SharePoint Lists & Libraries : Use smart filters to find your file or list item

Marcel

Source : https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Use-smart-filters-to-find-your-file-or-list-item-293561ed-fb2e-4fb2-9a9f-8a21e299e323?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US

Smart filters can help you find the file or list item you’re looking for. When you make a filter selection, items that don’t match are removed from the list shown on the page.

NOTE: Some functionality is introduced gradually to organizations that have opted in to the First Release program. If you’re not enrolled in the First Release program, you may not see this feature.

Open the smart filters pane

Click the filter icon  at the top right of your list or library to open the smart filter pane. The filters you see are based on the contents displayed on the page.

For document libraries, 3 default filters show: Modified, People and Type. You can narrow the list to recent files only. You can filter your view to files edited by one or more people. And, you can change your view to show files of one or more types, like Word documents and PowerPoint slides.

When you’ve filtered the list or library and want to go back to where you started, click the clear filter icon at the top right of the smart filter pane.

Smart filters, column headers and views

Smart filters work together with SharePoint features you may already be familiar with like column headers and views. When you choose a filter from a column header menu, you’ll see that reflected in the smart filter pane. And, it works the same way in reverse. Selections from the smart filter pane show in the column headers.

Views are a way of saving filters. When you’ve found a set of smart filters you think you’d use often, you can save them as a view.

More help for lists and libraries

SharePoint help contains many more articles that cover Documents and libraries and Data and lists.

Use PowerShell to manage Office 365 Groups – Admin help

Marcel

Groups in Office 365 are intended to be created and managed by admin and end users. If you, the global administrator, need to perform bulk operations, configure global settings, or want to monitor Group activity from the command line, you can use Windows PowerShell and the following cmdlets to accomplish those tasks. Check out Learn more about groups for more information about groups in Office 365.

Share files or folders in Office 365

The Office 365 files and folders you store in OneDrive for Business are private until you decide to share them. Similarly, in a team site library, you may want to share specific files or folders with people who don’t otherwise have access to the site. When you share files and folders, you can decide whether to let people edit or just view them.

NOTE: You may also be able share files with external users (people not on your network) by inviting them as “Guests,” or by creating and posting guest links. For details, see Share sites or documents with people outside your organization.

Share a file by using Get a link

You can share a link to a file that others can also share by using Get a link. Get a link is available only for individual files, but it’s the easiest way to share files with everyone in your organization or to share with people externally (as long as external sharing is enabled for your sites).

  1. Go to OneDrive for Business or the site library that has the file you want to share.
  2. Right-click the file you want to share, and then select Get a link. If you don’t see Get a link, click Share, and then click Get a link.Screenshot of Sharing a document by using Get a link
  3. Choose the type of link you want to create.Screenshot of choosing a linkLinks for internal sharing:
    • Edit link – account required After they sign in, people in your organization can edit, copy, or download the file.
    • View link – account required After they sign in, people in your organization can view, copy, or download the file.

    Guest links:

    • Edit link – no sign-in required People outside your organization can edit, copy, and download the file.
    • View link – no sign-in required People outside your organization can view, copy, and download the file.

    NOTES: If you see only a restricted link option instead of the options shown here, sharing links may be disabled or you may not have permission to use them. For information about how to enable sharing, see Video: Share a site without access request.

    If guest access is disabled, you’ll see only account required options.

  4. If you choose a no sign-in required link and you want to set the link to expire, click Set expiration, and then choose how long before the link expires, such as 30 days. Account required links don’t expire and there’s no option to set an expiration for those links.Screenshot of Setting an Expiration for a guest link
  5. Click Copy to copy the link to the clipboard.
  6. Paste the link into an email and send it or post it on a website for the people you want share with.

NOTES:

  • Links created by using Get a link are not discoverable by search, so only people who receive a link from someone else can use it.
  • Account required links are designed for sharing within your organization. Therefore, recipients need to sign in with their user name and password from your organization. When a user opens the sharing link, she is granted permissions for that item and added to the access control list.
  • No sign-in required links are guest links that are ideal for external sharing. These links are available by default in Office 365, but administrators can disable external sharing for your sites. For details, see Share sites or documents with people outside your organization.
  • You can remove no sign-in required links at any time in the Share dialog box mentioned in the steps above. The REMOVElink is right next to the Copy button.
  • Site administrators can restrict sharing so that only owners can share files and sites. For information about how to enable sharing links, see Video: Share a site without access request.

  4. Select a permission setting, such as Can edit.Select a permission setting for people invited to share a document
  5. If you want, type a message to be included with an email that’s sent to all invitees. The email includes a link to the shared file.
  6. If you don’t want to send an email, uncheck Send an email invitation (you may need to click Show Options first).
  7. Click Share.

NOTE: If guest access is disabled, you may not see the Require sign-in option.

Other ways to share a file or folder with everyone in your organization

In OneDrive for Business, there are more ways to share a file with everyone:

  • Use the Share dialog box. Follow the same steps described above for share a file or folder, but type Everyone in the Invite People box.Share a document with everyone using the Share dialog box
  • Create a “Shared with Everyone” folder (or one with a similar name) and place files in that folder as you create them. To create a folder, click New > Folder. You can share the folder with people as you create it.Shared with Everyone folder in OneDrive for Business

NOTE: You may already have a Shared with Everyone folder that was provisioned for you.

The Share dialog box lets you select Everyone except external users. If your organization allows external sharing, sharing with “Everyone” includes external users: people outside of your organization who have previously been invited to share files as guests, either by you or by others in your organization.

If you have a Shared with Everyone folder that was provisioned for you, everyone gets permission to edit documents that you put in the Shared with Everyone folder, unless you change the permission setting or unless your OneDrive for Business was created before June 2014. If your OneDrive for Businesswas created before that date, the Shared with Everyone folder started with View-only permissions. You can change the permission setting any time by following the instructions for sharing a folder earlier in this article.

How do people find files I’ve shared with everyone?

Files you share with everyone don’t appear in their Shared with Me view in OneDrive for Business. Why not? Consider that depending on the size of your organization, there might be hundreds if not thousands of files that are shared with everyone. Also, you may not want to send a share invitation email to everyone in your organization.

Instead, people can find these files by:

  • Following a link you send them directly in an email.You can find any file’s web URL in its file callout.
    A document's web URLCopy and paste the URL into an email addressed to specific people you want to notify.
  • Using their Search box in OneDrive for Business.In this example, Molly Dempsey searches on the keyword “Court Cases” to find any relevant files shared with her in her organization.Search keywords to look for documents people have shared with you
