The site attestation policy is designed to require site owners to make a positive statement that the settings of their site, including its current membership, are accurate. The idea is that requiring site owners to attest that their site is still needed will force people to decide whether sites are still in active use and should be kept online. If not, the policy can move the sites into Microsoft 365 Archive. https://office365itpros.com/2025/10/30/site-attestation-policy/22Views0likes0CommentsSharePoint Showcase highlights: Smarter Copilot responses using metadata with the Knowledge Agent

Hi I just had a new computer at work, and changed from windows 10 to windows 11. I have a query, which compare 2 tables, and add rows in table2 that dont exits in table1. This has been working for years, but now it, only sometimes, double all the rows. INSERT INTO MPS Columns from Table2 (Access linked to sharepoint) SELECT MPS2. Columns from table1 FROM MPS2 WHERE not exists (Select 1 from MPS WHERE MPS.[MPSid] = MPS2.[MPSid]); It compares a unik field MPSid It doubles the rows sometimes, and the MPSid is the same, in the doubled rows Has something changed, or is there a workaround?

Seeking a Shared Calendar Solution for Mixed Microsoft 365 and Non-365 Users I’m working on a solution to create a shared company calendar that everyone in our organization can view, while keeping editing permissions limited to a few selected individuals. The challenge: Some of our team members do not use Microsoft 365, and I’d like them to still be able to subscribe to or view the calendar and receive updates. Ideally, this should work without requiring full Microsoft accounts. I initially considered using an ICS-based calendar, but it seems Microsoft 365 Group calendars don’t support sharing via ICS links. I also explored creating a Group calendar as suggested in other threads, but ran into issues making it accessible to external users or those without 365 accounts. For context, I’m a Global Admin, so I have full access to configure settings in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center and Exchange if needed. We’re a small business, and our main goal is to have a centralized calendar for vacation schedules and company-wide events. It should be simple to access and maintain, with a focus on collaboration and accessibility across the board. What I’m looking for: A calendar that’s viewable by all, including non-M365 users Editable only by a few delegated team members Compatible with Microsoft 365, but not dependent on it for basic access Any tools, workarounds, or best practices that have worked for others in similar hybrid environments9Views0likes0CommentsLeveraging SharePoint for Performance Tracking Monitoring Team and Project Progress

Hi, Does office 365 + godaddy give you office 365 app hosting? I was hoping to have a public sharepoint, delve, and yammer website connected to different subdomains e.g. http://www.mydomain.com, blog.mydomain.com, social.mydomain.com etc. What apps on office 365 are linked to godaddy hosting? Or is it just completely separate hosting that has no link to office 365 apps and just bundles email support? Also what is the discount offered to office 365 subscribers on godaddy? Ideally I would to have Windows unlimited website hosting. Thanks, Jebb2KViews0likes2CommentsCompliance licenses at tenant level
Hi, We are a small organization of about 200 employees, and we have following requirements. DLP policies configuration at Exchange, OneDrive, SharePoint BYOD security Users should not be able to send files outside the org And so on as we evaluate We already have M365 Business Premium. However, after researching we figured out that M365 Business premium will alone not solve our requirements. May be compliance license will. We want to apply security policies at tenant level in our organization but definitely do not want every user to get licenses as this will be expensive for us and there is no requirement at all for our users. The question is, Is there a way to solve the above scenario?317Views1like3CommentsExternal 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.

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?Solved120Views0likes3Comments
