Lists
🗂Optimize Data Viewing with Lists.
Lists are linear arrangements of items typically displayed vertically, with each item represented as an entry. They are used to display and manage data in a structured format.
1. Features and Benefits
The list view offers a range of features and benefits that enhance the display:
- Compact and space-efficient
- Easy scanning and reading
- Ideal for large datasets or long lists
- Sorting and filtering capabilities
2. Create and Apply Lists View
WarningThe default view is visible to all users. To make sure it works for everyone, create a default setting that works for all users. If you need a personalised experience, copy the default view or create a new view as needed.
Watch the guided demo below to create and apply lists view.
You can also follow the same steps using the written guide below.
- Open the record and find the Views icon in the top-right corner of the screen.
- Click on the "New View" button within the Views menu.
- From the available options, choose the "Table View" option.
- Provide the view name.
- Select the "Show auto-incrementing IDs" checkbox to display an auto-incrementing ID column.
- Specify the columns you want to display in the table by choosing the corresponding field that links the data to each column.
- Alternatively, you can click "Add all fields" to add all available fields to the table.
- If there is a field in the record that contains a value or references another record, and you want to display that value in the current record view, you can use the Joined fields feature. For example, a Quote record has a Sales Rep field, and you want to display the sales rep’s email in the Quote record view. To do this, select the Sales Rep field, click + Add joined, select Email, then click + Add Field.
