Whether you are a beginner or simply curious,

00:00:09

this overview is designed to help you become

00:00:11

familiar with the general environment of Microsoft Lists.

00:00:15

Once you are connected to the Microsoft Lis application,

00:00:18

the interface is simple and streamlined.

00:00:21

The recent list section groups together all the lists to which I have access,

00:00:25

regardless of their location,

00:00:26

whether on SharePoint or OneDrive.

00:00:29

The my list tab,

00:00:31

on the other hand,

00:00:32

offers a view that only includes the list I have created

00:00:35

and that are stored in my OneDrive space.

00:00:38

I can also filter all the lists I have created.

00:00:42

The star icon next to the list allows me to mark an

00:00:45

item as a favorite which will pin it to the top.

00:00:48

Please note that the recycle bin accessible via

00:00:50

the settings icon refers to the one drive

00:00:53

cycle bin

00:00:54

and is not exclusive to deleted lists.

00:00:57

From the main screen,

00:00:58

I can create a new list,

00:01:00

either from a blank template that is organized according to my needs

00:01:04

or based on an existing file.

00:01:07

Or by using customizable thematic templates.

00:01:11

Once I choose one of these templates,

00:01:13

I only need to define a name and a storage location.

00:01:16

The list can be part of a SharePoint site or my OneDrive space.

00:01:21

After validation,

00:01:22

the list is created and structured according to the columns of the chosen template.

00:01:27

In the upper menu,

00:01:28

I will find commands related to the appearance of my list,

00:01:31

such as view management.

00:01:34

Filters

00:01:35

And sorting options.

00:01:38

In the higher level menu,

00:01:39

there are more general commands such as sharing the list,

00:01:42

configuring settings and alerts,

00:01:44

or connecting third party applications.

00:01:48

Existing lists can of course be modified in terms of their title,

00:01:51

theme color,

00:01:52

and associated icon.

00:01:54

Naturally,

00:01:55

more structural modifications can also be applied,

00:01:58

as we will see in other videos.
