Forms to lists - with created by

(0) Share

Posted on by DavidM38

I’ve got a pretty basic flow set up to populate a SharePoint list with every new form entry that multiple users make.
We want to show that list as part of a page to users but with the setting activated where by users can only see the items they created.
Problem is the ‘created by’ field in the list is always populated with my details (as the owner of the PA flow) so nobody can see their data in the list - except for me who sees everything!

is there a way round this without resorting to making a SharePoint entry form?

Well, it depends how secure you need it.

Do you want:

A) No one, with any action, can EVER see someone elses entry, and it is VERY important that they remain secure.

Or.

B) Users land on a page and see only their own entries. They could, if they knew SharePoint, see others -- but it's likely that they won't go to that effort.

Because for A, you need permissioning, since you're the one creating everything. So individual security on each entry.

For B, you just need a view to filter on the "Person Who Submitted This" column to equal [Me].

So ... which is it?
