SharePoint, Brand Center and CDN questions
I'm hoping someone can help me untangle the new Brand Center and the CDNs it is using My understanding: You can create Org Asset Libraries that use private CDNs The Brand Center requires the use of a public CDN You can have an existing org asset library in place when you create the brand center, and the brand center will use the site where the existing org asset libraries are as the brand center app/site BUT - you have to enable the use of the public CDN when adding brand center to the org asset site. This is the part I haven't found documentation detailing the public vs private CDNs used for this feature. Questions: What content is being broadcast on the public CDN when you create a brand center from scratch? Is it just the fonts, or are other assets created with the brand center utilizing the public CDN? Do org asset libraries using private CDNs continue to use private CDNs after adding the brand center or are the private CDNs converted to public CDNs? Can you add more private CDN org asset libraries to an existing brand center, or are all asset libraries created going forward using the public CDN?mjbairdFeb 11, 2025Copper Contributor199Views3likes2Commentsowners vs site owners vs members vs site members vs access to site content
I'm fairly new to SharePoint administrations and have been trying to wrap my head around permissions... Can someone explain to me the difference between owners and site owners as in the screenshot below, and how it relates to access to the site? I found this article (Admin center site permissions reference - SharePoint in Microsoft 365 | Microsoft Learn) but there must be something more to it. I've removed someone from the "Owners" group but kept this same person in three other groups where she was present: "Site owners", "Members" and "Site Members". After I removed this person from the "Owners" group, this person lost access to a document library folder. The document library in question has restricted access with a number of people being granted access nominally. I don't know if this person was in the list or if, being an "Owner" and "Site owner", the access was granted automatically. Nevertheless, re-introducing this person as an "Owner" was not enough and I had to grant her access nominally to that restricted document library. So I don't understand why (1) removing from "Owner" (even kepping her in all other groups) made her lose access and (2) why I had to grant access nominally (being an "Owner" and "Site owner" was not enough)? Any ideas? Thanks, Alexaarantes_adminFeb 11, 2025Copper Contributor6.6KViews0likes1CommentMicrosoft/SharePoint lists - error messages, new feature?
We've recently noticed what I think is a new feature in Microsoft lists - an icon appears immediately following the list name that indicates there has been issues saving items. When clicking on this icon you get taken to a list of all items that have not saved. Above the list title, there are buttons that allow you to 'Discard all' or 'Save all'' I'm trying to find documentation about this feature so I can understand what my users are supposed to do when these error messages come up. Online searches have so far proved fruitless. Grateful for any info anyone can provide.Jenny_BruceFeb 11, 2025Brass Contributor35Views0likes2CommentsExcel Online Synchronization Issues
Good day, I have noticed recently that the excel online file, stored in our sharepoint drive, takes long to upload changes. It takes about 3 mins. It used to take about 30 seconds. It even takes longer if the excel file is opened by multiple users. What could be causing this problem? Kindly assist.coduetseFeb 11, 2025Copper Contributor85Views0likes2CommentsHow to setup a lookup relationship between 2 fields in separate lists
Hi, I have a lookup field in a list (e.g. asset list) which lookups up people from a (e.g. user list). When I lookup and associate a user from the user list in the asset list, I would like that it creates a link record within the user list. Currently, what I do is that I need to go to the items in both lists and populate the lookup field accordingly. Can I do anything to automatically add the relationship in the second list items as relevant?

Hi, I have looked on the community for views on this, but I think that my question is high level and probably basic for what I have found so far. Asking here. I am trying to migrate a list from a SaaS tool into SPO List. I can export the list into .csv or .xls format for import in SPO. On our first trials, all seem to work. we found a challenge with the SPO list field types, which we later fix manually after the data is imported and the columns created. The problem that I am facing is that some columns are created with a col type which is not what we need, and we CANNOT edit the col to change the type. Initially I suspected that during the import SPO used a predefined col which can not be changed, but I found more then 1 or 2 cases in the same list. Have you seen this before and what have you done about it? ThanksRuka_ZillFeb 11, 2025Brass Contributor5Views0likes0CommentsList alla subsites that users is member in on a landingpage!

I'd like to start using approvals for certain doc libraries. I've turned them on and, on the SharePoint side, they appear to be working, but the site owner is not getting approval emails. (I'm the site owner BTW.) My account gets other emails from SharePoint just find and our Exchange admin says nothing's being blocked to my account. The library settings are below. What am I missing? In Microsoft's documentation, the only place I can find to designate approval accounts are for page approvals via Power Automate. I set that up as well, thinking maybe that would transfer to doc library approvals, but nope. (Page approvals are working find BTW.)LucidBike1140Feb 11, 2025Iron Contributor105Views0likes1Comment
