SharePoint Governance Gaps
Organizations struggle to govern, scale, and maintain SharePoint/OneDrive environments, leading to permission sprawl, sync failures, storage bloat, and migration pain.
In their words
What is the best solution you've found to storage archived data and still be able to access it?
Making users key in manually the source and destinations for 100s of tasks is ridiculous
to get it to autosave to SharePoint would be great, rather having the team manually upload the recordings to SharePoint (not very reliable and quite time consuming)
I'm looking into tools to manage requests for new sites, Teams, and lifecycle management (provisioning, ownership, expiration/archival, etc.).
people are taking stuff offline and our files aren't updated because they can't use these folders the way they need to
I refuse to spend 80,000$+ on solving this problem, and I want it done yesterday.
who else has seen a user with nearly 120,000 files and over 15,000 folders in OneDrive?
SP is starting to feel like the wrong tool for this
we were unable to find a way to do this... it seems this is an intentional limitation of GDAP by Microsoft
Our solution right now is for each of the field offices to text the main office an OK when they send the report so there's no overlap until I can get this figured out.
would I see much of a capacity/billing benefit by switching from the Upsert Copy Job in step 2 of the pipeline, to a mirrored Sharepoint List instead?
Will those who cannot set a label on a file in such a site be denied the ability to share documents externally?
the modern alternative is to set up a MS Power Automate flow to watch the folder and send alerts. Which to me seems a bit clunkier in initial setup
we would write to a file, the service would respond with success, but then when we read the file, it shows the old cached value, not the new one we just WROTE!
SharePoint admins and IT
Where they talk
- r/sharepoint
- r/sysadmin
- r/microsoft_365_copilot
- r/Office365
- r/microsoft365
- r/MicrosoftFabric
- r/copilotstudio
- r/PowerBI
Tools they use today
- SharePoint
- OneDrive
- Power Automate
- PowerShell
- Excel
- Microsoft Teams
- Copilot
- Microsoft 365
Why those fall short
- Microsoft only allows blocking creation, no granular governance controls
- sync client chokes, search incomplete, path length limits, explorer slowness
- Permissions don't translate; sync chokes on large libraries; no usage data pre-move
- SharePoint is useless at answering who has access to anything in a site
- no per-department sites, permissions tangled, no visibility into who has access
