Sharepoint linked contact lists over sites
Here is my thought - I hope you find something in it that works for you!
- Create a central project site that has info on it that might pertain to ALL projects (I suggest a Communication Site)
- Make this new site a Hub site
- Create a master contacts list that lives on the site created above
- Add a link to the hub navigation that points to the master contacts list
- Now associate/join all of the project sites to the new Project Hub site created in the first step
With this set up, every associated project will have the same hub navigation at the very top with a link that points to the contact list that lives on the central hub site
I was going to suggest adding a Highlighted Content web part...but apparently that only works for documents! Ugh...if you could select a list in Highlighted Content then that would allow you to grab items from that list that lives on the hub and pull them into a page on any of the associated project sites.
Good luck and please let us know if any of this works for you!
markkram I agree with jcgonzalezmartin, it's something you'd need to build. Either you could use a flow in Power Automate to populate the "overhead" site when a new item is created on one of the project sites. Or you could just view the contacts from the different project sites in a data table or gallery in a Power Apps screen. Power Apps allows you to connect to multiple data sources so that might be the route to choose depending on how many project sites you have.
