    “How Agile Fails in Practice” and Other Foibles

    ByMarc D Anderson August 31, 2019September 3, 2019

    Every one of the ideas behind Agile Makes darn good sense, but I have never seen things work the way one would like. In the article ‘How Agile Fails in Practice’, Sam Redmond quite eloquently points out some of the failings of Agile. But I think the article itself fails toward the end where the…

    Using Invoke-SPOSiteSwap to Swap in a New Root Site in Office 365 – Follow Up

    ByMarc D Anderson August 29, 2019September 19, 2019

    Last week, I wrote a post about using Invoke-SPOSiteSwap to swap a new modern site into the root site of our Sympraxis tenant. While it worked just great, there were some follow on issues I wanted to document in case you might run into them, too. Nothing horrible, but a bit of required cleanup. The…

    Sending Emails to an Office 365 Group When the Group Was Created from Teams

    ByMarc D Anderson August 25, 2019August 25, 2019

    No matter how long you work with Office 365, you find little strange things that don’t make any sense. We’re working at the Office 365 Hands-On Kitchen at SPTechCon Boston. On a beautiful Sunday in August inside a meat locker. (It’s really cold in the Sheraton.) You should really be here. We were testing News…

    Using Invoke-SPOSiteSwap to Swap in a New Root Site in Office 365

    ByMarc D Anderson August 22, 2019August 29, 2019

    Things we used to think of as miracles happen almost every week in Office 365. The latest thing that impressed me is the ability to swap an existing site into the root site of your tenant using the Invoke-SPOSiteSwap PowerShell cmdlet. The Sympraxis tenant has been around since practically the old BPOS days, so the…

    Upgrading SharePoint Framework (SPFx) Projects with the Office 365 CLI

    ByMarc D Anderson August 14, 2019August 14, 2019

    The Office 365 CLI is a great set of capabilities you can use to interact with Office 365 – which is platform independent. Because it’s written to run under Node.js®, it can run on any operating system. Since PowerShell requires Windows, it’s a handy-dandy toolkit for people on a Mac, for example.* Using the Office…

    Building Nice HTML Output for Tables in Microsoft Flow Emails

    ByMarc D Anderson July 25, 2019July 25, 2019

    Very often in a Microsoft Flow, we want to send out emails. Many times, we have an array of values we’d like to include in the body of those emails, and using an HTML table is just the ticket. It only takes a little work to create the HTML, but I recently had to do this and didn’t know how.

This stuff changes over time, so if you’re reading this post in the future, some screen details and actions may have changed. Actually, I hope they have changed, because this…

    ByMarc D Anderson May 16, 2019May 16, 2019

    Lots of my clients want a quick and easy way to search for people in SharePoint. Unfortunately, it isn’t as simple as it should be. On any given site, when you use the Search Box in the top right, you land on a search results page which doesn’t even have a People tab. Worse, you…
