Windowsserverdocs: Article is largely incorrect

[revjonnyflash]

I was plagued with issues during setup. Even after 2 weeks with support there was no progress being made. I ended up finding a 3rd party guide and found that much of this article is out of order and inaccurate. The biggest example I have is that it first has you create app registrations and then the native app and two app proxies. The way it is actually done is you create the app proxies, then you open those proxies in app registration and set the URIs to the addresses in the app registration steps. These steps result in 5 total app or registrations where there should only be 3.

This article resulted in about 3 weeks of frustration only to find the official documentation was wrong and missing massive important steps.

Thanks for this feedback. You're absolutely correct that this article needs update. I'm sorry about the time lost because of that. We will fix it.

I'm struggling to get this working too. Is there any timeframe known in which we can expect working documentation?

@jleger88: Can you please share the 3rd party guide you mentioned?

[lizap]

We published an update to this article, so I'm going to close the issue for now. Please feel free to re-open if necessary. Thanks!

This article has been pretty painful to read through. Should I be using three app registrations or five? The guide as written has me setup 5, and I'm still unsure what the value for https:///RedirectUrl is supposed to be. Would recommend rewriting to remove any steps where the word 'repeat steps' are used, and being detailed as possible assuming the user knows nothing. Maybe creating a table at the beginning a user can fill in for variables. The article is also vague when referring to the Mopria Cloud Service. Is it a Discovery Service or no?

[pyoungberg]

Had to copy the sqlite3.exe to the directory referenced in step 2.7. Just kind of guessed the instructions there.

[pyoungberg]

Step 4 CloudPrinterDiscoveryEndPoint doen't even make sense. External URL of the Mopria Discovery Service Azure Application Proxy created in Step 3.3 (must be exactly the same but without the trailing /) refers to a step where you setup an SPN, not an App Proxy App.

[pyoungberg]

Maybe instead of telling users to 'use any name' when creating an App Registration / Proxy you could provide an example name for clarity? The instructions make it very easy to confuse these 5 when you refer to them all as "Mopria Discovery Service Azure Application Proxy"

Stepp 2.8.D contains random slashes where they shouldn't be
ms-appx-web://Microsoft.AAD.BrokerPlugin/\ Should be:
ms-appx-web://Microsoft.AAD.BrokerPlugin/
