Introduction
In this blog, you will see how to create a list from an existing list in SharePoint Online Modern Site. In modern sites, we don’t have an option to save a list as a template which was available in classic sites. This was actually a drawback in case we needed to create any list based on any existing list template. In order to overcome this scenario, we have an option in Modern sites to create a new empty list based on an existing list template which includes columns, views, and formatting.
Note
Existing list template can be from the same site as well as from different site.
Create a list from an existing list
- Navigate to SharePoint Online Modern Site.
- Click the "Settings" icon and then click "Site Contents".
- Click "New" and then click "List".
- Select the "From an existing list" option, enter a name for your list, and select the list template which can be from the same site as well as from different site. Click "Create".
- A new empty list has been created, as shown in the below screenshot.
