I work with Dynamics 365 Portals.
The rich-text editor is missing, how do I get it back?
I (my user) have all four webroles, including administrator. I am logged in. I have tried to clearing all cashes and reboot the portal itself. My coleagues are also unable to see it. Nothing works.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.
Few things to check.
There should only be a single Authenticated web role and a single Anonymous web role. You don't need to assign these web roles to your user, they are applied automatically by context.
Check you have a web page access control rule setup to grant change, that is linked to your Administrator web role.
Make sure you clear the server side cache.
Sorry, I do not have enough reputations to comment.
I am assuming that you don't see the front side editing tools.
9 out of 10 times, this is typically to do with the cache not clearing properly. Could you changing something on the webpage and check if the cache is clearing properly and the newest webpage content is surfacing on the portal?
Also, by default, the "Administrator" web role is associated with the appropriate "Website Access Permission" to provide you with the front side editing capability. If for some reason, the Website Access Permission is not associated with the Administrator web role, even if you belong to the Administrator web role, front side editing capability will not work.

In my work we have users who access a Web based tool called Microstrategy that serves different reports from different projects. Users are added to various groups in the Developer tool by importing them from the selected domain they are on into a specific group that gives them access to only the project > report they require. Most users come from one main central domain, some others are still on old domains.
I am currently involved with admin on this system and I am experiencing a problem I cannot get to the bottom of. I think they problem lies in no man's land, I don't know if it is a problem with network, domain, or something else?
Most users will be set up with authenticated login, meaning that when they click on the respective link for their report they are logged straight in using their windows credentials.
In this particular case however the user does not seem to be able to login, but can get in by manually typing their username in (username and password) to access.
I'm not sure what the problem is, why it won't authenticate automatically like most of the others do? I don't know if this makes any difference but when I RDP into the machine I cannot see the C drive due to 'admin restrictions on effect on this pc'.
I don't know what this restriction is and if it is a symptom or related to the login problem. Is there a way of fault finding this?
Thanks

The answer to this partly depends on the version of MicroStrategy you are using.
Forget about RDP to the server, you won't need that.
Assuming you have access to edit and change users with the Developer tool, open Developer.
In the tree on the left,
open the "project source" (the top level of the tree)
then Administration
then User Manager
then find the user, most likely within one of the groups you have set up
right click on the user and choose Edit
go to the Authentication section
There's a few relevant things here.
Is the user linked to a windows user? (they should be for the access you want)
Is the tickbox ticked "user cannot use standard authentication to logon"
You probably don't want to allow that if the standard at your workplace is auto login
We are using Sonhrqube 4.5 that is integrated into Google's oAuth sign-on. There are no issues with logging in (Authentication). Certain users have been provisioned with sonar-administrators role. But for some reason, the admin role keeps dropping for some users (leaves the user with sonar-users role). We have tried granting them admin access again, but it keeps happening. Also tried creating a brand new group and assigning that group to the user, but still same thing happens. Any thoughts? If you need any other information, let me know.
Just additional info, not sure if it matters - We are using the sonar-oauth-plugin from JCERTIFLab for integration with Google's signon/oauth. This plugin automatically creates users with default role - sonar-users.
Thanks in advance!
It turned out to be an issue with the Sonar plugin used for integration with google's Oauth. Every time a user is authenticated, permissions get overwritten. To overcome the problem temporarily, we predefined a list of users with admin access in the properties file.
So I have CRM Online and SharePoint Online as document storage. I have the list component installed and everything is working there. I have a plugin I have built which generates emails, and as part of the process, grabs documents from various SharePoint folders and attaches the to the email before sending.
To do this in a SharePoint online environment, I have to go out, grab a SAML token from MS's login STS service, pass the token to SharePoint, receive a couple of authentication cookies back, and pass those cookies along with any requests I make to SharePoint. All of this is working. The bad news is I have to have a username and password hardcoded in (or prompt the user). Is there any way from inside CRM Online to grab the current user's credentials and pass that to get the SAML token? I mean there has to be since CRM does it when you create the document libraries when you turn on Document Management, right?
I can't use the SharePoint dlls inside CRM Online plugins, it is security restricted. I cannot access the CredentialCache, security restricted. Hell, I even looked at trying to intercept the cookies somehow with Javascript, but it looks like they are HTTPOnly and pretty much inaccessible.
Tried putting in a Microsoft ticket and got some low level guy who immediately passed the buck and called it unsupported.
You can't get user's password in CRM. If you are developing a plugin, the plugin can run in the user context and the code will execute based on the logged in user. Therefore you don't need to pass any creds for adding a document in CRM.
Check out this url, it helps you understanding how impersonating works in CRM.

Hope this helps.
I am making a very simple marketplace app using the new SDK (Oauth 2.0). One of the steps would be to automatically invite team members for a closed group so I would need access to team members (users in same domain) from the user that is starting the process going through the default "navigator icon in google navigation menu".
This is working fine, however it is only working for administrators (tried with both Directory API and Profiles data API).Is there a way to simply "read" the email from users without needing to have administrator rights? It seems quite an overkill to ask a user to be administrator just for the purpose of being able to invite his team members.
These email addresses are in the user contact list for example, when writing an email they are automatically there so it shoulnt be much of permission problem I guess. can anyone help a bit on how I can accomplish this? Maybe a different API that I have not found?
Very much appreciated,
Best regards,
Joao Garin
You can use "Service Accounts" to access the Directory API on behalf of the Administrator when any user accesses the App.
The Drive API has a really good set of samples here - https://developers.google.com/drive/delegation
This same technique will work with Admin SDK. The end result is the auth is not made on behalf of the user at the keyboard but as an authorized Service Account. This Service Account is authorized by the admin at the time of install.
I am using joomla 3.0 and i want to when user open joomla 3.0 site then first open only login page then after login he can access website.
Thanks For Advance
You can put the site in offline mode.
So the site will display the login page.
Remember to grant permissions to the users to access the offline site!
If you want to "protect" the whole site with login the best option is to turn the site off and then the user will need to login after opening the intranet page. Its probably the cleanest way how to to it without modules/plugins.
As we are doing it in my company (we are also running intranet on Joomla!) is, that all the articles are set to registred and the landing page of intranet just contain warm welcome and login form.
One thing to mention: Forcing this login for viewing some article/other content is not secure at all, mostly the local instalation will run on database with root access without pass (default setting) and with unecrypted database easily accessible. This is something to consider. If you are running this intranet in small company with loyal employees or without sensitive information you should be fine if not you should put more stress on the security issues.
