PageContext listItem.id Lag After Navigation in SPFx Web Part
Hi everyone, I'm running into an issue with an SPFx web part where this.context.pageContext.listItem.id appears to lag behind after navigating between pages using the SharePoint “Pages” tab (the left-hand nav on a SharePoint site, not a full browser reload). Here’s the behavior I’m seeing: I navigate to Page 1: listItem.id shows the correct ID for Page 1 I navigate to Page 2: listItem.id still shows the ID from Page 1 I navigate to Page 3: now it shows the ID for Page 2 This continues until I perform a full page refresh, which resets things correctly. It feels like there's a one-step delay in updating pageContext, possibly due to how SharePoint handles partial page loads or client-side routing. To try to work around this, I moved my logic from onInit() to render(), but the lag still exists intermittently. Has anyone else encountered this kind of lag with pageContext? Any guidance on best practices for detecting the current page reliably in SPFx when navigating within the SharePoint UI? Appreciate any insight — happy to share more details if helpful. Thanks!
Event Listeners Not Working After Translating SharePoint Page with SPFx Extension
Hello everyone, I'm developing a SharePoint Framework (SPFx) extension to translate SharePoint pages using a language viewer API. The extension includes a dropdown menu for language selection, and it successfully translates the page content based on the selected language. However, after the translation, all event listeners attached to elements on the page, such as the "Add New" functionality of the out-of-the-box (OOTB) list web part, stop working. Here are the steps I've taken so far: Reattached event listeners after applying translations. Despite these efforts, the issue persists. Has anyone encountered similar problems or have any suggestions on how to resolve this? Any insights or solutions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance for your help!
PnP SingleWebPartAppPage removing all page contents
I am trying to convert a SharePoint page into a single web part app page to display a PowerBi report in full screen. I have tried creating the page, converting to "article" layout, adding the embed (both the PBI specific and the generic embed) webpart then running the script to convert to a single webpart app page. When I run the script, it is converting the page but it is removing the embedded web part. Here is my code: $clientId = "XXX" $clientSecret = "XXX" $tenantId = "XXX" $scope = "https://graph.microsoft.com/.default" # Use Microsoft Graph default scope for app-only authentication Connect-PnPOnline -Url example.com -ClientId $clientId -Tenant $tenantId -Certificatepath "C:\Users\User\Example" -CertificatePassword (ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText "Example" -Force) if(Get-PnPConnection) { Set-PnPPage -Identity "Example.aspx" -LayoutType singleWebPartAppPage } else { Write-Host "Connection failed. Please check your credentials and try again." Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Display Issue opening files via Sharepoint "Open in App"
Hello MS Tech Community, We frequently work with CAD files/programs on SharePoint. Using SharePoint’s "Open in App" feature, we can open and edit CAD files directly in the desired CAD application. However, we have encountered the following issue: When we open CAD files via the "Open in App" feature, the user interface in several CAD programs is misaligned. Buttons appear disproportionately large, the drawing window is too small, and the entire display is distorted. However, when we open the same file through File Explorer (e.g., via OneDrive synchronization), the file is displayed correctly without any issues. Affected programs: Archicad, Cadwork, Rhino This issue has been occurring since we first started working with CAD files on SharePoint, approximately 3–4 months ago. It still persists, and we tested it again last week with the same result. My colleagues are experiencing the exact same issue. We’ve tried different devices and users. The support of the affected programs didn't have any solution, so we asume it's a sharepoint / onedrive issue. We also contacted the Microsoft Support. They told us to open a ticket in this community. We have some console logs of the file openig process. There are some differences when we open it in the local file System and via "Open in App" in Sharepoint. Does anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem or has experienced something similar? We would be grateful for any help or suggestions. Thank you in advance and best regards,
SPO connection via client id/secret
hi all, I am trying to get the SPO site name but when running locally I get this error: "Invalid RedirectURI was received. Not parseable into System.Uri class." I thought you can use client id/secret with proper api permission to connect to SPO with no issues... Below the code I use.

However, for some files—despite having the correct uniqueId, listId, and siteId and even when I can manually verify that the file exists—the request returns a 404 error. I need the detailed JSON response mainly to obtain the webUrl to download the file. My questions are: 1. Why might some files return a 404 even though their metadata appears correct? 2. What alternative approach (e.g., using a different endpoint) can I use to reliably obtain the full JSON details for these file attachments? Any insights or suggestions would be appreciated.How to use operators in URL filters?
Hi! I'm trying to use the Contains filter operator in my modern SharePoint list, and it's ignoring that parameter. I've tried using a greater-than operator with a numeric field, and it also ignores that. https://xxxxxxx.com/sites/xxxxxxx/Lists/xxxxxxx/xxxxxx.aspx?FilterField1=status&FilterOp1=Contains&FilterValue1&pend&FilterType1=Text I want it to return all results that contain "pend" in the status column. How should I use it? I can't use the view configuration because the filtering is meant to be dynamic. The user, using an SPFx ListViewCommandSet extension, has a button that allows them to filter with operators. We're really stuck on this. Thanks!
