SUMMARY:Stuck in Limbo: Struggles and Successes with MS Graph API for Automated Email Access into O365 - Live Session
DESCRIPTION:Conference Session \nJoin the Zoom Event \n\nDescription\n \nThe University of Wisconsin-Madison is a large place\, with many staff members. One of the struggles that is familiar to many is how to balance specialized needs for divisions\, colleges and other groups inside the university\, with the administrative goals of simplifying services at a central level. In particular\, email transmissions that are handled by software without the intervention of human hands can struggle when modernization occurs: the need for multi-factor authentication and deprecation of POP/IMAP protocols conflicts with services run by groups such as the college of Engineering. \nMy presentation goes over the journey I made as the sysadmin for a ticketing program that needed to be able to fetch and send emails through O365 as a computer — not a human that could perform multi-factor auth. I will discuss the basic layout of the way that I solved the issue\, point out some pitfalls that arise because of the University’s bureaucracy and hierarchical structure\, and offer some tips for others trying to write middleware in the trenches. \nMy audience will understand this better if they know the underlying mechanisms of emails and how they’re sent or accessed\, as well as Office 365 authentication mechanisms. \nThe key takeaways are that writing middleware or API layers at the University can be quite difficult and challenging\, but given the right circumstances\, also successful. Another thing to learn is that challenges are almost never purely technical in nature\, a lot of obstacles that come up are going to include tasks that take people-knowledge and social skill in the workplace. An appreciation for the wide variety of business needs among campus IT will be emphasized strongly. \n\nPresenter Information \n\nBrian Wilt\n\n\nImage Licensed under Creative Commons Zero.

SUMMARY:Using Contract-First Development for the Person API to Solve Real Use-Cases - Live Session
DESCRIPTION:Conference Session \nJoin the Zoom Event \n\nDescription\n \nIn this presentation\, I will share how our team created a Person API to improve data integrations with core identity data. Using a technique called contract-first API development\, our team was able to show what the API would look like from a user perspective first\, which then influenced the technical implementation “under the hood”. I’ll also cover why we chose to create an API\, and the benefits behind using APIs for data integrations. \nAttendees should have a basic awareness or understanding of APIs would be preferred\, but isn’t required. I plan to briefly define an API as a basis for the presentation. \nAttendees will learn\n– Knowledge of what an API is\, and why someone would consume or create one.\n– Understanding of APIs compared to how most integrations are implemented at UW-Madison\, and why one might prefer an API approach.\n– Basic knowledge of API design\, and applying UX design techniques when creating a specification for an API to make sure it addresses user needs.\n– Understanding of what the Person API is\, and a basic understanding of how to get access and use it. \n\nPresenter Information \n\nJared Kosanovic\n\n\nImage by dawnydawny from Pixabay.

SUMMARY:Extension Intranet in SharePoint Online - Live Session
DESCRIPTION:Conference Session \nJoin the Zoom Event \n\nDescription\n \nExtension uses SharePoint in Office 365 as a robust\, modern Intranet for program collaboration\, administrative communication\, and business workflows. \nIn 2019 Extension merged with UW-Madison\, which required transitioning all IT infrastructure including our SharePoint-based intranet. An aggressive timeline and minimal campus support of SharePoint in Office 365 made for an exciting project. We will discuss how we migrated from a legacy on-premises SharePoint server farm to UW-Madison’s Office 365 SharePoint Online tenant\, the compromises and improvements we made\, and the relationships with DoIT that we built. \nAttendees will learn potential ways to leverage SharePoint in a large school/division\, tools and techniques for managing SharePoint migrations\, and working with SharePoint with minimal DoIT support. \nLink to SharePoint User Group \n\nPresenter Information \n\nKevin Graeme\nDeanna Schneider\n\n\nImage modified\, originally from M365 Admin.

SUMMARY:Jupyterhub in AWS for Instruction: It's only temporary\, unless it works... - Live Session
DESCRIPTION:Conference Session \nJoin the Zoom Event \n\nDescription\n \nOur presentation covers an overview of how a partnership between CS and CAE has been providing instances of Jupyterhub notebooks for instruction over the past several years. We will discuss how we have implemented the notebooks using AWS\, structured load balancing and integrated with Canvas courses. There will be some demos of the tools we’ve used including terraform\, helm and an alternating pair of A-B AWS instances for production and testing environments. We will conclude with a brief chat about future work items we are still figuring out and look for discussion with the community about best practices. \nFamiliarity with the concepts of cloud services\, AWS especially\, would be very helpful. Some familiarity with the concepts of containers and CI/CD pipelines will also help. \nAttendees will become (more) familiar with cloud resources\, learn about innovation in instructional support\, discuss when projects take off at the university and stop being “pilots”. They will also learn about ways that people can work across various units in the university and facilitate inter-departmental cooperation. \n\nPresenter Information \n\nBrian Wilt\nKen Hahn\nMichael Gibson\n\n\nOriginal Logo from Wikipedia Commons.
