Glympse - Define Private Groups Using recipient's email addresses - glympse

When I define a private group I'm only presented with contracts for whom I have cell phone numbers. For typical glympses I can also select a recipient by their email address. How can I add recipients by email address when defining a private group?

At this time Glympse does not support private group invites via email. This is because a private group user needs to first verify their account with an SMS number. This is why private group invites can only be sent via SMS.

Json Property indicating a private email in OutLook Email

I was trying to fetch the emails from OutLook using the microsoft's web api ( https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/mailFolders('inbox')/messages ).
A User can mark an email as a private email by following the below path :
Draft -> Show Message Option -> Select 'Private' from the sensitivity drop down
Although this email is marked as a private email but I don't see any property in the response that identifies that email as a private email.
Kindly let me know if you which property which marks an email as private. Thanks in advance.
Sensitivity is not in the message schema, but you can always request the PR_SENSITIVITY MAPI property:
$expand=singleValueExtendedProperties($filter=id eq 'Integer 0x0036')

When does aws sns sms SENDERID gets changed from custom-id to aws's default-id "NOTICE"?

I am using aws sns for sending sms to Indian phone numbers since last two months.I am using PHP SDK for api calls.
I had sent 7000+ successful messages with custom senderid relating to our company name.But since last 4-5 days same clients/phone no.s are receiving messages with aws's default senderid "NOTICE".
I am publishing messages to a topic to send sms. Now in past few pushed messages all clients got default senderid, while in few pushed messages only few clients got default id while others got my custom id.
So, where is the problem?
If your destination phone number is in India, your Sender ID must be registered to be able to work. You can request to register a Sender ID by opening a support ticket with AWS support (which has no cost).
Other countries require no registration, thus, some deliveries will work by just adding a sender ID value to your publish request.
You might successfully get a working sender ID to an Indian destination depending on the route the message takes to reach an end user. However, the right course of action (given technology partners and provider regulations) is to register the sender ID before using it with AWS (which is why it's not marked on the website).
Disclosure: I work at the AWS team for Mobile Messaging.
Are you sure you have entered a valid Sender ID, so no spaces and at least one letter?
Also it's important to know that not all countries support a custom Sender ID. See documentation from AWS bellow:
(Optional) For Sender ID, type a custom ID that contains up to 11
alphanumeric characters, including at least one letter and no spaces.
The sender ID is displayed as the message sender on the receiving
device. For example, you can use your business brand to make the
message source easier to recognize.
Support for sender IDs varies by country. For example, messages
delivered to U.S. phone numbers will not display the sender ID. For
the countries that support sender IDs, see Supported Regions and
Countries.
If you do not specify a sender ID, the message will display a long
code as the sender ID in supported countries. For countries that
require an alphabetic sender ID, the message displays NOTICE as the
sender ID.
This message-level sender ID overrides your default sender ID, which
you set on the Text messaging preferences page.

How to know who send the invite?

I'm using the iOS Glympse SDK to send email invites.... and it works fine.
The email destination user is receiving a glympse invite but no indication of the user nickname sending the invite. The invitation title is "A friend share a glympse with you".
I would like to have "Fred share a glympse with you"
How to do that ?
Sounds like you're on the right track, the sender's nickname is used in the invite email's subject line.
Make sure the sender's nickname is being set at the correct time. It can only be set after the client app has synced with the Glympse server as described here: https://developer.glympse.com/docs/core/client-sdk/guides/common/programming-guide#configuring-user-profile
As described in that document, make sure to listen for the GE.PLATFORM_SYNCED_WITH_SERVER event and set the nickname for the sender at that time (or anytime after). This rule exists so that if the nickname or avatar was set on another device, the client will have up to date information before it tries to apply a new nickname.
Once the sync has occurred, the nickname of the sender is set like this
GUser user = glympse->getUserManager()->getSelf();
user->setNickname(CoreFactory::createString("Fred"));

Why can't I set the Office365 sender name remotely when sending via smtp?

An external saas application "SocialNetwork" is using one of our office365 users to send the notification emails. Typically the saas app will send different notifications and will set the sender name to the author of a new content. But the sender name for the notifications is always the name of the Office365 user ("SocialNetwork").
e.g.:
John Doe posts a new file in the saas application "SocialNetwork". I should receive an email notification about that. The notification is sent via our Office365 user "SocialNetwork". Sadly the email I receive as a Office365 user comes from "SocialNetwork" and not as "John Doe", which is set when the notification email is sent.
How can we send notifications via an office365 user but still not have a fixed name for this user and rather send emails with it including varying sender names?
Exchange Server in general, and Office 365 in particular, will not let you spoof the sender address. It has to come from one of the SMTP aliases of the mailbox.
