Search SharePoint 2013 On-Prem with Office 365

We're trying to understand federated search in SharePoint 2013, when it comes to Office 365. We have both a SharePoint 2013 on-prem environment, and an Office 365 environment. The 2 are completely separate, and have not been configured to use a hybrid model.
Is it possible to configure a Result Source in either the SharePoint environment or the Office 365 environment to index the other? Reading this
article from Technet, it indicates that you can configure a remote SharePoint farm as a Result Source:
"Remote SharePoint provides
results from the index of a search service in another farm."
But I've read on another
thread on here that this is not possible from O365.
I'm hoping that someone can provide some guidance, or point me in the right direction.
Thanks,
cflbasser

Yes, you can receive search results from an on-premise SharePoint Server 2013 farm within SharePoint Online.
Hybrid search between SharePoint Server and SharePoint online uses federated search results. Neither the on-premise farm nor SPO crawl the other location, they just send a federated search query over the fence and wait for the results.
You can search in either direction (one-way hybrid search) or both ways (bidirectional hybrid search).
The one-way search can either be SharePoint Server sending search queries to SPO or SPO sending queries to SharePoint Server which also needs a reverse proxy for securely publishing your on-premise farm to SPO.
Bi-directional hybrid search just combines both one-way methods together so either location can receive search results from the other location.
Here are some further resources to help you plan and implement hybrid search:

[Resolved]Outlook 2013 with Office 365: Unable to log in to: SharePoint. Click here to log in.

This is posted so that it may be of assistance to others.
I am using Outlook 2013 (Office 2013 Pro Plus) with Office 365 (E3 Subscription). Active Directory is federated with Office 365. I recently had to change my AD account password.
On my home computer, that is not a domain member and is running Windows 8.1 with my personal Microsoft account, Outlook was not authenticating to SharePoint Online. In the message/event windows the error "Unable to log in to: SharePoint. Click
here to log in." is displayed. When I click the error it flashes and does nothing else. Outlook was showing SEND/RECEIVE errors for all of my SharePoint Online calendars and lists:
Task 'SharePoint' reported error (0x80070005): 'You do not have permission to view this SharePoint List (IT Shared Calendar). Contact the SharePoint site administrator. HTTP 403.'
I could send and receive e-mail. I deleted one of the calendars and then added it back from the SharePoint site ribbon- no change. I was always able to access the calendars and lists using IE.
I checked Windows Credential Manager. I deleted my Outlook credential (MS.Outlook.15) which prompted me to enter my Exchange Online credentials but did not prompt for SharePoint Online. I then deleted my Office credential (MicrosoftOffice15_Data:orgid) with
no change.
It was not until I switched Office over to use my organizational (Federated AD) account that the problem was resolved.
It appears Outlook (15.0.4615.1000) now gets confused between accounts- because previously I had no issues when changing my password as Outlook would always prompt for it. I noticed this behavior had changed on my office computer when Outlook did not give
me the usual three prompts for password after changing it.

Hybrid Search with Office 365 from On Prem Search

I have followed this post on Setting up Hybrid search of Office 365 from Sharepoint On premise:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/wbaer/archive/2014/03/24/one-way-outbound-hybrid-search-step-by-step-and-onedrive-for-business.aspx#comments
As well as tested all of the validation steps in the following Technet Article on setting up Identity Management.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn197169(v=office.15).aspx
However the last validation step in each is to test the Result Source and I get the following error:
Web error: System.Net.WebException: The request was aborted: The request was canceled. ---> Microsoft.SharePoint.IdentityModel.OAuth2.SPOAuth2ErrorResponseException: [invalid_client] ACS50027: JWT token is invalid.
Trace ID: 375a7faa-be03-441e-be21-5b29
I am really scratching my head here and My Google Foo is coming up empty on any variation of that error.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to configure Hybrid Search with Office 365 from On Prem Search.
Please make sure you configure Hybrid Search correctly.
For more information, you can refer to:
Hybrid for SharePoint Server 2013
Configure hybrid Search for SharePoint Server 2013
The JWT token invalid error was due to an invalid date format for the STS certificate.
I recommend to created search service application using Wizzard , then move the search roles across multiple boxes using the steps mentioned
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj729803.aspx
You can also rename the search databases.

Does On-Premise TFS 2013 work with Office 365 natively or do I need an Exchange/O365 Hybrid solution?

Hello. We currently have an on-premise Exchange 2010 environment with 2 servers setup in a DAG. Our Development Department uses an on-premise TFS 2013 server for everything, they can't work without
it. Upper Management wants the IT Dept to move the company from on-premise Exchange 2010 DAG to Office 365. My concern is TFS 2013 since it uses AD and Exchange for workflow notifications. An employee's AD account is given permission to resources
inside TFS 2013 and since Exchange attributes are tied to their AD account they receive workflow notifications. My question is will I need to keep a permanent Exchange 2010/O365 Hybrid solution in-place in order for TFS 2013 to continue function
properly? If the answer is yes than that is fine, I am just looking for confirmation before I start the project. I would appreciate any advice on this topic.<o:p></o:p>
Thanks<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>

Hi Cirbin,
As far as I know, it's not supported to integrate TFS 2013 with Office 365. You can check the
link for more information.
For your situation, whether keep a permanent Exchange 2010/O365 Hybrid solution or not, you might open a new thread in SharePoint/Exchange forum for a better response. From the thred, seems you need to keep the hybrid solution.
And for integration Office 365 users to TFS, please vote the user voice

Outlook 2013 Not Responding and Offline Address Book Issues with Office 365

Around 3 months ago I setup a small business with Office 365 for email. They have 10 PCs, all running newly installed Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, eight with Office 2013 and two with Office 2010. All are connected to a local domain (Server Essentials
2012) with a single internet connection through a new TP-LINK router. Each user logs into their own PC only.
The network runs perfectly, internet connection is good but there seems to be RANDOM, INTERMITTENT issues with email not being SENT from Outlook every so often. Email will sit in the outbox for up to an hour sometimes before, eventually, being sent. Incoming
email seems ok, although this is more difficult to tell. At others times, email will be sent instantly - the size of the message and any attachments makes no difference.
The issue has happened at some point on every one of the PCs but no particular PC/user seems worse than any other. When email is stuck on one user's PC it can still be sent ok by other users at the same time - so the internet connection is not down. Users can
can always login to the OWA service ok and iPhones etc. all sync ok even when email is stuck in the Outbox.
To debug the issue I have worked on one particular user's PC and carried out the following changes -
Changes that made no difference
I have checked the router. A SPI firewall is available on the router but this is switched off.
I have changed the MTU on the router with no effect.
There are no unsual add-ins to Outlook
Outgoing email virus scanning is disabled
Outlook is NOT integrated with Lync
The OST file is around 1.7 GBytes is size.
I have recreated the Outlook profile twice but this made no difference
Switched OFF "Cached Exchange Mode" - this made things worse !
The Outlook address book is set to \Offline Global Address List
I have disabled with Windows firewall on the client PC - no change
I have adjusted the KeepAliveTime for packets in the registry of the PC to 20 minutes
Changes that reduced the frequency of "Not Responding"
I have changed the Outlook automatic Send/Receive time from 30 to 10 minutes - this seemed to help
Possible Related Problem
I have attempted to download the offline address book manually - this hangs at "Copying offline address book template file" in the Send/Receive dialog and there a NO OAB files in the data file location on the PC.
So the only measure that has so far "helped" has been the Outlook Send/Receive time change - now set to 10 minutes. Even so, Outlook will occasionally go "Not Responding" for 30 minutes or more (no windows active - only option
is to close and reopen Outlook).
There does seem to be a problem with the Offline Address book. I can download this ok for this user on my home PC (Outlook 2010) but this will not download manually on the work pc with Outlook 2013 (despite following all the debug steps above).
On work PC I can see literally hundreds of "Schannel" errors in the Windows System event logs -
Error - Event 36888 Schannel
The following fatal error was generated :10
The internal error state is 10
These errors occur every 2-4 minutes continually all the time Outlook is running. When Outlook is closed the "Schannel" errors stop !
Can anyone suggest what else to try, please ?
I have already investigated this issue on the Office 365 Community Forum, and the Outlook forum and they suggested that it was a client (i.e Outlook) issue and that I should post here for further information.
Thanks for reading !

An update to this problem.
I brought one of the office PCs back to my home network and connected it up there. With no changes to the PC I was immediately able to download the Offline Address Book without errors.
This suggests to me that there must be some problem with the internet connection or router setup in the office environment.
The router is a TP-LINK W8970. The internet connection is PPPoA. I have seen some suggestion that an SPI firewall can cause issues. This router has an SPI firewall but this feature is disabled on the router.
While investigating this issue I have frequently been connected remotely to an office PC - sometimes for up to an hour or more. During these periods I have not experienced any connection dropouts so the actual internet connection seems to be ok (i.e. it is
not dropping out).
However, something seems to be preventing the Outlook client from connecting properly with the Office 365 Exchange server in the office environment - or something is dropping the connection to Outlook. Does anyone know of any router settings that might affect
this ?
I could try changing the office router but I do not have a spare available. Can anyone suggest a reasonably low cost, currenbtly available router that they know definitely works in the Office 365 environment so that I could buy this for test purposes ?

ADFS single sign-on with office 365 and multiple forests

I have 2 forests with one of them (Forest A) only running Exchange / Office 365 in hybrid mode. The other forest (Forest B) has my AD accounts for everyday user login and work. Is there a way to set up ADFS between these 2 forests in order for Forest B
to achieve single sign-on to office 365? Today users have to login with separate office 365 accounts in order to access email and sharepoint. Short of migrating Forest A into Forest B and getting down to one forest / domain, is there anything else we can do
to achieve single sign-on?

Hi,
Based on my research, we can have one ADFS farm servicing multiple forests, here are some related articles below for your references:

Project 2007 with Office 365 online

Hi,
I am looking for the Project 2007 compatibility with Office 365 online with SP 2013.
Is this possible? If yes, what is the procedure to configure that.
I have not worked on Project Server, if anyone can help me or provide any reference links that will be very helpful.
Thanks
Ankit
Thanks Ankit

Ankit,
You are talking about multiple things in your question, so let me try and clarify the question.
1) Office 365 +SP 2013 is not Project Server. Project Server is a totally separate application built on SharePoint. And in Office 365, Project Server is offered as Project Online, which is an additional license you need to purchase.
2) With that settled, I will assume you are talking about Project Stand-alone with SharePoint. As far as I know, this "Sync" functionality was only available starting Project 2010, so I am guessing using Project 2007 will not work.
3) That pretty much leaves us with Manually uploading Project (.mpp) files into SharePoint, just like any other document, and if this is what you want, then it should work with no issues.
If none of the above answered your question, please post some more details, and we will try to help.

Error during the migration of Lync 2013 onpremise user to Office 365 Lync

Hi,
I am trying to migrate a Lync 2013 onpremise user to Office 365 Lync in a Hybrid environment.
I am connecting to the Lync server from my machine with the following commands
$lyncOptions = New-PSSessionOption -SkipRevocationCheck -SkipCACheck -SkipCNCheck
$lync = New-PSSession -ConnectionUri https://lyncserver/ocspowershell -SessionOption $lyncOptions -Authentication NegotiateWithImplicitCredential
Import-PSSession $lync
In the next step I am trying to migrate the user to the Office 365 Lync:
Move-CsUser -Identity "username" -Target 'sipfed.online.lync.com' -HostedMigrationOverrideUrl 'https://admin1e.online.lync.com/HostedMigration/hostedmigrationservice.svc'
After that I get a warning message due to to migration to a previous version which I accept.
WARNING: Moving a user from the current version to an earlier version (or to a service version) can cause data loss.
Confirm
Move-CsUser
[Y] Yes [A] Yes to All [N] No [L] No to All [?] Help (default is "Y"): y
Then I am getting the following error message:

Tried to Google it but found nothing.
As far as I can see it is complaining about the Live ID Sign-in assistant, which is installed (the 64bit version) on my computer but not on the remote server. Does it need to be installed on the server as well?
Thanks for the answers in advance.

This error related to reporting services, you need to verify that reporting services is installed on these instances.
Secondly, you didn't need to create this instance manually then setup monitoring role. delete this instance from shared storage and try again to setup rule using different instance name and it will create automatic on shared storage.

SharePoint 2013 + ADFS 3.0 -- Office SSO

Hello
We have installed a SharePoint 2013 SP1 farm with multiple Web Applications (Portal and OneDrive). The users log in on an ADFS server 3.0 in the internal network and externally. This is working fine. Now we have 2 problems:
The user has to sign in to the ADFS server again everytime he opens an Office document externally. We don't have this problem in the internal network because of the Windows Authentification.
The user cannot open the explorer view in a document library externally. He gets the message, that he has to insert the url to the trusted site altough he has already done that. Again internally no problem.
Can anyone help us?

ADFS v3 is the only way to use MSFT SAML w/ SharePoint Apps, so yes it is supported.
I don't think Explorer View (WebDAV) will work with SAML. I think that requires Windows Auth, if I'm not mistaken.

Help Needed with getting Started With Office 365 Development C# Rest API

We have a O365 Tenant Setup with a Federated Active Directory Setip we want to be able to right code that will connect to our tenant and perform basic CRUD operations against it (ex. Creating mail boxes)
The problem is we want this to be contained in a CLR trigger In SQL so say if a new user is added to our user table then we would create a new AD account for that user and also create a mailbox.
But I cannot find and example on how to connect to Office 365 using the REST API (Not the SDK because you can not add the connected service to a class library) and before the required actions that we need to do. All the example I have found are with the
SDK API and/or require window 8 and that is also not an option.
Please help I do not know where to start, and I would love to see some examples done in c# and not using the SDK.
Thanks,
Andrew Day

Hi,
>> Instead of SharePoint URLs I would use the O365 API URL?
Yes, in my sample code, I was accessing the File resource by using the O365 File API. In your case, you need to acquire the token to access the Mail resource and use O365 Mail API.
By the way, I think the article
Understand Office 365 app authentication concepts will help you to understand the authentication process in Office 365 Development.
>> Why can I not use the SDK API with a class Library?
Actually, you are able to reference the Office 365 .NET SDK in the class Library. But the class library project type was not supported by Visual Studio Office 365 Development Tool. As a workaround,
you can reference the SDK manually in your project.
Since your original question is about “getting started with Office 365 Development C# Rest API”, if you have more questions about the Office 365 SDK, I will suggest you posting a new thread
to discuss the Office 365 SDK. It will involve more other community members to share their ideas and experience on a specific a question and for others who had a similar question could also find the valuable information quickly.

Is Outlook 2007 compatible with Office 365?

Is Outlook 2007 compatible with Office 365? The Office 365 will be part of Windows 2012 Essentials.

As of the time I am writing this, outlook 2007 still works (but I can personally attest that the experience isn't great.) By the time you read this, that can change and it may not work anymore. Microsoft only guarantees compatibility wothnoffoce
products in mainstream support. So that is 2010 and 2013 (or 365 Pro Plus equivalents.) 2007 is only in extended support, so MS has no guarantees or obligation to maintain compatibility, and they *specifically* call out 2007 support in their supported client
documentation.

Calendar bug with Office 365 for Education (exchange accounts)

I have an Office 365 Exchange account provided by my University. When I add the account to my Mac, Mail.app and Contacts.app work perfectly. However I receive an error message in Calendar which states that “Calendar needs a valid email address to connect” to my account. The address is clearly valid since it is working in Mail and Contacts. Furthermore, this account works perfectly in iOS Mail, Contacts, and Calendar. The issue is only with Calendar in OS X. Upon researching online, it appears that this issue will occur on Macs if the account is hidden on the Exchange Global Address List (which is true for my account). Below are a few additional points that are related to this bug:
1. iOS connects to Exchange through ActiveSync which is why I don't see the issue on iOS devices.
2. OS X connects to Exchange through Exchange Web Services (EWS). OS X supports EWS for Calendar syncing only when a users name is listed on the Global Address List. If the account is hidden (and they usually are for Office 365 educational accounts at Universities complying with FERPA laws) then Calendar.app cannot connect and sync the users calendar. I am not sure if this is by-design or a bug.
3. The third-party Mac app 'BusyCal 2' also uses EWS to connect to Exchange and it will work regardless of the visibility of the user's account on the GAL.
This has led me to two conclusions: Either (1) Apple has a bug in Calendar.app, or (2) the bug is in EWS and Busycal 2 is forcing some sort of work-around. It's likely that Apple and Microsoft will need to work together to fix the issue. I've attempted submitting a bug report to Apple but I have no way to contact Microsoft since I am not an admin for the Office 365 plan that my school uses. I would need to go through my admins but they don't seem to care much about this issue. So pretty much I'm left helpless at this point :/
Does my analysis seem valid or does anyone else have any points to contribute? I would appreciate the assistance

Hi,
There are two ways to share read access to your calendar on premise to Office 365. The method you choose depends on your requirements and the level of access that you want to give to the calendars. But providing write access to the calendar is not possible
in a Cross-Premise scenario.
For more information, here is a blog for your reference.

Using Lync server 2010 with office 365 email in the cloud

We have a 5 year old install of Lync server 2010 in house that interacts with a local install of exchange 2008 via unified messenger. If down the road we want to try email in the cloud like office 365 can we still keep our local Lync server install? Thanks in advance.
This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks Community

I am reporting back with my solution. I can now confirm that one can have Lync servers on-premises with Exchange Online using Office 365 and the Lync Phone Edition devices will work. Contact search, calendar (although it only shows the day's
Lync meetings), and visual voice mail all work.
Summary of fix: AD FS certificates have to be issued by CAs that Lync Phone Edition trusts.
The problem was when the Lync Phone Edition came back and tried to log in through AD FS. Since we had single sign-on with Office 365 set up before we even ventured down the Lync path, the certificates for AD FS weren't issued by a CA that Lync Phone
Edition trusted. Getting new certificates solved the issue. (They were issued by the same CA that did the "external web" certificate on the Lync Front End in case that matters.)
I tried hard to get the phones to trust the original certificate first, putting it in Active Directory using the
certutil -dsPublish method, putting the original CA on the Lync Web Services trusted list using
Set-CsWebServiceConfiguration. But nothing seemed to work until I finally just gave up and got a new certificate issued. I am now running without any certificates listed in Active Directory nor any explicitly listed in Lync's Get-CsWebServiceConfiguration
and it works great.
The Technet articles are woefully out of date when it comes to the trusted CA list, but here's a link to the list of trusted CAs (with the updated firmware): http://blog.schertz.name/2014/10/lync-phone-edition-and-public-certificates/

Issue with Office 365 integration module

I have an issue with the Office 365 integration module on one of my customer's Windows Server 2012 Essentials servers.
Recently they switched to a new Office 365 plan, but the integration module still thinks the customer is on the old plan. This doesn't seem to affect functionality at all, so I think it's just cosmetic. On the Office 365 tab of the Windows Server Essentials
dashboard, under Subscription it lists the old plan and says the subscription has expired. Under Licenses it says "your subscription includes 0 licenses" and "0 licenses are assigned to user accounts."
Steps I've tried to resolve this issue:
Created a new Office 365 test user account (after switching plans) and then on the Windows Server 2012 Essentials dashboard clicked 'Change the Office 365 administrator account.' This made no difference.
Uninstalled and then reinstalled the Office 365 integration module. Again, this made no difference.
I suspected there might be an issue in the Office 365 back-end, where the customer's Office 365 account was somehow still associated with the old plan, but they said that wasn't the case.
I opened a service request with Office 365 support about the issue with the server dashboard, but this was their response: "As we are online service support team, we provide limited support on local application extension...you may need to contact the
Windows Server support team for further help."
As it seems to be just a cosmetic issue, I'm not going to open a paid service request with the Windows Server support team, but I'm interested to know if anyone on the forum has struck this issue before or has any suggestions.

Not seen this issue myself, you may be right in that it Is just a cosmetic issue, and I would be surprised if a fix was forthcoming even if you opened a case (or we opened a case for you) due to resources having shifted to the Windows 10.
You could grab the OIM logs from programdata\windowsserver\logs and we can see if there is anything obvious in there.
