Microsoft 365 Group Secrets that Every Admin Should Know

This is the ultimate Groups demo fest. In this session I’ll take you on a journey into Microsoft Groups in both Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Entra. In the deep dive session we’ll not only discuss how to create and manage groups, but also secure them in both Azure AD and Microsoft 365. This session is packed with tips & tricks that every admin needs to know in order to get up and running as well as getting the best out of the technology.

Hi there thanks for the great content! Just to mention that for Security Groups the Dynamic Users "Membership Type" requires Azure AD premium P1 license for each individual member. Hope this comment saves some time from other viewers of the video...

Great video Andy, would love something on using the SharePoint migration manager tool or just migrating to SharePoint in general!

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

Hi Fraser, yes I could certainly talk about it. The problem is that I actually don’t have an old SharePoint system to migrate from so it’s difficult for me to demo it in person. I’m sure you can appreciate that. That said, I shall see what I can do.

[@DMBTravels2023]

Hello - Could you share, on how to restrict file sharing on MS teams for Guest users? Thank you. :)

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

Thanks for your question, I have covered guest access in a number of videos. If you check out some of them in my SharePoint and Teams playlists. This may help you. However, as I write this, I realise that it has been sometime since I’ve covered guest access, so perhaps a new video should be forthcoming. Thanks again and all the best, Andy 👍

[@ericcorvers75]

Can you do a session on how to set up MFA for a tenant and how to enforce it?

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

Absolutley

[@fatalicus]

There seems to be a skip at the start of the "Adding Azure AD roles to Groups", where is skips from before you write the name to after you have set it to role assignable.

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

Rats sorry perhaps a mis cut my apologies

[@samisami0979]

Why can't I see the group activity on my admin page?

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

You either don't have permissions or you don't have the correct licence. Or you havent clicked the show me more button at the bottom of the page.

[@ayoubkhallouky1132]
