Add content type file to every new document library created in a site
I created a new template via content type that I want to be available in every document library (existing and new). For existing document libraries on the site and subsites, I can manually add the template but there are 300 subsites with 4 folders each. I'm looking for a faster way to do this. Also, I want the template added to every new folder that is created on the main site or subsites. What is the solution?
SharePoint view filtered to Me
Hello! Is it possible to create a view, or JSON format a view, when a field contains my information that is not a people picker field? I have a multiple line of text field where I enter a JSON object with user emails. Is there a way to change the view to only show the line item if that text field contains my email? I have tried using that field with Contains [Me] but that does not work. Presumably as [Me] is for people picker fields. Is there a way to add a filter to the view to look for my email?
Managed MetaData and Document Libraris
Hello, we are currently going through the process of setting up managed metadata tags on our SharePoint Online systems. The requirement has been identified that any documents need to be tagged with some labels, and I would like to make it so that, when the user creates or uploads a document to the libraries in question, that there be a popup window or some other form of forced interaction for the user that will require them to set the tags that we are wanting to use. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated, cheers.NEW! SharePoint Lists & Libraries: Default Approvers for Configure Approvals Explained
🚀 New SharePoint Feature Alert! Microsoft has just introduced a super useful capability in SharePoint Lists and Document Libraries: the option to set Default Approvers when configuring approval workflows. This small but powerful enhancement removes repetitive manual steps and makes approval automation more consistent across teams using SharePoint + Power Automate. In my latest YouTube video, I walk through how this feature works, how to set it up, and why it can significantly streamline your approval processes. 🎥 Watch the full breakdown here: https://youtu.be/Xxn-IrKVh6E 👍 If you find it useful, let me know in the comments! #SharePoint #Microsoft365 #PowerAutomate #Productivity #M365 #SharePointOnline #Automation #DigitalTransformation
Linking documents/pictures to other sites?
What is the correct way to use documents and images stored in a Home Site library on other SharePoint sites? I need to embed images and create hyperlinks to documents on pages in other sites. I have been using the “Copy link” button, which creates a sharing link with individual user permissions. The problem is that if I move the picture to another folder within the same library, the image sometimes disappears from the page. Occasionally the share link still works after moving the file, but not always. What is the recommended way to do this, and is it fully supported?Migrating large number of Nintex based SPS 2019 Workflows to SPO
Hi SP Brain trust, We’re migrating a SharePoint 2019 on-prem farm (200+ sites) to SharePoint Online, which includes massive 100+ Nintex workflows heavily used across the business and we’re working within a tight timeline which makes it a massive challenge to go down the modernisation path. Has anyone migrated a large number of Nintex workflows (100+ ) from SharePoint 2019 to SharePoint Online using 3rd party tooling? What approach or tools did you use, how much manual rework was involved, and what was your overall success rate and effort like?

OMG- could they f up sharepoint any more. It used to be such a powerful tool. It is harder than ever now. So- embed a lits in a page with a list part. I am showing controls and on default view-no search. there is now also NO FILTER PART so i go to github patterns and practices to download. Butttttt, I can't upload because while I am global admin, I am not sharepoint admin and cannot change my permissions. Create second admin account with all permissions. Tr to update my normal account permissions, and it says "you do not have permission to save." SO- do you know any other way to get a search of a list on a page? And - any thoughts on my permissions hell?SharePoint Page Copilot Agent Overview | New AI Page Creation in Microsoft 365
🚀 Create SharePoint Pages Without Even Opening SharePoint? Yes — It’s Finally Here. Microsoft has introduced the SharePoint Page Copilot Agent, a new declarative AI agent that lets you create and refine SharePoint pages directly inside Microsoft 365 Copilot experiences like Teams, Outlook, and Word. This means you can generate structured content — meeting summaries, announcements, project updates — simply by describing what you want. Copilot handles the rest. A huge step forward for productivity and content automation in Microsoft 365. In my latest video, I break down: ✨ What the SharePoint Page Agent is ✨ How it works inside Copilot ✨ Rollout timelines ✨ Admin controls + compliance insights ✨ Why this matters for organizations and end users 📺 Watch the full breakdown here: https://youtu.be/dG_mi63z_qM If you’re exploring Copilot, SharePoint, or automation in M365, this update is worth your attention. Let me know your thoughts in the comments — will you enable this in your tenant? #Microsoft365 #Copilot #SharePoint #AI #Productivity #GiulianoDeLucaDocument libraries added programmatically as tabs to Shared Channels are not visible
With the recent Teams UX updates, any document libraries added programmatically to Shared Channels no longer appear in the Teams interface even though they do show up when queried through PowerShell. Following the guidance in https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/teams-configuring-builtin-tabs%22https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/teams-configuring-builtin-tabs%22https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/teams-configuring-builtin-tabs%22https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/teams-configuring-builtin-tabs%22as well as the approaches I outlined in my blog post https://reshmeeauckloo.com/posts/powershell-teams-add-documentlibrary-as-tab/%22https://reshmeeauckloo.com/posts/powershell-teams-add-documentlibrary-as-tab/%22 using Microsoft Graph or PnP PowerShell, the tabs still fail to surface in the new Teams experience. The behaviour is inconsistent: The same tab‑creation methods work perfectly in standard channels. They also work for users who haven’t yet received the new Teams UX. And if the document libraries are added manually, they appear as expected in shared channels. At the moment, I’m trying to determine whether there is a supported way to add document library tabs to shared channels programmatically so that they remain visible in the new Teams interface. Any insights or confirmed workarounds would be appreciated.
