"Publish" menu item missing in Library

Hi,

I have several document libraries set up the same way that both have related Power Automate Approval flows.

When uploaded files are "Draft" then publishing then sets them to "Pending" starting the flow.

All libraries except one have the menu option More > Publish but one has "Publish" missing but has "Submit for Approval" - in this Library I need to click Check Out - Check In (Major Version) to move the document to Pending.

How do I get "Publish" back in this menu?

Thanks,

Julian

    Do you have admin (full control) access on both the SharePoint document libraries?

     

    It might be due the difference in permissions on both the libraries, check that once.

        Seems like an issue with modern experience only. So, try raising a support ticket with Microsoft directly: Get M365 Support - Online Support
