Hello, we are currently going through the process of setting up managed metadata tags on our SharePoint Online systems. The requirement has been identified that any documents need to be tagged with some labels, and I would like to make it so that, when the user creates or uploads a document to the libraries in question, that there be a popup window or some other form of forced interaction for the user that will require them to set the tags that we are wanting to use. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated, cheers.4Views0likes0CommentsNEW! SharePoint Lists & Libraries: Default Approvers for Configure Approvals Explained
🚀 New SharePoint Feature Alert! Microsoft has just introduced a super useful capability in SharePoint Lists and Document Libraries: the option to set Default Approvers when configuring approval workflows. This small but powerful enhancement removes repetitive manual steps and makes approval automation more consistent across teams using SharePoint + Power Automate. In my latest YouTube video, I walk through how this feature works, how to set it up, and why it can significantly streamline your approval processes. 🎥 Watch the full breakdown here: https://youtu.be/Xxn-IrKVh6E 👍 If you find it useful, let me know in the comments! #SharePoint #Microsoft365 #PowerAutomate #Productivity #M365 #SharePointOnline #Automation #DigitalTransformation47Views1like0CommentsAdjust Context Menu Modern Document Library
Is there an option to adjust Context Menu for Modern Document Library. End Users prefer to have Version History and Checkout to be available on menu bar rather than click three dots to access those options. Please let me know.Solved6.6KViews0likes3CommentsSharePoint Library - Invisibile Metadata

SharePoint is not refreshing the file date but it is refreshing the versions and date properly within the “Version History” tab. Can you tell me what I can do on my end to fix? I tried to add screenshots but, the file upload did not work. My apologies.43Views0likes2CommentsDocument Library - Add "Navigation/Info Elements"
Hi All Is there any way to add web parts to a document library page? I have a requirement to put "instructions" above (or on the same page as) a document library. The only way I know to do this is to create a page and put the document library web part on it. This is not ideal. as it is not the full document library experience clicking the "see all" takes you to the document library, but this creates confusion for users in terms of navigation Another Option would be to "pin" a "how to use" document ... but this requires us to create and pin this document and is quite "ugly" I had hoped this would be part of the new library expereince https://supersimple365.com/sharepoint-document-libraries-are-getting-a-new-user-experience/46Views0likes1CommentQuantity of View Per Site
Hi, We are working on a sharepoint sites for a document repository. We are looking at having to create about 100 different views to allow the documents to be filtered and structured in a relevant way for users (using file meta data). I have found online advice that says a recommended limitation is to use no more than 50 views. Have people created more than 50 ? Why is the recommendation to only use 50 ? What issues are we going to run into ? Thanks41Views1like1CommentLabel Disposition Review Did Not Trigger
I am having an issue where Labels I created did not trigger a disposition review. I setup retention labels to trigger a disposition review after a period of time, published the labels, applied the labels to a set of documents, but I did not receive any email updates on the documents were past the disposition review. I verified these disposition review emails were supposed to go to my email, and also verified that they did not go to any other folder other then my inbox. I verified everything was applied correctly on the labels and documents. Also, I am not able to see the Disposition page under Data Governance. Has anyone had a similar issue, or have more information to help me?1.7KViews0likes2CommentsIntermittent failures when creating new libraries in modern SharePoint
Hi everyone, I’m seeing an issue in our modern SharePoint Online site collection where creating new document libraries has started failing. This site has worked normally for years, but over the past week, most library creation attempts haven't worked. 1) The page briefly flashes or glitches during the creation process. and 2) A non‑ending spinning wheel when I hit "create" or 3) Creation attempts return “Something's not right.” error page. The failures happen across all subsites, in multiple browsers, and I’m a Site Collection Administrator. No permission changes were made recently. Has anyone seen similar intermittent library creation failures in a modern site collection, or know what might cause this kind of inconsistent behavior? Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks!

With the recent Teams UX updates, any document libraries added programmatically to Shared Channels no longer appear in the Teams interface even though they do show up when queried through PowerShell. Following the guidance in https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/teams-configuring-builtin-tabs%22https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/teams-configuring-builtin-tabs%22https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/teams-configuring-builtin-tabs%22https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/teams-configuring-builtin-tabs%22as well as the approaches I outlined in my blog post https://reshmeeauckloo.com/posts/powershell-teams-add-documentlibrary-as-tab/%22https://reshmeeauckloo.com/posts/powershell-teams-add-documentlibrary-as-tab/%22 using Microsoft Graph or PnP PowerShell, the tabs still fail to surface in the new Teams experience. The behaviour is inconsistent: The same tab‑creation methods work perfectly in standard channels. They also work for users who haven’t yet received the new Teams UX. And if the document libraries are added manually, they appear as expected in shared channels. At the moment, I’m trying to determine whether there is a supported way to add document library tabs to shared channels programmatically so that they remain visible in the new Teams interface. Any insights or confirmed workarounds would be appreciated.58Views0likes0Comments
