Hi, I have set up three Organization Asset Libraries on the same SharePoint site using the `Set-SPOOrgAssetsLibrary` PowerShell cmdlet. All three are image libraries, each intended for a different language version of our company assets. When I go to PowerPoint → Insert → Pictures → Brand Images, I can see a dropdown that allows me to switch between the libraries. However, regardless of which library I select, all images from all three libraries are displayed at the same time. My questions: 1. Is this expected behavior (by design), or is it a bug? 2. If by design — what is the actual purpose of the library switcher dropdown if it doesn't filter the content? Any insight or official documentation reference would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!7Views0likes0Commentssharepoint admin option to create team site without 365 group missing
Hi, in the admin center, when I want to create a new Team site without 365 group, I see the "Browse more sites" command, as shown in this Microsoft Learn page. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/sharepoint/create-site-collection But a client of mine, who saw that very same screen two weeks ago now says the "Browse more sites" command is no longer showing for him. What gives? Is anyone aware of any changes that are being rolled out? Or is there a permission or setting that could have been en-/dis-abled to allow non-365 group team sites to be created? Any insights welcome.Solved36Views0likes1CommentClassic outlook - Teams add-in not loading
We recently had a partner experience an issue that is causing the teams add-in feature to not load properly in classic outlook when creating a new meeting. For some background info, we are using a Virtual environment within remote desktop running windows 11. Our servers are provided by AWS. The issue only began as recently as December, as far as we can ascertain with the customers information. I have noticed this issue occurs with numerous partners but is inconsistent, as some load and others do not. I followed troubleshooting steps such as an uninstall/reinstall, verifying the load behavior in the registry was set to 3, and tried to re-register the related teams.addinLoader.dll. A colleague did implement a script to the environment task scheduler that will run every time outlook is launched to re-install that add-in as a break fix, but this still requires closing outlook and reloading it to work. I was curious if anyone else had encountered this within remote desktop with classic outlook, and if they had any success in fixing it. The easiest thing, obviously, is moving over to new outlook since teams' integration is native, but we have some that prefer classic. Though, with it being retired in 2029 it may be worth starting the move away while in a remote environment.2Views0likes0CommentsMicrosoft Project Service Core Jan 2026 Update locked Plans table
We recently noted the Microsoft Project Service Core was updated to 1.0.161.1772: This update has locked our Plans table, no changes are allowed to the forms and creating new columns is greyed out: We cannot make use of Planner in our model driven app (Planner Premium, non-default environment). After a new Plan is created, the user receives this message when opening the Plan: Two days ago we were in this version 1.0.160.2874): and everything was working as expected. Any guidance would be much appreciated as we are not sure if this is a permanent lock or once the update cycle is completed we will be able to go back to edit Plan forms and columns. Thank you in advance1.2KViews8likes11CommentsStudent Behaviour Tracker
This is a very cheeky request for help. Now approaching 70 I've forgotten most of what I knew about Excel. I'm a Chair of Governors at an 11-16 school. I receive notifications about pupils who have been suspended (also known as fixed term exclusion). Roughly I have about 200 individual suspensions over 1 year. I want to record and analyse these. The information to record is Name: Last and First (about 30-40 students) Reason for exclusion (usually 1 or possibly 2 out of about 8 categories) Length of exclusion 1 - 15 days Flags e.g. SEND; PP, Year group: 7, 8 , 9 10, 11 Date As many of the students are repeat offenders I'd like to set the spreadsheet up so by either by typing the name or through an editable drop down list the name appears once and then the reason for the suspension and date is entered (as opposed to multiple entries appearing on the same page). I'd then like the spreadsheet to report, using an editable date range: By pupil name; the number of suspensions; total number of days and total number of days for each category of exclusion By suspension category: number of suspensions; total number of days for each category By flag: number of suspensions; total number of days for each category Year group: 7, 8 , 9 10, 11: number of suspensions; total number of days for each category I've looked at some cheap packages e.g. at Etsy but I cant see anything that does this. There are commercial packages, intended for whole school, but cost several hundred - thousand plus, pounds. Thanks in advance if you are interested and my apologies to you if you feel this is an inappropriate request.

OMG- could they f up sharepoint any more. It used to be such a powerful tool. It is harder than ever now. So- embed a lits in a page with a list part. I am showing controls and on default view-no search. there is now also NO FILTER PART so i go to github patterns and practices to download. Butttttt, I can't upload because while I am global admin, I am not sharepoint admin and cannot change my permissions. Create second admin account with all permissions. Tr to update my normal account permissions, and it says "you do not have permission to save." SO- do you know any other way to get a search of a list on a page? And - any thoughts on my permissions hell?17Views0likes0CommentsIs it possible to add a Power Automate button to Form view
Hello! Is it possible to add a Power Automate button from the list view in a SharePoint list to the Form view? I was hoping that when a line item is open to view, we may be able to add this button onto the Form view as well somehow? Even just as a hyperlink and not a button? Just something clickable.46Views0likes2CommentsOrganizational Account authentication problem
I have encountered a new authentication problem using an organizational account with Get Data > From Web. The data source is Dynamics 365 CE on-premises (https://ce.xxx.com/api.data/v9.1), authenticating through ADFS with MFA. This has been working without any issues until recently. When I attempt to refresh the query, I get an ADFS pop-up window for username and password, as expected. However, the window then closes without the expected MFA prompt. The "Access Web content" window does say "You are currently signed in," but does not query successfully, instead displaying the error "We couldn't authenticate with the credentials provided. Please try again." The most distinctive symptom, is that clicking the "Sign in as different user" button does not work. It just quickly opens and closes an empty window, instead of the expected ADFS username/password page. In Power BI Desktop everything works. The connection and query are successful, and the "Sign in as different user" button successfully displays both the initial ADFS username/password window and the subsequent MFA dialog.
