Document Library
3129 TopicsThe Document ID is editable for documents inside the Document Set
I have created a Document Set Content Type and associate it with a Document Library, also enabled the Document ID feature on my SharePoint Teams site. I noticed that the Document ID is read-only at the Document Set level, but it is editable in documents inside the Document Set. I checked another library where a Document Set is not used, and there, the Document ID is not editable.8Views0likes0Commentsunable to edit sharepoint page

Hello, We migrated company folders and files from Dropbox Business to a SharePoint Online document library using the Migration Manager tool in Microsoft 365 Admin Center. No issues with the tool. Once the folders and file were migrated, we noticed that we were unable to perform simple sharing of folders and files to external users (both non-Microsoft and Microsoft 365). While the share steps were normal and the external recipients received the share notification emails, when they clicked on them, performed the OTP, they were presented with Your account doesn't have access to these resources. Share settings are wide open for any user to share externally at the SharePoint Online admin center and Site level. Performed several share tests with different external account types and unable to access the share. We then created a new document library and tested sharing and had no issues with different external account types. Opened a case with Microsoft Support and they stated that it may be a known issue with the Migration Manager tool specifically when migrating from Dropbox. Their solution was to move the folders and files to a new library. We created a new document library and tested external sharing. No issues. Then moved the folders and files using the GUI to the new library. As we started to share folders and files externally, external users started reporting some can access while others cannot. After more testing we discovered that we can share externally to non-Microsoft 365 work accounts (Gmail, Outlook.com, etc.) with no issues. When sharing specifically to external Microsoft 365 work accounts, they cannot access the shared resources when they receive the share notification email. There is no problem creating the share. We are just clicking on the share icon, adjusting the share settings as needed, enter the external addresses, and send the share. The external recipients receive the email notification without issue, click on the link, perform the OTP, and then receive the message Your account does not have access to these resources. We have another Microsoft Support case open, but if anyone has any insights much would be appreciated. Also, note that when sharing from any user's OneDrive, no issue at all. All external account types can access the shares without issue. Thanks!16Views0likes0CommentsAllow Non-Owner Members to Share Edit Privileges with their own List & Libraries
I manage a SharePoint site where we want members to access only content they need access to. Each member is assigned to a portal based on their location in Entra ID. To allow users to work together on projects we need user to be able to share document libraries and list with edit rights. Right now users can share their own created list and libraries, but the invited users only have read permissions. Is their anyway to set it to where they can also have edit permissions. We don't every user to be a an owner of portal sites.19Views0likes1CommentJSON formatting within SharePoint not functioning?
Hello! Has anyone noticed a sudden degradation with JSON formatting across SharePoint? I have code on a SharePoint list that has suddenly stopped working properly when I use it on another view. I cannot see to even be able to modify simple, out of the box things, like the width or height of the tile. Anyone know if there is a bug with JSON formatting at the moment?11Views0likes0CommentsLog to show library deletion
Hello all! I'm having an issue find a library in SharePoint Online. I have access to an admin account in SharePoint and have tried looking in audit logs and in the recycling bin to try and find what has happened to the library but it has seemed to have vanished somehow. The audit log shows the changes that were made to folders and files within the library as of last month, but the audit log does not appear to show if/when a whole library is deleted (tested by deleting a test library). The library itself is completely MIA. Does anyone know of logs or a way to track what has happened to a library if it does not show up in Site Contents, Recycling Bin, or Audit Log Reports within the Site Collection Administration in Site Settings? Any insight is greatly appreciated!2Views0likes0CommentsAssign permissions multiple files in library with no folders
Hello I have a library using metadata only - no folders. I want to assign permissions on a number of files simultaneously. We would normally use folders and put docs in there but we don't want to do that. We don't want to use power automate or scripting. How to do this?7Views0likes0CommentsSharepoint site synced via file explorer regularly disconnects without errors
We have an issue with one particular sharepoint site in our organisation, where, seemingly randomly, it stops syncing on user devices. No errors, nothing, just the cloud icons disappear and it's no long in sync, until you go and re-sync it. This is happening on only one site, but has happened on 10+ different devices over the past month or so. The site in question only has about 6k files in it, it's about 30gb. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can troubleshoot this? Currently how I'm finding out about it is a user contacts me with "Bob is saying he can't see the file I save in XYZ folder but I saved it in there over a week ago". I go an look and can't see the file, check their machine and it's stopped syncing that same site, resync it and it works again for maybe a month.181Views2likes4CommentsDisplaying DocLib File URL Path in Column
Good day, Using SharePoint Online (modern) and set up a new document library called DOCLIB1. There are two folders in the library called FOLDER1 and FOLDER2. FILE1.TXT and FILE2.TXT are located within FOLDER1 (and are displayed by those names in the SharePoint default "NAME" column). There is also a FILE2.TXT (same name but different content) in FOLDER2. Searching the DocLib for anything called "FILE2", I see two results, but cannot tell where the files are located (cannot tell which is which). I created a new column called PATH, with a Type of "Single line of text". Can I display a file path in this new column to see something like "FOLDER1/FILE2.TXT" for the first search result returned, and "FOLDER2/FILE2.TXT" for the next? Thanks!Solved11KViews1like12Comments
