CRM 2015 + Activities not related visible in social pane - dynamics-crm

I am facing an issue where in an email activity which is not related to my account is visible in social pane.
For eg. There is Account A and Account B
And an Email activity named Email A
So in Email Activity - 'Email A' i have selected Account A in the regarding field, However this email activity is visible in social pane in both the accounts - Account A and Account B.
Any help would be appreciated

The social pane shows activities (e.g. emails) from the current account as well as child accounts.
In your case Account B would be the parent account of Account A (or at least Account A would be an ancestor of Account B), since the email shows up in the social pane.

Found answer to my question posting it so that it might help others -
The email activity as explained in the example Email A had an contact mentioned in the 'CC' field of email activity.
And the Contact had its Parent Account set a 'Account B'. Hence it was visible in Account B also.

Dynamics 365 Portals - Employee Self-Service - 'Content Editor Tool' not appearing for 2nd Admin user

I have a trial Dynamics 365 Portal for Employee Self-Service. I am also seeing this issue in my real Office 365/Dynamics 365 instance.
For my first Admin user I was able to log into the Portal, add them to the Administrator web role, log in again and see the 'Content Editor Tool' floating in the top right corner. All good.
For a second Admin user I do exactly the same thing... but no 'Content Editor Tool' appears. I have tried to match both the first Admin account and the second Admin account exactly the same but nothing happens.
I have also Restarted the Portal from the Admin center and have turned the Portal off and on again.
Is there anyway I can diagnose why this second Admin is not working?
I worked it out. Web Roles and Security Roles are not the same.
Security Roles are set at User level and provide access to Dynamics 365.
Web Roles are set at Contact level and provide access to the Portal.
For the other Portals you just send an Invitation Workflow, and I still had to do this step even though the User had been created already by virtue of logging into the Employee Self Service (ESS) portal. I created the invite for the Contact, saved it, added the Administrator Web Role, and then selected 'Other Activities' (in the ... button) and then 'Invite Redemption'.
In the 'Invite Redemption' dialog, select the Contact again, provide any username, and click the 'Save' button.
This will complete the workflow to add the Web Role. Next time you log in as that user the tool will be visible.

can I share username across slack teams

I'm new to slack and have the following question. I was initially invited for a team. I set up an account. Now I was invited to join another team. As far as I understood slack is based on teams. That means I can share the same mail address across teams. But if I want to join the second team I can't use the same username. It says I can't pick that username and should try another one. Do I need to choose a different username for every team?
Slack accounts are scoped on a team (tenant) basis, so you can use the same username and email address in different teams - or different ones - all that matters is that the username and email address aren't already in use.
In your case, it sounds like someone else has already nabbed the username you want, so you'll have to choose a new one, or contact an administrator to remove or rename the other user if they're inactive.

Unable to set a group email as the email address for Google credentials "OAuth consent screen"

This question is related to "How can I change the OAuth consent screen email address for my project?", but unfortunately i didn't find my answer there. I also couldn't find details I needed from Google's documentation.
My IT department has created a group for me, and has shown me that myself and others are indeed owners of the group. I have added the group as an "Editor" of my project. However, I do not see the group in the email drop-down on the credentials OAuth consent screen settings:
OAuth consent screen email drop-down
My question is: Are there certain settings that must be applied to the group for that group to be able to be selected in that consent email drop-down?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
My IT department was able to fix the issue. In the google admin panel, they enabled the Information > Directory > Group Directory for the group.
"Group Directory" setting
After that, the group showed up in the "Google groups managed by you drop down". It seems that this external visibility was needed for this group to be used as the contact information for the OAuth consent screen.

How can I reliably link to a Gmail conversation given a thread ID if the user is logged into multiple accounts?

If you're logged into multiple Gmail accounts, Google changes the URLs to reference which account you're currently using. For example:
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox/138d85da096d2126 for a convo in my primary account vs
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/1/#inbox/128cfe99d055805d for a convo in another one of my accounts.
Note that one account has /u/0 in the URL and the other has u/1.
My question is: given that I've used the Gmail REST API to find the ID of a particular thread, how can I reliably link to that thread? Is there any programmatic way to ask Google which accounts the user is logged into, and what sequence (0, 1, 2, ...) each account falls under?
Looks like you can include a query parameter called authUser that specifies the email account you want to link to:
https://mail.google.com/mail/?authuser=your.email.address#gmail.com#all/138d85da096d2126

How can i have two organisation-instances with my one live id account

I just want to have a list with organisations after i have logged in with my liveid. Then i select one from these organisations and will be redirected to this organisation. For some weeks i did it so: i created a new test account with my old (used in another CRM online test system) liveid email. And each time after login i had a choice between two organisations. Now it's not possible any more.
How can i have two organisation-insatnces with my one live id account? (goal: DiscoveryService schould return two organisations for my test porposes)
thanks
If you use the URL for one organisation it asks for logon and then delivers that organisation. If you go to the generic page https://crm.dynamics.com and click "customer sign in" then after LiveID sign in you will be prompted for your org.
