Add KONNEKT paths as Trusted sites

Situation

Users cannot open files e.g. Excel macro files by double clicking on it in KONNEKT.

Problem

All SharePoint URLs and the corresponding UNC path used in KONNEKT need to be set as trusted sites

Solution

These can be set in:

• Internet options in Edge or Internet Explorer (for Windows 10 users)

• Trust Center in an Office app of your choice

• Or via an Intune policy

Intune

• Create new profile for "Windows 10 and later"

• Profile type "Settings catalog"

• Search for "security pages"

• Select the following category

Windows Components > Internet Explorer > Internet Control Panel > Security Page

• Use either

  • Site to Zone Assignment List

  • Site to Zone Assignment List (User)

• Set all three paths - UNC and URL

"<TenantName>.sharepoint.com"      = "2",
"<TenantName>-my.sharepoint.com"   = "2",
"\\OneDrive-<TenantName>" = "2"​

TenantName is defined by the initial or the default tenant name set in Microsoft's Admin Center. This depends if "EnhancedAuthentication" is enabled.

Setting this up won't pretend Outlook from displaying a Security notice.
