SharePoint List Form Configure Layout - Body Not Working
Hi I am formatting a SharePoint List Form following the Microsoft documentation Configure the list form | Microsoft Docs Both the Form Header & Footer work well. However the Body does not! It s...
I have observed this behavior as well on my SharePoint site. Try below things after "saving" the JSON in body section:
- Refresh the page (hard refresh: Ctrl + F5 in windows)
- Clear browser cache
It worked for me after hard refresh and I also think that this is a temporary issue from Microsoft side (maybe because of latest updates in SharePoint online).

This is still happening. I tried for hours today and the code magically disappears the minute I save the page.
May be we turn to build form on Power APP

- I was hoping in this specific case to keep the form simple and light but I literally tried everything under the sun such creating list from blank, using pre built list, using content types and seconds after I save the form my code simply goes away. It does not seem to be a caching issue either because I tried it from multiple computers, incognito, mode etc...
UnsuckM365 what happens is that once you save, extra syntax commas and brackets are added that makes its invalid, the way around that was to paste in Visual Studio Code or something similar where it can recognize JSON syntax and error out the ones that are not matching up and fix it there then copy it back but this is not a solution for sure because if you change anything it will do that again but if you dont it will stay the same.
- To everyone having issues on this: The problem does not occur when I use a regular list with content type management turned off. Hopefully this is something that can be added in the future because site columns in the content type hub can have formatting added to them and they work just fine throughout multiple sites.
