Hello everybody!

I've been working with SharePoint lists and I wanted to ask about the "title" column that appears by default, what is the purpose of this column and what happen if it's removed, disabled or deleted?

Kind Regards

    Dear Leví Barbosa,

    Good day! Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. We are happy to help you

    1. Generally, the Title column is a main column that is used to open, edit and work with the items in a SharePoint list.

    Another important usage of the Title column is that this column is used in the View settings in 3 ways: Display the Title in text format, text (linked to item), and text (linked to item with edit menu).

    1. If you don't like the column, you can rename the SharePoint list title column.click on Column settings -> Rename.
