Reflects the current release of Nintex for SharePoint 2016. For your version, please access assistance through the Help button in the product.

List View control

The List View control can be used to display a SharePoint List and optionally specify the list view to display.

Control settings

Following are the fields and options visible in the control settings dialog box for this form control.

Note: Several settings allow selection of Yes, No, or Expression. Selecting Expression allows you to construct a formula from reference tokens and functions. The expression must resolve to a Yes/No value at runtime to be valid. If the expression does not resolve to a Yes/No value, it will revert to the default.

Note: For information about the control properties tab in the Nintex Forms ribbon, see Control properties tab.
