Sharepoint online copy to/move to issues
milosha I hope Microsoft reads this. You need to fix SharePoint. It is horrible and nothing is setup and forget, it is a constant struggle.
- If you COPY data, you lose metadata and version history
- If you sync data to OneDrive and upload that way, you lose metadata and version history
- If you MOVE data from one site to another, it fails/unreliable and gets stuck in progress
- There is NO SEARCH on recycle bin because MS doesn't want to index it.
I know Fortune 100 companies that love SharePoint cause they have the staff to sit around and only do SharePoint, but for us smaller companies SharePoint is a major resource HOG and very intensive on our team. I suggest looking at cleaning this up and making SharePoint a better solution.
