Lists custom JSON column formatting not updating until reaching bottom of list or switching views

I have a custom JSON column in Microsoft List which consists of 6 icons which indicate a status. Upon going to the list only 4 out of 6 icons load correctly, the other ones are invisible. Interestingly the icons which are visible are not in consecutive order, the order is as follows: 1st, 4th, 5th and 6th.

But when you scroll down to the bottom of the list every element (around 30ish) gets loaded and the missing icons appear and work just fine. Switching between views also reveals the missing icons. Once the tab is reloaded the icons disappear again. It seems like there is something wrong with the updating of custom JSON columns.

Has anyone else run into the same problem or perhaps has a solution for this problem?

    Sorry, I somehow ended up in the wrong forum @David_MA. I found the correct forum and made a post there for anyone with the same / similar problem (Microsoft Lists custom JSON column formatting not updating until - Microsoft Community)

    How is your question related to Power Automate? JSON formatting of lists is a SharePoint issue. Granted, someone may answer your question here, but you may want to post it in the SharePoint forums at SharePoint | Microsoft Community Hub
     
    If you do post it in the SharePoint forums, you should include the JSON you are using for formatting the list. You could use one of several AI agents to review the code as they are very good at spotting errors in JSON code. However, they are also at times very bad with helping with formatting JSON for SharePoint views. It is currently hit and miss but hopefully will improve.
