SharePoint Modern experince - join event overview

$
0
0

Hi all,

I am trying to create some kind of event feature in Modern Experience, where user can not only see the different event occurring in the organisation, but also have an option where they have an option to join/no join the event, that give the organizer an idea about how many employees they can expect to participate in any given event.

I know we have the event web part, where we can list all the event, but the join part does not seem like something that can be done out of the box, but maybe one of you know of a way to do this OOTB functionality?

I was considering using forms to do this, but it doesn't seem like that will give me exactly what I need.

Any ideas on this one?

"Start workflow when an item is created/changed"

Is there a way to uncheck/check these boxes with powershell?  I'm looking for the right words.  I see a way to execute a workflow but not modify the automation.

Choose Document Template to use based on User Input

$

Hey all!

For Sharepoint Online...

Is there a way to have Document Templates be chosen automatically based on a choice by the user?

For example, let's call our Document Templates "Interfaces". We have lots of Interfaces (120+) such as Person Import, Payroll Export, etc. Each needs their own Document Template.

The goal is when a user is in Sharepoint and they click New, they will be prompted or asked for what Interface. If they choose Person Import, then the PersonImport.docx template will load for them to edit/customize as needed.

I know we can solve this via Content Types, but then our New dropdown would be 120+ items long, so looking for a choice based option to solve this.

We are new to Sharepoint online, what options do we have to solve this?

Thank you!

SharePoint Online InfoPath Library Error

Hello,

We have a Forms library with InfoPath forms in our SharePoint online environment. When trying to open the form it gives the following error.

The URL Forms/template.xsn is an unsupported relative URL. To fix this problem, use a site-relative URL starting with '~site' or a site collection-relative URL starting with '~sitecollection'. You can also use an absolute URL.

I have tried classic view and modern view. Nothing is working.

Please let me know any troubleshooting ideas.

Thanks

Alerting for Document Library with Versioning Turned On

$

We have a SP site for our Content Management documents. Versioning is turn on and set up correctly. I have a flow that will allow users to notify the owner that a document needs to be moved from Pending to Approved status.

The Owner's also have an Alert set up to be notified of any changes that happens in that folder, however it is not sending anything at all... Nothing when a new file is created, when it is checked out, when it is checked in, when it is moved to pending status or when it is moved to approved status... Is this a limitation when Versioning is turned on?

Linking an on-prem Distribution List to a SharePoint online site

We have a distribution list that have been created using our on-prem Exchange server that we have given to our customers and they have been using this for many many years...

We have created a SharePoint site with the same users that are in the DL and would like to somehow get the email that comes in from the DL to go to the SP site, which would then go to all the members of the site.

Is this possible? I could not find anything regarding this when I attempted to search for anyone else having this situation

SPO modern page - highlighted content WP filter by "managed properties" does not work

In modern page - add highlighted content:

Select filter by "Managed Properties" > type a word to narrow down the properties, found a match >pick the column:XYZ >

select "Equal" and enter "ABC" (a value in the selected property XYZ which is managed metadata.)

No other filters, and default to "All sites"

but piece of content that has the value "ABC" in column "XYZ" not showing in the WP.

Anyone has any idea? why this does not work?

Thanks for any tips!

Document library column value from single uploaded Excel file cell - Possible?

$
0
0

I've been trying to 'automate' a property column in a document library by having its value populated by each document added.

To try to explain a little clearer:

User adds document to the library (always the same Excel workbook format - just different info).Cell SheetX!E11 willalways be a value that we want to reflect the value of the column for that document.

So I am trying to get cell SheetX!E11 in the workbook to populate the specific column in the library.

What I've tried:

  • Linking the cell in the workbook to a property. This works offline, but Excel Online does not support linked properties - and it works, but only when the document is initially uploaded. The drawback was a showstopper.

Options I've thought 'might' work, but still looking to find out if they are possible solutions and if anyone can help:

  • PowerShell script on a scheduled task to go through each file in the SPO doc library, look at their cell E11, and write that as their corresponding property.
  • Flow/Power Automate... ? I don't have a lot of experience with this, but seems like it 'might' have the power to accomplish this (just not sure how to reference a since cell in a document and write it to the column property for that doc... Essentially the whole process :P ).

Does this somewhat make sense what I'm trying to accomplish?  Logically it seems like a simple task - but some limitations of the SharePoint Doc Library might have added some complexity (or impossibility...).

Does anyone have any experience with something like this?  Or is there somewhere else I should be looking for this answer?  Regardless, I appreciate ANY direction anyone might be able to provide!

Thank you!


View-Only Access To All Items in List

$

We have a SharePoint list for customer complaints that allows all users to add new entries (contribute) but then only view the items they have created (set in Settings > Advanced Settings).  I have a request for auditors to haveread-only access to all items the list.  Unfortunately I can't find a way to do this with SharePoint Online.  Here is what I have come across so far:

  • Create separate views for users and auditors, but I cannot find a way to force each group to only use a specific view.  I had read suggestions of using site pages and target audiences but I didn't see how it helped to lock users into a specific view, though I am not very familiar with this option.
  • Defining a custom permission, but this doesn't appear to be possible in SPO.
  • Granting auditors the Design permission.  This allows them to see the entire list, but they could also accidentally edit it.

Please let me know if there is a way to do this; it's very possible I'm missing something!

Thanks.

I have created a Infopath form and using a list as database, it is a approval flow where you need to add information. The system flow will the create a word document either as and attachemnt to the list or save the document to a Doc. Libary.
My problem is that the word document uses the "Sign" feature with certificates deployed from AD, because it uses that feature i need to link to the document with

Modern team site - Left navigation active link issue

I have created one site collection using modern team site, which contains various sub-sites. I have set hyperlinks of different sub-sites in left navigation of root site and subsites manually. 

Now, when I visit one sub-site, it would show that hyperlink in left navigation as active one as per expected behavior, but for some of the sub-site links, it's not showing them active, instead it shows active link on some other site's links in left navigation.

i.e.
In my case when select "Test1" site it's showing "Test2" link from left navigation as active.


Calendar view of list not showing as calendar

$

Hello,

I have a modern list with a Start Date and End Date. I have created a Calendar view of the list. When I try to access the Calendar view through the view drop-down it shows the data in a list format and NOT as a calendar.

If I go to List Settings and access the Calendar View it shows up like a Calendar.

For a work around I have created a one column site page and added the embed code webpart. I then added this for the embed code <iframe src="https://MyTenantName.com/teams/p00018/moveteam/Lists/MoveSchedule/Calendar.aspx?isdlg=1" width="100%" height="800px"></iframe>. This works fine, but makes my users have to navigate to a different page to see the Calendar view.

Anyone have any idea why the view drop-down is NOT displaying the actual Calendar view?

Thanks in advance for your help.

I am working on SPO Page Templates as an alternative to Page Layouts in my current business requirement for SharePoint Modern Page.

I have a scenario, like once when a page a created based on a Page Template in SharePoint Online, if the page template is updated with new functionalities, can the existing page also get updated based on the new Page template?

And if it doesn't get updated based on the new template, what can be a feasible option to get the previously created pages to get updated.
