Hey there, MTC’ers! It’s been a busy week, so let’s jump right on in and look at what’s been happening in the Community this past week.
MTC Moments of the Week
This week, Community Events made a triumphant return with a double hitter!
Earlier this month, @Alex Simons published a blog post announcing the general availability of Microsoft Entra Permissions Management, and this past Tuesday, July 19, we had our first Entra AMA featuring @Nick Wryter, @Laura Viarengo, and @Mrudula Gaidhani.
Then, on Thursday, we had Tech Community Live: Endpoint Manager edition, which featured four AMA live streams all about the latest Endpoint Manager capabilities, including Windows Autopilot, Endpoint Analytics, and more! Thank you to everyone who attended :)
On the blogs this week, @Rafal Sosnowski published a post announcing the sunset of Windows Information Protection (WIP) and sharing resources on its successor, Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention (DLP), which you can try for free by enabling the free trial from the Microsoft Purview compliance portal.

I also want to shout out @Sergei Baklan for helping @Jammin2082 with their Morse code translator in Excel. What a cool way to use Excel!
Unanswered Questions – Can you help them out?
Every week, users come to the MTC seeking guidance or technical support for their Microsoft solutions, and we want to help highlight a few of these each week in the hopes of getting these questions answered by our amazing community!
This week, @Florian Hein shared a scenario they’ve run into involving links to Sharepoint pages not opening from within Teams. Have you experienced this before?

Meanwhile, new contributor @eliekarkafy is looking for guidance in building documentation for an Azure Governance Framework. If you have recommendations or a template to share, hop in and help a fellow MTC’er!
Next Week – Mark your calendars!
