Hello! Does anyone know if it's possible with the fieldsettings, readonly formatting, to make it conditional based on a Person field? It's a multi people field if that makes a difference? I ideally want to make certain fields read only based on who is viewing it (without having to use a Power App customised form!). This is what I want (but I know the syntax is likely all wrong!) but not sure if it's possible to use an IF statement with boolean statements? { "sections": [ {} ], "fieldsettings": [ { "name": "Comments", "readonly": "=if([$People.email] == me, false, true)" } ] }172Views0likes2CommentsID Calculated Column Not Showing

I'm trying to make sense of column names in MS Lists. It seems like columns can have both an internal/system name and an alias. For example, my Title column (internal/system name) is displayed as a custom "Asset ID" column in the Microsoft Lists app. Is there a way to view a list of all column names, and the list would show both the internal/system column name and the column alias?

I have an EMPLOYEE text column in an Excel spreadsheet. I plan to import the spreadsheet as an MS List. The EMPLOYEE spreadsheet column contains both current and past employee names. If I create a new PERSON column in the List to store this data (for clean querying and automation purposes), only the current employees will match up with the Active Directory picklist, not the past employees. If I enter past employees into the PERSON column, the List won't let me save those values since they're invalid. Is there a way to force the past employee names into the PERSON column as broken/unlinked values, such as through a Power Automate flow? Or do I have no choice but to use a TEXT column instead with a custom picklist (manually maintained picklist values)?Solved106Views0likes4CommentsImport picklist values for SharePoint List choice field
I have a column in a SharePoint List that uses the choice field type. I'm able to manually enter each choice value by copying/pasting text from an Excel spreadsheet. Is there a way to import a long list of values directly into SharePoint to save time?185Views0likes3CommentsSharePoint Template Gallery
Hey everyone, I'm running into an issue with the new SharePoint site page template gallery. Some of my templates are showing up consistently, while others appear intermittently — even though all the metadata is identical across them. I've been troubleshooting but can't pinpoint what's causing the inconsistency. For context: I have over 100 templates in the gallery. A template I just created is displaying fine, but one I made last week isn't showing up at all, so I don't think it's a template count issue. Any insights would be really appreciated!Solved193Views1like3CommentsExternal Users Unable to Access Microsoft List Form
We have created a Microsoft List and are using the default Microsoft Lists Form for data entry / intake form. Internal users can access the form URL and submit items successfully. However, external users are unable to access the form link, even though they have been granted Contribute permissions to the SharePoint list. External users can: Access the list Create new items using the + New button Edit items based on their permissions However, they cannot access the dedicated Microsoft Lists Form URL and getting following error. This link is only available to internal users. This link is not available to you. Our requirement is to allow external users to: Open the Microsoft Lists Form URL View the form Submit new items without providing additional access beyond what is required for form submission, and without using Microsoft Forms. Is guest/external user access to the Microsoft Lists Form experience supported? If so, what configuration or permissions are required to enable external users to access and submit items through the form URL?Solved292Views0likes3CommentsDynamic Mandatory Fields
