Fixed – Sign in required. Your device is having problems with your work or school account. Sign in again to access your organizations resources


Recently we were getting the below pop up in Windows every time after restart.

The fix was to Disconnect the work / school account.

Navigate to Accounts è Access work or school

Click on Disconnect the work or school acount.

That fixed the issue for us.

Security Enhancements – 24 hours maximum user session timeout in Dynamics 365 / CRM


With recent security enhancements in Customer engagement apps, the maximum user session timeout of 24 hours is removed.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/admin/user-session-management#user-session-timeout-management

Now it uses the Azure AD Session Policy to manage user session timeout, which by default has Azure AD refresh token expiration set as 90 days.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/active-directory-configurable-token-lifetimes#refresh-and-session-token-lifetime-policy-properties

Refresh toke lifetime and expirationhttps://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/refresh-tokens#refresh-token-lifetime

Use Configuring sign-in frequency in Conditional Access to define the periods before a user is required to sign-in again – https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/conditional-access/howto-conditional-access-session-lifetime

Earlier the default session timeout used to be 24 hours with 20 minutes for warning the user – https://nishantrana.me/2017/11/17/configure-session-timeout-and-inactivity-timeout-dynamics-365/

However, we can still override the default Azure AD Session policy, by setting the session timeout and/or inactivity timeout for the individual environment.

To set the same navigate to –

Environments > [Environment] > Settings > Privacy + Security in Power Platform Admin Center.

Specify appropriate values and save the changes.

Get all the details here –

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/admin/user-session-management#configure-session-timeout

How to – Provision Unified Routing in Dynamics 365 Customer Service Hub

Sample Code to Approve Email – Mailbox programmatically C# (Dynamics 365/CRM)


Suppose we want to Approve the Email for the mailbox of the user(s) programmatically.

We’d see the below notification for the user whose mailbox is not yet approved.

Email won’t be processed for this mailbox until the email address of the mailbox is approved by an Office 365 Global Administrator or by an Exchange Administrator. For more information, contact your system administrator.

Below is the sample code –

On running the code, we can see the notification for the email address approval removed or the mailbox approved for the user.

C# Code –

            CrmServiceClient svc = new CrmServiceClient(ConnectionString);

            if (svc.IsReady)
            {

                var systemUser = new Entity("systemuser", new Guid("C48A539A-F493-EC11-B400-000D3A4F37D3"));

                // emailrouteraccessapproval - status of the primary email address
                //0	= Empty, 1 = Approved, 2 = Pending Approval, 3 = Rejected
                systemUser.Attributes["emailrouteraccessapproval"] = new OptionSetValue(1);

                svc.Update(systemUser)

The code should run under the context of the user who has either Global Admin or Exchange Admin role.

Hope it helps..
