    REVISED: Regarding the Wiki Libraries in SharePoint, the wiki pages will remain on SharePoint. However, the Wiki Page and App are not available in January 2024. 

    I created a video on exporting the Wiki libraries content to a zip file and opening the pages into a Word file as a BACKUP. It will be available later this week. I will update this post with the link when it is available.

     

    Stay tuned.

      Thank you so much for this! Here is the one thing I can't figure out...any help would be greatly appreciated.

      • My problem is that the yellow banner to export to OneNote only appears when I am using Public Preview (EA). We don't allow public preview for most of our users so they cannot perform the export operation
      • Also, I recall hearing that as it stands right now, users shouldn't be able to create NEW wiki tabs. However, even if I'm on public preview, I can STILL create new wiki tabs.
        • Yes, I get the warning but I can still create new wiki tabs in the standard version of Teams
      • I am version 1.6.00.8767

        Hi Michael,
        same here even in Europe in (I guess) most of the regular tenants; with only admin access to PP.
        I think we need to wait till the newer version than that from March 29th comes to us. I think that the PP ist not the best reference and in normal mode the app button will disappear next to the convertion...as u expect correctly.
        Happy to hear from around the world in which version or which context next to PP (EA) the phase 1 really did start.
        Wondering why MC496248 is not updated somehow.

        Regards from GER
