Sharing Links and Move Operations
I've got the following scenario: User has Contribute access in 2 sites and can move most files between them but the operation was failing on one. After a bit of investigation I've managed to replica...
Euan Eddie Have you checked this particular file so that someone, in connection with the sharing, has not set unique rights on it and is set to Read?
The issue appears to be that even after a sharing link has been deleted, there are two pieces of metadata (SharedWithDetails and SharedWithUsers) that remain attached to the file. Contribute access does not appear to be enough to carry this metadata over with the Move operation for some reason, but the values can be removed through PowerShell/REST.
In my case, I'm moving files using Power Automate so I can make an http request to remove the values and allow the file to then be moved.
