Copilot Actions, rolling out

Copilot Actions has been available through Copilot Studio for some time, and now, a version of this feature is being rolled out within Microsoft 365. This new integration offers a user-friendly way to automate and delegate common tasks. The term "Actions" varies depending on the application.

Searching for that LineURI - Again

This is a script I have not used for a while, and when I needed it recently I discovered it would not run properly on a Lync 2013 server. I decided to rebuild the script to adapt to Powershell v3 and Lync 2013.

The script has not been tested on large deployments, so feedback and bug reports are really appreciated.
