Microsoft Lists announcements

Microsoft held their bi-yearly Ignite conference this week, and there were several significant announcements concerning Microsoft List.

Board view:
Soon, you’ll be able to work with list data in a board– an often requested Lists view. This view is ideal when you want to track items as they move forward in a process or workflow. Moving items through stages is as easy as dragging and dropping. It’s easy to configure which columns from your list are displayed in the cards and in what order.

 

Modern lookup columns:
Lookup columns allow you to connect a list to a column from another list you have on your site. Once connected, you can easily “lookup” other information and include this in your new list. This makes it easy to maintain team-level, centralized lists that contain information you use repeatedly.

 

Create and view lists from the SharePoint app bar
Now you'll be able to view and start creating lists as an action from within the SharePoint app bar. This means, no matter where you are in SharePoint, or in Viva Connections, you can jump right into the list.


 

Microsoft Lists: Rich-text editor (RTE) updates
Microsoft continue to make steady improvements to editors in the Grid view – one change in particular is the new rich text editor. Microsoft has made it even easier to click in and quickly apply formatting to items that need it. If you make a mistake, edits are quickly reversible – users can use the undo/redo buttons or keyboard shortcuts to roll back any changes I don’t want to be final.

 

Microsoft Lists: Improved link sharing
Lists now support all the same link-sharing capabilities as files, so you can easily grab a link that works for anybody, or just scoped to your organization.  Users will have the same link sharing capabilities such as the ability to see who a list has been shared with.

 

Microsoft Lists: Fast and offline
Lists you work with now get automatically synchronized to your Windows device, if that device has the OneDrive sync app installed. This brings several improvements to your Lists experience. First, it means you can load the Lists app and view and edit list data when you’re offline. Second, loading and interacting with lists just got a whole lot faster, whether you’re online or offline. Finally, views inside synced lists never get throttled, regardless of the number of items in the view, or whether those columns get indexed.
 
 

New Office.com create experience – includes creating Lists
Create is your place for beginning something new. You can start from a template or by the type of content. The new Create goes beyond common Office files; you can start a Form, a list, or a post for Yammer. You can create files using templates, even company-branded templates.
