Custom Formatter for Read-Only Fields conditional based on other columns
Hello! Does anyone know if it's possible with the fieldsettings, readonly formatting, to make it conditional based on a Person field? It's a multi people field if that makes a difference? I ideally want to make certain fields read only based on who is viewing it (without having to use a Power App customised form!). This is what I want (but I know the syntax is likely all wrong!) but not sure if it's possible to use an IF statement with boolean statements? { "sections": [ {} ], "fieldsettings": [ { "name": "Comments", "readonly": "=if([$People.email] == me, false, true)" } ] }
SharePoint Permissions Management
Over the last 3 years of managing permissions across a suite of sites, I have uncovered more new issues with the way SharePoint permissioning is designed at every turn. A few examples, before the question: If I "Share" a file or folder somewhere on the site (breaking permissions inheritance), it is very inconvenient to find it again. If I "copy link" in this one particular way, permissions inheritance is broken. When looking at site-level permissions, I see site-level permissions groups, but there could be hundreds of other users who have been added to my site(s) without my knowing. If I want to reset permissions in an area (set of folders or library), I have to do it file-by-file or folder-by folder. If I want to get an excel snapshot of - anything really - IT has to pull it and it takes a couple days. Not to mention the permissions interface is incredibly clunky. All-in-all, there seem to be a million ways to break permissions inheritance, creating an access tracking and security nightmare. AND there's no easy way to truly see and understand who has access to what or what is broken, without spending hours with IT to pull a bunch of narrow-visibility reports. So my question is: what is the best way to navigate full permissions visibility? Am I doing something wrong? Is anyone else experiencing these issues? We have resorted to having a very strict "no outsides besides a few exceptions" policy and only managing permissions at the site-level, which really hampers on the collaboration benefits that SharePoint is trying to enable. It is also very administratively intensive. One of the benefits to SharePoint is that users don't really need to understand how it works to use it, but that's becoming less and less true with the increasing lack of security we feel in the platform.
Sharepoint Site News Links not populating like before
Hello, everyone! Has anyone else had an issues within SharePoint and posting news links? Previously, on our SharePoint site we would add news links from sources and the article title, image, and description would autopopulate and then allow users to go click the link to that article. However, since November, SharePoint does not do this anymore and is not pulling in the information. Any assistance would be appreciated.
SharePoint security broken between Microsoft 365 group and SharePoint group
Hi, Users are giving Member privilege through Teams, which gave them Member privilege in the Member SharePoint group. All good for 99% of the company. PROBLEM : I have 4 users without access to the SharePoint by this method. Security is not broken between Microsoft 365 Group and SharePoint group and is working fine for everybody else. Strangely, I saw that these 4 users are members of more than 1500+ Microsoft 365 Group, since they have been in the business for a long time and touch many projects here). I heard the limit is 7000 but they still have problem. Using the "Check permission", I got "None" for these people, but "Edit - Given through the XYZ Member group" for every other people in the Microsoft 365 Group. Any advice ? Thanks !

I'm interested in keeping a site collection that is connected to an Office 365 group, but I want to delete the group and "disconnect" it from the site (basically the opposite of what is possible when you "groupify" a team site). Does anyone know if this is a PowerShell command?
Guest user | recent change in the authentication method
Hi, due to the recent change MC1243549 - retirement of OTP for guest users in SharePoint/OneDrive, we are having a big impact with external collaboration. The external users who do not have company-managed devices and are reluctant to install work-related software or authentication applications on their personal devices are unable to meet the new access requirements, this is significantly impacting business activities. Any suggestion on this topic will be helpful. Do any of you have a similar issue? Thanks!Dynamic Mandatory Fields

"labels" in the left navigation pane
Hi, Can anyone advise me if it is possible to add labels in bulk to libraries? What I am asking badly is....I have over a hundred libraries on a site and they need labels adding to them so they are "grouped" in categories. Some of the labels need applying to several libraries. I have been doing smaller sites manually but the bigger ones will be very tedious and time consuming. I hope that makes sense?Recycle Bin and Site Content Hidden for Site Members and Site Visitors
