365Automatedlab V2.5.0 Released!

by Leave a Comment

I wanted to let everyone know that the 365Automatedlab has had a slight update on the validation of parameters. Nothing too crazy, but made sure that it only allowed xlsx files, and that the folder path was correct. Also for some function it will ask you if you want to create that folder path if it doesn’t exist. Would love any feedback!

Updated Features

New-CT365DataEnvironment

  • Will now only allow .xlsx files, and will confirm that the path of where you want to save it is correct.

New-CT365User

  • Will now only allow .xlsx files first, then check if the path is correct

365Automatedlab V2.4.0 Released!

by Leave a Comment

Sorry I haven’t posted much, things have been a bit hectic, and I wish I could say a lot of behind the scene things for 365Automatedlab were because of it, but sadly it isn’t. Overall things are good, and glad to put out v2.4.0 which I’ve added a function to delete all “deleted” SharePoint sites the recycle bin. The reason for it is you can’t mass delete SharePoint sites from the GUI and sometimes you create SharePoint sites that aren’t in your Excel workbook and this just makes it easier.

Also wanted to post that in a few weeks, I’ll be speaking about 365AutomatedLab virtually and once I have all the info, I’ll post it up! Anything in particular you want to see?

365Automatedlab V2.2.0 Released!

by Leave a Comment

Happy to announce the release of V2.2.0. Going forward I’ll post release updates here as well as on GitHub.

New Features:
New-CT365Teams: Updated to include Teams, Channels, and their owners. Currently it is set for the same owner for all, but will be updating it in the future. If you would like to see that sooner than later, please open an issue on GitHub.

Verify-CT365TeamsCreation: this is a private function to confirm that the Teams team was created successfully.

Breaking Changes:
None – There are no breaking changes in this update

How to use:

New-CT365Teams -FilePath “C:\Scripts\TeamsData.xlsx” -AdminUrl “testenv.sharepoint.com” -DefaultOwnerUPN “admin@testenv.com

This will create all Teams, Teams’ Channels, and set the owner to admin@testenv.com in the TeamsData.xlsx file under the worksheet name “Teams”. You can add more channels if needed if you follow the template and increase the channel number. For example, to add a Third channel, you would add 3 new columns, the first Channel3Name, the second Channel3Description, and the third Channel3Type with there correct value.

How to install: 

# Run first if you need to set Execution Policy
Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser

# Install 365AutomatedLab
Install-Module -Name 365AutomatedLab -Scope CurrentUser

Check out the GitHub Repo: 365AutomatedLab

If you have any questions, concerns, or feature requests, feel free to reach out to me and/or create a GitHub issue. I’m always looking for feedback on how I can improve this module to make it even more useful for you.

Thank you

I just wanted to say thank you everyone for your support with 365AutomatedLab! This has been a side project for me that I’ve enjoyed doing and glad others are getting the benefits that I have from it. I’ve never been great with celebrating wins, but it really is cool to already have 50+ stars on GitHub for this project. The module is still in it’s early days and can’t wait to see what it turns into as I have a lot of ideas for it, just need to find the time to do it! Again, thank you all for your support and input on this project!

365AutomatedLab Update: Now Supports MacOS

by Leave a Comment

You read that write v0.1.4 now supports MacOs! As long as you are using PowerShell 7.x you are good to go. Also in v0.1.4, you are now able to export your users from your main tenant into a worksheet that is easily imported into your dev tenant. You will only have to add the licensing(Please let me know if you want me to default the developer licenses). I’ve cleaned up some of the documentation and help as well. I’m really excited about this release and can’t wait to add more features! Let me know what you would like to see next.

For easy installation:

Install-Module -Name 365AutomatedLab

As always any PR, Issue, or question is always welcome. Have a great day!
