How to copy Teams Wiki Pages - Answered
Sorry if this is not the correct way / place to post. Hopefully my weekends spent figuring this out can save someone out there a bit of pain. There's most likely an easier way to do this and it could be automated with PowerAutomate, but want to get this out sooner than later. Let's cut to the point, there currently is not a UI way within MS Teams to copy Wiki content from anywhere to anywhere. This looks to be on the MS backlog for a while now, but there is a surprisingly simple answer. What you will need: MS Teams with a Wiki you want to move. SharePoint Designer (usually 2013 sp1) Time Step 1. Open your team and head to the SharePoint site connected to the team Step 2. Copy the URL and open the connected site in SharePoint Designer Step 3. Open "All Files" and select "Lists" Step 4. Select the list containing "_wiki" at the end and click the "Preview in Browser" Step 5. Create a custom view of the Wiki list with all Wiki columns included Step 6. Do steps 1-5 on the target location you are looking to move the Wiki content to Step 7. Edit both locations in grid view. Copy all of the Page & Section titled content you want to copy. (My screen shot doesn't include wikiUser, but this should be copied also) Step 8. "Add new item" in the target list, then paste the data. Step 9. - KEY STEP You need to align the data. Please refer to screenshot below. The SharePoint ID that is assigned is used to match up the pages and sections. wikiPageId = SharePoint ID for Page wikiOrder = SharePoint ID for Sections you want the pages to fall under wikiCanvisId = The wiki number in order of wikis created There will also be wikiOrder for the main wiki order at the top of the list. You don't need to modify this since Teams will take care of the rest. Step 10. Refresh the wiki in Teams and review. If it's not displaying, run through the steps again and make sure no one is trying to update the wiki while you are copying. Hope this helps!
How do I create a Sharepoint glossary without using an app?
Hello everyone, Me again! I'm wondering if you can give me some advice about to create a glossary in SharePoint. The topic my SharePoint is about is quite complicated and I want an easily searchable glossary of terms. Unfortunately our IT department won't let me download the free app that I've seen suggested without applying for them to look at it, test it etc. This process is likely to take several months. Because of the length of time and with no guarantee of being able to have it at the end of it, I really need to create the glossary from scratch. Ideally I'm looking for a navigation bar with the letters of the alphabet and then being able to click on the letter to bring up all terms starting with that letter. Does anyone know a simple way of doing this? Thanks in advance as always, Amber
Setting up a wiki same as Confluence
Good afternoon, I'm trying to re-create all of our tech documents in sharepoint so we can centralise to office 365. I've tried many different way but I think the only way maybe a news style site, but then I have the issue of navigation so have looked into metadata navigation. But none of this seem to do something confluence makes so easy. What would you recommend? Many Thanks Mark
Wiki in teams not working
Hi - Anyone ever have an issue where your Wiki content is not showing up and not editable? I see each of the sections, but it won't allow me to click on any of them and nothing is editable. Interestingly enough, I can see the content on my Teams App on my iPhone, but can't edit it. Including screensheet so you can see the view I see. Thanks!
