Play of the Week

By now many of us are finished with the mad rush to educate our users and start working from home. But instead of settling into a new way of working, we are now focused on adjusting to the next wave of COVID support – hybrid remote working. As each state and government decides to bring workers back to the office, the one thing we know for sure is that change is going to be our only constant. Join our call on Thursday, June 25th at 1PM to learn more about how we can embrace our new normal with the right tools.

We’re updating SharePoint Online search query volume limits when using app-only authentication

When using the SharePoint Online search APIs with app-only authentication where the app implements the Sites.Real.All permissions level or greater, the app is registered with full permissions and allowed to query across all SharePoint Online content to include user’s private OneDrive for Business content. When this change is implemented, queries using the Site.Read.All permissions level or greater will be throttled at 25 QPS. The search query will return with a 429 response and you can simply retry the query. When waiting for 429 recovery, you should ensure to pause all search query requests you may be making to the service using similar app-only permission. Making additional calls while receiving throttle responses will extend the time it takes for your app to become unthrottled. As we scale our system, we realize the importance of hardening the system to run it efficiently and also to protect the system and hence this change. This change is expected to rollout beginning August 2020 into the Fall of 2020.

This allows for the creation of specified Co-authors that can help design the form and view/analyze response data and allows a Form Owner to keep the collaboration locked down much further than using the existing collaboration styles “Users with an office 365 work or school account can view and edit” or “Only users in my organization can view and edit” We’ll be gradually rolling this out to Worldwide O365 customers in Late April 2020.

Previously, Co-authors created by the feature Share-Share to Collaborate- “Users with an office 365 work or school account can view and edit” or “Only users in my organization can view and edit” were able to modify the permissions level of collaboration, eg changing it from “Only users in my organization” – “Users with an office 365 account”. This ability will now be removed from all existing co-authors as well as any newly created co-authors. Only Form owners will be able to change this setting.
