Upcoming change: Retirement of noise suppression capability for ODSP video
We're writing to inform you of an upcoming change to video playback features in OneDrive and SharePoint. What's changing: Starting July 1, 2026, the noise suppression feature for video playback on OneDrive and SharePoint will be retired. This feature, which reduces background noise during video playback, will no longer be available in the web playback experience. Based on usage data and our ongoing effort to streamline the video experience on OneDrive and SharePoint, we've made the decision to deprecate this capability. Please share your feedback through Noise Suppression Feature Survey so we can continue to improve the video experience on OneDrive and SharePoint. What this means for your content: Your video content is not affected. No original files will be modified or re-encoded – this change only impacts the playback experience. Noise suppression will no longer be available as a playback toggle option when viewing videos stored on OneDrive or SharePoint. No changes to other video and audio playback features – including playback speed controls, captions, and transcripts – remain available and are unaffected by this change. What administrators need to know: No admin action is required. The noise suppression option will be removed automatically after the retirement date. There are no tenant-level settings to manage for this change. Alternative options: If noise suppression is important to your workflow, please consider these alternatives: Pre-process your audio using a dedicated noise removal tool before uploading to OneDrive or SharePoint. Record in a quieter environment or use a directional microphone to minimize background noise at the source. We value your feedback: We understand this change may affect some of your workflows, and we want to hear from you. Please share your feedback through Noise Suppression Feature Survey so we can continue to improve the video experience on OneDrive and SharePoint. All other video playback capabilities on OneDrive and SharePoint remain fully available. We're committed to continuing to invest in features that help you get the most out of your video content.
SharePoint Library Help Needed
I have a SharePoint Library where I would like to implement these requirements below and would appreciate your advise: Folders were created at the library level, which looks like the image below. I do not want people to be able to create any folders or upload documents or folders at the library level, but rather only when they open the folders. I have disabled folder creation and created a PowerApps form, so that users can only upload document, edit documents, view details of the documents when they open any of the folders., but I cannot seem to find the Power Apps form when I open any of the folders and try to upload a document or view a document or edit the document details. 2. I have a choice column called Fiscal Year which has options as = FY22, FY 23, FY24, FY25, FY26. By March 2026, I would like to create an automate flow which will auto create FY27 and remove FY22 from the choice, so that the choice column is always limited to only 5 years.
SharePoint permission change notifications not working
Problem: Trying to get Microsoft Graph change notifications when permissions change on SharePoint/OneDrive drive items (sharing, inheritance breaks, access grants/revocations). Using Prefer: includesecuritywebhooks on subscription creation as documented subscription creates successfully, but the header appears to be silently ignored (notificationQueryOptions is always null in response, Preference-Applied header is always empty). What works: Regular content change notifications fire fine. What doesn't: Zero security notifications on any permission change. Subscription request: POST https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/subscriptions Prefer: includesecuritywebhooks { "changeType": "updated", "notificationUrl": "https://...", "resource": "drives/{driveId}/root", "expirationDateTime": "2026-06-12T00:00:00Z" } Permissions (all with admin consent): Files.Read.All, Files.ReadWrite.All, Sites.Read.All, Sites.FullControl.All, Directory.Read.All Already tried: Both v1.0 and /beta endpoints same result Every relevant permission combination But the official document says it should work: Link to documentation: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/onedrive/developer/rest-api/concepts/scan-guidance?view=odsp-graph-online#receiving-webhook-notifications-for-security-events Any working example or confirmation of current status would be extremely helpful. Happy to share more details or test specific configurations.
SharePoint Template Gallery
Hey everyone, I'm running into an issue with the new SharePoint site page template gallery. Some of my templates are showing up consistently, while others appear intermittently — even though all the metadata is identical across them. I've been troubleshooting but can't pinpoint what's causing the inconsistency. For context: I have over 100 templates in the gallery. A template I just created is displaying fine, but one I made last week isn't showing up at all, so I don't think it's a template count issue. Any insights would be really appreciated!
