I remember the Property Bag feature from long ago, namely SharePoint 2013. I never used it. Apparently, it’s still around and available for SharePoint Online. There is no GUI for it so setting or viewing Property Bag key/value pairs is done either programmatically or via PowerShell. Scripts are disabled by default on SharePoint Online modern […]
Want to edit the toolbar on a list in SharePoint Online as shown above? April Dunham has provided an excellent and concise video on YouTube. She covers how to hide, move, and edit the text on the various toolbar buttons on a SharePoint list by editing the JSON for the List view. Caveat: You have […]
I cannot say enough about Salaudeen Rajack. His website – SharePointDiary.com – is awesome and I often find content there that one simply cannot find elsewhere. Recently, he posted a list on LinkedIn of 10 excellent (and free) resource guides that he offers on his website. So I’m copying and pasting the list here for […]
It feels odd to write a non-technical post but I read an interesting article about product development around the SharePoint ecosystem at Microsoft over the past 8 years and it is worth sharing. This is an interesting behind-the-scenes view. It seems to me that the focus lately has been on the end-user experience, the UI/UX, […]
Power Automate (formerly called Microsoft Flow) is the automation tool for the M365 suite of products. Like many of you, I grew accustomed to using Workflows and the SharePoint Designer tool to create and edit workflows in previous versions of SharePoint. Now with Power Automate, there are several ways to connect with other systems. I’ll […]
Scott Ortlepp at SProbot has provided a step-by-step guide of an end-to-end process for Governance in an M365 environment. First, he set up a Contract Contact Type, then a Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policy in the SharePoint Admin Center, followed by setting up a Compliance rule within the policy that blocks files associated with the […]
Today I was reading this article from the SharePointEurope.com site about PDF forms. Most likely, as a SharePoint admin you’re going to want to use a SharePoint List to capture input from a form. The form will probably be either the default form created for you when you created the list, or that very form […]
Today I found two tools from LinkTek that I want to share. First, the free one. LinkReporter is a free tool that reports on broken links throughout your IT enterprise. I suggest you run it and then decide to either fix the links manually or use a paid product to fix them for you. The […]
Fortunately for me, I’ve switched over to SharePoint Online. However, for those admins who are running SharePoint Server 2019 on-premise, the recently released May 2022 Cumulative Update (CU) may make your entire left-hand navigation disappear! Thankfully, Stefan Goßner at Microsoft has posted the issue details and the resolution on his wonderful blog. Remember: when installing […]
Recently, Microsoft has added a nifty button in the upper-left corner of SharePoint Online (part of the Microsoft 365 package) that renders the logged-in user’s recent history for Sites, Lists, and Files, as well as recommended news and global navigation. The App Bar button is just to the right of the Microsoft 365 “waffle” icon […]
