How to grant access to SharePoint subsite with no Owners
Hello! Can someone advise how I can add a user to a SharePoint site with no Owners/Members or Admins? It is a Classic SharePoint subsite so I cannot modify any settings using the SharePoint Admin Centre so I need to find a script or a method of some sort to allow me to add a user account to the site to then be able to review it/decommission it etc.? TIA!
Download and Access Issues for External Users with SharePoint “Anyone” link sharing option.
Hi All, We are looking for help resolving a recurring issue with file sharing in SharePoint. All files and folders we share with external customers use the “Anyone” sharing link option (Anyone with the link can access). Despite this, we regularly face these problems: Customers can view files but cannot always download them from the browser (for example, using the "Create a Copy”, “Download a Copy" or "Save as" option in the PowerPoint files). Sometimes, sharing the parent folder (containing the file) link allows the external user to download, even though the file link itself does not. The problem is intermittent and not linked to settings or policies—sometimes everything works, sometimes it does not, even when we generate new links. No restrictive site, library, or organizational policies are applied; “Block download” is not set and full link access is confirmed. Using a private/incognito tab sometimes enables the link to work when it otherwise fails in a normal browser session, but not always. We want to understand why this happens and whether there is an underlying issue, known bug, or additional configuration we should review that could make “Anyone” links unpredictable for downloads with external users. Has anyone else experienced similar issues? If so, how did you resolve it, or are you still searching for answers? We’d really appreciate hearing your experiences and suggestions! Thank you for your advice and support!
Unusual Activity for a User
Hi, I have an issue with a user who raised a query that they are having issues syncing files to SharePoint. Whilst I'm investigating this another query came in advising that this same user has been creating folders and uploading documents...... They have confirmed that there account has not been shared and can confirm from the signing in logs on Entra that no suspicious IP address is being used. Anyone have any idea of what is occurring?? I've advised the user to delete any links they have and stop syncing. Regards Chris
Permission settings only to edit my record
Hi. I have a List connected with Power Apps, so i have to share permissions with the autors to create and edit. However, if they enter to the list on SharePoint they can edit everything, their own records and those which other users created. In my process this action shouldn't happen ¿Is there some way to set a permission where I can only edit the records that I have created?
Sharepoint view level permissions
Hello, I’m facing an issue in SharePoint. I have a main list where I need to create two views one for “A” users and another for “B” users. What should change is, for example, that “A” users can only see column “A” and “B” users can only see column “B”. And being sensitive data, they shouldn't be able see each other's columns. Using different lists is the only viable way I currently see this working, which i don't really want since this requires a lot more of work, unless someone can suggest a better solution. Note that currently I'm using two different pages inside the same website for user's "A" and "B". Thank you very much.
Issue with ribbon permissions in Microsoft Project.
I am working on Microsoft Project (EPM) and want to hide the Status button from the ribbon for the Project Manager role. I have already tried adjusting the permissions in PWA settings, but the button is still visible. Could you please suggest an alternative method?Restricting View/Edit/Create of Sharepoint List items to creator only
Hi Team, I need to build a feedback Power App that can read and write to a Sharepoint Online List held within a Private team ( the HR team for example ). All users need to be able to edit their own records and their managers can update ones assigned to them BUT if they look at the list directly, they are not allowed to see other peoples records. What is the best way to achieve this level of access control..? Can it be done using SharePoint lists or does it need to be managed through Power Apps/Power Automate somehow..?Sharepoint site permissions issues - Visitors group users not granted access
Hey there, One of our colleague was wrongly given the "owner" role for a SP site. That person went to the advanced permissions settings panel and randomly deleted the site default "Visitors" group. Then of course every persons depending on that permissions level to visite the site received a "Denied access" error when trying to reach the site. What we saw was no more "visitors" group in the advanced permissions settings panel BUT; "visitors" group still appearing in the basic consol on the website (gear icon>site permissions) and enclosing users; when checking access to specific pages or content "visitors" group was missing. We then recreated a new "Visitors" group with "read only" classic permissions. Yet same issue "Denied access" and same observations made (see bullets list above). We did it again creating a very similar group called "Read-only". After several trials. we asked permissions to access the page directly from the error page "Denied access". User was then able to access the site. From there we checked the permissions status for that user, from that check we can see that this user is depending on the "Visitors" and "Read-only" groups... Yet we can't see that user withing these groups... Of course if we deleted the user from all users and add it in one of these two groups, it can't access the site. We read a lot on permissions lately but can't find anyone else experiencing this. Additional info: This site is part of a hub and is the only one affected All sites are configured the same way The only settings that changes was that deleted default "visitors" group on that specific website. (so it has to come from that) We won't be asking people to ask for permissions from the "Denied access" error page since it would not solve the original issue and we set up groups within Active Directory to easily manage users and their permissions across MS apps. Should anyone have a solution ;)... Cheers
