Hello, I am looking for a way to restrict sharing within all of my SharePoint online sites. I want users to be able to share ONLY with people that already have existing access within the organization. I don't want them to be able to share internally with users who do not have existing access to the files. Simultaneously, they still need the capability to share externally to new and existing guest users. Is this possible? How can I do this? I have run a powershell script to remove the option to "Share with anyone in organization" but I can't seem to get rid of the option to share with "people you choose". Thanks!22Views0likes1CommentDifferent columns for folders and subfolders on SharePoint
Hello, Please i need your help on this issue Here isthe summary of what we want to achieve: Weare facing an issue with customizing columns in SharePoint. We created a subfolder named "Project" and "Project Images" within your SharePoint library. In this subfolder,weadded a custom column called "Marina Test"with specific choices. However, this column is also appearing in the parent folder and throughout the entire library, which is not what we intended. So thereforeourgoal is to have the "Marina Test" column visible only in the specific subfolder and not in the parent folder or other parts of the library. Additionally,We want the flexibility to create different custom columns in other subfolders as needed. This customization should be accessible to all users with the current permissions.26Views0likes1Commentadding an AAD security group to site collection administrator using power automate
so im trying to do what the title says but i keep getting the error from the flow that the group cannot be found although it exists and i can find it connected to the sharepoint site here is the http request i have been trying : { "inputs": { "host": { "connectionName": "shared_sharepointonline", "operationId": "HttpRequest", "apiId": "/providers/Microsoft.PowerApps/apis/shared_sharepointonline" }, "parameters": { "dataset": "https://xxxtest.sharepoint.com/teams/@{body('Parse_JSON')?['groupAlias']}", "parameters/method": "POST", "parameters/uri": "_api/web/sitegroups/getbyname('Site Collection Administrators')/users", "parameters/headers": { "Accept": "application/json;odata=verbose", "Content-Type": "application/json" }, "parameters/body": "{\n \"LoginName\": \"i:0#.f|membership|THE_GROUP_NAME\"\n}\n" }, "authentication": "@parameters('$authentication')" }, "metadata": { "operationMetadataId": "new-operation-id" } } I presume im writing something wrong in the api request or in the body but i couldnt find any helpful resources that does exactly what im doing , the closest thing i found is this (adding a role permission which worked when i tried it and it could find the group , but i want it to add the group to the site collection admins not just give it a permission): https://ganeshsanapblogs.wordpress.com/2022/11/05/sharepoint-online-grant-permissions-to-azure-ad-security-group-using-power-automate-and-rest-api/Solved27Views0likes2CommentsPower Apps Plan error when trying to view SharePoint Online list item created in PowerAutomate
I have a SharePoint Online list where all items are created through a Flow in PowerAutomate. When a normal user wants to view the details of the item, he gets a "You need a Power Apps plan" error message. PowerApps are generally not made available to our normal users. However me as an administrator (and with a PowerApps plan of course) can see all the details normally: Things I have already tried: - Giving the user editing permission -> no change - Giving the user access to PowerApps -> user can see the details, but this solution is not preferred Why is SharePoint Online behaving in this way? Is there a way to make the details available to the normal user without having to grant them access to PowerApps? Is this error maybe connected to this recent change in SharePoint Online (MC757614)? Thanks in advance for any responses!Solved416Views0likes1Commentuser needs edit permission to load js files in Site Assets directory
We have a classical Sharepoint site whose form is custom built with content link in content editor webpart in a page. When the page loads, it needs to load the css, js files in Site Assets directory to render the page. Users were able to get the page loaded fully with read permission until last Sunday night. Now we have to give users edit permission to Site Assets to load page successfully. At console log, we can see with edit permission, all required files are loaded while with read permission, no log of required files but no error. Could someone advise what might happen to cause this? How can we remediate this? Thanks a lot in advance.8Views0likes0CommentsExternal Users Blocked from Downloading Files – Conditional Access Policy Stuck or Misbehaving?...
We recently updated and added several Conditional Access policies, including one that blocks downloading, printing, and syncing from unmanaged devices. This policy was initially tested with a small group of 2-3 users. However, we noticed that when employees share an external link, external recipients can log in but cannot download files. They see a yellow banner stating that "downloading, printing, or syncing is blocked etc." We have since disabled related Conditional Access policies and waited the required 24 hours for changes to take effect. Additionally, Microsoft Support has been involved for three days but has not yet resolved the issue. Any suggestions?

Hi, I'm hoping someone could shed some light on this as I'm a bit baffled as to why this is happening. We have an external user who was invited to 2 of our sites. She received the access invites via email and was able to log on and access the sites perfectly. A week after, her access seems to be not working. We removed the account from both sites and even deleted the guest account that was created. We re-invited her to the sites, it shows her user name on the groups within the site and she even got an email confirming the admin has accepted her request but she's still unable to access the site at all. It still says she has no permission but her account name is shown on the site. We're not too sure what else we could possibly do as deleting and re-inviting her is not working either. Thanks.Solved21KViews0likes12CommentsAccess to hidden files
Hello, I have an excel database that links to a sharepoint site via a number of macros. With the workbook attached to the site - I'd like to hide all of the various libraries from the users so they will just see the home screen - while obviously allowing the macros to still access and display the various files. Essentially I need to give them read access without being able to view the library from sharepoint. If anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate the feedback. Thanks, Anthony8Views0likes0Comments
