Hi, I'm trying to use JSON formatting to change the color of an entire column of a SharePoint list, and I can't figure it out. Setting the background-color style property appears to only affect the background color of the text. You can still see the default column color in between rows. I want the whole column to be one color. Is there a way to do that?Solved150Views0likes2CommentsID Calculated Column Not Showing
I have created a calculated column to show the ID in an opened List item. This is using =ID in the formula box.

I have seen this discussion before (see https://jgvjg48436.lithium.com/t5/General-Power-Automate/Missing-Columns-from-SharePoint-List-in-Flow/td-p/239360) but suggested solutions have not resolved my issue. So, I am looking for some more guidance or suggestions. I have a SharePoint list with a Look-up column. Using Get Items in a cloud flow this field does not display. Setup SharePoint List called "ARB Meetings" SharePoint List called "Decision Register", this has a lookup column to the ARB Meetings list. Get Item Note, I have tried using Limit columns by View and created a new view including the required lookup column, without success. In the Decision Register SharePoint List, there are some items where the ARB Meetings column is blank, I don't know if this could cause an issue? Co-Pilot Help I have asked Co-Pilot for help, which gave me plently of good options I have tried the following without success: If your lookup column is not showing in the Get items action in Power Automate, here are a few steps you can try to resolve the issue: Check List Views: Ensure that the lookup column is included in the default view of your SharePoint list. Sometimes, columns not included in the view might not appear in Power Automatehttps://jgvjg48436.lithium.com/t5/Building-Flows/Get-items-not-showing-lookup-column/td-p/859264. Refresh the Flow: After adding the lookup column to your list, refresh your Power Automate flow. You might need to close and reopen the flow designer to see the updated columnshttps://jgvjg48436.lithium.com/t5/General-Power-Automate/Missing-Columns-from-SharePoint-List-in-Flow/td-p/239360. Limit Columns by View: In the Get items action, use the Limit columns by view option to select a view that includes the lookup column. This can help ensure that the column is retrievedhttps://jgvjg48436.lithium.com/t5/General-Power-Automate/Missing-Columns-from-SharePoint-List-in-Flow/td-p/239360. Check Column Settings: Verify that the lookup column is properly configured in SharePoint. Ensure it is not hidden or restricted in any wayhttps://jgvjg48436.lithium.com/t5/Building-Flows/Get-items-not-showing-lookup-column/td-p/859264. Pagination Settings: If your list has a large number of items, enable pagination in the Get items action settings. This can help retrieve all items, including those with lookup columnshttps://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/business-apps/power-automate/guidance/working-with-get-items-and-get-files. If these steps don't resolve the issue, you might want to try creating a new flow from scratch to see if the lookup column appears. Sometimes, starting fresh can help Power Automate recognize new or updated columns. Let me know if you need further assistance or if there's anything else I can help with!

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)" } ] }472Views0likes2CommentsMS List Column Width Forced

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)?Solved167Views0likes4CommentsImport picklist values for SharePoint List choice field
