Copilot in Outlook: Prioritize my inbox

on
Microsoft is releasing a new feature for Copilot in Outlook: "Prioritize my inbox by Copilot". The feature can go through your inbox and analyse the content for you. it will then mark them as high and low priority and help you focus on the tasks that are important to you. When the feature rolls out, it will be implemented as an opt-in feature for users, and it will be a "limited seating" until there is enough capacity for all within the organization. When available and enabled, there will be ways to tell Copilot what is important to you. You can read more about this on the support pages for the feature. A couple of notes: It will only prioritize in your main inbox (Not subfolders) It will not work on shared mailboxes or groups This feature is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 411302  and will start rolling out in April 2025

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 ;)
