I just can’t seem to get my head around JSON, I have zero programming experience, but still trying as I really want to up my game with formatting. Thank you for the playlist, really enjoy all your SharePoint content 🤩
I hear you! Keep trying, and try to improve little by little. This isn't something anyone can pick up immediately and be great at. Just use your past experience to make your next formatter even better. Over time, you'll begin seeing amazing results! We're all trying to get better 😄 And thank you so much for your wonderful feedback!
Hi Steve! This is great! very useful. Is it possible to change the Selection column? i am using a list, as a look up for another list, but i would like to remove the selection (so the additional column with the tickboxes) and get the title to be the selection. Is that even possible? thank you!!
@@stevecorey365 Hi Steve, thank you for your quick reply. I did try that, but then it won't let me make a selection. I have a list of categories, when i select the category, the other webpart displays all the pages that are in that category. If i do hideselection true, then i have nowhere to click to select the category. I tried in the view setting unticking Allow individual item checkboxes, but it gives me the same result. It used to work in the past but does not seem to work now.
Thank u..we can learn lots of things from this type topic becz how can I solve those type problem,I didn’t find any tutorial, make more video how can we solve sharepoint problems..I think u will understand what I'm trying to tell u!
Hi Steve, thanks for this nice tutorial !! I'm wondering whether you would recommend setup column formatting at Site column level? and would it work? for example, I have conditions based on column self and other column in the list, I'm wondering whether it will work . Asking this due to column formatting at list level is pretty risky when any other admin want to update site column then the site column will be set to default and remove all formats! thanks for any suggestion!
I usually recommend site columns over list columns, and training for site owners. I'd also recommend storing JSON formatters in text files so they can be reused easily. SP Formatter (a browser and VS Code extension) helps out a lot with that.
Hi Steve, I'm new to this topic and I'm looking for a solution using column formatting, but I don't know if this is possible. We have a SharePoint library, and we want the users to be able to open the documents directly using the client in edit mode, but the users only have read permissions. Is it possible? Thank you!
Hi Glenda! Yes, you can use JSON formatting to display a link directly to the DOCX file itself instead of the web view, if that's what you're saying. You would use the customRowAction attribute with the "defaultClick". You can see how this is done here ➡️ learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/declarative-customization/formatting-syntax-reference?WT.mc_id=MVP_320501#customrowaction
This video is super helpful, thank you! But the advanced formatting doesn’t work, I used the same line of code as you did but my sharepoint doesn’t seem to register the ‘Incomplete’, what may be the problem?
Hello, Is it possible to have check boxes in the board view within lists? I am trying to transfer my trello board to sharepoint because my organization doesn't want to pay for trello but there isn't anything available that will allow both functionalities of Planner and Lists...

I think I understand what you're asking. You can hide the selection column (the checkboxes themselves) with the hideSelection JSON attribute.

I understand completely! I'll brainstorm for more examples to show JSON formatting in action. Thank you for the feedback!

You might have missed a comma at the end of a line?
Very helpful video - Could you please create one more video to apply formatting for list form Layout where sections available in the body. Thank you
I'll add that to the list. Thanks so much for the feedback!
Hello,
Is it possible to have check boxes in the board view within lists? I am trying to transfer my trello board to sharepoint because my organization doesn't want to pay for trello but there isn't anything available that will allow both functionalities of Planner and Lists...
You could use multiple views for that. Have a normal list view, and then the board view. I think that's the closest you can get.
