Viva Connections App - open a form of a list directly within the app
Hello, I am experienced, hat any hyperlink in a SharePoint Online page to a new form (NewForm.aspx) of a list will open not directly in the Viva Connection app. Instead it open a new browser window. ...
So when you go into a list, there's a new button. This new button will open a panel on the right where you can create a new item (same as in webbrowser):
This will open in Viva Connection and SharePoint. Linking to NewForm.aspx will open a new browser session
NicolasKheirallah thank you for clarification! 🙂
I did some tests with a list in Viva Connections. Here are my oberservations (September 2023) in a targeted release dev tenant.
1. If the mobile user browses directly to the list and opens there the 3 dot menu and afterwards click "new" the form is rendered mobile friendly and language dependent directly in Viva Connections
2. I copied the provided deep link from the list form (provided on the top of the form via "Copy link") and published it in a page in SPO via Button. The URL directs to https://tenantname.sharepoint.com/sites/websitename/_layouts/15/listform.aspx with a lot of HTTP Get parameters
If the mobile user clicks the button with the deep link to the form, the new form is rendered in mobile mode in Viva Connections. This is what I need for mobile end users. 😊
BR,
