Sharepoint metadata wiped when file has "visited" a different library
We have discovered a flaw in word and sharepoint handling of metadata. In our sharepoint library we have several metadata colums that we integrate into documents via content controls. The issue is that if a user moves one of these documents into her personal onedrive, the metadata gets wiped when it is put back in its original location. Anyone have a solution for avoiding this, except for telling users not to do this... jonasklhUsing Apply-PnPProvisioningTemplate to create a library with a different name than the template
I've been trying allsorts but unsuccssessful so far. Can i use Apply-PnPProvisioningTemplate to create a new list/library with a new and different name from the one in the template? I dont want to edit the template file. This is how i get the template: Get-PnPProvisioningTemplate -out $templatePath -Handlers Lists -ListsToExtract "IMS Documents" This is how i try to make the new one: Apply-PnPProvisioningTemplate -Path $templatePath -Parameters @{"ListInstance Title"="EMS"}Sync Sharepoint libray columns to library on different site
I have a documents workspace library, here i work on docs that eventually will be published to a public area. In my workspace i have many columns to handle document metadata, this metadata is used inside the documents as well. I need to be able to keep all the columns i have made in my original workspace library and synchronise them to the "published" library. Anyone have a good tip?dotx files - different behaviour mac and windows
Hello I have a sharepoint library with .dotx files in it. When i click on one of them on my mac, Word opens a new document based on that template. On my windows pc word opens the dotx file for editing. Please explain! And for the record, i would like for windows to open a new document as well.Copying word content into content controls in new word document
Case: I have several completed forms in word format. It basically a table that is filled in. Like so: In order to get the information from this form into sharepoint as metadata in a library i have added content controls to the template, that works well for new forms. Challenge is getting the old forms into sharepoint. Is there a good way to merge old docs with new template to populate the content controls? Alternatively, is there a way to ocr read the fields and populate sharepoint metadata?Challenge! Use external SQL database for Sharepoint metadata - External Data field not available.
Sharepoint Online: I have a Sharepoint document library. I have a project database (project number,project name, project manager etc.) this information needs to be tagged to multiple documents. I want to use the project number as a lookup field (site lookup doesnt work well...) Anyone have a suggestion on how to best achieve this?Sharing a sharepoint list with subsites for lookup fields
I have a projects list containing project number, project manager, customer, business line etc. This is the source for metadata lookup for other lists and libraries. Can i host this list on my top level site and share it with my subsites or even other sites?
