Stop auto forward
Hello,
My …@live.co.uk emails all auto forward to my …@gmail.com account. I don’t believe I’ve set up this forward and there are no forwarding rules set up on my desktop outlook app, I believe it’s somewhere in my mailboxes account settings. How do I stop this auto forward?
Thanks
Sam

Automate – Merging Excel Files from Multiple Folders
I’m looking for a way to merge Excel sheets from different folders. Situation: Excel files are added to a SharePoint each day via email delivery to a sub-channel. SharePoint automatically puts them into a folder based on the delivery month… so in the future, there will be new folders created automatically.
I’ve tried to use Power Query to pull all the files from the parent folder– it’s utterly stumped, and won’t read the files themselves; it meticulously pulls data from the email (.eml) files, and only pulls the file properties from the Excel (.xls) files.
How do I get it to read the .xls files for data when they’re in different folders– and more folders will be added over time?

HELP! Excel workbook appears fine for all others, will not show photos for me!
I am running a Macbook Air (13in Early 2015) Monterey Ver 12.7.4Microsoft Excel for Mac, ver 16.84This is a file that I am working supplied by the client by an outside party (from airtasker in Australia). I have supplied links to both files, just in case some does not want to run macros. I have included what I see to help. Is there a way to tell how a picture is added? Because what I am doing is reliant in seeing the photos, that are no longer available, I really need to figure out how to get them back? If possible… I also have an error that came up when I tried to paste the sheet. I have read that doing it in a microsoft account, may cause issues, with other versions?I am hoping someone has magic to figuring this out as I am under the gun to do several things to this spreadsheet and cannot start until I can see! Just one sheet with no macros Full workbook with personal data removed – Macros THANK YOU in advance~

Apply Azure Hybrid Benefits at Scale for Azure SQL
Introduction
In the world of cloud computing, cost optimization is a top priority. One way to achieve this in Microsoft Azure is by utilizing Azure Hybrid Benefits (AHB). This blog post will walk you through a PowerShell script that applies AHB to your Azure SQL Databases and SQL Managed Instances. AHB can be applied at database creation time and can be changed via the Azure Portal. However, there are use cases where many databases or instances may have been created without AHB as part of an at scale migration and there is a need to apply AHB to the entire environment.
What are Azure Hybrid Benefits?
Azure Hybrid Benefit (AHB) allows you to exchange your existing licenses for discounted rates on Azure SQL Database and Azure SQL Managed Instance. You can save up to 30 percent or more on SQL Database and SQL Managed Instance by using your Software Assurance-enabled SQL Server licenses on Azure. With AHB, you only pay for the underlying Azure infrastructure costs by leveraging your existing SQL Server licenses. Keep in mind that AHB on Azure SQL Database are only applicable when using the provisioned compute tier of the vCore-based purchasing model. AHB does not apply to DTU-based purchasing models or the serverless compute tier.
Apply AHB at Scale
At a high level, this Powershell script will allow a user to pass subscription, resource group, and service type information. Then it will loop through any databases or instances that are missing Azure Hybrid benefits and apply AHB to those resources.
Please ensure that before using this script to apply AHB that you or your organization has the appropriate SQL Licenses in place.
#login into azure
Connect-AzAccount
#prompt user to select their azure subscription
$subscription = Get-AzSubscription | Out-GridView -Title “Select an Azure Subscription” -PassThru
#set subscription context
Set-AzContext -Subscription $subscription.Id
#prompt the user for their resource group name using a GUI
$resourceGroup = Get-AzResourceGroup | Out-GridView -Title “Select a Resource Group” -PassThru
#prompt the user for the service type
$serviceTypes = (“Azure SQL Server”, “Azure SQL Managed Instance”)
$service = $serviceTypes | Out-GridView -Title “Select a Service” -PassThru
switch ($service) {
‘Azure SQL Server’ {
#run Azure Resource Graph query to find Azure SQL Server without azure hybrid benefit enabled in selected resource group
$ahbSQLDatabases = Search-AzGraph -Query “resources | where type =~ ‘microsoft.sql/servers/databases’
| where resourceGroup =~ ‘$($resourceGroup.ResourceGroupName)’
| where name != ‘master’
| where kind contains ‘vcore’
| where kind !contains ‘serverless’
| where not(properties.licenseType == ‘BasePrice’)
| project name, id”
foreach ($db in $ahbSQLDatabases) {
#split the server name out the resource ID
$serverName = $db.id.Split(“/”)[8]
Write-Host “Applying AHB Benefits to” $db.name “on” $serverName
#set azure hybrid benefit to base price and show no output
Set-AzSqlDatabase -LicenseType BasePrice -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroup.ResourceGroupName -ServerName $serverName -DatabaseName $db.name > $null
}
}
‘Azure SQL Managed Instance’ {
#run Azure Resource Graph query to find MIs without azure hybrid benefit enabled in selected resource group
$ahbMIs = Search-AzGraph -Query “resources | where type =~ ‘Microsoft.Sql/managedInstances’
| where resourceGroup =~ ‘$($resourceGroup.ResourceGroupName)’
| where not(properties.licenseType == ‘BasePrice’)
| project name, id”
foreach ($instance in $ahbMIs) {
#display the azure sql managed instance name
Write-Host “Applying AHB Benefits to instance” $instance.name
#apply azure hybrid benefit to azure sql managed instance
Set-AzSqlInstance -LicenseType BasePrice -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroup.ResourceGroupName -InstanceName $instance.name > $null
}
}
default {
Write-Host “Invalid selection”
}
}

Retrieve a Consumption Logic App workflow definition from deletion
More often than we want to admit, customers frequently come to us with cases where a Consumption logic app was unintentionally deleted. Although you can somewhat easily recover a deleted Standard logic app, you can’t get the run history back nor do the triggers use the same URL. For more information, see GitHub – Logic-App-STD-Advanced Tools.
However, for a Consumption logic app, this process is much more difficult and might not always work correctly. The definition for a Consumption logic app isn’t stored in any accessible Azure storage account, nor can you run PowerShell cmdlets for recovery. So, we highly recommend that you have a repository or backup to store your current work before you continue. By using Visual Studio, DevOps repos, and CI/CD, you have the best tools to keep your code updated and your development work secure for a disaster recovery scenario. For more information, see Create Consumption workflows in multitenant Azure Logic Apps with Visual Studio Code.
Despite these challenges, one possibility exists for you to retrieve the definition, but you can’t recover the workflow run history nor the trigger URL. A few years ago, the following technique was documented by one of our partners, but was described as a “recovery” method:
Recovering a deleted Logic App with Azure Portal – SANDRO PEREIRA BIZTALK BLOG (sandro-pereira.com)
We’re publishing the approach now as a blog post but with the disclaimer that this method doesn’t completely recover your Consumption logic app, but retrieves lost or deleted resources. The associated records aren’t restored because they are permanently destroyed, as the warnings describe when you delete a Consumption logic app in the Azure portal.
Recommendations
We recommend applying locks to your Azure resources and have some form of Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) solution in place. Locking your resources is extremely important and easy, not only to limit user access, but to also protect resources from accidental deletion.
To lock a logic app, on the resource menu, under Settings, select Locks. Create a new lock, and select either Read-only or Delete to prevent edit or delete operations. If anyone tries to delete the logic app, either accidentally or on purpose, they get the following error:
For more information, see Protect your Azure resources with a lock – Azure Resources Manager.
Limitations
If the Azure resource group is deleted, the activity log is also deleted, which means that no recovery is possible for the logic app definition.
Run history won’t be available.
The trigger URL will change.
Not all API connections are restored, so you might have to recreate them in the workflow designer.
If API connections are deleted, you must recreate new API connections.
If a certain amount of time has passed, it’s possible that changes are no longer available.
Procedure
In the Azure portal, browse to the resource group that contained your deleted logic app.
On the logic app menu, select Activity log.
In the operations table, in the Operation name column, find the operation named Delete Workflow, for example:
Select the Delete Workflow operation. On the pane that opens, select the Change history tab. This tab shows what was modified, for example, versioning in your logic app.
As previously mentioned, if the Changed Property column doesn’t contain any values, retrieving the workflow definition is no longer possible.
In the Changed Property column, select <deleted resource>.
You can now view your logic app workflow’s JSON definition.
Copy this JSON definition into a new logic app resource.
As you don’t have a button that restores this definition, the workflow should load without problems.
You can also use this JSON workflow definition to create a new ARM template and deploy the logic app to an Azure resource group with the new connections or by referencing the previous API connections.
If you’re restoring this definition in the Azure portal, you must go to the logic app’s code view and paste your definition there.
The complete JSON definition contains all the workflow’s properties, so if you directly copy and paste everything into code view, the portal shows an error because you’re copying the entire resource definition. However, in code view, you only need the workflow definition, which is the same JSON that you’d find on the Export template page.
So, you must copy the definition JSON object’s contents and the parameters object’s contents, paste them into the corresponding objects in your new logic app, and save your changes.
In this scenario, the API connection for the Azure Resource Manager connector was lost, so we have to recreate the connection by adding a new action. If the connection ID is the same, the action should re-reference the connection.
After we save and refresh the designer, the previous operation successfully loaded, and nothing was lost. Now you can delete the actions that you created to reprovision the connections, and you’re all set to go.
We hope that this guidance helps you mitigate such occurrences and speeds up your work.

MS Bookings | One-Time Use Link Errors
Hello! I am encountering a new error with MS Bookings that I have not encountered previously. I am wondering if there were any changes made to Bookings recently that can explain what is happening.
I am sending out single-use links to multiple people for a Private Booking I have created. The goal is for individuals to book a 1:1 meeting with me using my availability. In the past, I have sent the same single-use link to multiple people at once (through a single email) and have had no issues.
Now, once one person books from the link, no one else is able to use the link. At least, I believe this is what’s happening. The error is not encountered when using a normal link.
I use the one-time link option because it is the best fit for my work. We do not want people to be able to reopen to same link and rebook times at their whim. Due to this, the one-time use links end up being the best option.
Some troubleshooting methods I have tried on my own:
Recopied the link and sent it again to an individual. They were still met with an error.
I have copied a single-use link for each individual, sent them their own unique link separately, and still they were not able to book any times.
I have made a duplicate of the original Private Booking, attempted to copy that link and send it to ONE individual, and still it resulted in an error.
Thanks in advance!

Azure Pipeline PowerShell SQL Script
Hello all –
I am hoping to get some help in understanding what I need to do in order to be able to execute a PowerShell script from a release pipeline that executes .sql files in my DevOps repository. We have created a deployment group which includes an agent being set up on our server.
I am able to connect to the SQL Server via my PowerShell script, but I am not able to execute anything in my repository.
How do I reference a specific .sql file that I have stored in a repository? I would like to use it in my command that I am trying to use in my PowerShell script:
Invoke-SqlCmd -ServerInstance “MyServerInstance” -Database “MyDB” -InputFile ???
I have tried using $System.DefaultWorkingDirectory but that just references a folder on the server. What do I need to put into the ??? placeholder?
Thank you in advance

Tracking system for submission packages
As part of my job, I am required to assemble document packages and submit them to a governmental regulatory agency. I am trying to develop a system to track the submissions and to save the relevant documentation, and I am wondering what approach is best.
The data I am tracking includes project names and numbers, names of people, milestone dates, contact information, review status, etc. The submission packages are large and can include 20 or more individual files. We receive communication back from the agency during the review and approval process, and these letters need to be saved and easy to locate.
I initially created a table in Excel to track the submissions and a network folder to sort the files. This worked very well, but I suspect there is a more modern approach that would work better with our company’s systems.
My second attempt was to use MS Lists. Lists allows me to display the data very nicely, but I find the ability to attach files to each entry is lacking. As far as I’m aware, there is no way to create folders within a Lists entry. Without being able to sort my files into subfolders, important communications are time consuming to find among all the submission files.
My most recent attempt has been to create a SharePoint document library. This seems to work well enough. I can create a folder and customize the columns to list the tracking data I’m concerned with. Within the folder, I can create all the folders and subfolders I want. My complaints with this approach are that it seems to lack the colour coding that conditional formatting in Excel and Lists allows, and it’s not very user friendly to create a new library entry or update an existing one (compared to Lists or Excel).
Does anyone have any recommendations? Is there a better tool or approach I could be using?

I’ve seen various instructions to contact either a “PDM” or “Your Microsoft sales or partner point person” for this, but we don’t have such individuals in our list of contacts.
How does this work?
Is it possible to reach one through the standard support portal?
Or are these activities simply not accessible to partners who don’t have any of the above?
