How to - Bypass Stop Inherit Permissions for Sites with over 100.000 Items
Hello everyone, I would like to start by letting you know that this is my first guide that I am writing, so bear with me. I migrated a file server that we had running on-premises to SharePoint. After some time, I decided to restructure the permissions a bit and encountered a problem: I couldn't stop permission inheritance for a folder. The issue is related to the "view threshold limitation," which is set at 100,000 items in a Document Library. Microsoft Article: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office365/servicedescriptions/sharepoint-online-service-description/sharepoint-online-limits I tried several PowerShell scripts, but unfortunately, I couldn't manage to break the inheritance. I came across a workaround from Fromelard , but, at least in my case, it was time-consuming. I noticed that the limitation applied to each document library, not the entire site, and that gave me an idea. My solution: Create a new Document Library inside the same SharePoint site where you want to stop permission inheritance. You can name it whatever you like, let's say "Temporary." Warning: It's essential to create the new library within the same SharePoint site otherwise, this process will take a long time. Examine your Document Library to identify folders with a large number of items. Choose a few of them and move them to the newly created Document Library. Afterward, go back to the Library settings and check how many items are in the Library. If it still has over 100,000 items, repeat the second step until you have fewer than 100,000 items in your Library. Now that you have fewer than 100,000 items in that library, you can stop permission inheritance. Finally, go to the library you created in the beginning and move the folders back to their original place. After that you can delete the temporarly created library. Tip: Sometimes, you might encounter a visual bug where the folder appears to still be in the process of moving to the other library. You can test this by checking under Library settings if the item count has change after 1 Minute. If not then you can refresh the page and continue.Hint: Use Microsoft ToDo for private and business tasks with "business" Outlook
Hi, i came across the issue that a list that i shared with others to organize a wedding shows up in my business Outlook. As there are many tasks to do for a wedding it blows up my tasks bar. There is an uservoice about this LINK - but not so much voters. I found this workaround and want to share it: Go to Outlook - perform a right click on the bar above the Todos and select "View settings": h Then go to the tab Advanced and add the filter for "in folder" Select "does not contain" and enter the name (or a part) of your list - let the all start with "PTasks" then you only need one filter. (Don't know what happens if you rename afterwards though) and - bam - the tasks from your list is gone. best regards Stephan[FIXED] [WorkAround] for YouTube BUG effecting Edge insider Canary users - Version 80.0.315.0
It's a nasty bug coming from Chromium source and shall be fixed soon, But meanwhile, here is the workaround Simply change your browser user-agent to Internet-explorer (confirmed to be working) or any other compatible ones that suits you to do so, install an extension like this: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/user-agent-switcher-for-c/djflhoibgkdhkhhcedjiklpkjnoahfmg
