NOTE – PDF format updated to include both SharePoint 2013, 2016, and 2019 notes.

Ever wondered what fixes are inside of a given CU?   Please see attached PDF with full detail. I wanted a new format for easy reading.   Show management and make the business case for why downtime should be taken to apply CUs.  Also posted at https://sharepointupdates.com/

FIXED – SharePoint Designer login with MFA (Multi Factor Auth)

Quick demonstration of how to login to to SharePoint Designer with MFA  (Multi Factor Auth).

We first establish a web browser session (with MFA push code) and view the “/_api/web” REST endpoint.

We copy the “FedAuth” and “RtFa” authentication cookies to append on all outbound Fiddler HTTP traffic.  From there, SPD will login without any prompt.

Cheers!
