✏️ How to inline edit fields in Microsoft / SharePoint Lists
NEW VIDEO N. 194
Using ListView and Column formatting in Microsoft / SharePoint lists is possible to take advantage of the attribute inlineEditField which gives the chance to change immediately the value of a field.
This capability allows to edit the content of a list without opening the item or clicking on Edit in grid view.
GiulianoDeLucaThis appears to work in some fields in a list view but not in others; it's as if there's a limit to how many columns can be configured with this feature.
Example: I have a list with two multi-line text, two choice, one single-line text, and some other fields. I've configured the inlineEditField JSON for the two choice and two multi-line fields, but it only works for the two choice and one of the two multi-line fields.
- Hi Cyd_Davis are you sure that the field name that you are using is correct?
- There is an issue where if the field is not visible on your Input form, the inlineEditField will not function properly. Text field value will be erase, multi-choice fields will quickly blink and disappear, etc. To workaround to keep the field hidden on your Input form is to first add it to the input form, then add a conditional formula that will always return False like =if(1== 2, 'true', 'false')
