Stream on SharePoint Thumbnails Not Updating
So here's the scenario...and what I think could be a common scenario. 1. You add a video to a document library that you want to display on a page 2. You go to the library and launch the video to access Video Settings 3. You upload an image as the thumbnail 4. You add a file viewer web part to a page to display the video and the proper thumbnail displays Then a few days later your customer asks you to use a different image as the thumbnail...you follow steps 1-3 above and the thumbnail never updates on the page where the video is being displayed. When you access the source video from the doc library and view the details pane....you can see the NEW thumbnail showing up...but yet it won't display on the page where you placed the file viewer web part. This has happened on several occasions. Why are the simplest things the most difficult in SharePoint? Super frustrating. Before you suggest clearing cache...I don't think we should have to depend on our customers to clear cache every time we make an update to a thumbnail.
Stream/Clipchamp Interactivity does not accept Microsoft Forms URLs.
I discovered a compatibility issue between Microsoft Stream/Clipchamp interactivity and Microsoft Forms. Forms currently generates response URLs using the forms.cloud.microsoft domain. When these URLs are supplied to the Stream interactivity API, the API rejects them with invalidRequest: Invalid form url. Replacing the domain with forms.office.com allows the interactivity element to be saved successfully. This suggests the Stream validation logic has not been updated to recognize the newer Forms URL domain. Reproduction Steps Upload video to SharePoint/Stream. Add Forms interactivity element. Use URL generated by Microsoft Forms Share button. URL format: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=... Save Fails Observed Result { "code":"invalidRequest", "message":"Invalid form url." } If you replace forms.cloud.microsoft with forms.office.com, it will allow you to save the interactivity.
