I’ve just moved OnedriveMapper’s code to a public GitLab repository. I’d like the code and download itself to live there from now on.
This allows you to discuss and submit issues with the script, and more importantly, it allows everyone to fork/branch and collaborate on making it even better!
I invite everyone to participate! Check it out here: https://gitlab.com/Lieben/OnedriveMapper_V3
News and notifications about updates will of course still always be posted here.
Version 3.11 of OneDriveMapper has been released:
Important Auto Update Instructions
This version can only auto-update from a cleanly installed v3.10, lower versions will need to be reinstalled.
New Azure AD Signin experience
In IE mode, the script now redirects to the old experience, this means that IE mode will BREAK once Microsoft enforces the new experience. They have not released a timeline for this.
If I have time, I’ll include support for the new experience, but I highly recommend make sure you’re using Native auth as this is far less likely to be affected.

Version 3.10 of OneDriveMapper has been released!
Important Auto Update Instructions
If you were using Auto-Update, DO NOT do so for this version. Use the MSI to replace the old version (see last fixed issue).
New Azure AD Signin experience
As some may have read, Microsoft is previewing a potentially disruptive change without advance notice. My tenants don’t yet display the new behavior so I cannot test if OnedriveMapper will be affected. I haven’t heard of any issues yet 🙂

I’ve been ‘mentioning’ it a few times here and there, wasn’t allowed to say too much….but now it is finally public, coming before the end of the year Onedrive will have a sync on demand feature, no longer requiring local storage on your device!
It will allow all of us OnedriveMapper users to switch to a fully supported Microsoft solution for Windows 10 users.
Quirky thing is, Windows 7 and 2008 / 2012 R2 are not in scope. Possibly another good one to vote on at uservoice 🙂
Version 3.06 of OneDriveMapper has been released!

Dear OnedriveMapper users,
I’m finally convinced after the help of a large number of beta testers and other supporters that I can release OnedriveMapper V3 to the general public. I don’t expect it to work in all situations, things like MFA and Okta are not yet supported, but I believe it will benefit the majority.
OnedriveMapper V3 features a new authentication mode (‘native mode’), in which authentication takes mere seconds, improving mapping speed on average by a factor 10 or higher. In addition, OnedriveMapper can automatically switch between both authentication modes if one fails, making it far more robust.
Please check the full changelog to verify compatibility of the changes with your environment, and test carefully before deploying in production.
And thanks to those who provided me with Teamviewer access to their unique environments and/or feedback to help make OnedriveMapper the best free product to map your Onedrive for Business or Sharepoint Online libraries to a driveletter.

ADFS SmartLinks are very useful tools to get your user signed into a service super quickly. As of version 3.02, OnedriveMapper supports these links for both IE and Native authentication mode.
I wrote an article on how to create an ADFS smartlink for the Intune portal once, that should get you started, but point your smartlink to “https://{YOUR TENANT NAME}-my.sharepoint.com/_layouts/15/MySite.aspx?MySiteRedirect=AllDocuments”.
Then configure $adfsSmartLink in OnedriveMapper with your ADFS SmartLink. OnedriveMapper should then immediately get logged into Onedrive For Business, reducing logon delays by seconds or more depending on the auth method you’re using.
As of today, V3 of OnedriveMapper is in testing. It features an auto-updater and does native (no internet explorer) authentication.
The auto updater only works for OnedriveMapper Cloud beta testers, after beta OnedriveMapper Cloud will probably be a service where you can manage / control all OnedriveMapper settings as configurations for your organisation(s) centrally. OnedriveMapper Cloud comes as both a ps1 and msi version.
If you’d like to try OnedriveMapper Cloud, contact me.
Version 2.53 of OneDriveMapper has been released!
This morning I received reports that the O4B mapping was failing, but SpO ones weren’t. Digging into this I noticed that if I attempted to map the moment the script hits O4B, it did work, so OnedriveMapper now handles the timing a bit different to work with the changes Microsoft made on their end.
