Copilot's AI File Actions Expand from OneDrive to SharePoint soon

on
If you’ve been using AI file actions in OneDrive, you’ll be pleased to know that the same capabilities are coming to SharePoint document libraries on the web. Starting in September 2025, Microsoft will roll out these features globally, enabled by default for users with a Copilot license.  The new functionality allows users to summarize documents, compare files, generate FAQs, ask questions, and even create audio overview, all without opening the files. These actions will be available through the AI Actions button in the SharePoint toolbar or by hovering over a file. If you’re familiar with the OneDrive experience, you’ll find the interface and capabilities nearly identical, ensuring a smooth transition for users. So, how does this compare to OneDrive? Functionally, it’s the same set of tools, but the key difference is context: OneDrive focuses on personal and shared files, while SharePoint brings these AI capabilities to team and organizational content.  To prepare, inform you...

Missing Meet URL in Global Topology in Lync Hosting Pack v2

on
For some reason, our provisioning service does not always publish the meet url in the global topology. Strictly speaking this entry is not used to populate the users meetURL, but it is needed whenever you need to deploy changes to the topology.

Missing Meet URL's in the global topology will cause an error message in Topology Builder, and prevent you from deploying anything.

In a huge deployment, finding the missing domain/meet-url mapping can take some time. That's where this short example script comes in play.

Powershell to the rescue, once again :)
$domain = Get-CsSipDomain | select identity
foreach ($d in $domain){
$TenantName = $d.identity.tostring()
$TenOrgID = (Get-CsTenant | where name -eq "$TenantName").tenantID
$TenantSIPDomain = $TenantName
$BaseMeetingURL = "https://meet.domain.com/"
$NewMeetingURL =  $BaseMeetingURL + $TenantSIPDomain
$URLEntry = New-CsSimpleUrlEntry -Url $NewMeetingURL
Write-Host "$URLEntry" -ForegroundColor darkgreen
$SimpleURL = New-CsSimpleUrl -Component "meet" -Domain $TenantSIPDomain -SimpleUrl $URLEntry -ActiveUrl $NewMeetingURL
Write-Host "$SimpleURL" -ForegroundColor yellow
Set-CsSimpleUrlConfiguration –identity global -SimpleUrl @{add=$SimpleURL} -Verbose -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue|Out-Null
}
Be aware you might have adjust the script to match your environment. And I should probably mention we've chosen to name our tenants the same as their sip addresses ;)
