Please provide a bulk list loader that actually works
When migrating large lists into an SPO site for the first time, or doing large-scale maintenance on a list (e.g. loading a new section into a data dictionary or glossary list) there is currently no tool available in Modern Lists to process a data upload like this. The current "Create a List from Excel" is crippled by a ludicrously low row-limit and offers no options to configure the throttling row-count. Neither does it offer an "append" option.
Instead we are forced to rely on dodgy PowerAutomate scripts which have to be tailored to an individual list each time they are…1 vote -
Please enable Lookup columns to select multiple values as Choice columns do
We used to have the option to select multiple values from a Lookup results drop-down, just as Choice columns can, but this seems to have been disabled in Modern Lists.
Please reenable the multiple selection option for Modern List Lookup columns

Enable Duplicate value suppression in a List view when there is no qualifying column visible
If I have a List which has rows including a classification column and a detail column, and I have a view of the list which shows only the classification values, I should be able to choose to suppress duplicate classifications appearing when I have no qualifying detail, but it appears this is not possible.
This annoying feature prevents a List from being filtered easily by a self-view which has only category/classification values in it. We have to make the categories/classifications a separate list. It also means I get filter values (from my separate list) which may have no details for…

Add an option to filter Lookup column selections based on another column in the current list
Please modify the Lookup Column definition to add a new configuration option, after the "In this column" option, and before the "Add a column" config, as follows:
Filtered by:
[name of another column in the current list as filter]
+ [optional name of a 2nd column to filter on]Where the + next level filter is specified, a dynamic (next+1) option should be offered automatically as soon as the next level filter field name is entered.
The results displayed in the filtered drop-down lookup list should be filtered as AND(Filter1, Filter2, Filter3,...) where the filter values are (a) specified in…

Reflect column formatting in Microsoft Lists Gallery View
In Microsoft Lists, we can easily apply column formatting using conditional formatting or using JSON in Advanced mode which works successfully for the compact and list views. but I noticed that when switching the view to the gallery view, the column formatting is never applied!
It would be great to be able to reflect the same formatting on the gallery view as well!

Images aren’t displayed in expanded rich text in the modern UI
■Description(内容):
SharePoint モダン UI にてリストで複数行列 (拡張リッチテキスト) に画像を保存したあと、リスト一覧に戻ると保存した画像が表示されない。
クラシック UI から保存した画像はリスト一覧に戻ると画像が表示される。
クラシック UI に変更することなくモダン UI で画像を表示できるようにしてほしい。If you save an image to a multi-row (expanded rich text) column in a list, in the SharePoint modern UI, when you return to the entire list the image is not displayed.
If you go back to it having saved it from the classic UI then it is shown correctly.
Please make it possible to have these show without requiring you to switch to the classic UI.7 votes -
Easier way to manage alerts on lists
Housekeeping alerts on list takes too long. You can go into Ste Settings and User Alerts but then have to go into each person listed (and we have 100s on some of our Team Sites) via a dropdown and click Update just to see whether there are any alerts for an individual and if there are which lists they are for. It would save so much time if when we have the list open that we want to review alerts for, there was a way to Manage all Alerts for that list (all I get is Set Alert and Manage…

Please pop up a warning message when a user tries to bulk delete items in the folder
I as an admin would like to prevent multiple items get deleted by mistake. It would be great if any warning pop-up will be prompted when someone tries to delete multiple items at once. This final warning message may prevent a mistake.

list grouping
Would like ability to hide the column title when modern list grouped by column. For instance, if I have 3 items in the "Widget A" column, and group by that column, the results will return like:
Widget A: yes
Widget A: no
Widget A: maybeIt would be helpful to be able to remove the column title "Widget A" from the grouping results for a cleaner appearance. There were ways around this in Classic experience, but not in Modern.

Lists in read only mode: ability to comment on items
To be able able to comment on an item in a list from MS Lists you need to have a read AND write access. It's crucial for our team to be able to add a comment with a read only access. This is the only way to preserve the integrity of a list shared with multiple users.

Archive List Entry Option Instead of Just Delete
Sometimes we need to be able to retrieve a list entry that had been previously deleted. It would be great if we could just archive an entry and unarchive it when we want it active in the list again.

Add ability to filter the Calendar view (by status, category, assigned, etc.)
Please add the ability to filter by other columns in the Calendar view of a list and also see all the columns in the Details pane. The calendar view is great, but it's really difficult to use as an editorial calendar (for example) when you can't filter the calendar by status, topic, category, assigned to and other common editorial fields. We want to be able to see everything by month, but then filter down to see what's planned in a specific category.
It's also very annoying that in the Calendar view, when you click on an item, the details for…
