Unleashing SharePoint List Data Extraction with PowerShell

Extracting SharePoint list data to CSV via PowerShell is genuinely simple for a small list — the part that trips people up is the connection method that’s since been removed, and the list-view threshold that silently breaks the simple version of this script once a list crosses 5,000 items. This post covers the current, working […]

Streamlining SharePoint Add-In Installation with PowerShell

Worth leading with directly, since it changes what this post can actually be about: the classic SharePoint Add-in model — what this post originally covered — is fully retired. Microsoft deprecated it in November 2023 and it stopped functioning in any tenant as of April 2, 2026, with no extension. Any script built around installing

Navigating the Maze: Unraveling Common Issues with SharePoint

Most “common SharePoint issues” round-ups stop at “here’s a category, here’s generic advice” — permissions are hard, versioning is confusing, performance can be slow. That’s true and not very actionable. This post is organized the other way: symptom first, then the specific, verifiable cause, then where to actually go for the full fix rather than

Designing a Modern SharePoint Site: Elevate User Experience and Collaboration

“Modern SharePoint site design” covers more ground than one post can usefully hold, so this one stays narrow: the page-composition layer — the web parts, navigation, and personalization choices that actually shape what a visitor sees and clicks. For the step-by-step of creating and configuring a site in the first place, see A Comprehensive Guide

Power Automate: Streamlining Workflows for Efficiency and Productivity

Power Automate is included, in a limited form, with most Microsoft 365 plans — which is exactly why the licensing side trips people up. “Included” only covers standard connectors; the moment a flow touches Dataverse, a premium connector, or scheduled RPA, that’s a separate paid tier, and the way that tier gets triggered isn’t always

How to Send an HTTP Request in SharePoint via JavaScript

Plain fetch() or XMLHttpRequest work fine for hitting SharePoint’s REST API — the part that’s actually SharePoint-specific isn’t the HTTP call itself, it’s the headers: an Accept header SharePoint’s OData implementation expects, and a request digest token required on anything that isn’t a GET. In this post: A GET request: fetching list items · A

Start your SharePoint with SPFX

SPFx (SharePoint Framework) is Microsoft’s current framework for building client-side web parts and extensions with TypeScript and React. The basic shape of getting started hasn’t changed, but two real pieces of the toolchain have — the build tooling and the way you test locally — and a lot of “getting started” guides still show the

SharePoint Online Modern Script Editor and Its Consequences

Modern SharePoint has no equivalent of the classic Script Editor web part — that’s a deliberate security decision, not a missing feature. Custom script is blocked by default on every modern site, and the workarounds people reach for come with real governance consequences that go beyond “test your code first.” This post covers what’s actually

o365 SharePoint Online and File Sync Limitations

SharePoint Online syncs through the same OneDrive sync client as a personal OneDrive account, so a lot of the numbers overlap — for storage quotas, sharing controls, and version history, see OneDrive Cloud and Sync Limitations. This post covers the piece that’s specific to SharePoint document libraries: file and folder naming rules, what actually gets
