When a user accesses a resource, instead of signing in to login.microsoftonline.com, the user is sent directly to the identity provider (IdP). If you configured Integrated Windows Authentication on AD FS and the user's computer is domain-joined, the user will have a seamless single sign-on experience, just like accessing an on-premises resource. +Auto-acceleration is a feature in SharePoint that lets you specify the default identity provider endpoint for your organization. When a user accesses a resource, instead of signing in to login.microsoftonline.com, the user is sent directly to the identity provider (IdP). When you set up Integrated Windows Authentication on Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) and the user's computer belongs to the domain, the user can sign in without entering credentials, as if they were accessing a resource within the network. ## Requirements -To enable auto-acceleration, you must have a single identity provider (IdP).

SharePoint must have a specific site to target when accelerating. Your organization can have multiple domains as long as there's a single IdP endpoint. ## Enable auto-acceleration To enable auto-acceleration, you need to use Microsoft PowerShell. ### What can I do to make the experience as smooth as possible for my users? -A: You can do two things. First, make sure your internal and external sites are clearly separated. Second, encourage users to access internal sites first as part of their daily workflow. Perhaps consider creating an internal-only site that serves as a welcome page. You can also modify your Group Policy so that users will be directed to an internal home page whenever they open their browser. After the user has signed in to one site (by using either method), they won't be prompted to sign to other sites. +A: You can do two things.

After the user signs in to one site (by using either method), they won't be prompted to sign to other sites. ### What do I need to do to take advantage of auto acceleration on externally shared sites? -A: Guests can potentially authenticate in one of three places: Microsoft Entra ID (if their organization is a "cloud" organization or they use a Microsoft account), the IdP of the user's organization, or your IdP (if you use an on-premises extranet solution). If you want to enable auto-acceleration for externally shared sites, your IdP needs to be able to support these use cases (or at least the ones that you want your guests to use). To support guests in Microsoft Entra ID, Microsoft account, or other IdPs, your IdP needs to be able to return the user to the Microsoft Entra sign-in screen for authentication. +A: Guests can potentially authenticate in one of three places: +- Microsoft Entra ID (if their organization is a "cloud" organization or they use a Microsoft account) +- The IdP of the user's organization +- Your IdP (if you use an on-premises extranet solution) ++If you want to enable auto-acceleration for externally shared sites, your IdP needs to be able to support these use cases (or at least the ones that you want your guests to use).

How to get started Moving to modern navigation from classic SharePoint navigation is a process that depends on the size of your organization and the complexity of your tenantΓÇÖs configuration. Below are general guidelines and tools you can use to get started: These are special considerations for planning hub navigation. A site can be: - Associated to a hub and not be in the hub navigation - In the hub navigation and not associated to the hub -*Example 1* - Site is in the hub navigation and associated to the hub +*Example 1* - Site is in the hub navigation and associated to the hub. -Showcasing sites associated to the hub allows viewers to discover the sites within the hub family and easily navigate among and across the ΓÇ£family members.ΓÇ¥ Adding an associated site to the hub navigation displays the organizational framework for the collection of sites in the hub navigation. All sites in the hub share a common theme and navigation helps to establish the identity of the hub family both visually and via viewer interaction. Your hub links can go to sites or content pages or a combination of both ΓÇô but use the practices described for link labeling to ensure that you are providing clear and consistent experiences. +Showcasing sites associated to the hub allows viewers to discover the sites within the hub family and easily navigate among and across the ΓÇ£family members.ΓÇ¥ Adding an associated site to the hub navigation displays the organizational framework for the collection of sites in the hub navigation.

Your hub links can go to sites or content pages or a combination of both ΓÇô but use the practices described for link labeling to ensure that you're providing clear and consistent experiences. -When you choose to show all associated sites (and associate hubs) in the hub navigation, think about whether all the people who have access to the hub will also have access to each of the sites associated to the hub. For example, if you add links to private sites in the navigation, you are increasing their "discoverability," which can be a good thing ΓÇô if the site owners for those private sites are prepared to get access requests. However, you may not want to show restricted sites in the navigation if the site owner does not want the site or the content to be discovered. +When you choose to show all associated sites (and associate hubs) in the hub navigation, think about whether all the people who have access to the hub will also have access to each of the sites associated to the hub.

However, you may not want to show restricted sites in the navigation if the site owner doesn't want the site or the content to be discovered. To ensure that your hub navigation links keep their promises, consider the following options: -- For links that should not be discoverable to all viewers, target the link so that it only shows up for audiences who have access to the content.+- For links that shouldn't be discoverable to all viewers, target the link so that it only shows up for audiences who have access to the content. -- For "discoverable" but restricted links, consider adding the word restricted, or request access, or private to the label. Have a conversation with those site owners to make sure that they are prepared for potentially more frequent access requests.

If the use case for your hub is primarily about sharing a common theme or for rolling up content for people who are members of private sites, you may want to associate a site to a hub but not showcase the site in the shared hub navigation. One reason that this might be OK is that the members of the private sites already know about the sites and don't need the hub to provide links to the site. However, these same site members would find it useful to see the news and activity rolled up from their private sites on the hub (via the Highlighted Content and News web parts. -Another reason not to show associated sites is that the owners of one or more private sites do not want the sites to be discovered in the hub navigation or they are not prepared to manage unexpected access requests. +Another reason not to show associated sites is that the owners of one or more private sites don't want the sites to be discovered in the hub navigation or they are not prepared to manage unexpected access requests. -*Example 3* - Site is added to hub navigation but not associated to the hub +*Example 3* - Site is added to hub navigation but not associated to the hub. One of the nice features of hub navigation is that it allows you to plan a shared navigation experience for all the sites associated to the hub ΓÇô including links to frequently needed sites that are not part of the hub. -If a site is associated to a hub, it is reflected in the hub navigation. You may not want all sites that are related to the hub "family" to be associated to the hub. For example, consider a scenario when you are collaborating with external partners on a team site. You may not want to associate external sites to your hub because you may not want to display the shared navigation for the hub to external partners.
