What is the plan for "modern" Document Sets?
- Its too early to put specifics on the roadmap - but we will update document sets. We are not being "classic Microsoft" here - there is a steady stream of requests for docsets (along with other parts of classic ECM) and I've never pretended otherwise. Fear is not part of the plan. I hope to be able to give roadmap updates at SPC or Ignite this year, if that helps.
I tried to replicate this by creating a new communications page and wasn't even able to select document sets from the term sets in a newly set up library. Maybe comms pages don't allow for document sets?
My doc lilbrary - with folders and document setsInside my doc. set.
Mine looks like that too ... but when I go into the Doc Set, its the old interface ... nothing really new here.
Normally when i create document sets in modern UI, the view changes to classic when you open a document set.
Now i get an 404-error when working with document sets. I can create a new one, add and edit the metadata but I can't open it. Then I get the 'Page not found'-error.
When I'm in the settings and want to change the welcome paga of the document set, I also get the 404-error. Somebody know how to resolve this issue? I'm thinking the problem is in the new site collection which has been created in the modern admin center. I had also to enable the feature for 'document set'. Is it possible that the problem is caused by that?
Frederik - I don't know if this will help you, but when I received 404 errors with Document Sets in modern sites, it was because I activated the feature from PowerShell instead of from Site Settings. I found that the only way to activate Document Sets in PowerShell is by first allowing the customized pages. I ran this first, then activated the feature:
Set-SPOSite -Identity $SiteUrl -DenyAddAndCustomizePages 0
For $SiteUrl, use your site's URL (https://yourcompanyname.sharepoint.com/sites/yoursite).
Hope that helps solve the problem for you.
- But the second screenshot is from inside the doc set. ( The doc. set creates a folder structure when it is created.) But I never get the old interface in this library. Thats my point.
