Can we disable the versioning changes on the libraries and only force it from the Organization

Hi All,

I am reading about the new capabilities offered by SharePoint for "Version history" @ https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/version-overview .

now I have this question:-

Is there a way to disable those versioning settings from the library level for all libraries and all sites (current and new) ,

 

 

and only allow this to be managed from the Organization level?

 

 

or this is not supported?

Thanks

  • ArefHalmstrandyes site scripts can fix this for new sites/libraries but not for creating libraries inside exsitn sites.. but in all cases even with site scripts we can not disalbe those options

  • Hello johnjohn-Peter ,

    I like your idea. I would have liked that feature. Unfortunately, that is currently not possible to do.

    What I have seen some customers do is to build their own provisioning solution for creating sites. Within that solution, they configure necessary settings. But this would still not be good enough for when new document libraries are created.

    Yours sincerely,
    Aref Halmstrand
