Managed metadata

Question

Hello Guys

I have a Teams on which I want to add a colum with managed metadata from a Term store

Questions

is it possible to add (and How) tags directly from Teams or shall we always open sharepoint

on SP it is mandatory to open grid to add Tags (I can not add it on the details part)y

at least do you know how either to set a Search center site to filter tags at the root of the Teams or to refine search with facets/ categories?

Many thanks in advance for your answer

Hi Marina,

Good day.

I hope you're doing great today.

May I know if you have time to check the information I provided?

About search, no need to change the search results page to target the site as normally if you applied this managed properties only to this Teams Site and you do search using the managed properties, it will only give you the results from the Teams site. Properties are being crawled and indexed once applied to documents and items.

If you wish to do have different search behavior, I would suggest you to create new search page and not modify the default search page.

1. Click on Settings > site contents.
2. Click on Pages > New page.
3. Click on settings upper right > click on Edit page.
4. Search Results Left side click arrow down then click Edit Webpart.

Hope the suggestion help you. Thank you for your kind understanding.

Dear Marina,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

I understand that you have query on how to add column with Managed Metadata from Term Store into Teams. I did the testing and we need to open it on SharePoint in order to input the Managed Metadata. If we set the column as required column then we can put the tags or the Manage Metadata within the Teams as we will be prompted Required info.

After clicking on the required info the option on the right side will show then you can update the Managed Metadata.

This is not advisable as required column will affect the sync process if users are syncing the library using OneDrive sync client. The files will have green lock icon because required columns can only be updated and modified online.

This is expected behavior that we can only update the columns information on SharePoint as the data are being stored and crawled in SharePoint and not in Teams.

I would suggest you to submit a feedback at https://feedbackportal.microsoft.com/ for this feature.

About the search center site to filter the tags/Managed Meta at the root of the Teams or refine search with facets/categories, I will need to check if it is advisable to do this in Search Center Site to target specific site using Managed Metadata keyword.

Thank you so much for your kind understanding. Stay safe and healthy always.
