Hi,
I’m open to new paths and ideas. My linkedin profile is here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jason-brownhill-8b9a993/

I’m not at liberty to discuss more, openly here on a public forum, but if you’re interested then get in touch.
Thanks,
Jason.

Thanks for the response Bill – I’ve heard of PnP-PowerShell, but being a novice really, I’m not sure if its something I will use at the moment.

There had been mention of a possible PnP user group session in Leicester that I’d have been keen to attend and listen intently to, but I’ve not seen or heard of anything being planned.
Jason.

Seems these forums get very little response :o/

Jason Brownhill started the topic Administration Tools for O365 in the forum General 1 year, 6 months ago

Of course there is always PowerShell, but coming from an on-premise farm to O365 I am imagining that not all the tasks will be so easy or even possible with PowerShell in Office365 that I’m able to perform on a Farm with direct server access? Or am I wrong? I’m thinking of site or library migration tasks that can/do occur often in my daily routine…[Read more]

No worries Mark – thought it prudent to highlight.

I think someone needs to review people signing up to this forum or however my email address is being used and referenced to this site, I’m getting what seems to be spam email…. it’s in my notifications/private messages on here.

Jason Brownhill started the topic Flow 'Buttons' in the forum General 1 year, 8 months ago

Read this from a tweet from Dan Holme, seems quite interesting – button flows for the mobile app (iOS & Android):

Tried about 5 flows and none of them work apart from one which blocks out my calendar. The ‘Email your manager a ‘WFH’ message’ – where is the ‘Manager’ property…[Read more]

Jason Brownhill replied to the topic Job Requriements/Expectations in the forum Offered 1 year, 8 months ago

True, but in this case they really wanted everything – no mistake about it. They asked if I’d be prepared to upskill/train towards a coding direction, maybe I’m too honest, and its not my forte anyway, so I said ‘No’ – but then then went on to proceed to ask if I had patching experience – which I have, but what developer is going to get their…[Read more]

Jason Brownhill started the topic Job Requriements/Expectations in the forum Offered 1 year, 8 months ago

So it seems companies are still looking for people who can do *everything* when it comes to recruiting people for SharePoint roles – Development, Infrastructure, Training and Support! My experience isn’t a small company with limited resources either, a world player in a certain commercial market.

Is the trend moving towards this again, or is it…[Read more]

Have since seen I’ve answered my own question :o)

Jason Brownhill replied to the topic New Libraries and Lists on 365 in the forum SharePoint 1 year, 9 months ago

Interesting thread, and I’ve come on to this one as a result of looking at another very simple issue – the ability to copy the hyperlink to a file within a library – all very easy in the classic view, but you have to go to the versions pane view of a document in the modern library view before you get the chance to copy the hyperlink to the file.…[Read more]

Jason Brownhill started the topic Document ID Feature in the forum General 1 year, 9 months ago

Does anyone know the time cycle in Office365 for the Document Feature ID activation and enablement in libraries?

I can see on premise the two timer jobs (Document ID enable/disable job & Document ID assignment job) are scheduled to run overnight, so probably need to check tomorrow.

Probably one for consideration at site creation if this feature…[Read more]

Jason Brownhill started the topic Quick Edit – Grouped Views in the forum SharePoint 1 year, 10 months ago

Anyone else come across the inability to get into quick-edit view of a library from a view that is grouped by a column/metadata? Has it been raised before?

Not a limitation for older versions of SharePoint it seems #SP2007_WIN! …but then… :o(

I’m interested in this too, specifically for day to day tasks such as moving content around between sites etc.

Thanks,

Jason Brownhill replied to the topic Office 365 Forum in the forum Help and Support 1 year, 11 months ago

I’d certainly hope so, I don’t think Teams meets the need for the whole company feed in quite the same Yammer does. Either way, it’s still an Office365 product today.

Plus there is the aspect of a setting somewhere in the admin areas to specify that Yammer is used for the discussion feed in the back-end. Doesn’t Teams do this similarly? I’m…[Read more]

Jason Brownhill started the topic Office 365 Forum in the forum Help and Support 1 year, 11 months ago

I think we’re missing a ‘Yammer’ section in there, can this be added please? I’m working a lot in this space at the moment in terms of network migration and roll out to the business and have experience to offer if people want to ask questions, I might be able to help.
Thanks,
Jason.
