Post MSIgnite 2018 – What I’m Watching

As I filtered through the 1700+ sessions leading up to Microsoft Ignite, I quickly knew that unless I was able to clone myself I would have some catching up to do.  Rather than try to sort through all of the sessions again later, I made a playlist of sessions that I’d like to go back and watch.

The playlist is a compilation of 70+ videos and 24+ hours of content, mostly in the Azure and Office 365 arena since that is where a lot of my focus is these days.  Is there a session that shouldn’t be missed?  Feel free to let me know what should be added!

What I’m hoping to see at Ignite 2018

As Microsoft Ignite 2018 nears, I am busy preparing my schedule for the week.  Part of that preparation is planning for discussions I would like to have with product group members, MVPs, and other peers.  I also have some other things that I either think (hope) will happen, or at least want to hear more about.  Without further ado, here are 5 things I’m either hoping for or looking forward to at Ignite this year: Continue reading

Azure Sign-In Error Code 50140

While troubleshooting an issue recently, I noticed failures showing up in the Azure Sign-In Activity panel with a sign-in error code 50140.  The error code gave the following details:

Failure reason

This error occurred due to ‘Keep me signed in’ interrupt when the user was signing-in. Open a support ticket with Correlation ID, Request ID, and Error code to get more details.

This was happening for a variety of single-sign on enabled applications.  Upon testing, the user logged in and was prompted with KMSI as expected.  They experienced no trouble either when selecting Yes or No to the prompt.  After opening a case with Microsoft, and reaching out to someone on the inside, both confirmed that this was more of an anomaly in the logs and could be safely ignored.  It sounds like this will soon either be resolved or changed to an Informational message instead.

Ignite 2017 Day 1 Recap

The first day of Microsoft Ignite brought a staggering amount of announcements, most of which I have yet to read about in detail.  With the number of product groups represented at the conference, I am sure there are still some that I haven’t heard about.  In all of the sessions I attended today, I saw Microsoft’s mission throughout.  It is clear that they are really focused on ensuring users have the tools they need to be productive.

Microsoft Mission: Empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more.
