Posts about SharePoint and Office 365
I wrote another guest article over on the AuroraBits blog, going into some detail on each of the current web parts (as of late September 2017 when I wrote it) for SharePoint Online Modern pages. Actually, there was so much material and detail that it turned into a two-part post, which I broke down by…
Ooh, the PowerApps team announced this week that they’ve added 33 new icons! I took a look through them in the Icons dropdown, and thought it might be useful to show the currently available icons and shapes all in one place… (you’ll probably want to zoom in on this a bit) I’m not sure exactly…
I was honored to be able to present a session on Microsoft Flow at SharePoint Saturday Cambridge this year, on September 9… I’d never been to Cambridge, and I was especially happy to be able to reunite with my Lightning Tools colleagues as well! The event is run in conjunction with a SQL Saturday –…
I wrote a guest blog post over on the Aurora Bits site, about the user experience in SharePoint Modern lists and libraries… By the way, while you’re on the Aurora Bits site, I recommend checking out their FlyView tool for SharePoint. It’s a very cool SharePoint navigation tool, giving you a dropdown/flyout navigation system, complete…
The Microsoft Flow team announced yesterday that the “Save As” feature is now available for Team Flows. It was previously only available for your own Flows. The use case might be a Flow you shared with your co-workers so they could run it on demand, and then you find that an additional, similar yet different,…
I’ve written a walkthrough on the PowerApps Community Blog site, demoing the usage of the Microsoft Translator connection. I’m getting some use out of my “Quick Translator” app this summer as I travel in Europe!
I had the honor of presenting a session at this year’s SharePoint Saturday Baltimore event, which is one I hadn’t ever attended. It took place this year at Phoenix Technology Solutions in Columbia MD. My session was an introductory “Making Your Life Easier with Microsoft Flow”, and the slides are available via this link: Microsoft Flow…
I’ve noticed some interesting things about notifications in Planner, so I thought I’d share. Microsoft has information on Planner notifications, but I wasn’t completely clear on some of the behavior until I poked around in it a bit. I have a Plan for an O365 Group I created for doing work with a client, so…
I’ve been playing around a little bit with Microsoft Teams since about the first of the year, when it was still in Preview, and being at SPTechCon this week reminded me that I really should update the Teams Client app on my laptop now that Microsoft released it to General Availability last month. Of course,…
I was doing some housekeeping on my PowerApps and Flow connections this evening, and found this nice little safety net… To delete a Connection (say, for example, you no longer have access to a given email account), you just click on it in the list of connections: If you blithely try to click the deletion garbage…
Where have the days gone?
