MC191391 | New Feature: Global reader built-in role for read-only administrative access across Microsoft 365 | Global reader is the read-only counterpart to global administrator. Users in this role can read settings and administrative information across Microsoft 365 services but cannot take management actions. We?ve created the global reader role to help reduce the number of global administrators in your organization. Because global administrator accounts are powerful and vulnerable to attack, we recommend that you have fewer than five global administrators. Assign global reader instead of global administrator for planning, audits, or investigations. Use global reader in combination with other limited admin roles like Exchange administrator to make it easier to get work done without the invoking the global administrator role. Global reader works with Microsoft 365 admin center, Exchange admin center, Teams admin center, Security center, Compliance center, Azure AD admin center, and Device Management admin center. Note; At public preview launch, global reader does not work with SharePoint, Privileged Access Management, Customer Lockbox, sensitivity labels, or the following features within Teams; Teams Lifecycle, Reporting Call Analytics, IP Phone Device Management, and App Catalog. All of these services will work with global reader in the future. |

MC191717 | New Feature: Delegates can change delegators' settings | Shared line appearance is part of the delegation feature that lets a user choose a delegate to answer or handle calls on their behalf. In the context of shared line appearance, a manager is someone who authorizes a delegate to make or receive calls on their behalf, and a delegate can make and receive calls on behalf of someone else. When a manager has set up manager/delegate relationships in Teams, she can grant any delegate the ability to change call settings and add/remove other delegates via Change call and delegate settings in the Teams desktop client settings. |
