Supercharge Your SharePoint Administration: Unleashing the Power of Self-Service and Request Service Models (Updated)

In the realm of SharePoint Online and modern SharePoint, governance plays a crucial role. A recent video titled "01 Basic Governance within SharePoint | SharePoint Admins Governance" provides an in-depth exploration of this topic, focusing on two main governance categories: self-service and request service.

The video discusses the differences between these two models. Self-service allows users to leverage out-of-the-box site requests or site creation, while request service requires users to request site creation. While Microsoft tends to favor self-service by default, the video suggests that this may not be the best approach for all organizations.

The presenter delves into the challenges that novice users may face in managing a SharePoint site and introduces the Request Service as a solution to guide users and ensure governance capabilities. The video also discusses the importance of having a SharePoint retention strategy and an aggressive approach to retention to manage data and files effectively.

The video also explores the potential of automation in handling site requests, using SharePoint lists and Power Automate to automate the creation of sites based on gathered information. This can reduce the number of staff needed to create sites and can be beneficial for medium and large organizations.
