SharePoint News connector problem
The SharePoint News Connector (sometimes) does not publish a post when a new SharePoint news is published. We have tried waiting for 24 hours without any post showing up. When we republish the news post, a post is created in the channel. Is there anything we can do to fix this behaviour?

News posts worked for me back in December after a previous fix... but now it has stopped working again. When I went to look at the configuration, I saw a message that my configuration was old, that I needed to remove it and reconfigure it again. Is this functionality being supported or going away? Wondering if I need to look for another solution that will be supported.

It is working now. The connector just posted hundreds of missing news (that were posted manually as well so our news channel is flooded now with messages)

Same issue here. I noticed when I configure the connector it says no configuration file found goes blank then shows the Connector configured ------> The connector does not work anymore. Does not matter if you republish edit copy or do voodoo magic...
Sad as it is a cool feature when working. Now I need to do the same with flow which does not post pictures and looks lame...

Been having this issue on an off now for a while, seems to be getting worse now since before you could edit the post and on repost it would work but now not at all! Please can it be fixed ASAP!

It did not work for me at all even though I have tried to republish many times.

The missing signature error seems to be resolved and the connector shows as being connected. There is a post in the Team site informing the connector has been added, however no news is being posted. Please resolve ASAP.

There is no way to configure the connector is this correct?
I can only activate the connector for one channel and it should automatically connect to the corresponding SPO with NewsWebPart.
So I can't even configure multiple connectors in a team that pull information from different SPOnlines News WepParts?

Same issue, first it was working fine then suddenly I had to create a new news page and delete it then it pushed the news. Now it stopped totaly and when I deleted it I cant add it back again, getting the missing signature error.

My coworkers and I are having the same experience. The SharePoint News connector can no longer be configured for any Teams channel. This issue is having a significant negative impact on our organization's communications.

Same issue here. And it has been for a long time. Why is this not a priority?
