Link to list
Is there a method to link/display items from one list in one site to another site?
I have a Trips list on one site and would like to use that list on my travel site NOT recreate a new list based on that list. I dont want to duplicate data.
This used to be easily possible using 3rd party utilities like CorasWorks but now, all I see is Embed which is pretty much useless is you want to add new items and hafve them show up on both sites and create lookups in the second site for use in expenses.
It appears that SPO is still 'siloizing' content. Yes??

Hello Carl_Williams
with search you can view items cross site from all other sites, where do you have access.
But you mean cross site lookups, right? That's right, you can use SharePoint lookup columns only in the same site. I think with Power Apps you can create cross site lookups: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/169985/sharepoint-online-lookup-column-from-another-site

Thanks Dave.
Heaven forbid a 'rollup' technology is built-in to SPO. Yes there's managed metadata but then you run into another myriad of issues.
EVERYTHING in this confounded tech seems to have a myriad of issues that are NEVER dealt with. At least there are data service connections to Trellio etc. Where would we be without that??I'll just go use some other "useful" and "functional" tech, this all seems to have gone to the birds.
