Governor Sharing

Summary

SPFx WebPart shows documents which have been (explicitly) shared within a SharePoint site or Team.

It does this by using the following steps:

  • Issuing a Search Query (KQL) against the Graph API to retrieve documents where the managed property SharedWithUsersOWSUSER contains a value
  • Iterate through the result of the search query to get the permissions (e.g. sharing information) per file (/permissions endpoint of driveItems on GraphAPI)
  • Show the results in a ShimmeredDetailsList and the Pagination control for paging the results
  • By selecting a document and clicking on the Sharing Settings button will open the Manage Access pane for further review of the sharing

Here is an example with a list of shared documents, with a clear distinction when they are shared with external users (notice the tooltip & icon in front of the document) Example Image

When you want to know more about the sharing settings of a particular document, you can select the document and then click on the ==Sharing Settings<== button, this will open up the Manage Access page for the selected document which tells you that a sharing link was created for the external user.

Minimal Path to Awesome

  • Clone this repository
  • Move to right solution folder
  • in the command line run:
    • npm install
    • gulp serve

SharePoint App Deployment

Prerequisites

  • A copy of the solution .sppkg package.
  • The user deploying an app must be a SharePoint Administrator or Global Administrator in Microsoft 365.
  • The same user needs to approve and provide consent for the API permissions (this to call the Graph Search endpoint).

Step 1 - Add the app to the SharePoint App catalog

Follow the steps below to add the app to the SharePoint App catalog:

  • Go to More features in the SharePoint admin center, and sign in with an account that has the SharePoint Administrator or Global Administrator for your organization.
  • Under Apps, select Open. If you didnt have an app catalog before, it might take a few minutes to load.

Manage Apps

  • On the Manage apps page, click Upload, and browse to location for the app package. The package file should have .sppkg extension.
  • Select Enable this app and add it to all sites. This will automatically add the app to the sites, so that site owners will not need to do it themselves. Uncheck the box Add to Teams. If you want to add the App to Teams, you need to follow these instructions. Click Enable app at the bottom of the side panel.

Enable app

After the API is Enable you will need to provide consent. For this step you need the Global Administrator role. You will provide delegated permissions that will allow the application to act on a user's behalf. The application will never be able to access anything the signed in user themselves couldn't access. To learn more about delegated permissions see: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity-platform/permissions-consent-overview#types-of-permissions

  • Click on Go to the API access page.

Step 3 - Adding the app to a SharePoint site

  • On the site where you want to use the app go to a page and open it for editing or create a new page for this purpose.
  • Click on the "+" to add a new web part and search for "Governor sharing". Click on it to add it to the page.

  • The user deploying the app must be a Teams Administrator or Global Administrator in Microsoft 365.

Step 1 - Add the app to Teams App Catalog

Troubleshooting

If you face any other errors, you can enable the debugging mode from the configuration pane. When this is enabled, there is a lot more details being outputted to the written to the console.

  • In green you see the search (KQL) query what is used to retrieve documents
  • In yellow, you see the search results
  • In blue, you see the transformation of combining the searchresults and the permission calls

Debug

Known errors

Issue: We can't upload the app because there's already an app in the catalog with the same app ID. To upload a new app, change the app ID and try again. To update an existing app, go to the app details page.

Solution: Delete the app in the Teams Apps overview and re-add the package.

More information about deleting apps in Teams can found here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/teams-custom-app-policies-and-settings#delete-custom-apps-from-your-organizations-catalog
