In one tenant we see modern news that were published but have their PromotedState flag still being set to 0. We expect it to be 2 since they are published news articles.

I verified the value being 0 by looking at the list item's field values. The FirstPublishedDate value is missing (or empty) as well for these news.

The wrong PromotedState prevents the news from appearing in several web parts that show published news.

What else apart from publishing a modern news page is necessary to get the PromotedState to 2?

Narf. This was a human error.

  • PromotedState=0 => this is a page
  • PromotedState=1 => this is a news post, not published
  • PromotedState=2 => this is a news post, published

The problem was that the "news" was no news. It was a page.
