Automatically add item author name to the Lists view when creating new item in Microsoft Lists

Petr Marak 62

Hi all,

I tried to find out on web and forums, but not successful...
How can I add a column to the Microsoft Lists, which will automatically generate and display in Lists view a name of item author every time the "New item" is created (and can also generate and display author names of already created items)?

I'm not certain I understand the question, but I think you're asking how to show the name of the user who created each item in a view for the list.

If that's the case, then follow these steps.

Select the gear icon in the top right of the screen and then select List settings.

Scroll down the Views section and select the view where you want to show the name of the user who created each item .

Select the Created By column and then select OK.
