I can create all the other types of site columns except for a FieldType of Managed Metadata. Any idea on how or if this could be done?
Hi @skarthanal25,
I have not seen this type of field in the REST API docs from Microsoft. Does not seem to be supported in that API.
Also tried the new Graph API Create a columnDefinition in a list method, https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/list-post-columns?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http
I can create a MMS column with that method, however it is not linked to the term set.
My suggestion would be to use PowerShell instead. As a workaround you could for example use the Add-PnPTaxonomyField cmdlet of the PnP.PowerShell module:
https://pnp.github.io/powershell/cmdlets/Add-PnPTaxonomyField.html
@Expiscornovus thank you for your reply. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to with PA. Unfortunately, the organization that I am working at is heavily restrictive and PnP PowerShell is something that I have to go through hoops to get approved. Thank for trying!
