SharePoint Tricks

1y ago
Photo by Brando Louhivaara on Unsplash Microsoft Lists views are powerful, and you can adjust them as your need. You can have basic ones for regular users and more advanced ones, for instance for the admins of the site. Obviously, all the views are available for all the users which will have access to them. However, a few weeks ago I found that you can hide those views. The following PowerShell script, using PnP will allow you to hide the View from all users who can see it. $siteUrl = "https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/site" $listName = "Announcements" $viewName = "List View" Connect-PnPO ..read more

Photo by Maarten van den Heuvel on Unsplash There are a few options to achieve this result, you can do a PNP template, create a folder individually and that onwards, and there is a command that will create all the folders if you respect some logic which I will use here. I recommend you update your PNP PowerShell to make sure you got the same cmdlets used by the script. We will use a command that allows us to create a folder if we provide the relative URL of the folders in case those folders do not exist yet. The structure of our CSV is the following, the code will be ready to folderN. Please b ..read more

Photo by Javier Allegue Barros on Unsplash A few weeks ago, I need to change a content type from SharePoint into another one. There are a few alternatives to do either by using a custom solution, Power Automate and/or logic apps. The idea was when an item is created change the content type from x to y. To achieve this, you have 2 different options: When an item is created your Flow runs and it contains a control that either changes the content type or ignore the item created. When an item is created you check the content initial content type and your Flow runs if the item is created with a sp ..read more

SharePoint Tricks

Did you know that if you’re a SharePoint Site collection owner you cannot see all the pages created? A few days ago, I notice that I should have a certain number of pages on the Site Pages library (80 or something) but only a few appear for my user. You can verify how many files you have on the particular library on the Site contents of your site. This happens because the page was created but nothing was been done with the page. Let’s give some example of how this can happen. You create a page on SharePoint but before adding any text or anything like that you just close the browser or navigat ..read more
