| MC1143276 | (Updated) Microsoft Viva Engage: Smarter delivery of Community Announcement notifications | Previously, when an admin created a new Community Announcement, this would send a notification in Teams and Mobile Push immediately, followed by an email notification two hours later if the announcement was not opened already in Teams and/or Mobile Push. With this new update: Users will now receive the notification in one channel only-either Teams, Mobile Push, or Email. This notification channel may differ by user and is selected based on where a user has opened Engage notifications most frequently in the past 30 days. If the announcement is not opened within two hours in the first notification channel, a secondary notification channel will be sent, also determined by where a user opens Engage notifications most frequently. We will continue to respect all user notification preferences and settings where applicable. If a notification channel is disabled or the app is not installed, it will not be selected as a potential notification channel for the Community Announcement delivery. Note that this change applies only to regular Community Announcements in Viva Engage and does not affect the "essential" Community Announcement feature (where admins can still select the checkbox to send emails immediately -this functionality remains unchanged). What you can do to prepare No admin action is required. However, we recommend: Informing your users about the new notifications change to reduce confusion Monitoring user feedback and engagement with Community Announcements' notifications delivery Reviewing internal communication strategies to align with the new notification's behavior Compliance AreaExplanation Does the change alter how existing customer data is processed, stored, or accessed?Yes. Notification delivery logic now uses user behavior data (last 30 days of notification engagement) to determine delivery channels. This data is used to personalize delivery but is not stored permanently. Does the change introduce or significantly modify AI/ML or agent capabilities that interact with or provide access to customer data?Yes. The system uses behavioral data to determine the most effective notification channel, which is a form of machine learning-based personalization. Does the change provide a new way of communicating between users, tenants, or subscriptions?Yes. The change modifies how users receive communications (Community Announcements) by introducing a dynamic, behavior-based delivery method. |

Note that this change applies only to regular Community Announcements in Viva Engage and does not affect the "immediate" Community Announcement feature (where admins can still select the checkbox to send emails immediately -this functionality remains unchanged). Can I still notify Community users via email immediately (along with other notification channels)? Yes! In Viva Engage, we offer an option to send an "immediate" Community Announcement. With this feature, Community admins can choose to send email notifications immediately after posting a Community Announcement, even if a user has opted out of receiving emails. All other notification channels will also send immediately along with email, including Teams and Mobile Push. Therefore, we recommend admins to use this feature when there is a Community Announcement that requires immediate attention from users. Community Admins can find this "immediate" Community Announcement option by firstly navigating to the announcement publisher and selecting the hyperlinked "option to send emails immediately" at the bottom of the publisher. Upon clicking this option, an additional pop-up box will open called "Immediate email delivery". By selecting this checkbox, this will ensure that all three notification channels - Email, Teams, and Mobile Push - will send to customers immediately after a Community Announcement is made. What you can do to prepare No admin action is required.

| MC1055555 | (Updated) Microsoft SharePoint Online: We will remove retired DISCO and WSDL web pages | Updated May 22, 2025: We have updated the content. Thank you for your patience. ASP.NET DISCO and WSDL pages were the web service APIs for customers who wanted to create a proxy for their web services. The retirement of ASP.NET web services was announced in 2013 and should not be used. We recommend using Microsoft Graph for remote operations where possible. We will remove these pages from Microsoft SharePoint Online starting mid-August 2025 and ending in mid-September 2025. Please refer to the following information regarding the DISCO and WSDL endpoints These endpoints were originally designed for use with development tools from the early 2000s and were never a preferred or widely adopted method for generating proxy classes in SharePoint development. These endpoints are not tenant-specific and are not associated with any individual tenant's configuration or ownership. Usage across the SharePoint Online service is extremely rare. In fact, most of these endpoints show zero usage. These endpoints were primarily used in legacy development scenarios and are not required for modern SharePoint development practices. If your organization has an internal development team, we recommend consulting with them to confirm whether these endpoints are in use. However, it is extremely unlikely that they are being used in any current development workflows.

Updated September 4, 2025: After further review, the original deprecation decision and goal remain unchanged. At this time, we are deferring the effective date. We will communicate the timeline when we are ready to proceed and remove these web pages. We apologize for any inconvenience. ASP.NET DISCO and WSDL pages were the web service APIs for customers who wanted to create a proxy for their web services. The retirement of ASP.NET web services was announced in 2013 and should not be used. We encourage customers to move away from consuming these pages and use Microsoft Graph for remote operations where possible.

| MC1123830 | (Updated) Microsoft Entra: Action Required – Update Conditional Access Policies for Azure DevOps Sign-ins | Introduction Microsoft Entra is updating how Conditional Access (CA) policies apply to Azure DevOps sign-ins. Azure DevOps will no longer rely on the Azure Resource Manager (ARM) resource during sign-in or token refresh flows. This change ensures that access controls are applied directly to Azure DevOps. Organizations must update their Conditional Access policies to explicitly include Azure DevOps to maintain secure access. When this will happen This change will take effect starting September 2, 2025, and will be fully enforced by September 4, 2025, across all environments. How does this affect your organization? If your organization has Conditional Access policies targeting the Windows Azure Service Management API (App ID: 797f4846-ba00-4fd7-ba43-dac1f8f63013), those policies will no longer apply to Azure DevOps sign-ins. This may result in unprotected access unless these policies are updated to include Azure DevOps (App ID: 499b84ac-1321-427f-aa17-267ca6975798). Access controls such as MFA or compliant device requirements may not be enforced unless policies are updated. If you already have a policy that targets all users and all cloud apps and does not explicitly exclude Azure DevOps, no action is required-Azure DevOps sign-ins will continue to be protected. This change does not introduce any new user-facing experience or UI changes. Sign-in activity can be monitored using Microsoft Entra ID sign-in logs. Licensing requirement: Microsoft Entra ID P1 or P2 is required. There are no functional differences by license type. This is a feature change, not a new feature, so trial or preview options are not applicable. Unlicensed users may also be impacted. Existing Conditional Access policies will be affected, specifically those targeting the Windows Azure Service Management API. A small subset of tenants may see the app name as "Microsoft Visual Studio Team Services" instead of "Azure DevOps"-the App ID remains the same. What do you need to do to prepare? To ensure continued protection of Azure DevOps sign-ins, administrators should: Review existing Conditional Access policies - Identify any policies that target the Windows Azure Service Management API. Update policies to include Azure DevOps: Go to the Entra admin center. Navigate to Entra ID > Conditional Access > Policies. Select the relevant policy. Under Target resources, choose Select resources and add Azure DevOps (App ID: 499b84ac-1321-427f-aa17-267ca6975798). Save the policy. Use Entra ID group membership to scope policies to specific users or groups. Monitor sign-in activity using Entra ID sign-in logs. Review licensing requirements - Conditional Access requires Microsoft Entra ID P1 or higher. Organizations without the required license may explore trial options.
