Sharepoint Online Templates / Provisioning.
Hello everyone, I have a SharePoint online site that is as close as possible to being a template for my tenant. I'd like to save this site and make it available to me when I need to create a standard site for my tenant. Do you know if there is a possibility to save it and then pick it in the SharePoint list of templates in the creation phase in SharePoint? I know there is a PnP solution; however, after trying it I've had some bad results when trying to use a script with Get-PnPSiteTemplate many times it doesn't replicate the site correctly. I essentially need to take one SharePoint site, and just replicate the structure, DLs, Lists, Views, pages, designs, colours and thumbnails, no files needed. Possibly saving it as a template, but if not possible, just provision it via PnP PowerShell would be enough. Do you have any suggestions or scripts to recommend, or can you point me to any resources?
Restrict a library view for document uploader
Want to create a SP library where people will be uploading documents from different departments. Is there a way that i can lockdown a view where anybody coming in can only see their own uploads? Maybe use the last modified column or create a person column? The owner and small group does need the ability to see them all. ty
Unusual Activity for a User
Hi, I have an issue with a user who raised a query that they are having issues syncing files to SharePoint. Whilst I'm investigating this another query came in advising that this same user has been creating folders and uploading documents...... They have confirmed that there account has not been shared and can confirm from the signing in logs on Entra that no suspicious IP address is being used. Anyone have any idea of what is occurring?? I've advised the user to delete any links they have and stop syncing. Regards Chris
SharePoint Document-ID and Chinese characters braking search
I am struggling with a strange phenomenon. We use the Document-ID on SharePoint extensively, especially for searching. So we search specifically for SharePoint Document-IDs, e.g., EMTS-1223334444-123, to find the document. This works fine with 10 million documents, except for PDF documents with Chinese characters. I can search for phrases in the text content or other properties, and everything is found. Only the search by Document-ID does not work.
Create new site through App Reg auth and associate it with a hub site
Hi all, I have created a Logic App in Azure and I am using this Logic App to create new team sites (no Microsoft 365 group) in SharePoint Online. For the authentication I have created an app registration (Sites.FullControl.All) and created a self-signed certificate for the authentication. For the audience I am using the https://tenantname-admin.sharepoint.com I am using the following request URL: https://tenantname-admin.sharepoint.com/_api/SPSiteManager/create I am using the following request headers: Accept = application/json;odata.metadata=none odata-version = 4.0 I use the following request body: { "request": { "Title": "Site name", "Url": "<project number variable>", "Lcid": 1043, "Description": "Just some text", "WebTemplate": "STS#3", "Owner": "email address removed for privacy reasons", "SensitivityLabel": "Sensitivity label GUID", "HubSiteId": "Hub site ID" } } Somehow, I get an unauthorized error. When I omit the HubSiteId parameter, it works fine. In the SharePoint admin center I have not configured users that are authorized to associate sites with the hub sites. I also tried to assign the app registration through PowerShell, but it doesn't work. My question is, how can I authorize the app registration to associate the site with the hub site specified upon creating the new site? Thanks for all help provided!Not able to edit items in list due to too many versions.
I have a sharepoint list and some of the items cannot be edited because of the number of versions. I have the versioning set at 50, but some of these uneditable items somehow got up to over 10,000. Any ideas on how to resolve or how they got so high? Thanks
Permission settings only to edit my record
Hi. I have a List connected with Power Apps, so i have to share permissions with the autors to create and edit. However, if they enter to the list on SharePoint they can edit everything, their own records and those which other users created. In my process this action shouldn't happen ¿Is there some way to set a permission where I can only edit the records that I have created?Tables in Word Docs Stored on SharePoint Breaking
Custom Table Styles are breaking in Word documents stored on SharePoint. This started a week ago after a recent Office update. A solution of having only one person editing the document at a time defeats the purpose of SharePoint collaboration. Always editing in the desktop app is not a reliable solution either; not all tools are available in the browser. Tables break and fix themselves without intervention - sometimes in the desktop app and sometimes in the browser. Any insight is appreciated.
Sharepoint view level permissions
Hello, I’m facing an issue in SharePoint. I have a main list where I need to create two views one for “A” users and another for “B” users. What should change is, for example, that “A” users can only see column “A” and “B” users can only see column “B”. And being sensitive data, they shouldn't be able see each other's columns. Using different lists is the only viable way I currently see this working, which i don't really want since this requires a lot more of work, unless someone can suggest a better solution. Note that currently I'm using two different pages inside the same website for user's "A" and "B". Thank you very much.
