Office 365 Yammer

[Boredguy]

Just noticed that Yammer is now integrated into the "Office 365 Education Plus for students" licence.

 

Has anyone got a PS script to just remove part of the licence as we don't really want it enabled at present (and I went to the effort of disabling yammer in the Admin centre previously)

I've managed it, if you're still looking for a script?

[Boredguy]

If you've got one @saintoctopus it will give us something to do on Monday as my sneaky plan of changing the users licence on mass via the GUI was not going to work as you can only do 100 at a time =(

[saintoctopus]

Cool - I've PMd you

Cheers @saintoctopus, script is happily updating all the students now

Is it possible to be PM'd this script...would be a great help

[JonThompson]

[speckytecky]

I need the script, I tried one but it didn't work for me. I've currently added my home IP to the only allowed IP range in settings, so at school etc you just get a disabled IP range message when it's clicked until I can properly disable it.

Wouldn't mind a copy.

After removing the licenses, don't forget to enforce Office 365 sign in and block users without license in Yammer security settings.

For those with Salamander Software AD sync then it can remove the Yammer SKU from students, you just need to ask their support team.

 

I asked Microsoft if Yammer had any way of reporting abusive posts, which, no surprise it does not as it is designed to be used in a professional environment. I don't know who's idea it was to turn it on by default for students, but they certainly did not think about the consequences. Anyway they pointed me to this site and suggested that I put it in for the developers.

 

Research ? Yammer UX Team.

Hi I would suggest not using apearce script on his blog, as when I tried it I found it didn't work but randomly it removed a few staff members exchange licences.

[saintoctopus]

I've replied to all who requested - if you still need it that is :-)

After removing the yammer licenses onsite I found it wasn't stopping students who had already logged onto yammer from accessing it.

After a Microsoft call I was told you have to enforce license restriction.

 

To do this go to Admin > Yammer > Security Settings > Tick the Enforce the office 365 identity > select ok and then save.

Block Office 365 users without Yammer licenses tick box will appear underneath > Tick the box > select ok and then save.
