I have tested the JSON code, it works well in my SharePoint.

The update is a new experience released by Microsoft for List. Microsoft made views easier to create and access by arranging them into tabs at the top of the screen. users can use custom views that slice, dice, and arrange the right information for specific audiences or scenarios. This new update will not affect the JSON codes for the view.

I notice that two screenshots show different views in the document library.

Please go to the Products view, format the current view, use JSON code.

Answer 4

Hi everybody,

I think I face the exact same issue. Since this morning the Microsoft List object in our Teams has changed with the views presented in Tab and not in a Menu and now my formatting JSON has strange behavior.

After some investigation it seems the groupProps with headerFormatter have a major issue.
In my view, the group row is now covering the 6 following rows in the view preventing to read te content :(.

The dev team in MS forgot to do the non-regression tests before deliver !!!!

Our JSON formatting was also affected this morning. We have a column formatting showing a hyperlink to another list with dynamic verbiage based on the Approval Status field.

The hyperlink still works but the verbiage is always resolving to Rejected. Causing a lot of panic with users thinking everything is getting rejected.

Protion of JSON not working.

"txtContent": "=if([$_ModerationStatus]==0,'Approved',if([$_ModerationStatus]==2,'In Progress','Rejected'))"
