News Web Part: Site Links do not render correctly when using multi site news.

When using the News web part in multi site mode (Select sites), the site link does not render a link to the news item's parent site. The link title is correct, but the link url always points to the home of the site that the news part is being hosted on.

 

I have tested this against 4-5 tenants and the behavior is the same.

 

It looks like the api endpoint for multi site news (/_api/v2.1/getMultiSiteNews) doesn't return the link in the data.

  • Earlier this week I checked a couple of tenants and this had started working on some, but not others. Today I checked and the remaining tenants were also working. Obviously a change has been rolled out this week to fix the issue.
