We have migrated documents from file share (Network Drive) to SharePoint Online. Installed Office 2016 on clients computer.
Issue is that when we try to synch document library with client computer, we got stuck at pop up for login and credentials.
When we enter login and password, nothing happens. We can't sign in and we can go back. No button works.

Hi,
I recently came across a problem in our organisation's O365 tenant.
The users have a problem in generating ‘Get a Link’ in document libraries, this however, works fine if we disable ‘Require Check Out’ Option under Versioning settings. We started receiving complaints from our users that this problem is seen since recently and I believe this is since the recent update in our tenant.
Is this the expected behavior? Since this did not happen ever before, could you please explain as to why this is brought in?
Thanks

Hi all,
I am in the process of setting up Sharepoint online to move our on premise. I've used Sharepoint online with other companies and never seen this before. When you go to add a new page, the location defaults to www.mycompany.sharepoint.com, instead of www.mycompany.sharepoint.com/SitePages. We have a site pages library, and pages library set up. How can we change it so it puts new pages in the Site Pages library like it is supposed to?
Hello,
Is there a way to embed credentials securely in a Client-Side Web Part?
I'd like the Web Part to connect to other applications like Salesforce or another SharePoint Online site using an application key. Obviously including the credentials in the client side code will expose them to users, is there another way?
Thanks.

Hi
We use webdav client in Windows 10 (like other folder in Windows) to update information in SharePoint Online, but always I need to connect to sharepoint online website and "open with File Explorer" to authenticate so folder link in Explorer works.
Is there any way to save username/password online sharepoint in webdav link, so always I can connect sharepoint online without using website.

Hello,
I am able to download Images from SPO using code given below. My question is how to maintain the original size of the image which is mentioned in URL. (RenditionID=5 in my case)
public static void DownoadFile(string FilePath,string DestinationPath)
{
//Filepath parameter to be passed below
Uri filename = new Uri(@"https://mysiteurl.com/Sites/PublishingImages/2016/Test.jpg?RenditionID=6");
string server = filename.AbsoluteUri.Replace(filename.AbsolutePath, "");
string serverrelative = filename.AbsolutePath;
ClientContext clientContext = new ClientContext("https://mysiteurl.com/Sites/");
clientContext.Credentials = GetO365Credentials(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["username"], ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["password"]);
FileInformation f = Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.File.OpenBinaryDirect(clientContext, serverrelative);
//DestinationPath parameter to be used below
using (var fileStream = new FileStream(@"c:\Test.jpg", FileMode.Create))
f.Stream.CopyTo(fileStream);
}
public static SharePointOnlineCredentials GetO365Credentials(string userName, string passWord)
{
SecureString securePassWord = new SecureString();
foreach (char c in passWord.ToCharArray()) securePassWord.AppendChar(c);
SharePointOnlineCredentials credentials = new SharePointOnlineCredentials(userName, securePassWord);
return credentials;
}Hello. Office 365 allows user to create meeting rooms testroom1@x.onmicrosoft.com, testroom2@x.onmicrosoft.com,testroom3@x.onmicrosoft.com (https://portal.office.com/adminportal/home#/ResourceMailbox). I would like to read these room in console application.
I used EWS (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn643730%28v=exchg.150%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396) to authenticate to O365 but EmailAddressCollection myrooms = Service.GetRoomLists(); does not return results. I can use EWS to send email so connection should work. Am I doing something wrong? If so how can I list all meeting rooms / resources?

I have many site collections that use a SharePoint Add-in common for most of the pages in sites and subsites. Each time when I create a new version of add-in and upload in appcatalog, I have to manually go to all the sites and follow steps - site contents> select add-in > click on upgrade >Get it . Is there anyway such that if I upload new version of an app it should automatically upgraded in all the sites?
I have tried below link from which I was able to only deploy the Add-in but not install it.

Hi,
I have inherited some O365 webs that have /lists/ in the path name for the document libraries.
These libraries were created by a sandbox solution that has been disabled.
I am trying to understand why the document libraries with the document content type would have lists in the path.
If I create new libraries the path is sitename/library name. This is an issue as the path including /lists/ has been hardcoded into other parts of the overall solution (outside SharePoint) so I need to create new libraries with the /lists path.
Interestingly the app icon for these libraries is not the document library one but the data connection library Icon. I have created a data connection library though and it is also missing /lists/ in the path.
Any ideas?
Many thanks

I've been working on displaying some excel diagrams on a SharePoint Online page (through ExcelRest.aspx) where the data for the diagrams is coming from an Azure SQL. The connection has worked alright (although I couldn't get the secure store service application to work), but now the main issue is with scheduling refreshes of the external data. I've tried to set the connections to automatically refresh and also to refresh on open (in case that ExcelRest.aspx in some way opens the file) in the excel files but nothing seems to work.
Is it even possible to schedule excel data refreshes in SharePoint Online?
The only way that seems like it would work at the moment is running some kind of custom code/job (perhaps a Azure webjob) that does the refreshing for me, in a similar way described in:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/f624a065-f95b-4bee-b1ff-68ab84b01fa7/data-refresh-of-excel-file-on-sharepoint-2013-online-e3 (even though the link is marked as obsolete?)
Refresh Excel dataset in SharePoint Online with PowerShell 403 error
Refreshing External data connection to Sharepoint library in Excel file automatically
But perhaps there is some way I've overlooked?
In SharePoint online, is it possible to have an Excel file refresh its external data on a schedule, even when the file is not open?
I want the end-user to have current data when they open it, and not have to wait for the refresh to happen when they open the file.
Thanks.

This discusses part of the issue:
However, is there no way to schedule a refresh? In SP 2013 you can click on the Workbook and go to data refresh and schedule a refresh.
This does not seem to be an option in SPO?
I have an Excel sheet using a SPO list as a data source. I just want to refresh the Excel sheet on a schedule so it will go out to the list and get changes.
Then inside that sheet is a pivot table showing a chart.
Is there no way to do this with SharePoint Online?
Thanks!

We have mandatory metadata fields on our content type. When people drag/drop files they are checked out and are only visible to the user and admins (via Library Settings).
Is there a way to have these files checked out, but visible to all users? I'm fine with them being checked out as we have a column in our views that show who the Checked Out To person is. I've thought about having a default value like "NOT CATEGORIZED" so the file is automatically checked in so people can see that value and remember to add metadata and check in the file.
But is there another way? Maybe a workflow can add dummy metadata during the upload process, then delete it and check it out?
