Planning Guides for Sharepoint Online

Hi, 
Total noob to sharepoint online after several years with System Center. So we need to develop a new Intranet with a CMS for our company using Sharepoint online. Are there any best practice guides, or templates we can use to help in the design of a Sharepoint
Online Intranet Site? 

I know the portal of MSDN is currently lousy and looks like it is not meant for enterprise developers. (Maybe you can find something in the Office part).
However, this forum is for the UI interface Windows Forms classes, apis and components.
Try the Sharepoint forum. The easiest way to find forums is currently using Google.

  • Error while executing script for sharepoint online (office 365) - the remote server returned an error: (503) server unavailable

    error while executing script for sharepoint online (office 365) - the remote server returned an error: (503) server unavailable.
    I am creating many site collections reading records from sharepoint list using powershell in sharepoint online tenant (office 365).
    Few site collections are created and then getting above error so this error record will be skipped then few succeeding record processed then again getting error.
    pattern is like:
    success
    success
    success
    success
    Error
    success
    success
    success
    success
    success
    success
    error
    success

    Hi,
    As it is an online environment, to troubleshoot this issue in an easier way, I suggest you contact Office 365 Support to see if there is any useful information in
    the log files in the server side:

  • Is there a way to create a plan guide for this query?

    How can i create a plan guide for this query，suppose i can't change the query text:
    USE AdventureWorks2008R2;
    GO
    SET NOCOUNT ON;
    GO
    -- query plan statement starts
    DECLARE @Group nvarchar(50), @Sales money;
    SET @Group = N'North America';
    SET @Sales = 2000000;
    SET NOCOUNT OFF;
    SELECT FirstName, LastName, SalesYTD
    FROM Sales.vSalesPerson
    WHERE TerritoryGroup = @Group and SalesYTD >= @Sales;
    -- query plan statement ends
    AdventureWorks2008R2's parameterization option is simple, i want this type of query can reuse plan:
    DECLARE @Group nvarchar(50), @Sales money;
    SET @Group = N'Other Country';
    SET @Sales = 88;
    SET NOCOUNT OFF;
    SELECT FirstName, LastName, SalesYTD
    FROM Sales.vSalesPerson
    WHERE TerritoryGroup = @Group and SalesYTD >= @Sales;
    I tried many times ,but it didn't work:
    declare @xml nvarchar(max) -- the plan i want to reuse
    set @xml = (select cast (query_plan as nvarchar(max)) 
    from sys.dm_exec_query_plan (0x060006001464570B405D92620200000001000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000))
    -- create plan guide 
    exec sp_create_plan_guide 
    @name ='Test'
    ,@stmt=N'SELECT FirstName, LastName, SalesYTD
    FROM Sales.vSalesPerson
    WHERE TerritoryGroup = @Group and SalesYTD >= @Sales;'
    ,@type =N'sql'
    ,@params =N'@Group nvarchar(50), @Sales money'
    ,@hints = @xml;
    Thanks.

    I guess you don't wanna fire these queries "adhoc" but prepared instead to reuse the plan:
    exec sp_executesql N'SELECT FirstName, LastName, SalesYTD FROM Sales.vSalesPerson WHERE TerritoryGroup = @Group and SalesYTD >= @Sales',
    N'@Group nvarchar(50), @Sales money', N'Other Country',88
    exec sp_executesql N'SELECT FirstName, LastName, SalesYTD FROM Sales.vSalesPerson WHERE TerritoryGroup = @Group and SalesYTD >= @Sales',
    N'@Group nvarchar(50), @Sales money', N'North America',2000000

  • The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive..Exception.Message - while executing powershell command for sharepoint online site

    " +The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive..Exception.Message " OR sometimes
    "The remote server returned an error: (503) Server Unavailable..Exception.Message"
    Getting exception above when performing various operation (site coll creating, group creation, adding users to group) for sharepoint online (Office 365) site using powershell script.
    I want to create 3500 site collections using PS script. In-between getting above exception so it will skip one site collection creating and working again. for eg. after creating 11 site coll, script will through above exception and so 12th site coll will
    not be create but working fine from 13 and so on...

    Remote server seems working to me...any additional check?
    if problem with remote server then may be loop to create site provisioning should not start again..Right?

  • Error trying to create App for SharePoint Online

    I'm trying to create my first app for SharePoint Online using Visual Studio 2012. I believe I have all of the pre-reqs installed/configured. I have created a dev site in our SharePoint Online environment. I am a Site Collection administrator for that site.
    When I open VS2012, and try to create a new app project, it prompts me to connect to my dev site. When I enter the URL for that site, it give me the following login:
    We use ADFS, so when I enter my email address, it redirects me to my organizations federated login:
    Once I login, it takes me to the screen that reads "Error: An error has occurred on the server" with the standard SharePoint correlation id.
    I can't seem to get past this, and it won't let me start the new app project. Any thoughts on how to proceed?
    Thanks in advance,

    Here is the correlation error screen for reference:

  • Brand/ Remove Office 365 Login Page for SharePoint Online

    Hi  there,
    HAPPY NEW YEAR!
    Thank you very much for setting up this great forum. I have learned a lot of good tips from here.
    We have a challenge which we would like to find a solution to.
    We are using Project Online with SharePoint Online with Office 365.
    We are trying to find a solution to brand/ (if branding is not possible) get rid of the Office 365 log in page.
    What we are trying to achieve is:
    1. Users click on a link, say:
    https://abc.sharepoint.com/project1/
    2. Instead of seeing Office 365 login page, we would like them to be able to see the login page with our own brand or a login box to enter username and password.
    Thank you very much in advance for the time you set aside to share your knowledge with us.
    Sincerely, we really appreciate your kind help.

    Hi Charlotte,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to customize the Office 365 login page for SharePoint Online.
    We can implement ADFS for the Office 365 subscription, then customize the ADFS forms based on login page.
    Per my knowledge, If no ADFS you will need to use the Microsoft login page.
    Here are two similar threads for you to take a look at:

    Any way to get all users's user profile proeprty using CSOM c# for sharepoint online - office 365?

    Since CSOM provides methods for operations related to people per
    user scope, you could retrieve all site users first using SP.Web.siteUsers
    property. and then use SP.UserProfiles.PeopleManager.getUserProfilePropertyFor
    Method to get property.

  • Is there anyway I can fetch Audit reports for SharePoint Online programmatically ?

    SPAudit, SPAuditEntryCollection all of these are available only On Premise.Is there any endpoint or Powershell scripting available to get these reports for SharePoint Online?

    Hi,
    Seems that the Audit related dlls are still not include in
    SharePoint Online Client Components SDK yet.
    Thus, I would suggest you submit a feedback to the Office Developer Platform if there any expectation about the future version of Office 365 API:
    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.

  • Customization approach as per best practice for SharePoint Online

    Hi All,
    I am working for a customer for customization on SharePoint Online. I need to create following customization.
    For each department one site collection is required to be created. There will be 15 site collections.
    Each site collection will have couple of team sites.
    Each team will have couple of document libraries and customer list.
    Custom lists and document libraries will have custom views.
    MaterPage and Layout will be customized to apply the UI Branding.
    Customer wants that configuration management should be as per the Microsoft best practice. I am wondering what the approach I should use is.
    Should I create visual studio solution, but since there are 15 different site collections are required to be created I believe sandboxed solution will not be feasible sine sandboxed solution are scoped with site collection.
    I also believe if I do create visual studio solution that development efforts will be extensive.
    I am not sure whether it is feasible, use the SharePoint Designer to apply this customization but I am confused in this case. If it is possible then how I will promote the customization to production.
    I am also confused in case SharePoint online how I will keep production and development environment separate? What is the best practice around it?

    Hi,
    You can create Custom Master page using SharePoint Designer. And for first four points from creating Sitecollection to creating views you can create a hierarchy of objects in site using csv file and then create Powershell script to create sitecollection,
    team site, list/libraries and view by reading csv files.

  • Change default language for SharePoint Online Sub-Site

    Hi Guys,
    Am trying to create multiple sub-sites using a custom site template in SharePoint Online. The default language of the Site Template is English. But I want to create sites for difference languages.
    There is a option to setup multiple languages on the site and change the browser preferences. But we want that anyone irrespective of the language, should see the site in the language it has been configured for, For instance France site should display data
    in French irrespective of any user see it.
    To accomplish this, I was trying to find if there is a way to change the default language of the site after we create it.
    Can some one give me an idea if we can achieve this behavior or if there an alternate to do it ?
    Thanks,
    Nutan

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to change the default site language.
    There is no supported way to change the default language of a site collection, once it has been created.
    There is a way to change it by modifying the content database using SQL Management Studio(though it is not supported), you can refer to the article below to change the default language in an existed site.
