#Change Site Collection Settings Service

Configure Change Site Collection Settings services to define the Change Site Collection Settings service request template for business users. You can change the title, description, and metadata of site collections.

To create or manage services, click Service in the Request Management group within Settings.

On the interface for creating or editing a Change Site Collection Settings service, configure the following settings.

1. Scope – Expand the tree to select the scope that contains the site collections whose settings are allowed to change.

   You can also choose to Use SharePoint Online context to automatically populate the service request scope. Select this checkbox to retrieve and use the SharePoint Online context in the service request scope. In the request triggered from the Site Information Card app part, the URL of the site collection where the Site Information Card resides will be retrieved. The site collection URL will be automatically used as the request scope. Choose one of the following options:

   • Allow Business User to Edit the URL – The site collection URL will be automatically filled into the text box, and the requester can edit it.

   • Show as Read-Only to Business User – The site collection URL will be displayed as read-only, and the requester cannot edit it.

   • Hide from Business User – The site collection URL will be hidden from the requester.

2. Changed Site Collection Settings – Choose whether to allow business users to change the Title, Description, Metadata, Hub site options, Sensitivity of site collections, and/or Apply AvePoint Cloud Management Deployment Manager Plan by selecting the corresponding checkboxes. Note the following:

   • If you select the Metadata checkbox, click Add Metadata to go to the Add Metadata window. In the Add Metadata window, select desired metadata and click Add to List. The metadata displayed here is configured in Settings > Request Management > Metadata. You can also create or edit metadata first, and then add the metadata to the list. The metadata you added can be edited by business users in the request form.

     You can also select the Enable adding or deleting metadata checkbox to allow business users to add or delete metadata when submitting a request for this service.

     NOTE

     If you do not select the Enable adding or deleting metadata checkbox, you are only able to add metadata whose values are assigned by business users to the grid. Otherwise, business users cannot modify the metadata values in the service request form.

   • If you select the Apply AvePoint Cloud Management Deployment Manager Plan checkbox, select one or more Deployment Manager plans from the table. If you select multiple plans, you must select a default plan from the drop-down list.

     NOTE

     To use the Deployment Manager plan, your tenant must have a Microsoft 365 service account profile. The service account will be automatically added to the Site Collection Administrators group during the deployment process, and it will be automatically removed from the administrator group when the deployment is completed.

     Choose whether to assign a plan for the site collection whose settings will be changed via this service, or allows business users to select a plan when submitting a request for this service. Choose from the following:

     • Assign by IT Admin – The plan selected from the Default Selection drop-down list will be applied to site collections. Select either Show as Read-Only to Business User or Hide from Business User.

     • Assign by Business User – Allows business users to select a plan when submitting requests for this service. The default plan selected in this service will become the default option, and business users can change it to another plan. You can also select the Require Business User Input checkbox to require business users to select a plan in the service request.

   • Hub site options – Select the checkbox if you allow business users to change hub site options.

     • If the requested site collection is not a hub site, the business user can enable the hub site, and then choose from Register the site collection as a hub site and Associate the site collection with a hub site.

     • If the requested site collection is a hub site, the business user can Disable the hub site feature on the site collection and Associate the site collection with a hub site.

   • If you select the Sensitivity checkbox, select one or more sensitivity labels from the table. The selected sensitivity labels will be available for users to select in the service request form. You can also select None if you allow your business users to not select any sensitivity label in the service request form to apply to the site collection.

     Note that this checkbox appears only when sensitivity labels are enabled for your tenant in Settings > System settings > Sensitivity labels in the modern Cloud Governance admin center.

3. When you have finished configuring settings for this service, choose one of the following options:

   • Click the arrow on the left-hand side to go to the previous steps to review and modify your configurations.

   • Click Save to save all of the configurations and return to the Service Management interface.
