If you are setting up a new machine and you have Office 365, Azure AD, Intune or CRM why not Azure AD join it and get all the benefits!?
Here is the whole thing in a Sway:
Once you have set up the Cloud App Discovery feature then the service will send admins a weekly report with new apps and a one-button click to start managing them.
Here is what I used last week:
Hey, are you a municipality, county or another complex organization? Do you have education users and corporate users and want all of them to be in the same Azure AD?
Good news for you. It’s possible!
Here is how you do it.
-
You do not have Office 365/EMS or Azure AD
- Create a EDUCATION trial here: NORWEGIAN TRIAL ENGLISH TRIAL
- Add your education domain to verify EDU status
- Buy EDU Licenses and The CORP licenses should also be in the same list under “Purchase Services”
-
You have a CORP tenant that you need EDU licenses on.
- Email your License supplier hand have them reach out to your local Microsoft Education Team.
- The local MSFT EDU team can tag your tenant as EDU. YOu need to provide them with your tenant name: e.g. MYTENANT.onmicrosoft.com
- Wait 48 hours after the MSFT EDU team has submitted the request.
Here is proof that it works:
Limitations,risks and warnings.
- Risks include students having access to the entire GAL
- Do a GAL segregation please.
- Volume License plans – it has not been tested and no one knows how exactly it will pan out with the agreement you have. So be warned the deployment of licenses may take a LOOOOOOONG time.
- You do this at your own risk at the moment and there is no guarantee it will work in the end either.
- This scenario works fine when you buy licenses in the portal (MOSP) shown. The problems arrive when you use a partner which sells you licenses. And that applies for most of you.
Some benefits:.
- Only need 1 AD with 1 Azure AD Connect
- 1 ADFS environment
- 1 portal
- 1 GAL or Two 🙂
In Azure AD you have this service called Cloud App Discover. It consist of an agent you install on a local machine and a web service which polls the data and visualizes it.
Take a look at this:
This service is a great way to discover what your employees/users/students/family really uses and how much they use it. e.g. You have bought Google apps, but your users use OneDrive or Box.
You can read more here: https://azure.microsoft.com/nb-no/documentation/articles/active-directory-cloudappdiscovery-whatis/
I did not know I even used all these services. And best of all you can manage them with Azure AD which means you can use your Office 365 credentials to logon to these services.
Here is how you set up cloud discovery on a local machine:
Remember that if you want to distribute this application you need to include the CERT file as well.
So, waking up to leaked credentials can be frustrating. Probably since you do not know how exactly they got leaked. Fortunatly Azure AD have some sugestions on what to do.
Read more about leaked credentials here:
This is what it looks like in Azure Identity Protection and how you mitigate the impact:
I simply requested the user for a password change. Keep in mind that the malware that did this might have stolen all other passwords as well. It might also be active on the target device, så MFA might be something you should consider.
Also have the user change passwords on all other services he uses!
And, have him wipe his device!
In order to be eligible for the adoption funds you need to have a success plan owner on your success plan and that owner need to be from the customer email-domain.
Here is how you as a PARTNER can do it:
Customer Success Plan Owner now has to approve the project in the fasttrack portal.
Finse must be one of the most perfect places to go Kite Surfing! You take the train from Oslo S and little over 4 hours later you walk of the station at Finse. You simply walk 10 meters and you are inside the finse 1222 hotel.
The Hotel is a bit pricy so try to go off season if you do not want to spend a lot of cash.
The wind and weather can be shifting and we went from no wind to 12 ms in the same day.
There is also not unlimited room here, so on a good day it might get crowded.
If you do not have a kite, thats okay. Just rent one here.
After you are done kiting, enjoy reading about the Star Wars filming here back in the 80s. They have Luke Skywalker’s hat on display.

I have wrapped a EXE file (OfficeProPlus click 2 run) in a MSI wrapper. I have used a Certificate and signed the MSI and now I am going to use Microsoft Intune to push out the installation on PC’s.
Go to manage.microsoft.com and click Apps->Select Apps->Click Add an App
Launch the software wizard and log on.
