Sympraxis Consulting: Summer Newsletter โ˜€๏ธ



Big changes ahead for SharePoint Online ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

Start preparing now!

You may have heard that Microsoft is retiring SharePoint 2013 workflows. Did you also know that at the same time they are retiring SharePoint add-ins, and Azure Access Control Services (ACS) in SharePoint Online?

These retirements can potentially have a big impact on organizations. While the retirement notification has been out for a while, the deadline for functionality to stop working is coming up in April 2026.

We felt like this was something important to share because depending on your organizationโ€™s use of workflows or add-ins, this could be a project that requires time and budget that you should want to get ahead of.

What's the timeline?

Additional Details

If you want to know how to check if your organization has any of these retiring technologies or what steps you should take to migrate to modern technology, check out our latest episode of Ask Sympraxis where we covered this topic in detail. If all of this feels like too much, or you want some assistance, reach out to us and we can help you make sense of it all.

I wonโ€™t go into all the nitty gritty details here, but at a high level, the free ride we have had with unlicensed OneDrives is ending. If you want to preserve OneDrives after their owners have left...
