Moving libraries across SharePoint sites
Hi Everybody,
I am using SharePoint online and would like to copy a library from one site to another. I have created an exact metadata in the new library; however, when I use "copy to" function to copy some of the files I will notice that only the data of some columns will be copied and not all columns. Through library settings, I made sure that each column in the new library has the exact same settings as that column in the source library. I still get metadata of some columns but not all. Any suggestion?
Thanks
Jason

Jason_shadmany you can copoy a library from one site to another with all columns using a flow in Power Automate.

RobElliott Thanks for your suggestion. I tried the attached flow but the same problem exists. Some columns are not copied over.
- Ahmed_Al-DhubaibiCopper ContributorHello Jason,
if you have experience with PowerShell (PnP-PowerShell), you can make a script to get the files, copy them and map the metadata at the same time into your target site. I hope I could help with this suggestion.
Cheers
