Project Journal: Changing SharePoint URL – Success

Feb 6, 2023

—

My SharePoint domain name changed this morning as scheduled! I will try to retrace my steps and post screenshots with links to the references tomorrow. Day 27 of #100DaysofIndieWeb, #IndieWeb, #ProjectJournal, #SharePoint

The Steps

Changing the site address would have been easier. ✅
Install Homebrew (whatever that is :-))✅
Install PowerShell (Mac Version)✅
Changing the SharePoint Domain takes a few more steps.✅
- The Custom Domain Name textbook is active for this step.
  - “In the Custom domain name box, enter the full new “.onmicrosoft.com” domain, and then select Add domain.”
- I added the tmichellemoore.onmicrosoft.com domain.
Install the SharePoint Online Management Shell✅
Run SharePoint Online Management Shell
- Share Point Online Management Shell does not fully work on a Mac
Options based on my current progress:
- Forget about this whole project.
- Purchase Parallels ($99) and run the Windows version of the SharePoint Online Management Shell.
- Use Bootcamp, run Windows, and the SharePoint Online Management Shell.
- Use an Azure Virtual Machine. ✅
  - Advice from @box464@mastodon.social, make sure to turn of the VM.
