How can I get 'Move to' command to appear on a document library webpart on a SharePoint page

I have the commands for 'Move to' ,'Copy to', 'Manage access' and 'Version history' in the full document library on my SharePoint site. Why are these not present in the webpart for a document library list of commands?

Hi @Erin

Unfortunately, this is currently a limitation of the SharePoint Online Document Library web part. The web part does not expose the same file actions that are available when accessing the full document library directly, such as Move to, Copy to, etc. Users would need to select See all and open the full library to access those options.

I also found that this has already been submitted as a feature request in the Microsoft Feedback Portal:

I would encourage you to upvote the feedback and add any additional information you want. Feedback submitted through the portal is reviewed by the SharePoint product team and helps them prioritize future enhancements.

Thank you for your understanding.
