How to extract standard/custom column JSON formatting from Sharepoint List View?
roktoro You're right that there isn't a direct way to extract the default JSON formatting from standard SharePoint list columns.
However, you can still achieve similar results by leveraging the library of open source JSON formatting samples maintained by the SharePoint community. These samples provide a great starting point to copy, paste and customize to your specific needs. Alternatively, you can apply your own custom JSON to a column and then access that JSON later from the column settings.
This allows you to reuse or modify the formatting for other columns as needed. The key in both cases is to start with custom JSON, either from the community samples or your own work, rather than trying to extract the default formatting. By building up a library of these JSON snippets, you'll be able to efficiently create a consistent look and feel across your lists and libraries.
