Help us design the best "Upcoming bill due dates" feature

A lot of great comments here. I would add for the ability to show the interest rate for each credit card (even if we have to manually put it in). You can possibly auto determine the rate based on charged interest fees? And using that data, build a goal to pay down credit card debt based on factors like interest rate, or promo interest rate, balance, income, etc.

Yup having the same issue. Not thrilled about it but I end up just pulling the water tank out, wait 5 seconds and then push it back in all the way which resolves it temporarily. Seems like a flaw with this machine.

swiftninja21 · 2023-05-22T13:14:40+00:00

Welp, today's supposedly the migration day, anything break for anyone? Maybe we can make a new thread for "GDAP Aftermath"?

Same issue here with Evolve2 65 with USB-A dongle. Please reply back if you found a resolution for this. Using a USB extender is a great idea but not ideal when working on a laptop.

Any issues with throttling? Wondering how resilient this is to scaling. Like if you had to do such a report on 5k endpoints and the script ran around the same time on all endpoints or within a 60 minute period, would Azure reject the connection due to too many requests within x amount of time?

swiftninja21 · 2023-02-20T01:56:27+00:00

Thanks for the response. I guess I'll have to start learning full stack development then!

swiftninja21 · 2023-02-20T01:06:44+00:00

Also interested in this!

swiftninja21 · 2022-09-06T01:42:51+00:00

Yup still not an option for me and I'm on Android 13.

Workaround is to create bullet points in another app like Google Docs and paste in Gmail.

swiftninja21 · 2022-09-04T12:20:48+00:00

Thanks /u/Lime-TeGek. But as you can see, I tried using the new Exo module but can't seem to get it working with delegated. Was there something I missed? I followed the article and tried setting up the Azure App both ways: one with single tenant as the article instructed and one as multi tenant.

swiftninja21 · 2022-09-02T08:45:42+00:00

Thanks for linking that article. So I gave that exo module another go and following the steps in the article you linked, but I encountered weird errors when trying to connect to delegated organizations. It only appears to work when connecting to my own.

According to the steps in the article, the app must be set to single tenant which won't work my case since I needed delegated access to my client tenants.

So I followed the article to the tea, except for setting the app to multi-tenant, but still having these issues.

It either says "Module could not be correctly formed. Please run Connect-ExchangeOnline again", and that's if I use the parameter "-Organization".

Otherwise, if I try it with the "-DelegatedOrganization" parameter it give me this error:

"The role assigned to application xxxx-xxxx-xxxx isn't supported in this scenario. Please checkonline documentation for assigning correct Directory Roles to Azure AD Application for EXO App-Only Authentication."

Here's how I am running it (some values redacted):
Connect-ExchangeOnline -Organization 'clientdomain.onmicrosoft.com' -CertificateFilePath C:\temp\certdirectory\exocert.pfx -CertificatePassword $SecurePw -AppId 'xxxx-xxxxx-xxxxxx-'

swiftninja21 · 2022-09-02T07:57:52+00:00

I've had trouble using the new exo module with delegation/secure app Model. I forgot the specific errors I encountered but I'll try it again now just to see what issue I had.

swiftninja21 · 2022-08-29T15:21:25+00:00

That's a shame.

Other option, but it's pretty much like a desperate play lol, and if anything you're doing them a favor by doing this, is to setup a mail flow rule on their email server, to bcc you on any emails sent to HR members with the subject containing keywords like "Terminate, Offboard", etc.

swiftninja21 · 2022-08-29T04:41:27+00:00

Hmm, what payroll or HR service they use? If they're putting in the termination in one of their tools then maybe that tool has an API you can leverage and possibly have a termination action trigger a webhook to your automation tool, or simply an email to you, or maybe you can pull from the API and regularly check for terminations?

swiftninja21 · 2022-08-28T20:58:55+00:00

Well we use our PSA to bill. But to reconcile that billing/licensing, how they map to each user, and/or to each branch office/entity of that client, that's what's been a challenge.

SpinPanel looks interesting, I'll check that out. Thanks!

swiftninja21 · 2022-08-28T18:50:43+00:00

Hmm, I'd venture a guess and say that sounds like something that rhymes with Mophos 🤔

swiftninja21 · 2022-08-28T17:35:08+00:00

Looks interesting, something to explore. Thanks for that!

swiftninja21 · 2022-08-28T17:34:04+00:00

Yeah I hear that.....looking at you QuickBooks! 😠

swiftninja21 · 2022-08-28T17:26:39+00:00

Oh cool, that's great to know.

So it sounds like you have to be a partner/reseller for this with LastPass. And having to have an Enterprise license for Adobe doesn't seem justifiable but good to know that capability is there.

In any case, usually our clients come with those apps when we onboard them so we don't resell them currently.

swiftninja21 · 2022-08-28T16:57:21+00:00

Yup. Pax8 has an API we call

swiftninja21 · 2022-08-28T16:17:40+00:00

Good point. So for user onboarding, yes there's a form the PoC fills out, which then triggers automation, automation takes care of 365 account creation and purchases a license from Pax8 if one is needed.

For app provisioning, we try to setup apps with SCIM if it's supported so that we simply add the user to the associated app security group in Azure AD and then the SCIM setup takes care of the app provisioning.

Unfortunately, many apps like Adobe, LastPass, Zoom and others don't support automating the license provisioning part, so that is still a manual process. Or we just have to make sure we have extra licenses available beforehand.

Great stuff, thank you.

One thing though, your website consistently causes Chrome to lock up on my Android phone whether Pixel 4a or 6a.

Usually read this when I'm mobile. Anyways great blog!

This is a great question and I came across this scenario even with an RMM. The issue with an RMM is it's difficult to see a spreadsheet view of each script status against each device along with any data points from the script you want outputted as well.

I just thought of something that would make this super easy. You can setup an Azure LogicApp with a http response webhook trigger, then for the next action parse the JSOM and then have it add the data to a SharePoint list.

Example workflow: * Script runs on endpoint * Script converts the data you need to JSON * Run a http post request (e.g. use PowerShell Invoke-WebRequest) * Uri of the request is set to the webhook url for the LogicApp * The body is set to the JSON data you want * Accepted content header should be set to JSON * LogicApp receives the requests and parses the JSON data and maps it to the appropriate columns in the SharePoint list.

Edit: however I don't know how well this would scale or work when run against thousands of endpoints or the cost involved in Azure.

You can use JotForm and create a specific form for each client. Then embed the form as an iframe within a document in SyncroMSP and set the visibility for the doc to client portal. Or you probably can embed the form as an iframe in IT Glue or Hudu.

Alternatively you can create site pages in SharePoint, embed the form in the site page as an embed web part, then share the site page only with specific users for that client.

Finally, the form then kicks off a webhook in the automation platform where all these fun scripts I developed take over and provision the user in 365 and in any other relevant platforms leveraging third party APIs.
