ColachoMendoza , yeah I am on the same version, it is syncing fine on my end just thought it may be the case for the quicker update/sync on the endpoints.

 

ColachoMendoza Also, have you re-formated the library ID as per above post suggestion? with clean WebURL?

Is anyone not seeing "Copy Library ID" after clicking "Sync" on a SPO document library? I have tried in Chrome, IE, and Edge, and in incognito/private mode in all 3 browsers. I have a ticket open, but the tech was also not sure why. 

 

Anyone else seen this behavior?

    jaketech9  I presume you are Main Admin for your tenant as well as the main admin for sharepoint?

     

    Also is this "Document Library" ? and have you tried viewing it in classic view?

      pgawronski Hey, thanks for the reply! 

       

      Yes to all of your questions, I am a Global Administrator and I am also a SharePoint Admin. I have tried in the classic experience as well with no luck. Do I need to be the Primary Admin on those sites as well?

        jaketech9 I am primary site admin for testing purposes and i have this option still  so you may want to try that, also look what Chris Shalda said above.

         

        But I agree Chris Shalda this is ridiculous that they are actually testing this feature on us.

      Please note, Microsoft support admitted that the output from the Copy Library ID button not having the proper tenantID in the string, which causes auto-mount to not work when using that specific output without changes, is a bug that they are now actively fixing. They indicated they will be fixing the output of the Copy Library ID to work as-is without modification for the auto-mount config. In the meantime, they suggested just swapping out your AAD Directory ID for the string after “TenantID=“ and before the next ‘&’.

      I’m glad there is at least a valid workaround for this, but still scratching my head as to how this auto-mount feature was released to GA when there is quite obviously an issue with how the documentation instructs you to configure it...
