Export list of users with unique permissions
Hello community, The context: We have a document library with 30 000 items. We broke inheritance and set up special permissions for some of them. Now we have about 30 items with special permissions that can be listed in Sharepoint Online. See the picture below. What we want: We want to get list of user on each item now. How can we do that? The output should look like this item1 - user 1 item1 - user 2 item1 - user 3 item1 - group 1 item1 - group 2 item 2 - user 1 item 2 - user 5 ... The idea We will write powershell script But can we identify items with special permissions the same way Sharepoint does it in the picture? How? How to use the API correctly because we cannot list each item (30k) in Sharepoint for performace reasons right? Related topics maybe?

Automated In/Out Board in SharePoint 2013 with Outlook Presence
We have a need to create a departmental Staff automated In/Out Board listing all staff, capturing their presence from Outlook and displaying onto a SharePoint 2013 (on premise versus O365) page. To keep it simple we would like to display name and status (based upon Outlook presence). If we could capture information like "in a meeting" or "Busy" or "Away" or "On a call" that would be even better. Any advice or guidance would be most helpful...
Sharepoint List Column and Form setting issue.
Hello, I have two issues with one of our sharepoint list. - It seems the column names are not consistent across users. - The column field editor is not shared across users. Basically, I created a list which I then modified, including some field names. However some users still only see the original version of the field names. Columns seem correct, however they have the wrong names. Also in a similarly, I havec created conditions for fields to appear on the ITEM form and have reorganised the fields in a particular order, however when looking at the form on some users some fields are in the wrong order (I believe its usually the fields with the wrong names. I have already checked versioning is activated which it is not and permissions seem correct ( one of the users is also a list owner) The only difference I can see is that the language is not the same for everyone. But I don't see how that would impact it. The names don't use any french accents or symbols. any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Change in SharePoint File Selection Behaviour
Has anyone noticed this in the last week/s? Basically before, you used to be able to SELECT files without opening them. Now, 5-6 times out of ten, if I try to select a document or folder it opens instead. Like, even when i am clearly clicking the checkmark to the left of the file/folder, it will STILL OPEN in the browser, rather than just selecting. It's like the file open behaviour has gotten more sensitive or something? It's really frustrating because my users need to add metadata to documents by selecting them, and now they have to fight with SharePoint nearly every time.Not able to use "(" - opening bracket in SharePoint Online Webpart
I have an SPO site where I am creating multiple pages. Every single page prevents me from typing an opening/left parenthesis. I can type a closing parenthesis no problem. I've cleared my cache and restarted. It began recently - probably around the same time as the update where a closing parenthesis/quotation appears when you type an opening one.
Sharepoint site permissions issues - Visitors group users not granted access
Hey there, One of our colleague was wrongly given the "owner" role for a SP site. That person went to the advanced permissions settings panel and randomly deleted the site default "Visitors" group. Then of course every persons depending on that permissions level to visite the site received a "Denied access" error when trying to reach the site. What we saw was no more "visitors" group in the advanced permissions settings panel BUT; "visitors" group still appearing in the basic consol on the website (gear icon>site permissions) and enclosing users; when checking access to specific pages or content "visitors" group was missing. We then recreated a new "Visitors" group with "read only" classic permissions. Yet same issue "Denied access" and same observations made (see bullets list above). We did it again creating a very similar group called "Read-only". After several trials. we asked permissions to access the page directly from the error page "Denied access". User was then able to access the site. From there we checked the permissions status for that user, from that check we can see that this user is depending on the "Visitors" and "Read-only" groups... Yet we can't see that user withing these groups... Of course if we deleted the user from all users and add it in one of these two groups, it can't access the site. We read a lot on permissions lately but can't find anyone else experiencing this. Additional info: This site is part of a hub and is the only one affected All sites are configured the same way The only settings that changes was that deleted default "visitors" group on that specific website. (so it has to come from that) We won't be asking people to ask for permissions from the "Denied access" error page since it would not solve the original issue and we set up groups within Active Directory to easily manage users and their permissions across MS apps. Should anyone have a solution ;)... CheersAutomatically email supplier when their certificate expires
Good afternoon. I have set myself a challenge and really could do with some help. I have a list of suppliers like below. I have expiry dates set up, with a colour formatting to show any date past the current date. On the end of the row, there is an email address of the company contact. I want SharePoint to automatically email that person as soon as it turns red/expires. What is the simplest way of doing this? I have looked at Flows etc, and online on video tutorials, but some of the guides are old and out of date or very complex and I am a novice. Is anyone kindly, can give me a step-by-step guide on how to do this, as this would be just awesome and finally bring my company into the 21st century! Thanks in advance.Sharepoint Webpart Discussion
