Document Content Type Template in Modern Document Library
Hello,
I can't seem to find a solution to the following problem:
When attempting to create a custom (document) content type and uploading a custom document template, I run into an Access Denied prompt. I'm working in an O365 group site in a modern document library and am following these http://www.kalmstrom.com/Tips/SharePoint-Online-Course/Content-Types-Intro.htm. According to the instructions, there is a setting in the administrator panel related to allowing custom scripting that needs to be turned on. However, custom scripting is already turned on in my environment and I continue to run into the error/prompt.
Does anyone know a workaround/solution to this?
Thanks,
- Kurt

I have had a call with a support engineer from Microsoft and have the solution for this issue.
The way it works now is as designed. A lot of the options for site customizations are default not available in Connected Modern Team Sites/Office 365 Groups sites. The setting in the SharePoint admin center do not affect the Office 365 Groups Sites. Only the site collection that are shown in the list in the SharePoint admin center. To be able to use specific settings in the Office 365 Groups Sites, for example changing the advanced settings of custom content types, you have to connect to the site collection and turn the feature using PowerShell.
You can read here how to do that: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Turn-scripting-capabilities-on-or-off-1f2c515f-5d7e-448a-9fd7-835da935584f?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US

I have the same issue. I have looked for a work around, but haven't found it yet. A support call seams the only option.
- Are you seeing or no the Content Types gallery access in the site settings group?

Juan - ...Just following up...any idea if there is an answer to my original question; I just need to decide soon whether to continue to pursue my current road or try carving out a different path.
Thanks,

- Well, I see you have access to the Content Type gallery so you should be able to create your custom content types from there and in the case of Document Content Types, add a template to them with no access denied errors. If you are having these errors, I suggest to open a support ticket because in my opinion those errors are not correct
