HILOP / Release

HILOP 1.0

Production release notes ยท Application build 1.0.23

Release overview

HILOP 1.0 is the first production release of the Hybrid Identity Lifecycle & Operations Platform. It brings Active Directory, Microsoft Graph, Exchange, devices, reporting, workflows, utilities, and audit history into one native Windows workspace.

Supported environments

  • Windows 11 x64
  • Microsoft Commercial cloud
  • Microsoft 365 GCC High
  • Hybrid Active Directory and Microsoft Entra ID environments
  • Cloud-only Microsoft Entra ID environments, subject to provider ownership and permission requirements

Microsoft 365 DoD has not been validated and is not currently supported. Do not deploy HILOP 1.0 into a DoD tenant as a supported production configuration.

Supported functionality

Identity operations

  • Runtime profiles for simulation, hybrid, and cloud-oriented configurations
  • Active Directory lookup, directory facts, attribute editing, manager and direct-report changes, group membership, and directory reporting
  • Microsoft Graph delegated authentication with supported user, authentication posture, role, license, risk, sign-in, managed-device, BitLocker, and Windows LAPS operations
  • Exchange Online and Exchange On-Premises reads and supported recipient management through Microsoft PowerShell interfaces
  • User and device search with Entra ID, Intune, and Active Directory device actions

Automation and operations

  • Custom AD reports using live schema attributes, reusable filters, on-screen results, and CSV export
  • JSON workflow definitions, visual workflow editing, approved execution, PowerShell actions, notifications, REST integrations, and confirmations
  • Hybrid synchronization testing and invocation
  • Durable audit logging with before-and-after values for supported write operations
  • Runtime diagnostics and privacy-conscious support bundle generation
  • Machine-wide licensing, themed profile configuration, and MSI deployment

Known limitations

  • HILOP supports the operations implemented and documented by the application. It is not a replacement for every Active Directory, Graph, Intune, Purview, or Exchange administrative interface.
  • Microsoft Graph results depend on tenant licensing, delegated consent, administrative roles, Conditional Access, endpoint availability, and Microsoft cloud support.
  • In hybrid environments, directory-synchronized recipient properties must be changed at their authoritative on-premises source. Cloud writes are limited to cloud-owned objects and supported Graph operations.
  • Exchange management depends on PowerShell, the Exchange Online Management module, and correctly configured Exchange remote PowerShell for on-premises operations.
  • Workflows run under the signed-in operator's effective permissions. Only approved and reviewed workflows should be used for privileged operations.
  • Windows may display publisher warnings until Little Innovation Tech applies a publicly trusted code-signing certificate.
