Enable SharePoint Designer for SharePoint online site

Ramanjjilu Naidu 0

Dear Team,

I have enabled Custom Script for my SharePoint online site three days before, normally it takes 24 hours to activate SharePoint Designer. But still i am unable to see it. Any idea what went wrong, why it is not enabled? Your support would be highly appreciated, thank you.

You should enable custom script in both tenant and site level.

1.Enable in the tenant level. Go to SharePoint Online Admin center settings page -> Custom Script section -> Set "Allow users to run custom script on personal site" and "Allow users to run custom script on self-service created sites" options.

2.Enable in the site level. Run following PowerShell.

$AdminSiteURL="https://tenant-Admin.sharepoint.com"

$SiteURL="https://tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/creditpipeline"

Connect-SPOService -Url $AdminSiteURL -Credential (Get-Credential)

Set-SPOSite -Identity $SiteURL -DenyAddAndCustomizePages $False

3.SharePoint Online site -> Click Settings -> Site information -> View all Site settings -> Click SharePoint Designer Setting under Site Collection Administration -> Check Enable SharePoint Designer.

You need to first install the SharePoint Online Module before you can run the cmdlets.

And don't forget to replace the URLs with your respective SPO admin and site URL.

$AdminSiteURL=~~"https://tenant-Admin.sharepoint.com~~"

$SiteURL="~~https://tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/creditpipeline~~"
