SharePoint Site URL rename

SharePoint site URL rename As business changes, so, too, can you sites - especially site URLs. In the SharePoint admin center you will be able to change site URLs by renaming them. So for example, if you have a site contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/Develpment, using the SharePoint admin center you can rename the site URL to correct the incorrect spelling of “Development." These changes are opaque, meaning that access requests to the old URL are redirected – users will not need to have to update their links.Roadmap ID: 56205 We’re making it possible for SharePoint administrators to change site URLs. As a global or SharePoint admin, you will be able to change the URL for the following types of SharePoint sites: classic team sites, communication sites, and both modern team sites that are Office 365 group-connected and ones that don't belong to an Office 365 group. Change the site URL by typing the new desired site address, seeing if it's available, and clicking OK. So, for example, if you have a site named: contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/Develpment, you can rename the site to correct the incorrect spelling of "development" via the SharePoint admin center. And best of all, the service automatically-generates redirects to ensure that old links do not break.

Differential sync for all file types

Differential sync for all file types in OneDrive for Business OneDrive will synchronize large files significantly faster and considerably reduce network utilization for all file typesRoadmap ID: 33412. This means you sync only the parts of large files that have changed, not the entire file. This makes the file synchronization process faster for these files. It also reduces the time taken to upload and download a file as well as consumed bandwidth. This month we are rolling out the ability to leverage differential sync to all file types - JPEG, PDF,MOV,MP4 etc., stored in OneDrive and SharePoint. When making changes to a file, especially multi-GB files, OneDrive only syncs the changes - as shown here on a large PhotoShop document.

Custom list view formatting

Enable your makers to add “Tile views” to lists via JSON. To do this, you build a JSON object that describes the elements that are displayed when a row is loaded in a list view and any styles to be applied to those elements. View formatting does not change the data in list items; it only changes how they're displayed to users who browse the list. Columns from a SharePoint list, including associated images, can be adjusted with JSON to adhere to the new tile view card layout. Anyone who can create and manage views in a list can use view formatting to configure how views are displayed.

Bill Gates' documentary on @NetFlix (@BillGates; @gatesfoundation)

Throughout, I found it interesting that Bill is constantly taking walks (and in the documentary, you’ll see it with great cinematography as he and the director chat’stroll through the outdoors). I love the image of Bill eating dry Tang out of his palm in the wee hours in the early days, and one great telling personal item: his book tote bag – refilled with new books each week. A quick breakdown of each of the three parts (~ 50 minutes each): Pt.1 | sanitation - innovating toilets and water treatment plantsPt.2 | eradicating polioPt.3 | reducing greenhouse gases with new energy resources, plus more about Bill + Melinda’s relationship.

From Netflix: “Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates opens up about his childhood, business career and passion for improving the lives of people in the developing world.” A final thought on how good SharePoint and OneDrive will look on all the newly announced devices… There is a lot of device choice out there, and no matter which you choose, know that you’ll have a great intranet and file browse and access experience. SharePoint and OneDrive engineers, alongside dedicated designers, spend a lot of time and planning to ensure that you have the best experience and access when using one of our apps on your device of choice. And they work closely with device manufacturers to ensure a best experience possible as new devices and OSes release. The Microsoft apps are highly rated, useful tools in your pocket. Samsung plus OneDrive ensures your photos and files are synced and available across devices. Psst, still here? Still scrolling the page looking for the rolled out goodness? If so, here’s a few teasers of what’s to come to production next month…
