Labels on a day-to-day basis can provide some help or advice to share their experiences. Thanks, Oz.
Unable to authenticate with MSAL using a certificate
Hi guys, I'm using the certificate authentication for my WinForms app to connect to SharePoint and Graph API. I followed this article to create the certificate https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity-platform/howto-create-self-signed-certificate Uploaded the certificate to the App Registration, gave all appropriate permissions. However, when I tried to connect to SharePoint or the Graph API, I got this error A configuration issue is preventing authentication - check the error message from the server for details. You can modify the configuration in the application registration portal. See https://aka.ms/msal-net-invalid-client for details. Original exception: AADSTS700021: Client assertion application identifier doesn't match 'client_id' parameter. Review the documentation at https://learn.microsoft.com/entra/identity-platform/certificate-credentials . Microsoft.Graph.ServiceException: Code: generalException Message: An error occurred sending the request. BUT, this only happened on 1 specific machine running Windows 11 Pro. I tested on 4-5 different machines (both W10 and W11), they didn't get this error. I tried verifying the cert thumbprint which matched the one uploaded on the App Registrations. The certificate is not stored in the machine cert store, I use X509KeyStorageFlags.EphemeralKeySet when calling it. Not sure what else to check.Troubleshooting Common Issues in SharePoint Online

Hi all! When Agents were first introduced into Copilot Chat for free, you used to be able to upload 20 knowledge resources. Now this has been cut back to 4 web URLS only, and each of these can only be 2 forward slashes deep - we are really struggling on using agents successfully. Based in the UK, all of the Department for Education content is more than // deep in their web. We can't upload docs from the PDF's and most other juicy web content is much deeper in the domains than 2 x // I would love to hear from other Copilot Chat Agent users in how you are working with the barriers of the free version in your setting. Paid licenses are just not an option on UK school budgets sadly. Thanks all!Chromium 141 Update Will Affect Offline Access for SharePoint Online and OneDrive for Business
An update for Chromium 141 can affect the ability of SharePoint Online and OneDrive for Business to access offline content, including files and lists and lead to degraded performance. The change is designed to improve user privacy, but some Microsoft 365 apps need browsers to be able to access local files, notably for OneDrive synchronization. Prepare by upgrading the OneDrive Sync client and distributing a new policy to workstations. https://office365itpros.com/2025/10/07/chromium-141-spo/The Future of SharePoint AI, Agents, and Smarter Collaboration (2025 Update)
