Processing status pane coming in July for SharePoint Autofill columns and document translation!

Hello Karl_Harriau​,

Thanks for the write-up. The pane is a real improvement, but I am hitting a scale limit with it.

In a production scenario I see roughly 10% of files fail autofill processing. When I re-run autofill manually on the same file, it succeeds every time, so the failure does not come from the document itself. Something fails on the service side and there is no retry.

Two things make this hard to live with:

1. No automatic retry. Every failed file has to be found and re-triggered by hand.

2. The pane is scoped to a single library. My use case has more than 250 document libraries in the same site (permission segmentation), with hundreds of files uploaded every day. Nobody can realistically open 200 panes to look for failures.

So two questions:

- Is an automatic retry on failure planned for autofill columns?

- Is there any cross-library or site-level view of processing failures, or a supported API / Power Automate action to re-trigger autofill on a file? Right now the only options I can find are undocumented REST calls (thank you @Leon amstrong), which I would rather not put into production.

Any guidance would be very welcome.
