Azure RMS

Question

Hi,

I have the below questions regarding RMS:

• RMS is intended for internal use, correct? Or can it be used externally with other companies who do have RMS enabled in their organization?
• Policies which are enabled in Azure don't show in OWA. I believe there was a Powershell command that needed to be run on Exchange Online.
• We have created a new group in Azure which could be used in RMS templates, but for some reason now it's showing with an 'X' and cannot select it.
• We also tried using RMS Viewer however to set up you need to input a server name. Is that a common server name (example: outlook.office365.com) or do I need a specific server name?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards,

Johnross

Answer 1

Can be shared externally.

Policies for Exchange (OWA) are different as they deal with email, not documents.

Not sure about the group, might be a bug

The RMS viewer app is for on-prem servers. With Azure RMS, use the RMS sharing app instead: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn339006.aspx

There's very detailed documentation on Azure RMS and FAQ, I suggest you go over them: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn750853.aspx

Answer 2

Vasil took care of most of your questions. For #3, does the group have an email address? That's a requirement.

Answer 3

Brian, I added an email to the group and it worked. Thanks.

Dear Vasil, many thanks for the detailed documentation. I'll check it out and open a new thread if need be. Do you know how to set policies for OWA?

Thanks,

Johnross

If asking about rights policy templates for Azure RMS please see the following resource. It contains a section about Exchange Online and templates as well.
