Modern Document Library Webpart - view not working

We seem to have a problem that has appeared this week where document library webparts on modern pages don't filter the documents based on the view that is specified in the webpart.

All looks ok when adding the webpart, but as soon as the page is published or refreshed the webpart ignores the view and displays all the documents (clicking "see all" and going directly to the document library displays views correctly).

I'm certain that this was working ok last week - is anyone else seeing this problem?

    We have the same thing going on, but Microsoft says that they are working on this!

        We are also facing the same issue, could please let us know how did you fix this ?
  • I have a slight variant of this. The view is respected, but the underlying Name field (the actual document file name) is still shown regardless of whether it is in the view or not. This behaviour is consistent across multiple views i.e. the Name field shows in every view I have configured.

       Hi Scott,

      I'm having the same issue that you describe - did you ever find a solution?

        the issue on this thread should be solved. What is the symptom you are seeing ? 

  • Same here, but the View is applied when the user does NOT have contribute rights on the page... so it must be a bug somewhere

      I've had a remote session today with MS and she could reproduce the error on her own tenant also. She's checking with the Escalation team whether this is a known issue. Hopefully I'll hear something back from her shortly.
  • We are experiencing the exact same behaviour since yesterday.

    I started a ticket at MS, hopefully we'll have a solution quick.

     

    Weird thing is our Tenant Admin can see the correct page, but the site (collection) owner doesnt!
