Add a list

6/10/2022


A list is a data-driven configuration used to render a list of records without the need for a developer to surface the grid in the portal. Lists use Dataverse views to display records on the portal.

A list displays data in a grid view on Power Pages sites. Lists on pages are created from Dataverse table views. Dataverse table views can be created by using the Data workspace or from model-driven apps created in Power Apps. You can use them on pages or with forms to build a complete web application.

To add a list:

1. Open the design studio to edit the content and components of the page.

2. Select the page you want to edit.

3. Select the section you want to add the list component to.

4. Hover over any editable canvas area, and then select the List icon.

5. You can choose either to create a new list or use an existing list.

    If you choose to create a new list, you'll need to enter the following criteria.
