26 TopicsWhere does Teams get its user list from? I can't make sense of which accounts I see vs which I can't
OK, so I have a currently rather unusual situation. I am looking at a 365 Tenant. A number of users have four accounts on the same tenant (let's not even get into why, cleaning things up is part of the reason I got called in). When you start typing their name into teams it comes up with three of them as a suggestion (I only want one) Account 1: has just been used for ActiveDirectory for permissions to the company's Distributed File System (stored in on on premises servers in various locations). This account has to the best of my knowledge never had a license or mailbox associated with it, and so has never been on the global address list, it's also never had the teams app enabled for it. I don't want this one to show, but it does Account 2: A now defunct account which used to have a Business Standard license assigned to it, but has now had the licensed removed. Before the license was removed this account was hidden from the GAL and its teams app disabled. I don't want this one to show, but it does Account 3: An now defunct account which still has a Business Standard license, but with Teams deselected in the Apps. I don't want this one to show... and it doesn't Account 4: An account shared via a multi tenant organization (the users in question have been migrated to a new tenant). So these are members (not guests) but external ones. I want this to show, and it does. Now, accounts 2 and 3 will be deleted soon, whether we can get rid of account 1 depends on whether the necessary access to the DFS can be done using account 4 (which I need to look into next). However for the time being they are all there so I was trying to hide accounts I don't want users trying to message on teams from teams, and I cannot make any sense of which I see which I don't. To sum up. Account that has never been on the Global Address List and never been activated for Teams - Shows Account that used to have a license and was on the GAL, and used in teams - Shows Account that still has a license, but has been removed from GAL and had teams app disabled - Doesn't show Account that has no license and is not on the GAL, but has teams on it's host tenant - Shows After a previous inquiry I set "Scope directory search using an Exchange address book policy" in the teams setup, but I have not set up any specific address book policy as yet. I have tried showing and hiding people from the global address list, and also the "ShowInAddressList" setting in Entra (which seems to only be available through graph?). Nothing seems to make a difference (it doesn't help that Teams takes forever to update its local cache for this stuff, so maybe a change DID make a difference at some point and I missed it). I cannot find any logic as to which of these accounts is showing in the auto suggests and which not, most notably that account 1 shows but account 3 doesn't. So, where is Teams getting its list of contacts from?73Views0likes3CommentsMulti Tenant Organization - one shared user not showing up in Global Address List
I set up a multitenant organization with two tenants. Overall it seems right, users can find each other and chat fairly seamlessly on teams, and shared users appear on the opposite global address list. However, one user is an exception. They appear on their home tenant's Global Address list, but not on the other tenant's (all other shared users appear to). They are members on the other tenant (as are the rest of the shared users), and are not set as hidden on a global address list anywhere I can see. I can't see anything different about them in any way. They were neither the first nor the last to be shared, and I have tried unsharing then sharing them again. They can however be found on teams by typing their name. Probably not related, but I will point out that the one other thing I have not managed to get working is a "chat" link on people's outlook directory listings. None of the shared users have one, despite being chatable with on teams. Any idea where I might look for the culprit?98Views0likes3CommentsI've set up a Multi Tenant Organization, but I'm not sure if the user contact information is correct
I have two 365 tenants (divisions of the same company) that want to be able to communicate as seamlessly as possible without merging the tenants. Now from what I could read and see on videos, a Multi Tenant Organization was the way to achieve this. I've found a number of YouTube videos explaining how to set one up (easy enough it seemed) but none that really showed the effects of this (I think they are pitched at people who probably have experience of B2B collaboration in 365) so I'm not sure exactly what I should expect. Anyway, I set up the MTO, shared a few users, and also found the "External Access With Trial Tenants" setting (one of the tenants is new, and so still in the trial period). I see the users show in the user lists, with the expected EXT address and a "No" for the "Guest" column, and they appear in each other's "Default Global Address List" in Outlook.. so far, so good I seem to be able to instigate chats within Teams, which is good. But if I look at their profiles in outlook or teams, then they always seem to show as offline unless I've got an active chat going on with one, and there is "chat" link for them. I don't know because so far I haven't found anything that shows, from the user perspective, the result of a correctly set up MTO. So should I expect the status of a synced user to show their actual connection status to their tenant"? So far they haven't unless I've instigated a chat, and in that case the recognition of the other party being connected only seem to go one way, so only one of the two parties in a cross tenant chat shows as connected in their respective tenants. And should there be a "Chat" link? (there isn't) Note: the above is the profile of a local user who was actually offline not one synchronized in from another tenant. I just used that as it could illustrate the two parts I have questions about.208Views0likes3CommentsA little confused by multi-tenant organization and teams
I've recently set up a Multi Tenant Organization with two Tenants, and set a few users to sync between the two. They all show up correctly in the opposite tenant users list in the admin centre, though sometimes it takes a while. Some seem to be added to the global address directory, but not others (I think possibly the first I added was, later additions are not). But most crucially, they do not seem to come up as people to do teams chats with, which is the most required feature. I'm guessing there is something I haven't set correctly, or some manual sync I am not running, but the example videos all seem to stop at showing that the user has appeared in the other tenant as a member, there's nothing showing how to then make use of this fact (such as including them in a teams chat). Can anybody point me in the right direction?115Views0likes2CommentsCan I remove/hide a user from Teams?
Is it possible to "disconnect" a user account (Business Standard license, so teams is included) from Teams, so it cannot send or receive chats, or join or be invited to teams? By way of explanation, I am dealing with a situation where a number of users had two accounts on the same tenant for "reasons" (happened before I got involved). I have merged (using BitTitan) the emails, contacts and calendars from the unwanted accounts into the users' primary accounts, but was intending to not delete the secondary accounts straight away for the sake of user confidence. So I changed the primary address of those accounts to a spare domain that was already set up in the tenant but they decided not to use (so the mailbox user(at)olddomain.com became user(at)sparedomain.com) and then aliased the user(at)olddomain.com email address to the primary account of user(at)newdomain.com My theory was that this would then mean that all emails would go to the primary account (since the spare domain has never been used in any communications before) but the users could still check their old mailboxes and calendars to reassure themselves they had everything before I removed the accounts completely. I didn't count on 365 "helping out" in the background. Where users were seeing "user(at)olddomain.com" in their Team app, they STILL see that, but confusingly behind the scenes, rather than those messages going to the same account an email sent there would, they go to the account that address was PREVIOUSLY allocated to, namely the user(at)sparedomain.com account which is supposed to be dormant. I can only assume that the routing has been automatically switched by 365 when I did the primary email juggling, but the client has not updated the display text. Anyway, I need to stop people from messaging those old accounts, but old habits die hard. I'd prefer to keep the accounts available (purely for viewing purposes) for a short while so users can reassure themselves (and me) that they have everything they need from them, hence the initial question.85Views0likes1CommentGuidance Needed on Microsoft 365 Subscription for Teams App Development
I am currently developing an app for Teams and have set up accounts in the Azure portal, joined the developer program, and accessed the Teams developer portal. However, when attempting to log in to the Teams admin center, an error occurs: Internal calls to PLS Service have failed. We can't find the tenant region for tenantId. Please try again later to join the developer program, the message indicated: `Thank you for joining. You don't currently qualify for a Microsoft 365 Developer Program sandbox subscription.`. Research revealed that Microsoft discontinued the free subscription. A subscription is needed to access the Microsoft Teams admin center and for Teams app development. I can see various Microsoft 365 plans for businesses like Basic and Standard, as well as licenses available in the Microsoft 365 admin center. I am considering the Microsoft Teams Essentials license. However, there is confusion regarding whether to buy a subscription or a specific license, especially since active users in the 365 admin center are showing as unlicensed. Could anyone advise on which plan or license is necessary for Teams app development?191Views0likes2CommentsM365 - Demo licensing
Hi Does anyone have any recommendations about licensing a demo tenant? We have a tenant which is just used for the purposes of demonstrating Microsoft Teams, some 3rd party apps and other funcitonality. I was wondering if there is some kind of discounted license, or some free 'demo' licenses that can be ordered and used for this. Main user licenses we are using at the moment: -Microsoft Business Basic -Microsoft Teams Phone Standard Seems a bit silly to be paying monthly fees for environment created to sell additional microsoft products.

Hello, I am trying to identify inactive Teams, I work for a reasonably sized company so we have hundreds of Teams setup. I have tried running a Usage Report but that only shows Teams that have had activity within the last 7, 28 or 90 days, if a Team has had no activity for over 90 days it does not seem to appear within the report. So far the only way in which I have come up with identifying these inactive Teams is to compare the Usage report with the list of Teams manually which is less than ideal. Are there any alternatives that I am missing? I have read about running some kind of Powershell script but I am not that familiar with using Powershell. Thanks for any suggestions.8.1KViews1like5Comments
