document library
3255 TopicsThe uploaded documents are not shown on page reload for document library web part
We observe a very strange behavior with all of document library web parts on all tenants where we tested. Problem Definition Newly added document disappears after page refresh. If you refresh second time the file appears. Steps to Reproduce 1. We have a document library web part with modern experiences. 2. A user uploads a document - the document is immediately visible in the UI. 3. The user reloads a page 4. The uploaded document disappears. You can use drag-n-drop upload, or upload button, it doesn't matter. Sometimes you need a few refreshes until file appears in the UI. It doesn't matter how many time you wait after the initial upload - for example you can upload a file, wait 5 minutes, then refresh - the file will disappear, then refresh again - it will appear. This is the video demonstrating the problem (uploaded on github): Video Expected Behavior: The recently uploaded document should not disappear after the page refresh. Additional Information: Browser: Chrome 149.0.7827.104 (Official Build) (64-bit) Anybody has the same problem?4Views0likes0CommentsAdd action buttons per row in the document library / List to minimize clicks
We would like to add action buttons against each item in the SharePoint document library (e.g., Open, Edit, Share, Copy Link) to reduce the number of clicks for end users. This will improve usability, especially for users on different screen resolutions who may have difficulty locating the appropriate commands in the toolbar or context menu.Solved87Views0likes3CommentsHow to filter "Managed Metadata" column in sharepoint using power automate
Hi Community, I need to fetch the files from my sharepoint lib where we have Textimonial field named "Department" with value = "Purchasing" using power automate flow. But since its a Managed metadata field, I cannot able to get the field value in the ouput of my "Get_files_Property" action. Please help on this part. Thanks!5Views0likes0CommentsList rules
Hi everyone, since the legacy list alerts have been retired and rules came in, users with read permissions are not able to create rules without leveraging the power automate service. in my opinion read inly users should be able to create alerts based on a separate role action. at the same time, alert related action are still active under permissions level options. is there anyone else trying to provide rule action to read only users and is so how did you proceed? Kind regards, George Stylianou11Views0likes0CommentsSharePoint: Direct Metadata Editing from Library View
Is it possible in SharePoint to allow users to update metadata directly from the document library view without requiring them to click on “Edit properties” or switch to “Edit in grid view,” essentially minimizing or eliminating additional clicks for making changes?Solved49Views0likes1CommentSharePoint Online - save as a site template
Hi, I have saved a SharePoint Online site as a template. I have selected all content. I have read that this includes the following: Lists, List views, Data views, Libraries, Content Types, Workflows, Data source connection, Custom forms, Custom actions, Master pages, Navigation, Site Pages. I have multiple libraries with document templates like this example. After importing the site all seems the same but the document templates do not open. It seems that these are now inactive. Has anyone else come across this? Is it a case that uploaded templates just do not copy across? I have also tried a migration software to copy the library across but the templates do no come with it.5.9KViews0likes10CommentsSharePoint Library Help Needed
I have a SharePoint Library where I would like to implement these requirements below and would appreciate your advise: Folders were created at the library level, which looks like the image below. I do not want people to be able to create any folders or upload documents or folders at the library level, but rather only when they open the folders. I have disabled folder creation and created a PowerApps form, so that users can only upload document, edit documents, view details of the documents when they open any of the folders., but I cannot seem to find the Power Apps form when I open any of the folders and try to upload a document or view a document or edit the document details. 2. I have a choice column called Fiscal Year which has options as = FY22, FY 23, FY24, FY25, FY26. By March 2026, I would like to create an automate flow which will auto create FY27 and remove FY22 from the choice, so that the choice column is always limited to only 5 years.75Views0likes3CommentsBulk link updates
First off, apologies if this is in the wrong community. All files are held in the same sharepoint library. So in the library there is an excel file which gets updated a couple of times a year and lets say 20 word fiiles containing roughly 5 links per file referencing 4 ranges in the excel file. These word documents are also updated several times a year. When either the excel documented if updated a new file if generated with a new name which replaces the old one and the old one is archived. The word documents are simply edited and renamed with the old one being archived. I'm looking for a way to update the links in the word documents to pick up the same ranges in the new spreadsheet. As it currently stands I need to manually update each link which is time consuming, prone to error and stupid :-) anyone come across this need and if so how did you solve it? thanks in advanceSolved113Views1like5CommentsSharePoint permission change notifications not working
Problem: Trying to get Microsoft Graph change notifications when permissions change on SharePoint/OneDrive drive items (sharing, inheritance breaks, access grants/revocations). Using Prefer: includesecuritywebhooks on subscription creation as documented subscription creates successfully, but the header appears to be silently ignored (notificationQueryOptions is always null in response, Preference-Applied header is always empty). What works: Regular content change notifications fire fine. What doesn't: Zero security notifications on any permission change. Subscription request: POST https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/subscriptions Prefer: includesecuritywebhooks { "changeType": "updated", "notificationUrl": "https://...", "resource": "drives/{driveId}/root", "expirationDateTime": "2026-06-12T00:00:00Z" } Permissions (all with admin consent): Files.Read.All, Files.ReadWrite.All, Sites.Read.All, Sites.FullControl.All, Directory.Read.All Already tried: Both v1.0 and /beta endpoints same result Every relevant permission combination But the official document says it should work: Link to documentation: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/onedrive/developer/rest-api/concepts/scan-guidance?view=odsp-graph-online#receiving-webhook-notifications-for-security-events Any working example or confirmation of current status would be extremely helpful. Happy to share more details or test specific configurations.36Views0likes0CommentsDocument Sets - Want Subfolders (not just files) to inherit metadata
Trying to get subfolders (the actual subfolder) in a document set to inherit metadata. We have files and files in subfolders inheriting correctly but currently subfolders in the set do not inherit data. We are using the metadata column for view filter between active/pending/completed job status. What happens is the subfolders don't show in the filtered view so you cant traverse the subfolder structure. Show flat structure is not suitable as its hundreds of files. The shared columns settings in library settings, says it syncs for all 'documents' in the set. This excludes folders. Have tried power automate, but it doesn't seem to work applying the metadata to a folder object. We need to able to change a document set from Active > Pending and all the metadata change. Any ideas on how we can get the subfolders in inherit (and update) the metadata of the document set. Thanks in advance.112Views1like3Comments
