Hiding the SharePoint App Bar when embedding

Mike Hatheway — Tue, 16 Mar 2021 17:34:15 GMT

Does anyone know if you can hide the new SharePoint App bar (global nav) with a URL query param when embedding?

I've tried:

env=Embedded

and

env=WebViewList

which work in some instances, but not everywhere (e.g., List forms like newform.aspx, and most _layout pages I have checked).

Example: [tenant].sharepoint.com/_layouts/15/viewlsts.aspx?view=14&env=Embedded

That gets rid of alomost everything except the App bar.

What do you use Microsoft Graph for?

Luise Freese — Thu, 04 Mar 2021 14:34:33 GMT

I am curious again - how do you Microsoft Graph? What did you build with it?

If you need some ideas, head over to our blog where you can find some cool articles

To me, it's almost the answer to everything, whenever I ask myself 'How can I build this?'

What did you automate last week?

Luise Freese — Wed, 24 Feb 2021 19:03:28 GMT

Again, I am super curious - and a big fan of automation! What did you automate? And which tools did you use? Dare to share?

What did you build last week?

Luise Freese — Wed, 17 Feb 2021 10:04:11 GMT

I am super curious!

What did you build last week in Microsoft 365? Which problem did you solve? Where did you get stuck? What did you use? Want to share something?

Please reply below- don't be shy =)

Does SharePoint Online Cache members of Azure AD Groups

Russell Gove — Tue, 09 Feb 2021 18:47:37 GMT

Hi, and thanks for starting this forum!

We have an azure AD security group called ‘PowerApps-GCC-AM Control Group’ (ID is c2e5e562-3851-4417-a743-8b71fc43ecb6) .

The AD Group has directly been given READ permission to a SharePoint Online list called Global Complaints Webform.

A user (some.user@tenant.onmicrosoft.com) was in the AD Group previously but has been removed from the group (over a day ago).

When I check the users permission on the list SharePoint still thinks the user is in that group:

If the user browses to the list he can view the content of the list.

So it seems that SharePoint is caching the members of the AD Group somewhere.

Does anyone have any idea how to resolve this issue, or how this caching is done?

Phone Call Link in SharePoint View/Column Formatting

Mike Hatheway — Tue, 09 Feb 2021 17:12:33 GMT

Does anyone know of a way (or a workaround) to get tel:123-456-7890 links working in view/column formatting?

This would be very helpful for showing contact links with "click to call" on mobile.

It already works for "mailto" links, but "tel" links are not working.

What is the M365 PnP Community?

Luise Freese — Wed, 17 Feb 2021 15:23:00 GMT

Intro

The Microsoft 365 PnP Community is the virtual home for everyone who wants to extend Microsoft 365 beyond the standard. We want to share knowledge, learn from each other and achieve more together.

This hub will be a part of the Microsoft 365 Patterns and Practices community and will complement our existing initiatives under the PnP umbrella, such as our open-source projects and Community Docs, where we explain how the different features of Microsoft 365 work and offer guidance on how to use them.

Mission:

Our mission is to create a single inclusive and welcoming place for everyone who wants to build on Microsoft 365.

Goals:

Drop labels

We do not want to distinguish between so-called developers and citizen developers or spend much energy putting people into boxes. We want to provide guidance, knowledge, and reusable patterns and practices for everyone who wants to build on top of Microsoft 365, regardless of their profession, role, technical background, approach, or skill level. By living our Sharing is Caring mission, everyone will benefit.

One Community

Having one community as a virtual home for everyone who wants to extend Microsoft 365 will break down information silos and broaden everyone’s horizon, which will lead to better outcomes and more connected solutions. Sharing ideas across products using no code, low-code, and coded solutions in one single place will bring our communities closer together.

Lower entry barriers

We want to let our community grow and get new people involved, so we want to also cater to people who are not in that community right now and lower entry barriers. Helping everyone getting started rather than gatekeeping is one of our primary goals.

Being inclusive

Appreciating people from all backgrounds and with different expertise will ensure inclusiveness and improve our ability to step outside of our comfort zones and respect diverse perspectives. Learning that there is no pecking order of power users, makers, and developers but that we will be most successful when we focus on a bettertogether approach will make a huge difference.

What can you expect in this community?

We learned that people build solutions that span multiple Microsoft products with varying degrees of complexity, and we shouldn’t compartmentalize communities. We like to bring people together by guiding and sharing knowledge and listening to understand people’s needs. Please expect blog posts, videos, and open discussion on all kinds of topics around building on Microsoft 365. We are here to help.

How can you get involved?

This community doesn’t have any entry barriers; it’s made for everyone who extends Microsoft 365, including no-code, low-code, or coded solutions.
