Can upload file from Teams chat files to Posts but not to Shared
I was working on an Excel file shared in a chat with members of a small workgroup. When it was ready to share with the larger team, I navigated to the appropriate Team > Channel, created a Post, clicked on + > Attach file > selected the file (which had been modified recently, so displayed on the pop-up). The team lead asked me to save it in a particular folder in the team's files, so I navigated to Shared (formerly Files)... and did not see it. I could briefly see it if I selected the "In messages" filter, but then after a moment that bugged out and displayed the "Something went wrong" error screen. This behavior persisted (briefly visible file list, then error screen) even after quitting Teams via the task bar and opening it back up. I did not want to create a separate version (especially now that the original file was linked in the Post), so I tried a few different methods to get it into Shared. I tried copying a link, but couldn't figure out a good way to paste it into Shared. I tried pasting it in a new Link, but that preserved it as a link/URL rather than a file -- serviceable but awkward. I checked whether there was an easier way to do it by opening in the web version, where Files is still active rather than Shared (same behavior, except no "In messages" filter so I couldn't test that). I poked around in SharePoint but didn't see anything interesting. I tried uploading a copy from within Shared by pasting the filepath from the "Save a Copy" dialog in Excel... ...and that's when I noticed a possible cause of the issue: another member of the original workgroup chat had created the file, and it was living in her Teams chat files, not mine. I then had her try doing it by navigating to her Teams chat files and selecting her copy, and then hallelujah, it appeared in Shared. I was able to drag it to the appropriate folder normally. Ultimately, I see two questions: Why does the file appear when the "In messages" filter is selected, but not otherwise? Why can I add a file saved in someone else's Teams chat files to a Post, but I can't upload it in Shared? Bonus: any idea why the "In messages" filter caused an error message to display?

For a multi-person (shared) To Do list, can the same categories be shared on each person's list?
Using a shared To Do list with 2 people. Is there a way that 1 person can label with a category and the other person can see it? The categories I place on the shared list do not show on the list of the other individual I share the list with. I know the category comes from my calendar but we share calendar access. I need both of us to be able to see what category each task has been assigned. If not, is there any other way to organize a to do list except prioritized vs not prioritized?

Shared folder sync not possible anymore?! Workaround?
Hi guys We are using the OneDrive for Business. (Work) Around 6 months ago, I made a OD share with my colleague from the same organization. He was able to sync this share on his machine with the local OneDrive client. My colleague had a breake for 6 months, during this time he was not working on that share. Today he starts again with the work. We realized that it's not possible anymore, to sync the shared folder (where Im the owner of the share) with his local OneDrive Client. Accessing to the share over web is no problem. Why is that so? Is there a workaround? If not, this fact would make the cooperation work over OneDrive really useless. After research I did find this information: Source: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/add-and-sync-shared-folders-to-onedrive-8a63cd47-1526-4cd8-bd09-ee3f9bfc1504 Thank you in advance.Need Help: Accessing 'Shared' DriveItem Property in SharePoint Without Delta API
Hello everyone! I am attempting to retrieve all root drive items from a folder, including the 'Shared' property of each drive item. However, even when I explicitly include the 'shared' attribute in my QueryOption object, it does not seem to reflect any changes. It always returns an object with the "Scope" property set to "user", even if the default permissions have not been altered for the item. Interestingly, when utilizing the Delta API, the behavior observed is that only items with set permissions (beyond the default ones) return a valid, non-null "Shared" object with the "Scope" property set to 'user'. Conversely, items without set permissions (i.e., default permissions only) return a null "Shared" object. This difference effectively helps in determining whether each item was actually shared. The reason I need to specifically fetch a list of ROOT drive items for a folder, rather than utilizing the Delta API to track changes (which could potentially traverse through sub-folders and their children/grandchildren on an initial query), is due to the requirement to perform a clean fetch of all items for specific SharePoint site libraries. These libraries often contain thousands of subfolders and files, while we are only interested in the root items of a particular folder for caching purposes. The Delta API variant could potentially take over an hour per folder to traverse through, which is not feasible for our needs. Unless there's a way to restrict Delta API calls to only directly access a root folder's children, I'm seeking alternative solutions. Here is my Select query option (C#) : new QueryOption("select", " id, name, createdDateTime, lastModifiedBy, lastModifiedDateTime, size, parentReference, permissions, sharepointIds, file, eTag, webDavUrl, deleted, folder, shared") As you can see I've included the 'shared' attribute in this query. My Graph API request (C#) : driveItemRequest.ItemWithPath(formattedPath).Children.Request(options) Is there any way I can obtain the desired "Shared" property without resorting to the Delta API for all root items in a folder? Alternatively, is there a method involving Permissions endpoints that I can use to achieve a similar result? At this stage, I am only in need of a boolean flag indicating whether permissions have been modified or not, as mentioned earlier. Thanks in advance to anyone who can offer any guidance on this matter ! Kind regards, Facundo.
Outlook calendar vs Gmail Calendar
Hello... I am trying to share my calendars within Outlook via Office 365. Here is my dilemma... I need to mimic the same experience as I would within the Google calendars. I am moving from Gmail to Office 365 (for my business) and I have users that have used the Gmail Calendar for years and they want to have a similar experience. They like that view has multiple calendars on the left and you can share the calendar with internal and external people... and you can see all of the calendars in one view. Is there a view and/or group and/or resource and/or setup and/or Sharepoint site that can mimic the look and feel of what Gmail has given my users for years? The thing is... I would like the calendar events/objects to appear within my calendar app on my phone. Is that possible?Create Communications Sites option is gone?
I used to see "Create Communication Site" when clicking the plus sign on OneDrive. It was a page that said create a Team Site or Communication site. It now just says "Get a team site with Office 365 Groups" and there is no template options. I don't see anywhere else in the UI to create a Communications Site. It also does not appear, that I have found, in the Admin Center. Apologies if this post is in the wrong channel (Maybe it should be in O365 Groups or OneDrive *sigh*)??
