Will my access web app still function correctly after I migrate it to sharepoint lists ?

I am wondering if my access app will still function correctly after I export all the tables to sharepoint lists, while I'm developing flows before the list's are used as the live data.

If you are talking about the migration tool on the page of your AWA, which offers to migrate the DATA to SharePoint lists, then, yes, it works--at least it did the last time I used it several months ago. I guess I ought to revisit that.

However, that is ONLY the data. Not the interface. You'll need to create a new interface. Perhaps an accdb linked to those SP lists would be a good starting point.

Has anyone attempted using the migration tool ? Does the original app still work correctly ?
