New Features

• New feature added to Provisioning!

  • New section available when creating or editing Templates: Content & Structure
  • The Content & Structure section provides three options:
    • Start from scratch - the new provisioned workspace has the default Microsoft look and feel without any customizations.
    • Use existing Microsoft Teams template - when selected, predefined apps, channels, and tabs are created for the new provisioned workspace based on the template used.
    • Copy from existing team - selecting this will copy channels, apps, tabs, and settings from the selected existing workspace to the new one being provisioned.
      • You can choose whether to copy only Structure or Structure & Content.
  • For more details, take a look at the Content & Structure article.

• New feature enables workspace owners to perform Metadata Review.

  • Administrators can decide which metadata workspace owners can manage.
    • For more details on this, take a look at the Manage Metadata Review article.
  • Admins also decide which metadata is reviewed on the selected workspace(s) and ask owners to perform Metadata Review.
    • For more details on this, take a look at the Request Metadata Review article.
  • After admin's request, workspace owners get an email guiding them to a Syskit Point task where they can manage workspace metadata.
    • For more details on this, take a look at the Resolve Metadata Review article.

Improvements & Bug Fixes

• Improvements made to reports.

  • The Sites Overview report and Teams & Groups Overview report now have an additional column to select from the column chooser: Last Reviewed.  
    • This column provides information on the date and time when the last Access Review was performed on the workspace.
  • The Site Overview, Storage Metrics, Site Storage Metrics reports have a new column available to select from the column chooser: Site Type
  • The User Access and Group Access reports now have additional columns: Sensitivity Label and Retention Label.
  • The Site Storage Metrics report is now available in all Syskit Point Subscription plans.

• A new column is available for workspaces in the Govern > Security & Compliance section: Activity.

  • The Activity column shows the current state of the workspace:
    • If the light is green, the workspace is active.
    • If the light is gray, the workspace is inactive.
  • Activity is based on usage of SharePoint, Exchange, Teams and Viva Engage in the last 90 days.
  • This column is available for both Active Tasks and History.

• New Change Privacy action has been added to the following reports:

  • Teams & Groups Overview, Teams & Groups Details, Sites Overview (only for Microsoft Teams & Microsoft Groups)
  • The Change Privacy actions change the privacy of a workspace from Private to Public or vice versa.

• The Manage Sensitivity action on workspaces can now be completed by Collaborators.

  • Collaborators can run the sensitivity management actions (Apply, Remove) only if the selected sensitivity label was published for them in Microsoft Purview; if the sensitivity label is not published for a collaborator, they cannot manage it.

• Sensitivity Labels can now be marked as sensitive by administrators in the Settings of Syskit Point.

  • Content marked with such label(s) will be shown in reports that display sensitive content.
  • The Sensitivity Label with the highest priority rating is automatically set as sensitive.
  • Administrators can find the list of Sensitivity Labels in settings and define which should be registered as sensitive.

• New Reassign to Manager e-mail is sent when owners do not resolve the Minimum Number of Owners and Maximum Number of Owners vulnerability tasks, and the reassign option is enabled in the policies.

  • If the task is not completed by the due date, the defined users will receive an e-mail stating that the task has been reassigned to them as it was not completed by the owner(s).
  • Learn more about this in the Resolve Minimum Number of Owners Tasks and Resolve Maximum Number of Owners Tasks articles.

• Fixed an issue where the link sent in the task completed e-mails, after completing an Access Review, would direct collaborators to the Govern screen of Syskit Point.

  • The link sent in the e-mail now directs collaborators to the completed Task in Syskit Point.

• Fixed an issue that caused the prefix not to show properly when a workspace was archived or restored.

  • The prefix [Archived] is added to the workspace name if a workspace is archived.
  • The prefix [Archived] is removed from the workspace name if a workspace is restored.  

• Fixed an issue where the policy vulnerability reminder e-mails were erroneously sent after a site sync was performed.

• Fixed a bug that caused the layout for the PDF file for tree reports not to show the indent that clearly indicates the relationship between files and workspaces.

• Fixed an issue where the Sign Out button for Syskit Point did not work properly after the session had expired, preventing users from signing out.

• When a Security Group is added as a SharePoint Site Admin, the Owners of the Security Group are no longer assigned as the SharePoint Site Admins.  

• Fixed a bug with the Advanced Options button on the Create/Edit Metadata dialog.

• Improved detection of the Shadow Users policy.

• Various improvements and minor UX and UI fixes are available.
