New Document Card View For Libraries With A SharePoint Syntex Model Applied

There is now a new document card view to display extracted model information (metadata) in a tile view in libraries that have a SharePoint Syntex document understanding model (DUM) applied.

Use Sites.Selected Permission with FullControl rather than Write or Read

Over the past year Microsoft have released Sites.Selected permissions for both Microsoft Graph & SharePoint which can be given to an Azure AD App (App Registration). When created the app by default with Sites.Selected permissions does not have access to any SharePoint sites and has to be explicitly added added using Microsoft Graph or PnP PowerShell (Grant-PnPAzureADAppSitePermission) to the site(s) to be administered.

I realised to add board view it followed the same pattern – using SharePoint Rest API.

Extract All Table Data (Rows) In A Form Using SharePoint Syntex

One of the most exciting new features I have used recently is the ability to train SharePoint Syntex forms processing to extract rows of data from a table where the row count is variable.

Adding the New Modern Calendar View to a SharePoint List using PnP PowerShell

Recently we have finally been able to add a modern calendar view to a list in SharePoint Online through the UI. Before this a calendar view was only available in SharePoint classic mode. I wanted to automate this view creation and in order to do this I turned to my trusty friend PnP PowerShell.
