List toolbar randomly missing
I have a site there the list toolbar randomly doesn't appear 50% of the time. Refreshing the page usually loads it correctly. There are several lists and libraries on this same site. The issue is happening for all of them. First image is where it's suppose to be. Second image is what it's suppose to be. There is no custom formatting involved here. It's also happening in three different browsers I've tried (Chrome, Edge, Firefox). I've also noticed that some of the other list formatting doesn't show as well for the choice columns. Thanks for your help!gsreddin51Nov 13, 2024Copper Contributor402Views1like4CommentsSharepoint Excel not automatically syncing responses from MS Forms until opened
The recent MS Forms update done messed up the syncing of SP Excel wherein responses from MS Forms are being synced to. My dataset in Power BI is currently connected to the SP Excel containing the MS Forms responses and even though the scheduled refresh for the dataset is pushing through, it is not displaying the latest records unless I open the SP Excel and a "Syncing.." status will appear. Only then will I be able to refresh the dataset in Power BI containing the latest records. What would be the best workaround to update the Excel file in Sharepoint automatically once a response in MS Forms is added?JaizeNov 13, 2024Occasional Reader13Views0likes0CommentsShare link not created when sending to users
I've noticed a change in how links are created, specifically when the option to send a link is selected. It looks like a bug to me, not a feature. Has anyone seen documentation, updates or known issues about this? Steps: Share a selected file using 'People you specify' or 'People in [your org]' Add users Select Send User is emailed standard email and link to document User is added to 'Manage access' under people and given direct access No link is created under "Links" Happening on multiple Australian tenants. When created using 'Copy link' or 'Send link in Outlook' the link is created under the 'Links' tab in Manage access - as per normal behaviour.MattBurrNov 12, 2024Iron Contributor29Views1like3CommentsNested Dynamic Filtering on web parts does not work
I created a Sharepoint page and added an MS list web part, which I use as a "filter" selection. Then, I added a second MS list to display the main list of content items, configured with Dynamic filtering based on selecting the "filter" list. Then, I added a Document library web part, which is again configured with Dynamic Filtering based on the selection of the second content item list. Unfortunately, when you select an item from the "filter" list and then select an item from the second "content" list, the document library does not update based on the selection. HOWEVER.. If I select an item from the second "content" list without selecting an item from the "filter" list, the document library updates and shows the filtered content correctly. Any idea why it would not work and how to fix this? Seems like it should work363Views0likes14CommentsSwapping a root site, but maintaining a list
Hi all, We are swapping our dated root site for a modern site. Our current root site was created back in 2016, and uses SharePoint classic. We plan to swap for a modern site and launch with a fresh look for our organization's intranet. I understand when swapping a root site, the initial root site's site collection is archived. Including lists. We have an expansive IT Intake list on our current root site, which includes workflows that send email approvals, as well as Jira integrations. We still use this IT Intake list. Is there any way to preserve the IT Intake list and/or migrate it, its workflows, and content onto the new root site without losing any data or duplicating our efforts? I have seen that you can extract the list and import it to a new list, but this is not ideal. As a note: we cannot use third-party migration tools at this time. Thanks!BDaniel1015Nov 12, 2024Copper Contributor12Views0likes0CommentsFolder Permissions Question
Hello, In our organization we have a site called Toolbox for Employees which has all of the forms, documents, etc. that our staff needs to access. The idea is that we have templates of the forms that the staff is to download, fill out, save with a new name, then upload back to a different folder for completed forms. The problem is that often they edit the existing form which now means the template is screwed up for everybody else. There are also other folders inside the Toolbox for Employees that they do need to edit within the folder. My question is how can I best set up permissions that will prevent the editing of the form templates, but still allow the staff to download, edit, then reupload to a different folder while still allowing the other folders to remain open for editing? For example: Folder 1 is named No Editing. (For example) Folder 2 is called Editing. I want the staff to be able to access, download, and upload files from Folder 1 but not edit live on SharePoint. Folder 2 I want them to be able to view, edit, download etc. Any guidance will be appreciated.

Hi, Is there any reference document available to look into details related to crawl type and its frequency in SharePoint Online? Also, how much time it takes to news appear in search result?pratikdarak21Nov 12, 2024Brass Contributor13Views0likes1CommentDifference between two SharePoint Sites
I am struggling to understand the difference between the two different versions of “team sites” in SharePoint. I understand that a communications site has “https://froneri365.sharepoint.com/sites/” prefix. Furthermore, my understanding was that the team site had the prefix “https://froneri365.sharepoint.com/teams/” That is if I create communications site from the SharePoint admin panel, I get/sites/ prefix, if I create 365group first, and then create a team using that group, I get a SharePoint site with /teams/ prefix. However now when I got my hands on and export of SharePoint sites from our tenant, and I have some sites that have /sites/ prefix, but have “Team site” as a Template attribute, while others have “Communication site” as an attribute. What is the difference between these two “/sites/” sites? My main concern is permission management, and converting the sites to hubs. And what is the difference between the two sites with "Team site" template attribute but with different prefixes, one with /teams/ prefix and the other with /sites/ prefix Mind you I have no access to the SharePoint admin portal, so I cannot create SharePoint sites via the admin portal, only via Office365 group. Thank youPetersDaveNov 12, 2024Copper Contributor14Views0likes1CommentRegarding the "App Catalog" in SharePoint 2019
Hi there, When the customization (ListView Command Set extension: Microsoft Sample: Build your first ListView Command Set extension | Microsoft Learn) was done, and it was uploaded to the App Catalog (http://win-xxxxx:19065/sites/apps), everything was well. And I also can "Add an App" in the "Site Content" But I cannot find any changes in my list in "http://win-xxxxx:19065/", I try to create a new list, and the custom function went well in App Catalog (http://win-xxxxx:19065/sites/apps). Even I want to "Add an App" in "http://win-xxxxx:19065/", I also cannot find the new App in "App you can add". Is there any idea on this? or which steps was ignored? ThanksWei-PainterNov 12, 2024Copper Contributor111Views0likes2CommentsExternal Users Blocked from Downloading Files – Conditional Access Policy Stuck or Misbehaving?...
We recently updated and added several Conditional Access policies, including one that blocks downloading, printing, and syncing from unmanaged devices. This policy was initially tested with a small group of 2-3 users. However, we noticed that when employees share an external link, external recipients can log in but cannot download files. They see a yellow banner stating that "downloading, printing, or syncing is blocked etc." We have since disabled related Conditional Access policies and waited the required 24 hours for changes to take effect. Additionally, Microsoft Support has been involved for three days but has not yet resolved the issue. Any suggestions? Its an only cloud environmentPabloGNov 12, 2024Copper Contributor77Views0likes6Comments
