I use a Metabones IV adapter on a Sony A7R II and am considering Canon TS-E tilt-shift lenses. Will they work properly with this adapter, and are there any compatibility concerns to be aware of?

I think yes, as Metabones IV support electronic diaphragm activation and the Canon T&S lenses are manual focus.

Yes—Canon TS-E tilt-shift lenses should work on a Sony A7R II with a Metabones IV adapter. These lenses are manual focus, so autofocus compatibility is not a concern. The key requirement is electronic aperture control, and the Metabones IV supports electronic diaphragm activation for Canon EF lenses. In practice, that means you should be able to mount the lens, focus manually, and control the aperture through the adapter/camera setup. As with any adapted lens setup, exact behavior can depend on firmware and camera settings, but based on the provided information there’s no specific issue unique to Canon TS-E lenses here.
