Jeff Brown wrote a new post, Azure Bicep: Getting started guide 2 weeks, 4 days ago
Infrastructure as code aims to make resource deployment more predictable. Instead of writing complicated scripts, you write out what the resource should look like and then have a tool figure out how to deploy it. For Azure, the infrastructure-as-code solution has been the Azure Resource Manager or ARM templates written in the JSON syntax. Microsoft recently released a new configuration called Azure Bicep, which makes the configuration writing process more manageable. In this article, you'll learn about the Bicep syntax, authoring a Bicep template, and deploying Azure resources using Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI.

I have not tested this but maybe changing the display name for the users? I've seen where companies do something like "Jane Doe (Sales)" to distinguish between people with the same names.

If you are assigning the number on the user account in the M365 portal, no, it doesn't have to be unique. But I am unsure how Teams would handle trying to transfer the call. I've never tried that scenario.
Right now Teams (as far as I know) doesn't support settings extensions like it did back in the Skype for Business Server days. My guess is for right now is to avoid using the same extension for multiple users.

Jeff Brown wrote a new post, Migrate Skype for Business to Microsoft Teams with Meeting Migration Service 11 months, 1 week ago
While the migration from Skype for Business to Microsoft Teams has many moving parts, one item you don't need to worry about is updating meetings. Microsoft provides the Meeting Migration Service (MMS), which automatically converts your existing Skype for Business meetings to Microsoft Teams meetings. However, there are some scenarios where automatic migration does not occur, and you need to know how to verify that meetings were migrated successfully. In this post, I will cover when migrations occur and how to configure your tenant for automatic migrations.

I haven't worked with the Power BI connector to CQD yet. If you're finding too much information, maybe export via PowerShell to another data source that Power BI can use for input.

Right now, I don't believe a Teams client can join a Skype for Business meeting. That type of interoperability is just not there. Teams and Skype can chat and call between them, but using Teams to join a Skype meeting is not possible. When clicking a Skype for Business meeting link, it will open the Skype desktop client (if installed) or use the Skype Web App.

Yes they should be able to. The user should search for the name of the resource account and be able to call it like a normal user.

Hi, can you expand what why it is not OK? Microsoft outlines that either x or ext= are both valid for specifying the extension:
The method you used is more in line with what Skype administrators did in the past but the x method is valid here too. The screenshot I posted of the phone attribute setting is what I used when testing this feature and can confirmed it worked at the time.

Microsoft Teams is more than just a collaboration tool. It can also provide telephone services, so your users can make and receive phone calls. Another feature included in the Phone System license is using voice apps such as auto attendants and call queues. The auto attendant provides a menu system for incoming calls and includes a directory search option. I'll cover configuration of this option below.

Hi Michael, apologies for not seeing this comment sooner. Right now this is not a native way to store chats/conversations on-premises. That data is initially stored in the chat service, then copied to the Exchange mailbox for search/eDiscovery purposes. Even if the mailbox is on-premises, it is stored in a "shadow mailbox" in O365.
If you have developer capabilities, maybe a bot or other add-in to Teams could read data and funnel it to an on-premises database. Don't know if this is possible off the top of my head but something worth investigating. There could also be other third-party solution like Smarsh that may have this capability.

Hi there, apologies for the late reply. I had very few questions covering PowerShell/CLI. Maybe one question that required completing a command and one lab that had a task that could only be completed via PowerShell. Obviously your mileage may vary as every test is different, but from my experience you could pass with minimal command line knowledge. Let me know if you have additional comments.
