Details
This update improves the overall performance of Lists in Microsoft SharePoint and introduces new features, including the ability to add ratings to any list, drag and/or paste images directly into a list, see who is collaborating with you in real-time, switch views by clicking tabs, and more.
This rollout is a continuation of MC600726 (Updated) Microsoft Lists User Experience Update (June 2023).
When this will happen:
Targeted Release: We will begin rolling out early February 2024 and expect to complete by late February.
Standard Release GCC, GCCHigh, DoD: We will begin rolling out late February and expect to complete by late June 2024.
How this will affect your organization:
Users in affected tenants will see Lists feature updates as described in Microsoft Lists: Easier, Better, Faster, Stronger - Microsoft Community Hub when browsing to lists in SharePoint sites, the Lists progressive web app (PWA), and Lists in Teams. All Lists in SharePoint sites will maintain the SharePoint site's chrome, theming, and navigation. These improvements will NOT reach Lists that have been configured with these features:
- SharePoint Framework extensions
- PowerApps forms
- Approvals
- The Playlist template
Future rollouts will bring support for Lists that are using these features.
