by Leave a Comment

I know I said every 2 weeks, but I lied. I wanted to get this out! It is now possible to add a manager when creating a new user. Also added a feature so that when you use the parameter -UseDeveloperPackE5 when creating new users and it will add the Developer license to all added users.

New-CTUser

  • Added “Add Manager” when creating new user
  • Add only Dev licenses option
  • Updated help
  • Allow some parameters to be empty

Added “Discussions” in GitHub for feature requests and general discussions

Let me know what you think and if you have any feedback or suggestions!

Have a great day!

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.

New Feature Announcement for 365AutomatedLab

I wanted to let everyone know as of this morning you can add and remove Teams and Teams Channels with only 1 line of code and an Excel Worksheet using 365AutomatedLab.

It’s as simple as this:

New-CT365Teams -FilePath "C:\path\to\365DataEnvironment.xlsx" -AdminUrl "<https://yourdomain.sharepoint.com>"

And to remove those teams:

Remove-CT365Teams -FilePath "C:\path\to\365DataEnvironment.xlsx" -AdminUrl "<https://yourdomain.sharepoint.com>"

Let me know what you think. Do you want the ability to add more than 2 additional channels? Any of the other parameters you would like added for teams and channels? Eventually, I’ll add them all, but rather start with the ones that you most use.

As always feel free to reach out and I’m always open to PRs.
