Hello, I created a new content type for my site, everything works well, however I'm unable to change it's template url (Advanced settings -> use existing model). This is the error that appears once I hit the save button: This roughly translates to: "Unable to update advanced settings. A Web-type file cannot be attached as a template." Now this is strange because in the past I could do this without any issue. Has something changed in the template system, or could it possibly be a bug? Thanks in advance16Views0likes2CommentsNews/page publishing process changes
We've had a workflow in place so that when people create news articles, it runs through a powerautomate workflow first. The process would be : Create news item, populate content Click "Submit for approval" in the top right. Side panel opens to tick some boxes (to create tags) User clicks "Publish", the workflow is processed A few minutes later it appears on some other pages which have a webpart configured to display this news. However in recent months, Microsoft seemed to have required all news/pages to have the "Save and close" button in the top left to be clicked first. I'm guessing this is related to the default check in/out workflow that sharepoint uses. What this has resulted in is much confusion, as the two processes work totally independently, and users dont know that they have to click "Save and close" first before then clicking the "Submit for approval" button to kick off the workflow. Has anyone else seen this? Can the "save and close" function be incorporated into the flow itself? The workflow is used to create managed metadata for the article, so that different categories of news can be displayed on different pages. This is not particularly relevant though to this issue i dont think.12Views0likes1CommentSearch results, document link goes to Page Not Found
When searching the site for a document (which is there), the link under the file goes to a Page Not Found. If I go to that URL, I see the file, but the link in the search results seems to be broken. A couple of things I am thinking could be the issue, so wanting to verify or if it is something else: Document library has 50,313 items File name could be too long (which includes the folder paths). I've re-indexed the library and will check if that helps.17Views0likes1CommentBest practices to work on files between Teams
Hi, I am working on the migration of my on-premises data to SharePoint online. My teams are set up, each team corresponds to a M365 group: HR, Accounting, Management, Employment Service, etc. Each employee will be part of one or more teams. Each team has a document library, and only team members will have access to the document library. The question is as follows: what is the best practice for working on files betwwen Teams? Example: the HR team has a folder in its document library named Recruitment. The assistant managers are not part of the HR team but need access to a subfolder of this Recruitment folder. I see 3 options: i break the inheritance in the document library and set specific rights for the assistant managers. I share the subfolder using a direct link, SharePoint sharing function. I create a second document library for the human resources team where all the files that will be shared with the other teams will be located For options 1 and 2, the "business logic" for the HR team is respected, meaning that all files in the Recruitment folder are located in the same place. However, I have no visibility on shared folders. At a minimum, we can play with folder colors to quickly identify shared folders, but at the scale of the organization, this seems risky to me. For option 3, the visibility of shared folders with the other Teams is quick and easy, but the files in the Recruitment folder are then found in 2 document libraries, which is not intuitive for the HR team. Could you please tell me what the good practices are? Are there any other options?40Views0likes1CommentAccessing Teams Private Channels Files in SharePoint
Is there an issue currently with accessing Teams Private Channel files in SharePoint? I have looked but cannot find anything. Recently our users that used to access Teams Private channel files within SharePoint (by going to the sharepoint site and Documents and then In Channels) have noticed that when they click a folder it doesn't take them into a file list, it just does nothing. If they then press F5 to refresh it will usually take them into the list of files. Accessing the files with Teams is fine still, only an issue if you use SharePoint. I've tried this on a few other sites within our Tennant and it happens on our other sites too.62Views1like2CommentsList content being shown instead of list item details
Hi. In a SharePoint list, when I click the content of a LookUp field, instead of showing this item's details, SharePoint takes me to the full content of the list the item belongs to. Does anyone know why this is happening? Thank you in advance.82Views0likes2CommentsEdit' rights tries editing a document from a different device or browser it is grayed out
Hello Please i need your help on this issue. When a user with confirmed 'Edit' rights tries editing a document from a different device or browser it is grayed out using Edge browser as usually use Chrome. They are logged in to their Microsoft account and accessing the file to be edited in SharePoint. They are trying to edit the file in the browser as they only have an E1 license. The users are in the Customer Success SharePoint group and they are Members with Edit rights. I dont think the document library have the unique permissions that override site-level permissions? Here is the screenshot of the item-level permissions on individual documents or folders? I believe the group assigned at the site level or only at the document library level? The affected user can create or edit a new document in the same library.3Views0likes0CommentsSharePoint Online List: Filtered List View Not Refreshing After Change
Before recently, any time a change was made to a list row column that a view filter was based on, the items in view would automatically refresh to show the changes. Now the list view doesn't update unless the user refreshes the page in their browser. This is a consistent issue across all lists in the tenant. Our organization has SharePoint lists with a 'Status' column that impacts what items are shown in a view and its hurting productivity when these views aren't updating with new items unless the page is manually refreshed. Is there a new setting that is impacting the ability for filtered views to auto-refresh?63Views1like2CommentsRefinableStrings managed properties are assigned to crawl properties only at the site level
I accessed the managed properties at a site level scope inside SharePoint online, and I found some refinable strings assign to crawl properties, but when I accessed the same refinable strings at the tenant level i found that those managed properties do not have crawl properties assign to them, here is a example for RefinableString06:- Site level Tenant Level Also the confusing issue is that inside the UI the ability to assign crawl properties to those managed properties are disabled on the site level, so how those got assigned?39Views0likes3CommentsSharepoint no sync for userdata
