I am trying to create a custom form and need to a field which displays the name of the user who has created an entry in the list.

I have tried multiple things however unable to reach to the desired outcome, can you please suggest what I might be not doing right.

TIA

Supercharge Azure Maps with Overture Maps Data using PMTiles

We’ve got some exciting news. Azure Maps now supports PMTiles! This means you can overlay massive geospatial datasets on Azure Maps with incredible efficiency and ease. PMTiles lets your data-intensive mapping applications access large datasets seamlessly, without the need to load the entire dataset on the client side. The result? Faster performance and more powerful, responsive mapping applications on Azure Maps.

What exactly are PMTiles?

Think of PMTiles as a supercharged ZIP file for tiled data. It’s a single-file archive format that consolidates numerous individual tiles into one neat package. This makes storage a breeze and managing your data way simpler compared to juggling thousands of small files.

PMTiles are perfect for cloud-native deployments and can be hosted on Azure Blob Storage. This means you can build low-cost, serverless map applications without needing a custom backend or third-party tile provider. With PMTiles, you can directly request data from the file over HTTP, accessing specific map tiles without any intermediaries. Whether you’re dealing with vector data, raster data, or terrain mesh data, PMTiles has got you covered.

How to create PMTiles

If you’re looking to create PMTiles for vector data, Tippecanoe is your go-to tool. It produces optimized vector tiles for visualization, simplifying or removing small features at low zoom levels to keep the tiles compact and manageable. This ensures a smooth user experience on the client side.

Displaying and Using PMTiles on Azure Maps

Azure Maps now supports custom protocols like pmtiles:// for referencing PMTiles archives. By using this custom protocol, Azure Maps can access tiles within a PMTiles archive using HTTP range requests, fetching only the data you need when you need it. To get started with PMTiles, the Azure Maps Web SDK offers the addProtocol function. This registers a callback that intercepts and modifies requests, allowing PMTiles data to be processed dynamically for rendering on the map.

Here’s a quick guide to setting up PMTiles support:

Reference the PMTiles Library:

<script src=“https://unpkg.com/pmtiles@3.0.5/dist/pmtiles.js”></script>

Initialize the PMTiles Protocol:

const protocol = new pmtiles.Protocol();
atlas.addProtocol(“pmtiles”, (request) => {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
protocol.tile(request, (err, data) => {
if (err) reject(err);
else resolve({ data });
});
});
});

This setup registers the pmtiles:// schema, enabling Azure Maps to process requests specifically for PMTiles sources.

Add and Configure PMTiles Data Source: Use the following example to overlay Overture Maps’ building data on top of the Azure Maps basemap:

const PMTILES_URL = “https://overturemaps-tiles-us-west-2-beta.s3.amazonaws.com/2024-07-22/buildings.pmtiles”;
protocol.add(new pmtiles.PMTiles(PMTILES_URL));

map.sources.add(new atlas.source.VectorTileSource(“pmtiles”, {
type: “vector”,
url: `pmtiles://${PMTILES_URL}`,
}));

This code defines a vector tile source that uses the PMTiles URL. The map then dynamically fetches only the tiles that the user’s view requires, improving both performance and data usage.

What is Overture Maps?

Overture Maps is an open data project launched in 2022 by a coalition led by the Linux Foundation. Supported by Meta, Microsoft, AWS, and TomTom, this initiative aims to provide reliable, interoperable geospatial data for the public. The Overture Maps Foundation aggregates open and commercial datasets, offering a unified schema that makes it easier to work with geospatial data across different platforms and applications.

Each dataset in Overture Maps is organized by themes that classify different types of geospatial information, like building footprints, roads, water bodies, and points of interest. This thematic organization ensures a structured approach to incorporating diverse types of location data, making it accessible for developers across various projects.

With PMTiles support in Azure Maps, we can’t wait to see how you’ll use this capability to power dynamic and data-rich applications. Stay tuned for more updates, and start integrating PMTiles into your Azure Maps applications to unlock new potential with Overture Maps data today!

Hallo

Ik heb een probleem waarbij mijn opslagruimte op de Windows Onedrive app 0GB is. Op de webapp staat dat ik 10.5GB heb (5GB gratis en 5.5GB verwijzingsbonus). Wanneer ik een nieuw bestand probeer te uploaden naar OneDrive krijg ik de melding dat mijn OneDrive opslagruimte vol is, terwijl ik slechts 29% ervan gebruik oftewel 3,1GB / 10,5GB.

Ik heb onlangs (vorige week) mijn betaalde abonnement op OneDrive opgezegd, dus ik val terug op de gratis 10.5GB (wat genoeg is). Ook de verwijzingsbonus verschijnt niet van tijd tot tijd. Mijn totale opslag blijft 10.5GB, maar soms staat er dat mijn doorverwijsbonus 0GB is en soms staat er de juiste 5.5GB.

Ik neem aan dat dit wordt veroorzaakt door een bug? Weet iemand wat ik kan doen?

Hi All

I hope you are all well.

Anyway, we have rolled out a CA policy that requires users to be on an Intune enrolled and compliant Windows device. So far, so good.

However, a lot of our end users are Front Line Workers who will use browser based Office Web Apps for email etc. The problem is that the CA policy only allows access to M365 resources on Microsoft Edge browser, other browsers such as Chrome, FF get the “you cannot get to there from here” message.

The majority of our end users won’t know the difference between browsers and will just use anything, so is there a way to extend the CA policy to Chrome and FireFox?

Info appreciated

Hi Microsoft team,

It would be great if you could continue announcing public preview features here. These announcements have been incredibly helpful in keeping us informed about what’s coming. If there’s a new location for these updates, please feel free to point me in the right direction.

Thanks!

Hi,

I am running into a dilemma here, We have an environment where domains in onprem and cloud are different thus users have different UPN onprem and in cloud.

Users are provisioned and federated by third party IDP, Thus do not get included in the AD connect scope.

obviously this causes auto retrieval for Azure PRT to fail. 

As an alternative, We tried to use a script to manually retrieve the token, Ended up getting flagged by MDE as explained in the link(Possible attempt to access Primary Refresh Token (PRT)):

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/id-protection/concept-identity-protection-risks#possible-attempt-to-access-primary-refresh-token-prt

Any way to avoid this??  I can post the script if needed

Hi,

We have a user that since upgrading to MacOS Sonoma has been unable to print from remote desktop using a redirected printer like he normally would. Colour/printing options are also missing. The user prints from a RDS server running server 2016.
