    Can someone @microsoft confirm this approach to be valid? Looks to me the right way to do it for business who can't wait forever : https://www.spjeff.com/2018/12/31/video-create-modern-communication-for-root-site-in-tenant/

    Please provide a REAL durable link functionality that support files being moved anywhere in SharePoint. And also provide a real MOVE functionality that is not implemented using a copy & delete.
    This lack of crucial features and low vote rate let me think that SharePoint is not really being used as a real, solid EDMS system. Wake Up Microsoft or at least let us know where you are going with this.

    Is someone at Microsoft can give an answer on this one? This requirement has been posted more than a year ago…. The feature is a must for international organizations wanting to use modern experience.

    As of March 2019, this feature should be available to 50% of users in Targeted Release. The rollout to all users is continuing, but there are several features included together in this one and we’ve paused the rollout a few times to accomodate changes based on feedback to the other features. New ETA for reaching all users is April 2019.

    Note this feature will only apply to modern doclib and list UX in SharePoint Online

    We should also have the possibility to disable the information panel metadata editing. When using PowerApps with list to do metadata entries, the information panel gives to possibility to bypass PowerApps that could integrate validation logic. I think this could be implement using the "Launch forms in a dialog" list/library advanced options, where "Yes" would force to use the form and disable the metadata update using the information panel. Customizing forms with PowerApps is also supposed to be available for library...

    Metadata entry in modern page is a non sense. When you open the information panel for a document/list item and edit the properties, each property that you update increment your version number (so when you add a new document, if you have 4 properties to fill out, the version number will start at 5. Completly ridiculous!). If you use the "edit all" option, you need to be very carefull when filling out the properties because if you click outside the properties pane, the panel will close and you will loose your properties updates. This is very frustrating for end user if one of your property is a description and loose the info because you click outside the panel. This add up to other user comments in this thread and there are other issues with modern experience for metadata entry but I will stop here. So my question is: What is all this mess with the modern experience? How come there are not more complaints (are the 100 billons users licenced are really using modern experience with SharePoint libraries? I guess not… so probably why Microsoft is doing nothing about this…). This is unacceptable. Period.

    Thanks for your feedback! Just a note to let you know that we’re building your suggestion now. We do apologize for the delay on getting this moving, but we are now working on exposing term store operation properly with REST API/Microsoft Graph. We will be covering any updates on the API status, before the actual release, in the SharePoint Dev community calls. Thanks, everyone for your input around this capability.

    Martin Coupal commented  · 

    More than a year for this BIG hole in the SharePoint REST API. This would be understandable if people where not really using term store but I don't think that is the case....

    Just wondering why voting is closed... I really don't understand why it is not a top priority. This is so obvious that it is a requirement for SharePoint to use customers, products data for metadata. If they don't provide an OOB Common Data Service column type they should at least provide the ability to connect with BCS (Business Connectivity Service). I'm probably missing something here. I would give all my vote for this...

    We are continuing to make our large list experiences better, please keep the feedback coming.

    Spring 2018 update:
    - We now support being able to manually add indexes to lists of any size (increased from lists up to 20,000 items previously).
    - Starting with the February release of the Office 365 Excel client, you will be able to export your full list instead of getting cut off part of the way through.

    What we are working on now:
    - Predictive indexing will start to work for lists larger than 20,000 items so your views will automatically cause the right indexes to be added to your lists.

    In our backlog:
    - Being able to index/sort/filter by lookup column types (like person, lookup or managed metadata columns) without being throttled.
    - Making sure that our REST APIs support querying in ways that will guarantee that the call will not be throttled.

    For…

    Why not enhance and leverage the search engin? You should provide a way to create list/library views based on search and scoped to the list where the results would be presented in a similar layout than a list view (ECB menu etc.).There should be a way to provide real-time search results by using a kind of event driven indexing. This would probably be easier than change how sharepoint stores list data in SQL.

    With the modern UI, when editing item properties of a managed metadata column, the term set dialog provide the ability to add new item even if the column "Allow Fill-in" is set to no (and term set is open).

    This is a must and should be used by the PnP Provisioning engine.
