enable co-authoring for existing projects

Currently, ProjectWise 365 allows administrators to configure a default SharePoint site for co-authoring at the enterprise level, which applies to new projects and new co-authoring sessions. However, there is no supported method to retroactively apply this setting to all existing projects.

We are requesting the ability to:

  • Use PowerShell to use the enterprise-defined SharePoint site as the default co-authoring storage.

  • Optionally, include a flag to override project-level settings where applicable.

Business Justification:

Manually updating each project’s co-authoring settings is time-consuming and error-prone, especially for organizations managing hundreds of active projects. A scriptable solution would:

  • Ensure consistency across all projects

  • Reduce administrative overhead

  • Improve adoption of co-authoring workflows

Suggested Implementation:

  • Extend the existing ProjectWise PowerShell module to include a Set-PWProjectCoAuthoringStorage cmdlet.

  • Allow filtering by project name, folder path, or creation date.

  • Include logging and error handling for audit purposes.
