Content Organiser Folder Partitioning is not working on SharePoint Online Modern Experience

Question

Hi,

We are looking at using Content Organiser Folder Partitioning feature to tackle performance of Libraries with huge number of documents (in SharePoint Online). I have enabled and configured the Content Organiser as explained in https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/office/configure-the-content-organizer-to-route-documents-b0875658-69bc-4f48-addb-e3c5f01f2d9a article.

But this is not working. When the documents count threshold is reached, it does NOT create new folders?

Is there any other setting I need to configure for it to work, please?

Hi @Nanjappa, Ashwini,

I believe that this feature has been deprecated in modern experience SharePoint. But I think this can be replaced by a Power Automate flow which automatically creates a subfolder when a file is created or uploaded to a folder whose items more than a specific amount.

As this community is currently not supported Power Automate, I suggest you go to this forum: Microsoft Power Automate Community which is dedicated to it. Experts there will give you instant help.

Hope my answer helps. Thanks.
