Issues with accessing SharePoint Files though Web Dev
Hello, I've got x2 users who are having issues when accessing files though SharePoint mapped WebDev links. When they open documents on the mapped drive, they get an instant alert which makes them...
Might I ask why are you mapping SPO Document Libraries using WebDav instead of using the OneDrive Sync Client? Or alternatively: why not open the files from SPO UI using the option to open with the Office desktop clients?
- I'm honestly not sure why, this is for a client and they had been setup on this before. I can only imagine that this was done before the "Next gen sync client". But I agree, the OneDrive sync client is far better.
For the moment I'd just wanted to see what I could do / if anything with the WebDav link as this is what 100+ users are using for SharePoint.
Side note, does Microsoft recommend against Connecting to SharePoint though WebDev?
