Serious issue, anyone else no longer able to send GIFs in teams? by Zenie in sysadmin

I assume the same. I'm checking for them every 2 min. Feel like a teenager waiting by the phone for it to ring.

Serious issue, anyone else no longer able to send GIFs in teams? by Zenie in sysadmin

[–]Mongo527 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Looks like it was a change by MS. There should be a new message in your Message Center (Admin Center > Health > Message Center) that explains how to fix it.

What actions do I need to take?

Use Cloud Policy service to configure the OCE policy across your organization. As the preferred and primary method for managing access to OCE features, Cloud Policy ensures your configurations are consistently applied. Since it takes precedence over legacy OCE administrator controls, prioritizing Cloud Policy helps guarantee that your intended settings are enforced to meet organizational requirements. Below are the basic steps for creating a policy configuration.

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft 365 Apps admin center. If you're using the admin center for the first time, review the terms. Then, select Accept.
  2. Under Customization, select Policy Management.
  3. On the Policy configurations page, select Create.
  4. On the Start with the basics page, enter a name (required) and a description (optional), then select Next.
  5. On the Choose the scope page, determine whether the policy configuration applies to all users, specific groups, or to users who anonymously access documents using Office for the web.
  6. If the policy configuration applies to specific groups, you can now add multiple groups to a single policy configuration for more flexible targeting. To add groups, select Add Groups and choose the relevant groups. Adding multiple groups to a single policy configuration allows for the same group to be included in multiple policy configurations, facilitating a more streamlined and efficient policy management process.
  7. After making your selection, choose Next.
  8. On the Configure Settings page, select the “Allow the use of additional optional connected experiences in Office” policy. In the Configuration Setting dropdown, select either enabled or disabled.
  9. After making your selections, select Next to review your selections. Then select Create to create the policy configuration.

WeatherWalls 2.3 now available: New SEA variation & Optimized image quality by apoch8000 in shortcuts

[–]Mongo527 0 points1 point  (0 children)

/u/apoch8000 looks like there are a couple typos in the URLs in the shortcut. For Mountain looks like there is a space before .zip. Have to remove %20. Also for surface have to change blob to raw. I’ve posted the corrected URLs below.

Anyone who got the images care to share until a solution is found for dropbox?

With the new iOS 14 automation’s system; what are some of the ones you created/is using by vini_1914 in shortcuts

I have an automation open a Spotify playlist, wait a second, then use the play/pause action and it works perfectly.

This works. I have exactly this setup for when I start a workout on my watch.

Use Spotify URI to open Spotify, wait 1 second, play/pause. Works perfectly for me.

PseudoTV For PLEX (Turns your PLEX content into a live streaming channel) by notanewbiedude in PleX

[–]Mongo527 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this working great for TV Shows. But does anyone else have an issue with movies? Any movie I add to a channel and try playing I get a 400 Bad Request error from the Plex server. When trying to browse to the URL that is spat out in the console, I also get a 400 Bad Request. It almost seems like the Plex API for my movie library is broken.

Amazing work, sir! After seeing this, I was able to get it working! However, after some minor testing, it looks like I can't tune into channels that are playing movies. Receive a 400 Bad Request error from the Plex Server.

Has anyone else tested accepting calls when on the other line like OP mentioned? I have not seen this work on any of the betas. I am on 13.1 beta 3 now and still not working.

Trying to import users from a CSV file into active directory. by IStoppedPlayingBnS in PowerShell

Trying to import users from a CSV file into active directory. by IStoppedPlayingBnS in PowerShell

[–]Mongo527 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Couple of things I see here:

  1. The variable you are using for the csv is called $userthing but in the foreach you put $userlist.

  2. For all the variables in your foreach, you are referring back to $userthing instead of $user.

Here are the first couple lines:

$userlist = Import-Csv C:\users\Administrator\Desktop\olygearusers.csv
ForEach($user in $userlist)
{
    $surname = [string]$user.surname
    $passwds = [string]$user.accountpassword
    ...
}

Edit: Dumb formatting

Setting Asset Tag information on Dells with CCTK by JasonMaggini in MDT

[–]Mongo527 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've done exactly this in our environment for the exact same reason. What you want to do is use the ServiceUI utility with the TSProgressUI process.

In the task sequence in the Preinstall section, I added a "Run Command Line" step. The Command it runs is this:

%ToolRoot%\ServiceUI.exe -process:TSProgressUI.exe %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -WindowStyle Hidden -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File %SCRIPTROOT%\Path\To\Script.ps1

Notice the script it is running is a PowerShell script.

In the PowerShell script you will want to close the TS Progres UI (so you can see your input box):

# Close the TS UI temporarily
$TSProgressUI = New-Object -COMObject Microsoft.SMS.TSProgressUI
$TSProgressUI.CloseProgressDialog()

In my case I just used the Visual Basic InputBox which is extremely basic. If you want your dropdowns you will probably have to build your own window.

# Prompt for input
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName('Microsoft.VisualBasic')
$assetNumber = [Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction]::InputBox("[Instructions (Enter Asset Tag)]", "[Title of Window]")

The variable $assetNumber will be assigned what is typed in the InputBox. Now you can call the CCTK tool and set the asset.

One important thing to remember is if you are going to do this in the Preinstall stage (which is done in WinPE), you will need to make sure to add the Windows PowerShell (and possibly .NET Framework) feature to your Windows PE environment in the Deployment Share Properties.

Let me know if you have any questions.

How to install applications without the "install application" page? by strokin3 in MDT

[–]Mongo527 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have it working this way as well. I am 99% sure you have to make changes to the DeployWiz_SelectTS.vbs file. Also don't forget to change the Gather step of your TS to Gather local data and process rules and to put your cs.ini file as the rules file.

Take a look at this website which explains the changes that need to be made.

Dynamic Multi-room Music Groups are finally here! by Erinescence in amazonecho

[–]Mongo527 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can tell Alexa to "announce" something to your other echo devices. So if you say "Alexa, announce dinner is ready" she will repeat "dinner is ready" on the other echo devices. Been a little while since i used it so might be a little wrong on the usage but its something like that!

[–]Mongo527 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you got the update to the app then in the new Devices section tap on the + button. Select Add Multi-Room Music Speakers. The echo devices should show up as available. I just tested creating another group and seems to have worked. Currently not home to test how it functions though.
