JSON formatting within SharePoint not functioning?
Hello! Has anyone noticed a sudden degradation with JSON formatting across SharePoint? I have code on a SharePoint list that has suddenly stopped working properly when I use it on another view. I cannot see to even be able to modify simple, out of the box things, like the width or height of the tile. Anyone know if there is a bug with JSON formatting at the moment?
Site Level retention policy Vs Content type level retention policy
Inside the "Data Life Cycle management" we can define a retention policy that get applied to the whole site collection, as follow:- Also at the content type level inside our lists and libraries we can apply a retention policy, as follow:- so if the site has a retention policy applied from the "Data Life Cycle management" and we also have a retention policy applied to the content type.. which one will get applied to the underlying documents and lists and why? the one at the site level or the one at the content type level? ThanksHow approves or users can see all the pending approval requests?
We have 10++ sites and on some lists and libraries, inside those sites we define content approval at the list/library level:- Now the users are bit confused, on how they can access those approval requests? is there a screen they can access to see all those pending approval requests? either for all sites or the current site? as currently most of the items and files are pending approval and no one is taking action on them Thanks
Handling duplicate files in a Sharpoint library
Hi, I need some help regarding an issue I have in Sharepoint library. We have several libraries containing files (Word, Excel, PDF, PPT). Once these are in Approved status they are moved to a library called "Published". The problem occurs when the file has the same name in 2 (or more) libraries and are copied to "Published" library. Right now it is renaming with a suffix number after the name, but this is not ideal. Is it possible to have the same name on both (or several) files if the metadata is different?
Document Properties
Hello, We have a document library of images. We have built columns of Metadata to update on the images under properties. These are all linked to term sets and function well 70% of the time. Lately, the analyst has noticed when updating the properties that they will not always update on the first try. This can happen on either an individual item or when she edits 4 to 5 at once. We have checked to make sure all the properties she is editing are contained within that view. It continues to occur intermittently. The library size is over 6300 items, which I know can cause issues. Is that what is causing this failure to update or is something else awry? Thanks for the help!
Upload Documents ANd Require check out on Modern Vs Classic Experience Document libraries
Recently switched SharePoint Online site libraries from Classic to Modern. Getting following experience. Classic Behaviour: when we drag and drop new versions (same name) of existing library items, SharePoint automatically checks out the existing items > we update metadata > check in Modern Behaviour: when we drag and drop new versions (same name) of existing library items, SharePoint requires that we first manually check out existing library items of same name before we can drag and drop the new versions into library > drag and drop new versions > update metadata > check in This is very frustating for our document controllers as they upload hundred of documents daily. Any workaround or configuration?
Unable to Create a Rule on a Library with Contribute Permission
Hi the community, I tried to create a rule on a document library where I have Contribute permission. However, when I click on "Create a rule", I get a blank window. Strangely, with the same permission level on a list, it works as expected. Do you know if this is a known limitation? Do you have any workaround to suggest? Thanks in advance.
New post titles aren't saving for the page title and URL
When users create a new page, the page URL is something like https://company.sharepoint.com/sites/Region/SitePages/Page(6).aspx instead of the title of the post. I see there's now a new location to set the page title. Why is this necessary and why has the inherit function of setting the page title as the title of the post gone away? Why does Microsoft continue to make our work increasingly less productive requiring users to take more steps to do less work? Is there a site setting somewhere to re-enable setting the page title to the title of the post?What happens when storage capacity changed manually from Admin portal for SharePoint Site ?

Thanks.Classic Site With Modern Libraries Not Templating To Modern Libraries
Users have one main site collection and create multiple sub sites using classic site template. Users converted libraries to modern experience in site used as template. After saving the site as template and creating new site using that template, we expected the new site would retain libraries modern experience and custom formatting settings but these settings/configurations are not templating over to new site. Wondering if somebody has similar experience and share any workarounds. Currently we are looking at either using script to modify the configuration or manually doing it after creating new site from classic site template. Any thoughts?
