SharePoint Widgets

 Hi Friends, Today I will be showing a simple dashboard, which displays the current status of the applications in development. This dashboard is mostly effective in quick review meetings or when presenting the application status to higher management. Below is how the dashboard will look like This is a very simple view but thought sometimes a simple view is much better to present rather than some complicated views. You can find the JSON here (on GitHub) Columns Needed: Title (Renamed as Application Name) Status    Hope this view will help you. Happy Coding..!! #Microsoft #SharePointWidgets #ListViewFormatting

Impact of unhandled Large List So, the problem first, What is the impact if it grew too large..?? Will we lose data ... ?? NO Will, the data be deleted... ?? NO Is data not safe.. ?? NO What is the Threshold limit? So what is the impact of a large list?? yes, Threshold is the cause The impact is that you will get the threshold error if your view contains records greater than 5000. When any list or library view returns records of more than 5000 it displays the threshold error. This is the hard-line limit a view can show up the number of records. So, there are multiple ways you can handle this error Solution 1: Switch to Modern View, as the latest the best and will be continuously improved. For modern Microsoft is continuously evolving and more enhancement will be there in the future. Solut...

Hi friends, Microsoft has changed the SharePoint drastically and now we do not need to write the custom solution for every need and take a toll on the performance. List view formatted is very powerful and I think it solves a lot of problems where we need to write the custom code and there is the least performance hit as well. Today I have worked upon the "Issue Tracking List" - list view row formatted. You can find the JSON file here Features Simple view Large view dedicated to the comments section, so once can read all the comments against the issue in a single view without even opening the item A lot of filters, clicking on the below columns filters the list upon that value. So one not need to create multiple views Happy Coding !! #Microsoft #SharePointWidgets
