How to branding Social/Sites.aspx in SharePoint online

Hi everyone,
I need to branding: https://contoso-my.sharepoint.com/personal/dev01_contoso_onmicrosoft_com/Social/Sites.aspx.
I use SharePoint designer to open the site: https://contoso-my.sharepoint.com/personal/dev01_contoso_onmicrosoft_com then go to All Files/Social/Sites.aspx and founded this page is using custom.master (MasterPageFile="~masterurl/custom.master").
I have change it to my direct master page: MasterPageFile="~sitecollection/_catalogs/masterpage/seattle.master" and it works.
So I can create another master page based on seatle.master and add/edit my custom html,css. But I'm wondering that the Sites.aspx is different for each users. How can I make the same for every users?
Thanks for your support.
Duy Vo

Can someone help me, please?

How to set custom master page for social/sites.aspx in sharepoint 2013.?
File path is

Thanks in advance

Hi,
You could open the sites.aspx in Notepad or SharePoint designer, and set the master page to your own master page directly via editing:
<%@ Page language="C#" MasterPageFile="~masterurl/custom.master" Inherits="Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.WebControls.FollowedContentWebPartPage,Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal,Version=15.0.0.0,Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c"

Waiting for an response at the earlier.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Badri,
1.You could not restore site deleted from SharePoint designer in site collection, you can only restore the site deleted from
UI in site collection recycle bin, deleted from end user recycle bin.
2.You can export the site from production server, then import it to test server.

Using microsoft.sharepoint.client.search.analytics to report the monthly hit count of site collections on SharePoint Online

Is it possible to use microsoft.sharepoint.client.search.analytics to report the monthly hit count of site collections on SharePoint Online.
GetHitCountForDay()
GetHitCountForMonth()
If yes, how can this be called and executed successfully from a Console application using the Client Object Model.

Building Site Collections in SharePoint Online

Hello all,
Please forgive me for this very basic question, but I was not able to find the info online.
Background info: I have a great deal of experience with SharePoint administration on-prem but not much experience with SharePoint Online. My current organization has O365 and wants to build a collaboration environment and an Intranet. I understand the information
architecture practices that would have been common for this for an on-prem environment, and I understand that those have changed with 2013 and SharePoint Online due to the new practice of organizing everything under one web app.
Between reading some articles and using my experience with on-prem, I am trying to design an organized information architecture that will facilitate both environments and the permissions structures they require. My tentative plan was to build one site collection
for the Intranet under https://mycompany.sharepoint.com/sites (under which subsites would be built for various Intranet divisions), and then a number of individual site collections for the collaboration environment under https://mycompany.sharepoint.com/teams
(/hr, /finance, etc., so that content owners and users could work in their own site collection without affecting a site collection belonging to someone else).
This is the article that initially caused me to believe that this is possible/a good idea: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/richard_dizeregas_blog/archive/2014/09/01/sharepoint-online-information-architecture-considerations.aspx.
"For [managed paths] you get the root, /search (explicit managed path), /sites (wildcard managed path), and /teams (wildcard managed path)."
However this article leads me to believe that I will not be allowed to create any site collections at all, only subsites: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Plan-sites-and-manage-users-8e568d8d-3d65-42c4-99fa-f7285c9db842.
"You cannot create additional site collections in SharePoint Online for Office 365 for Small Business."
I understand the answer to this may depend on what version of O365 we have, and I am working to find that out.
My understanding is that I cannot be made a SharePoint Online administrator without being a global O365 administrator: http://blogs.technet.com/b/lystavlen/archive/2012/06/14/understanding-the-administrator-role-in-sharepoint-online.aspx.
"You cannot separate the roles of Office 365 global administrator and SharePoint Online Administrator."
Thus, I don't currently have the level of access I need to browse around the administration area and find the answers to my questions that way. When the time comes, I will likely be given temporary access or will be working with an O365 global administrator
to build.
Main question: Will I be allowed to build site collections under managed paths?
Larger question: How are others managing the information architecture for an Intranet and a Collaboration environment in SharePoint Online, especially if the answer to the prior question is no?
Thanks in advance for any insight you can offer.

Hi,
According to the error message, the Microsoft.Online.SharePoint.Client.Tenant.dll seems not been loaded.
You can find it in the path below:

Backup - Restore process of a Site Collection in SharePoint Online

Hi, I have a couple of questions.
1) What do I have to do to get a backup-restore of a site collection in SharePoint Online?
2) Can I myself perform a backup-restore or just backup a site collection without using any 3rd party tool?
Any inputs on these will be helpful. Thanks in advance!

Hi,
what you can instead of backup and restore site is to save it as template, check this thread

Authoring and Publishing site collection in SharePoint Online

Hi ,
Can we have multiple authoring and publishing site collection in SharePoint Online?
Thanks, Kaviya (Please remember to click “Mark as Answer” on the post that helps you)

Yes you can use SharePoint 2013 cross-site publishing feature in SharePoint Online to support 1:1 and 1:n set up of authoring : publishing site-collections in SharePoint Online. The catch is that it all needs to be within same tenant.

How can I send an email from Sharepoint Online using sandbox solution?

How can I send an email from Sharepoint Online using sandbox solution?
If possible I do not want to use workflow.
Is It possible to do it without using workflow?

hello Steven Andrews,
when any user sends a message using contact us page in SharePoint online.
1. We are inserting item in Contact Us List . - This is working fine
for anonymous users also. We have used Office365 anonymous codeplex wsp and it is working fine. Anonymous user is able to insert new record in the Contact Us List.
2. Once, new record is inserted in Contact Us list, we want to fire email notifying thanks to the user on his email id as well as to our company x person for notification of new inquiry.
We tried using Workflow having impersonation step for anonymous user but it is not working for Anonymous users. Workflow is able to sent the email if someone logged into system but not working for Anonymous user although workflow is getting started
but not able to send email although used Imperonsation step.
We are stuck into implementing second step.

Cross domain call to Azure ASPX from SharePoint Online Site Collection

We have a ASPX page hosted on Azure that is creating a Zip of documents from a SharePoint Document Library against IDs that we are passing it through query string. Next we are flushing this ZIP as a download response to the client
browser so that user can save it somewhere on his machine. This is working as expected.
Next we are calling this ASPX from our SharePoint Online Site Collection. Sometime it takes time to create the ZIP & return to the client and therefore we want to implement a Progress Image showing something is happening at the server. We
have used window.open() method to call this ASPX and at the same time we are showing up the Progress Image. But due to same origin policy we are not able to track any window specific events in Internet Explorer to close the Progress Image when the response
returns to the client.
Please suggest a suitable workaround for this scenario. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance!
Jitendra

Hi Jitendra,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to call a aspx page hosted on Azure from SharePoint Online site and implement a progress image to show the progress happening at the server.
In your scenario, if you want to call the aspx page on Azure to create zip and return to the client, the better way is createing a web service and call it in clinet side. You can add the progress status in the custom code and then judge the status to
show correponding progress image.

How to upload local files to Offices365 SharePoint Online Site by C# Code?

Hi all,
I've some requirement needs to upload files from local to Office365 Sharepoint Online Site Document Library using C# code?
public static void upload()
Uri uri = new Uri("siteurl");
ClientContext context = new ClientContext(uri);
var passWord = new SecureString();
foreach (var c in "password") passWord.AppendChar(c);
context.Credentials = new SharePointOnlineCredentials("email", passWord);
Web web = context.Web;
FileCreationInformation newFile = new FileCreationInformation();
newFile.Content = System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(@"C:\myfile.txt");
newFile.Url = "file uploaded via client OM.txt";
List docs = web.Lists.GetByTitle("Documents");
Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.File uploadFile = docs.RootFolder.Files.Add(newFile);
context.ExecuteQuery();
I don't know whether this method works and I'm always get issue for getting the ClientContext.
Thanks for your reply.

Please try below.
public void SaveFileToSharePoint(string fileName)
using (var context = new ClientContext("https://mydomain.com/"))
var passWord = new SecureString();
foreach (var c in "MyPassword") passWord.AppendChar(c);

Change Email Sender[Site Name] of Sharepoint Online Workflow

Is there any way to change the name of the Sender to List name rather than Site Name of a workflow that sends email?
Please see screenshots below for guidance.
The email from the workflow shows that the email came from ISO Manuals, but I want to change it to the list name sample EMS Manuals which the item is located and the workflow is running through that particular list item.
Site Name - ISO Manuals
Lists Name - EMS Manuals
Engineering Manuals
Agri Manuals
This is the sample email generated from Workflow.
Please help.
Best Regards,
Ching

Is there any REST API to get all the Site and site Collections from Sharepoint Online

Hi,
I have one SharePoint Online tenant. We are using REST API to integrate SharePoint to our internal System.
For my use case I need to get all the SharePoint sites ans Sitecollections. From each SiteCollection I need all the subsites under this.
I have used below REST Query
http://<Base site url>/_api/web
This doesn't give me all the Site collections
Could any one please give me some way to get all the Site collections and sites from my sharepoint tenant through REST API.
Thanks,

Hi Abhiram,
There seems no such endpoint in SharePoint REST API can retrieve a list of site collections in a SharePoint Online tenant:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/jj860569.aspx#Reference
If Client Object Model can be an option for you, you can use Tenant object to achieve what you want:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/24050.perform-basic-admin-operations-using-csom-in-sharepoint-online.aspx#Scenario_3_Fetch_All_Site_Collections
Anyway, I would suggest you submit a feedback to the Office Developer Platform if there any expectation about the future version of REST API of Office 365 SharePoint
Online:
http://officespdev.uservoice.com/
It
is a place for customers provide feedback about Microsoft Office products. What’s more, if a feedback is high voted there by other customers, it will be promising that Microsoft
Product Team will take it into consideration when designing the next version in the future.
