manderson2411 Did you create the SharePoint list manually via SharePoint UI or programmatically? Or did you migrated it from somewhere else?

 

Which list template you used for creating site? Are you using any classic experience template like Tasks/Announcements?

      Narmeen_Ghanim Unfortunately, classic list templates are not supported by SharePoint online modern experience list web part.

       

      You will have to create the list using modern list templates then only it will be available to select in modern experience list web part.

    ganeshsanap Hi - I created the list manually.

     

    I have solved my issue with a workaround by creating the list on a main company SP page, instead of through my personal company SP page in order for it to be included in a company web page. If that makes sense?

      manderson2411 Yes, it is by design in SharePoint.

       

      In order to show the SharePoint list in List web part, you have to create the list on same SharePoint site where site page is created (where you are trying to show the list in web part).

       

      Check documentation for more information: Use the List web part
