From YouTube: PnP Core, PowerShell and Provisioning Engine SIG - May 3rd, 2017

Description

PnP SIG recording. Great synopsis from following location http://www.sharepointknight.com/2017/05/04/pnp-sites-core-and-powershell-special-interest-group-may-3-2017/

A

And so welcome everybody. This is Shep on the patterns and practices, special interest group around the BMPs I'd score and the BNP power show. So this is one of these special interest groups in this one, and we talked about the BNP side score, which is the season extension library on top of the native season and PNP power, shell, which is encapsulating actually the mpcore to provide additional capabilities. So this is May 3rd at 2017 edition, and today you should never ever.

A

You should never ever start a presentation by saying well there isn't that super cool stuff, there's some cool stuff today and not a massive amount of content. There has not been happening that much for the past weeks on the B&B on this particular area, but I know that pretty soon we will have new capabilities available and additional stuff to demo. Building new stuff always takes a while. So we've been kind of a hooked on on that stuff, as well anyway.

A

Agenda for today quickly as I have a quick look, one slider on the BMV April usage on the SharePoint Online, so kind of a showing what is happening within the BNP wilt related on p.m. a PNP side score and PNP powershell. Then we talk about the modern UI experience scanner. This is something which Burke actually demonstrated in high level a few weeks back, I think months back. We were building on that one at a time, and this has been now released.

A

So this is available for people to use, and this is an awesome tool to actually do analyzes and detect what kind of customizations you have within your office. 365 tenant related on the modern UI experiences.

A

So essentially, this one will tell if you're planning to adapt the modern UI experiences and what will be the impact which of the sites can be doing that which of the sides have disabled that functionality and noticed an inverted we're going to talk about that one today, with version there should be a quick demo from verge on that one as well, and the new schemas design refers to the site, provisioning schema. So we're still working on a new schema design.

A

This should be available on full knightly, not in may release, but it's now planned to be in the engine support, including engine support in the turn release, and hopefully we can pull that off. The whole team has been super super busy on on things, also addressing issues and contributions, but it looks pretty darn good for the feature and for the next fiscal which happens which starts on July this year, so we will crow the program. We will protein crow to initiative.

A

We will get additional reusable components and all of that in the future, so getting to the right direction. Now, let's actually move on on the slides. There is a quick question from Rolf welcome back on that one. It's a long question unless Bert has time- or somebody else has time to answer them and set the quick statistics are from April.

A

So this is more around us telling how many people are using the PMP core component and the MP PowerShell, and if you are wondering why we should care well, the clear reason why we tell this: is that you're not alone? If you're planning to use that within your customizations, so we had four thousand nine hundred and sixteen tenants with in April using the BMP seasoned core or the PowerShell or actually TAS core is included there as well.

A

We had two billion HTTP requests going through these components, which is pretty significant, which just probe to 2 billion limit, which is pretty cool. First time we program, 1 billion was in last November, as so we kind of a doubled our usage of this. These components within, let's say six months or five months, which is pretty insane actually, but it shows that the components are super valuable and people like to use them and they like to use them more and more.

A

The HTTP request number is growing faster than the unique tenants, which means that those who are using these components are using them more and more and in a key jump. We have two thousand two hundred twenty two thousand three twenty two thousand unique visitors on average for two weeks during April. So this is a key top traffic limitation for IANA cadaverous, two weeks and stay, and we had a 1027 thousand views in general and Kitab, which are pretty insane numbers as well from a capability perspective.

A

The most used capability is the provisioning engine, so we proved to 1300 tenant leave a limit last month, which is pretty significant as well, because I think few months ago we were kind of wondering if we can do more than 1,000 times using the Probation an engine in months, and now it's already 1,300, which is pretty cool and to 500 to five countries based on tenet numbers, is exactly the same as in March. So no chance is there, but top countries based on dates, the DB requests.

A

There has been a small change, so Sweden actually beat Germany on that list, and so the usage, the overall usage of the components have grown faster in Sweden than it is, has been in Germany they're, pretty close from a overall statistics perspective and but United States is our birth number one in both and that's where your head of the curve, and also due the fact that a lot of the tenants are located in in the US as well.

A

We do not have a actual average usage per tenant per country statistic which would be actually pretty interesting as well good, so moving on on other things. So one of the things before we talk about the modern extensibility scanner. I just wanted to be in point this one. This is relatively old setup, but this is still absolutely valid. We've been doing updates on this one, gradually, almost on a weekly basis.

A

So if you go aka, MSSP, B&B and MSDN, you will learn to the BMP MSDN location and in there you can find the customizing to modern experiences in SharePoint Online, and there has been a lot of updates on these articles. Since the initial release and what nations we are evolving, these articles as we move along on this journey and they will be changes related on upcoming announcements, for example, in build coming up. That's a small teaser I can't actually tell you what those are but there's.

A

Obviously there will be announcements next week as well, and there will be an additional announcements in the future in the mail and as well, but for now it's definitely up-to-date if you're interested on on utilizing the modern, customizations or modern experiences in SharePoint Online, that's a good set of articles and guidance how to get started and what what you can do here, what you can not do- and this also, if you have a look on this articles, they actually explain why, if you are using BMP provisioning engine, why certain things are not actually set for modern sites when you're applying aside, and that really comes down on the fact that certain things are not supported with modern experiences, at least for now.

A

In the future, there will be more and more capabilities supported, we'll get there gradually and and we, how would I put it from a shape and engineering perspective. Sweeping light BMP had way put in my shape on the engineering head on, and we are 100% aware of the gaps.

A

We're 100% aware of the things which we need to address and the reality is that, when we're doing designs for the modern experience is and gradually introducing these capabilities, we need to be 100% sure that we do not change those api's and those customization endpoints for next five years or next, three years or whenever and that's why it actually takes some time for us to look down the story.

A

So people don't necessarily always think about that, but because we are actually providing a service and sharepoint online, we need to look down on the API level whenever we're releasing stuff up good.

A

Now, moving into the let's say the one of the interesting really interesting topics of the day, if you're a UI level customizer. Maybe this isn't super interesting, but if you're an architect or or a 10-8 administrator in SharePoint Online. This is super super interesting because this tool will help you to understand the setup and the current situation within your form related on can I actually take modern experiences into use and Bert. Do you want to take an ownership of secretary? Yes,.

B

Sure so modern UI model user interface experience scanner, it's quite a long name. Essentially it will is there to help you assess whether the modern user interface experience can work for you in your tenant. Now before we go further, what is a modern user interface with that? We actually mean all the kind of on the new fluent you ice, whether that's a modern side page, whether that a modern, listen library, experience or the the fuel side contents page. All of these pages now have like added modern nice.

B

Nice look and feel it's fluent. It works and mobile devices. All that is considered modern. So if you talk about modern, that's what we mean now well Microsoft rolled out these features we roll them out, like we do most, if you just essentially turning them on by default, which is fine and good for most customers. So most people just started using them.

B

There are also set of customers, especially when talk about more the larger customers that want to have like a controlled rollout. They want to ensure that if they enable modern, it pops up everywhere a specific system, sorry for their end users, and they want to be prepared, maybe kind of change the documentation, because they've built around documentation for the rent users.

B

Essentially, they want to kind of have some governance around the modern user experience up until now, it was very hard for those customers to assess like okay, if I turn the switch on in my tenant at my Center. What will happen? What is working, what is not working and the goal of the scanner is essentially to help you assess what will work, what is not working and what are the things that I can influence that I can actually fix.

B

So the tool will have scanned scanners, three big categories, areas subscribers whatever you want to call it three big categories: one is around modern site pages.

B

One is around modern, listen library and the third one very interesting one is around alright, so we enabled modern but which customizations are not working anymore on modern, because we talked about that's in the past as well and in the six around like Java Script. Embedding is not working anymore. Okay, we know that now, which sides are impacted. You want to know that, and the tool will tell you so I'm going to vary.

A

Not very very sorry for jumping at that one, you said that the JavaScript embedding is not supported, which is absolutely correct. Now follow-on.

B

Which is not working on modern page.

A

Yesterday, which is not working in modern pages today, so something what we've been super pretty transparent, also in the related on SharePoint framework, and this we haven't actually talked about that one in here that much so we aren't working on a modern, equal, a a quick, lint, modern replacement even all years ago. Thank you and what a replacement for the user custom actions so and that's one of the things which is in the roadmap and we in engineering are working on that one and whenever we get that pond-life.

A

Obviously, we will update this guidance and update the documentation, update the scanner as well so, but just making sure that people do are aware of that and thank you Paul for sharing their SpaceX roadmap because we are looking into I shared us. If.

B

You see both yeah.

A

Namely again, okay, my my sky, and he did your Skype over the years.

B

A

This is fine. Okay, that's fine cool! Take it away, sorry for jumping on that one Bert, but this.

B

Is deftly good feedback because the tool will give you actionable items and some of the actions actually require things which are on the roadmap today, so the documentation kind of tells you like yeah, if Microsoft, which leaves something like that, and then she does mean like working on it. That is not there yet today. So look at the roadmap that will be there in the future, all right so I'm going to try to share my screen, not saying that felt really badly.

B

So, let's see if it works now the.

A

Fun of using joke folding, one other where.

B

A

The reason why we dog food is that the people who are attending this call community people and customers don't face these issues which we are facing and even.

B

Though, there's a language that everyone else doesn't have any sky problems. Okay, that's good! Sorry! Oh that's going negative. At least we are recording this okay good.

B

What I did here is, um let's first start look at the actual repository, so the scanner is open source. It doesn't get up. If you start using reading documentation, you will see that the instructions tell you like, ok download the tool, it's easy and run it find the C easiest. If you have non developer guide, that's probably the way to do it. However, all the source code is there. You can have a look at the scanner. You can copy it and make your own scanner from it.

B

Whatever you want to do, or you can investigate what we are doing so everything is there for you before and I'll talk about the results of the scanners. Let's have a quick look at how to use it, how to get started so in the readme there's a Quick Start Guide since you're starting use the downloaded tool which gives you the dot exe and then, when we, when the scanner runs, it needs to access all the data and this one.

B

Actually it will access all your sides, all your webs, all your lists and inside the list, all the fields etc. So it does require access to everything century because you want to scan everything best way to do. It is to create an app only principle with tenant level permissions and that's what the documentation is spreading to you to do so.

B

You could also rent that just credentials if you want, but then you need to ensure that account has permission to all the sites you want to scan so updated, but I think this is the easiest one and the most flexible one. We explained you how to create tab. Only principle you've seen this before I think, like a new user bright new to create it, then you go to tenant admin center immediately.

B

It doesn't admit to do this so because you're granting high permissions and then you can take the number of Admissions so going to a tenant admin center.

B

Not this one like this and then type in and scholarship, in put a fix on your tenant admin URL, and you will get this page. We can then look up your principal, provide the permission XML, which is below here and kind of create or granted permission see. Actually so long steps hit the trust button and then you're good to go important, really important and maybe I told it ready man, but the client ID client secret that you've created here does grant you access all your SharePoint sites. So please safeguard consider this.

B

Is your administrator account and treat it in the same way, all right, we're done were prepping, so we have our principal we after tool running the tool, it's as simple as calling the dot exe provide your tenant name, client, lien, client secret. So lo you see an example, so my tenant is called contoso, the sharepoint dot.

B

Let go so you just specify contoso and to figure out how to actually find proper urls if you're a diva next customer the tool also works for you, but you need to specify which URLs you want to use, and there isn't in the FAQ section of this with me, you can find more about how to do that once you with the tool, gets running and starts scanning everything happens in parallel, so by default, we'll click of ten threats. You can play around and kick off more threats.

B

If you want to speed up things, obviously, going from ten to twenty doesn't mean that you will have a takes off the time it will. There is like a sweet spot and that kind of depends so networking and on performance from both sides so and I. Think then, is a great way to start.

A

It yeah and you can get throttled as well, so Maureen you.

B

Can get totalled if you are too aggressive? Yes, so don't think interesting in this output. Actually, is this one so you'll see that it regularly dumps out to state this, like okay, I process, eight of the 195 side collections four percent and took me this case 14 seconds.

B

Alright, if you have thousands and thousands of cycling shoes- and we have better customers testing this with actually around 20,000 site collections, I mean that is even more and the tool will run for a couple of days because it has to eat a lot of data and so on. That's fine for keep running. It doesn't consume large amounts memory, you're just leave it running at the very end, it will dump all the data, but this status message just give you like an indication on how long it'll still run right once is done.

B

All the data will be outputted to our folder, so it creates a folder for execution, so it will never ever overwrite existing a output from previous runs. So you also have a fresh set of data and you get a set of reports I'm going to explain the report. Actual data thing that's easier, and so, if I go over here, where did I? Have it all yeah yeah?

B

This is a folder where around the tool- and you see this time- this number actually, which is the time stamp, containing all the individual CSV files that are generated now for the demo I've added this CSV files to an excel file which I have opened over here. It's easier to talk about that. So let's have a look at the results before we do that the scanner also outputs like how many site collections webs and Lystra skins motoki and it's kind of urgent.

B

So if your information is any for you to kind of performance and if you want to lock an issue or kind of talked about it with us, it's good. If you can fight the scanner version that was used for the actual run. All right now remember.

B

We explained the tool had three big categories of scanning work, one of the round pages, one this library, seven around customizations. So let's start with pages- and here you see the output of my demo tenant. So, essentially, what do we do with the page scan we're going to list all the sites where a modern page feature is not enabled and a pretty simple scan now, some things to consider? First of all, where should the modern HD chip be enabled because Microsoft did not enable modern page feature on each and every site collection in your tenant?

B

So when we rolled out this feature, we went to all the sides and we enabled the feature for for all the group as 0 side, so the modern team sites, all of them have modern page, which enables which makes a lot of sense, because it is called part of that that the template actually for a classic team site, so the SDS 0 sites, we enabled it on most of the sites I'm telling you most because it doesn't in all.

B

So when did we not enable it when we saw that the CS side, so the classic teams that wanted everything enabled? At that point, we said like yeah. If you have verbs enabled you probably don't want to have the modern page feature enabled you don't want to. You want to keep on using classic publishing pages might be correct might be not with this assumption we took and we can did enable it by default. Same applies for sites having a lot of wiki pages or lot of web pages.

B

So we assumed that if it has all pages already created, people want to stick in the classic mode, again assumption we took now everything is you can control influence set, so you can see where which sites do not have it? You can then example say like okay, give me all the SDS zero side classic team sites which do not have the feature enabled and and then I. You can example enable feature based on this list, so one learning not wearing you can get out of this one.

B

It's all right so tell me all the sites where the model page feature was enabled so I'm going to say. The modern page feature was enable column to true and where it now is not enabled anymore. Well, it's actually disabled. So this gives you a list of sites where someone like site admin has disabled to modern page feature or I've.

B

Also a service on customers where they remember the customers, II didn't know there was a tenant level switch for this and started is a big, modern page features on all the sites because they wanted to wait with it. That's the case. Do this alter? If you get a listing, you can then kind of change the situation alright.

B

Moving to the second category or lovely.

A

B

Again, similar structure, so the Reeboks will give you the URLs of the site with the list is living site collection, URL this title and then quite a large number of columns you scroll to the right. You see this quite a lot of columns now I'm not going to discuss each and every column, but talk about soft icky columns and key key key takeaways for this report. First, one is right: if I you run this tool, you will know it's like damn, there's so many lists which are not rendering in modern.

B

It can be at the twenty thirty percent or more of all, libraries on the senior tenant and that's a lot and that's partially, because Microsoft didn't built modern UI for all this cetera, certainly switch which simply cannot render in modern, because Microsoft did not build it at this point in time and let's get 300 for this. Yes at least yet. Yes right so, for example, an announcement list our task list.

B

Whenever you try, you can not have them, show up in modern, because it's not there yet that might change in the future, though.

B

Now, when you interpret the data, it's good to know like okay, this is like a star system is now in twists on not rendering modern and with the data you can tell like, if the feature gets, enabled what additional list will be ready for modern, but the most, the more interesting part is like okay, let's filter on give me all the lists which are not just blocked due to an out of the box. Reason like I just mentioned, like a list based template type or managed metadata navigation, or something like that.

B

So, let's soups for those fools give me all the other ones. This will give you a short of a set of libraries and lists. Now you can start a drill down. Okay, these are actually the little Ivies which I can influence, for example, scroll to the right or there's a number of columns talking around about J's link so which of these lists of J's link.

B

Okay, let's do a filter all right, so I see this. Let's set this 10 list of J's link and defined. So if you know that there is something common like we just discussed suppose that that new feature is available at that point, you can rework this libraries use new features at that point, move chase, link and voila they will become available for modern. Same applies for excel link or J's link is still level, so you will have options to work around and fix these issues.

B

Another interesting thing so, as my I need to clear my filters, that's clear my filter thrusts. Another interesting thing is knowing like: okay, where did I draw a site admin or one end user, disabled the motive and capability? So if you read the MSDN articles around customizing modern, you know, detector is option to disable modern at the site, collection level or what web level, or at least level, and the tool will give you that data. So you have three columns block the site level blocked about blah blah at this level, giving you that information.

B

So if your example take this one block to this level, true you'll see that in my demo, talent, there is four lists where someone this case me did turn off the modern experience and at least level and put it a classic. You can use this information later on to kind of change that again, you can format. Eclis flip those lists back to of the modern off to the auto-detects option, which is the default essentially, so it will kind of pick up the modern.

A

B

What else the data we have, which is interesting here? I one other category- is certain field types. So if you list your the default view of your list showing like, if this is data field or a task outcome, field, publishing fields or geolocation fields, then we can't render the list model again. This is something that okay max I didn't build it.

B

Yet, so we don't have an option to show geolocation fields in a proper modern UI option, for you is to you could say, like okay, I remove this field from the view, and then you will unblock the list or if you need it, you just leave it as is, and you keep you see classic for this particular list. The other thing is now: you have all data to make informed decisions around which sites can use modern, should use modern and which sites as more work, to enable modern and.

A

Maybe one thing to notice before we sum up this one and and yes, we will have plenty of time for Q&A today, but this is a greater also for analyzing, hey within distant distant on tweets off the sides are using custom master pages, even though it's.

B

Common versa, that part I was not there yet: okay, okay, but the ieu is in kind of a transition that there's a next topic. Yeah is around customizations, so master pages, as you mentioned, yeah. Is this one of the that Giri options in the scan, so the third bucket of Krupa scanning is around what are all the customizations which are not respected, are kind of thick most on a modern UI. So let's talked about a master page or you have user custom action. These things apply to classic here pages I work. Fine.

B

Now, if your site has also modern pages, which we now know yourself, we have mixed set of pages. If you flip over to a modern page in the same site, those things don't work anymore, they're not use there. They don't block the page, but they're just kind of ignored. You can argue whether the signor Orton doesn't work, I call it ignores from helmet. So the tool will give you a report, a customizations report, which is like an overview of all the sites.

B

I think customizations being master pages, often see this or custom actions which are ignore suspected in a modern UI, keep in mind again those customizations still work on the classic pages in those sides only for the model pages. These are not respected the scanner initially I thought it would be like a too big ripoff, so I split up results increase up.

B

We both so you have a consolation, underscore master pages containing all the master pages that that pop up when my demo, talent is just one master page Oh for master pages must specs are supported, are allowed and they're definitely their business to use them. But still you can have a look at it's. Okay, wife example is a master page for an SDS hashes zero for classic team site.

B

That might be very good business reason to do so, but it also might be something from the past not try to do something around I know we're going to fluent your I, make it the capacitor with mobile, maybe I, know tours or.

A

Some particle paste Seattle that master in that site collections two years back and nobody knows that is using a custom masturbate and then that might arm the translation.

B

A

B

A

Model reasons why this could happen so there.

B

Is number of reasons why this could happen? Use and repost can do use report to or together with, and if the site template in the master page to the site like okay, do we need this or should I refer back to the out-of-the-box one same extra for all procedures, similar story and then for master pages may be voting estimate yeah.

A

So so on this one, a lot mentioned so, even though this this tool right now is targeted for analyzing the data, the modern experiences and which has up lockers, but those that report itself is pretty interesting. You can actually run analyzes against your tenants on the masturbate is and user custom actions and CSS. That's super super available.

B

Yes, that's sexy psyche use which is deadly considerably. Yes, that makes a lot of sense to understand like okay, what Conservation's are living in my tenants? Well, what master pages ultimately says because the Mexican my tenant, that's, not the complete scope of customizations, but it is an important set of customizations sure, because these are the guys that you want to add, tackle to be better prepared for model, essentially.

B

Under custom actions report similar structure, so a qrl site, collection, URL, esta custom action, scope to a list, you get this nameless title and name and then connection location, registration, type, ID and the reason why we flag it. So let's have a look at this one so to see two reasons in this report: slack because in that location of JavaScript embedded, so let's take these guys so every location scripting, something that is not allowed on modern pages, so you're not allowed to embed JavaScript, which is stepping down the script link.

B

If you see this, then okay, we need to investigate your JavaScript. So when we run the tool for better customs, large customers- or we notice that there are many customers that embed the same piece of JavaScript in each and every site collection, so the same thing popped up all over the place.

B

It might be like a one customer like a banner solution, yet a one at a site, great overwrite, solution, so kind of taking over a circulation link depending on the solution you might be able to work around. It's not you need to assess like okay. How important is the JavaScript can I live without this particular functional Takamoto pages? For now, once there is a solution to do like it then and approved JavaScript.

B

At that point, you can kind of fix it situation and updated and again gives your customer the functionality they need with the JavaScript and betting in the new fashion, essentially on.

A

That particular comment: Birds I, know that we didn't actually talk about this one. Can you jump on the MSDN page where we have the motor customization, because it's really this tool is the answer for the step 2 around the modern customization recommendation. So if we go to the AMS SP, B&B, MC n, then on the left, there's the customization customizing, the modern experience and sharepoint online. Now this one.

A

The main article here is concentrating on the recommendation on the flow: how to do the transition to the modern customers, customizations or modern experiences, sorry, and and what we really want to do with this one, and this might be an overkill it again to be depends on your tenant. Size depends on a customization what you have here, but we are clearly calling out the tate there is this assist stage where you need to understand one of what do I actually have on my existing tenant?

A

Can I flip over to the modern experience is fully or do I want to do that gradually with a subset sides, first and so on. So using this tool widths now linked here, as you can see, and that's one of the reasons updates- you can actually then do the assessment for your tenant automatically. You will get nice reports and all steps, and then you have actual noise against your tenant. Oh customers tenants on on what kind of things are out there and you can make educated plans based on that mm-hmm.

B

Correct skirt and when you see something popping up in a roadmap like we're going to enable feature X in the future, which will you can also kind of look at your repo saying, okay, a feature X is there, it will unblock 20 30 % of the sides, which will block form or run, which is at that point for me good enough to roll out completely. So you can prepare and plan and target for that. So that's way more data now to make very a data-driven decisions around when and how to load.

B

Modern experience for your customs now.

A

You actually got me super curious and curious on what is the feature X if it's unplanned well, yeah.

B

Future X can be a feature Y as well. Okay features that, for me, that's fine and we move a feature and +1 in the future as well. Yes,.

A

B

There will be additional.

A

Phases in April in the moderns experiences and we're working on on getting people unlocked on the transition as well. Yes,.

B

That that's the key thing I wanted to tell you, can tell it better.

B

A

B

Thank you. Thank you.

A

For that comment, all.

B

Right, yeah I think this sums up the quick demo and walkthrough of the tool, as always, is, if you want to, will use it, provide feedback feel free to create a public rest. If you want to change something, it's there for you to consume when to use it and play around with so I think we can flip back to the slides, awesome, yep.

A

Ready Julie over again, let me yeah. Let me flip the slides back, it's that presentation and and obviously to be fair related in that comment, and that makes Microsoft guys think this is funny and we need to be fair and we worked with many of the customers for years moving them when I was in field before I move into engineering and after thatis Wilbert at the same situation, we moved and we worked with large customers and move them from on-premises to the cloud. So we absolutely understand the pain of oh.

B

A

Capability is missing, a peon is having that discussion with customers. We contour into exactly the same pain right now. We in engineering we're trying to get this stuff on blocked as fast as possible. It is the scheduling challenge. It is a resourcing challenge, which is a bad excuse. I getta, and but there will be more and more capabilities, enabled in the modern experiences gradually, and you will see announcements you will say nuke.

A

We will go through all of that stuff in the in the special interest group course as well immediately when we can talk about those things, click.

A

Cute BAM, if two slides and we can actually go to the Q&A- and there is a clear question- probably from relaf- unless my skype is actually again mistaken- and I will come back on that- one unless that's already solved, so that was the UI connor demo scanner demo, just a quick announcement or an update on this one. We talked about this one last week as well, so we are working on an update on the provisioning schema, so there will be new capabilities within the PNP provisioning engine relatively soon. The schema development is ongoing.

A

There has been a few happy occasions of family crowing, indepent according as well for certain people, and that's one of the reasons why certain things are prioritized on top of other things, but the schema development is still on schedule for getting to tune this stuff to the tune release. So we should be fine. We do have actually have already experimental schemas, which have support for adding with hooks to the lists, support for enabling tenon CDN in the library support for enabling tree view in the navigation elements, settings and also the purpose of image renditions.

A

As an example, so we're working on this one gradually as we move along some of this, is in a deference as of this in the industry. Mp provisioning schema gradually. Some of it is in the personal parent, personal folks of the BMP accordion as well. So it isn't super super visible right now, unfortunately, and but immediately where, as part of the tune release, we should have also the engine implementation ready for the new capabilities and we'll walk through the process within probably two weeks.

A

We will actually have already something the show which would be good now, I think. Actually, that is the last slide. What we had on the agenda for today, except a reminder on a new guidance which went, live I, think this one's live on last week or was it the week before?

A

But just a reminder: this has happened after the last previous special interest group and this is more around the portal customization story, and but it actually is obviously overlapping with the with the usage of the EMP provision as an example, but this concentrates more on the let's say on the classic purposing scenarios- and this is a great set of articles which is live in the embassy and around how to develop a well performing sharepoint online portals. Some of the things whether it's mentioned there is not really well have it I put it it's not it.

A

None of this stuff is a there's, a silver bullet and then to thematically everything is working faster. No, and there are a lot of considerations. A lot of planning needs to be done to make things faster and remember. Caching, even you're doing client development at Alaska, so.

B

One of the key reasons why we build the guidance is because we've been working with a set of large customers that those portals which work fine for them in development mode and and then this after calling them out on large-scale for thousands, ten thousands hundred thousands of people and they saw issues for malicious yeah and we could trace them down to like okay, you're, okay, yet homepage we're just making ten requests to SharePoint is no caching, so each is making the same requests again and again- and you have this homepage- is default in your browser for everyone.

B

So at morning time this will just kill the performance. You can build similar functionality in a way that it doesn't kill your performance and also doesn't kill our back-end by the way so and this article, the set of articles, is initially there to kind of give you the guidance best practices things we Florence, while working with us be customers, I will kind of get it in these articles.

B

It is specifically targeting sharepoint online, although that, actually, almost everything in their whole supplies to online I do am premises, SharePoint portals as well. So you could prep your portal on-premises and be a reporter which is more or less ready to work in online as well, and our specific online figures like CDN, and that is online specific, but overall, most of the guidance is fairly generic here. So root recommend, checking it out, provide feedback and I.

B

Think a next step here is complementing the guidance with some samples. So if you have great IDs to try the sample that shows some of the patterns we described, then please do so I'm open for any feedback, a submissions who aren't that one.

A

Cute and then I think we are actually an open Q&A time, so any questions concerns you can assign window. Apparently, I cannot track who's, actually asking the question or, alternatively, feel free to unmute yourself as well. I think we have 15 minutes to go through random topics if there's any concerns or feedback or whatever you want to go through was the thrall of who had a question around I think this is related on SharePoint framework. Oh I, think it's actually, no it's saying in Christian, interesting and so.

B

All of us, the one asking do on my issue: does the default in HTML, okay,.

A

Etc, so it's from obviously messed up. Yes, I did it I? Did it.

A

So this relates on the SharePoint framework unless mistaken, so on the shipment framework, when you're referencing, let's say Styles one of the things to be aware on the SharePoint framework, which is slightly off the topic of the day, because we have a separate special interest group for SharePoint framework. But one of the things what you need to be aware that when you're on applying styles and CSS files, those are automatically capsulated using a prefix. So the CSS style is not global.

A

The CSS style, which you're deploying as part of the the client-side web part, is dedicated to that web part, and that might be the one of the reasons why? Because things like different behaviors on that one, but I would actually think about. Maybe opening an issue on the SPF Doc's, which would be the location for SharePoint framework questions. And then we can have a look on that.

A

A

Gotta create a little PowerShell modular Road called import. Sharepoint references takes an element, a variable, SharePoint unwanted. Is it to do and loads MSS in place at the management, skill and PMI concepts previously stuff and has come pretty handily, and that sounds really interesting if you're willing for it, we do have samples folders folder in the BMP PowerShell repository where we have collected kind of good ideas and scripts and a small documentation pieces.

A

How could how to do certain things related on PowerShell development, and those kind of things would be definitely welcome over there, because then that helps on people to learn to write ways of doing stuff, and we can absolutely do a demo on that one as well, for example, for next seek you can. How do we do this? Is that actually roll off? Why my skype is missing with stupid super-weird? It is missing who's.

A

Sending me messages in non window, but I think we can actually agree on on May before next seek to have a 10 minute demo that one that would be pretty interesting.

A

And if you, for example, share that the BMP PowerShell as a poor request or and then we can actually have that discussion for scheduling for next session in the podcast itself, when we are killing deathmatch, that would be pretty cool and thanks Bert for sharing the URL, hopefully that spirt. This is super. Weird I, don't know who's. Sending video.

B

A

Was it was actually me, but it's okay? Yes, it is saying for me that person thanks for erasing cool.

B

Your future Skype that makes.

A

B

A

I have no idea for sending those messages on window. I can see at least two messages which state.

A

Could any other questions topics such as tombs feedback, something I want to see in the special interest group calls something which would be interesting to have something left me.

B

Something you want to show look if you have a demo sodium-cooled with with absolute size, call the library or with PowerShell, at the cool script that you're super proud of, like yeah, actually also just to share that with the community and present what you did absolutely absolutely.

A

Question around EMP, add-in, yeah I think.

B

That is only in the schema, yes, I think is. There is a way, I think that initial thought was like. Once we have an API to properly install add-ins to a site. We could have it in the schema, but falsely we don't have an API to be yet so Ladin's, yet in the schema inside Sabbath is already in the schema, but not implemented. So for now it's like okay yep, you could add it, but it doesn't really work unless you try to well. There are some hacky ways around this with yeah.

A

B

Don't want to go when I'm at those.

A

Hacky various natively within the engine. Now, if we're looking in there doing hacky ways, you can always delay a provisioning, expel provider, extensibility and point on the on the template as well.

A

Cute, something maybe dimension creative, a platform, the Dessay and discussion of round modern paces. Everything else I'm, not sure if people are aware of this, but I think it's been in the first release for quite a long time. I think that should be more visible announcement today or tomorrow, and but the adding add-ins in the modern pages will be going live in the in the office, 365 or SharePoint Online today or tomorrow or this week. So that hasn't been already active in the first resistance, but the usage has been pretty low.

A

So if you're interested on using the atom model with modern pages, that's absolutely supported in the future as well, and the atom model is definitely a valid approach in the future as well. So the SharePoint framework is not replacing the adding. It is an add-on option for the tool belt, I.

B

See mark is asking question: is there any guidance on testing and publishing a site? The fairly generic question they did want something specific. What was we're doing is when we with we testable visiting engine are a lot on a nightly basis, so we try to cover all possible operations in in the posting engine and test that, and you could have look at those test results. If you want to not sure that answers the question because Oreimo looking into that guidance on ok, so we had problems on provisioning.

B

That features didn't work after updating some things in provisioning.

B

This maybe sounds like an issue if you ever a real problem, probably the best way just create an issue for the side score. A repository described in a problem. Give all information you have like, if you have a stack trace, is something that blows up provided information. So we can investigate or you can come up yeah. You can also come up mutant, just explain it.

B

So what is ppmd community as well and and.

A

I wrote the URL in a wrong way. That's always good.

A

A

Cute in other questions, feedback concerns the dev test production model day line model, that's a classic challenge from a documentation perspective, and we are once again trying to start at the initiative pretty soon in the PMP, so that we would actually have a detailed scripts and options and all of that for the ALM story or whatever. We want to call that DevOps story on the add-ins and Chevron framework. But it is one of those hard discussions, but we do know that people would be supposed to be interested on that.

A

A

Good, that was actually salt, so cute, unless we have anything urgent feel free to use the the tech community channel. That's a good one for invert as well. A lot of people are active there or the issue list we're trying to get to those issues in their services. Well, so we can actually follow up on those things and naturist issues. This is always a challenging. Well, it's it is scheduling a challenge I'm having that time to go through things but feel free and please do keep us feedback. Give us feedback. Give us in.

A

Please give us suggestions if you're missing an API use the user voice go to the tech community. Please complain or give us good feedback on something which is working. All of that is super welcome, because that drives our internal way of working, also in SharePoint engineering, but I think we can close up for today, Thank You Burt for the great demo on the on the crate tooling. Next time we should have updated things around the engine most likely and a few other interesting things.

A

We can talk about after the built with seven in next week, but thank you, everybody for joining and let's keep on sharing. What we have sharing is caring, bye.
