I had setup a cloud Hybrid Search environment for one of my customers with SharePoint 2016 and SharePoint Online. It was working fine for past few weeks, until one fine day for almost all the users started getting the error message “Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ServerException: Query execution is only allowed with IgnoreSafeQueryPropertiesTemplateUrl=true when the user has the UseRemoteAPIs permission” when searched from on-prem environment.

In my previous article, I wrote about how can we create an simple Azure chat bot based on one of the default template, Forms Flow, that Azure Bot comes with. That is good to get us started but to make anything useful, we need to extend the bot.

Hey Guys, Most of us must have faced a situation in SharePoint world when we had to use Move-SPUser to update SharePoint with users who have moved from one active directory domain to another like if user’s identity has changed from CORPUserID to NewCorpUserID.SP-MoveUser works perfect for most of such scenarios. But there is a related area of content ownership transfer, regd. which not much of the information is available.
