Sharing your Copilot notebooks - Is being rolled out

on
Microsoft is rolling a new update to Copilot Notebooks that make collaboration even easier: the ability to share Copilot Notebooks with your colleagues.  Personally, I like Notebooks because they feel almost like small, personal agents I don’t have to configure. They give me a safe space to collect notes and documents and then work on them over time. With this update, that personal space can become a shared space for a selected group of  colleagues, without compromising security or permissions. I think it is also important to note that your chat and chat history within the Notebook stays private. The web rollout began in late October and will finish by December, while mobile access starts in early November and are related to the Microsoft 365 Roadmap ( ID 506851 )  You can also read more about the Copilot Notebooks experience on the Microsoft website here . If you like this update and want to stay informed about similar improvements, feel free to follow me on LinkedIn!

The Backup Skype for Business script is now live

on
As promised in today's session, here is the announcement of the general availability of the backup script for Skype for Business on premise.

It is continuation of the backup-lync2013 script, with a few minor tweaks to make it work with SfB.
But as I was going through the script to make it compatible, I also added a couple of other tweaks.

Here are the highlight of this version (called v 4.00)

  • Change: Script renamed to Backup-SfB.ps1
  • Change: Script edited to work with Skype For Bisiness server deployment (TAP Bits)
  • Change: Shortened filepath by using hostnames, not fqdn for naming
  • Change: New destination = c:\ucbackup
  • New feature: Added a switch to set a password for certificate $CertPass
  • New feature: Certificate export will now add "usages" for the exported certificates
  • New feature: A warning is displayed if a cert is not exportable
  • FEATURE REQUEST: Send an email notification on completion
  • Bugfix: If the same certificate is used for multiple usages, the next export (with an existing thumbprint) is skipped, only the first usage is displayed

I hope you find this useful, and I do appreciate feedback so I can make it even better in an upcoming event.

The script can be downloaded from the Technet Gallery
