How do I override the Validator's approval and move the release to a next stage in Microsoft Release Management? - ms-release-management

I have set up two stages in Microsoft Release Management - QA and PROD. I setup the account ValidatorAcc to be a Validator of the QA stage.
When this person receives an email to validate the stage and for example is unable to access his/her email service for some reason, is there a way for me to override his/her approval and do it myself as an admin?
Thank you.

This can be done in Release Management Client if you are an admin in Release Management Server:
Open Release Management Client
Go to Releases tab
Click on My Approval Requests link
If you do not see the release you are interested in, click on the Advanced Filter dropdown and uncheck Show Only Mine checkbox.
Now, you will see all the releases in progress, click on the one you need and click Approve button.

OneLogin Notification - Track reactivation of disabled/suspended/unlicensed accounts

Just getting around to setting up some more detailed reporting in our OneLogin setup, and I'm not sure how to go about the title to this question. How would I create a new notification to alert us when a user account gets reactivated in any way and by whom it was done by?
This has been somewhat helpful, but I feel like there are more OL database values that can and/or need to be used to get what I need.
In your administration panel there is a tab for Notifications under the Activity tab. You are able to configure a email notification whenever an account is reactivated.
Upon getting the email you can log into your administration panel and view the user profile within the account to view who made the changes.
I am not an expert on the UI side of Onelogin, but I work on the engineering team. There may be an easier way to do this, but the functionality is there.

Not able to configure hotmail id with azure logic app

I have a simple azure logic app as follows.
Now I add a new action after the first one.
Select an email action.
Look for send email action
Now no mater what I do, I get this error
Please check your account info and/or permissions and try again. Details: REST API is not yet supported for this mailbox. This error can occur for sandbox (test) accounts or for accounts that are on a dedicated (on-premise) mail server. clientRequestId: 9295041e-4d27-4d7f-8ac7-9f90f1cc65ff serviceRequestId: 17c7df3b-7f07-6d27-4f7b-68a4475e9b55 More diagnostic information: x-ms-client-request-id is '51B43F16-6D7C-4BE7-9AE2-7B4A6B73BA49'.
I click Change Connection above and I see these increasing number of connection, and I find no way to delete them. See the last image at the bottom.
And when I click Save, I get this message.
Save logic app failed. Failed to save logic app vivek-logic-app. Some of the connections are not authorized yet. If you just created a workflow from a template, please add the authorized connections to your workflow before saving.
And finally when I click Api Connections, I find no connections to delete.
So two questions.
How to authorize hotmail account te be used by Azure Logic App
How to delete the un-necessary connections
Ok, here it is after a good 3 hour PIA.
For the connections to manage(or delete), look at the resource group and not the Logic app.
And next for the send email action, choose Outlook.Com connection and not Office 365 Outlook. Found the answer here. Mine is personal account and not for work or for school.
Once you setup this action successfully, you can take a look at this page for managing the connection access.

Connecting Zaper to Salesforce Sandbox Troubleshoots

Writing this post because I could not locate much content on troubleshooting specifically for connecting a Salesforce Sandbox as a connected Zapier account.
First troubleshoot issue is that you must select that you wish to connect to a sandbox account from the "advanced options" feature by doing as follows
1) From Zapier dashboard, nagivate to "Connected Accounts"
2) use the search bar with text "add new account", to find Salesforce, selecting this will open a pop-up, you must select "advanced options" and then select "sandbox, instead of production.
Secondly, I had an issue with Privilege error and could not locate a soluton on the forums. Here was my solution -
1) Zapier would constantly default to connecting to an old sandbox. To cause Zapier to allow me the option of selecting a new sandbox, I had to log out of both, Zapier and all Salesforce sandboxes and Productions.
2) Once I logged onto the desired sandbox, I had an error stating I did not have the privileges to perform my requested action, despite being an admin. It turned out the new custom objects I had made in Sandbox did not have any users down as having read/write authorization and even though it was only two custom objects, this was enough to trigger a rejection for the whole Zapier-Sandbox account linking. I made a permission set for the new objects, assigned them to all users and allowed all read/write access (note, use more appropriate security settings for your organisation). This finally fixed the issue and I could now test zaps on my Sandbox.

DotNetNuke UserInfo.Membership.IsOnLine is always false even after login

I am trying to get user's online status during login. I am checking following property after ValidateUser, but it always return false.

Am i missing something?
Please help.

Important steps to Enable Online Users in DotNetNuke
The “Users Online” module works on a background thread (via the scheduler) to add and expire users from the users online list. The scheduled job should exist in your installation, but it is disabled by default.
To enable the scheduled job:-
Login to your portal as a Super User account (e.g. host)
Navigate to Host -> Schedule
Edit the “DotNetNuke.Entities.Users.PurgeUsersOnline, DOTNETNUKE” job (click the pencil)
Check “Scheduled Enabled”
Click Update
Click 'run now' to get effect on the spot.
Now that you have configured the scheduled job, your users should begin to process background users. The problem is that there is an additional host setting you must set before this can occur.
To enable users online:-
Login to your portal as a Super User account (e.g. host)
Navigate to Host -> Host Settings
Expand “Other Settings”
Check “Enable Users Online”
Click Update
maybe a dumb question, but did you check whether users online feature is turned on in the host settings --> other settings?
