    I've run out of ideas. As this is working normally for other users, I would open a support ticket with MS

I'm having the same issue and this is one of the first things I've tried. Though the filter does apply, when the page is refreshed, the webpart goes back to showing all items ):

I found a workaround for this issue, using the embed webpart using the below worked for me.

 

<iframe src="https://[yoursite].sharepoint.com/sites/[site]/Shared%20Documents/Forms/Systemsprocesses.aspx?" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="100%"></iframe>

 

Just change the respective details for your document library.

    Hi Alan

     

    Thanks for this.

     

    To confirm, all I need to do is replace anything in square brackets with my own values and leave everything else ?

     

    Regards
