I am wondering where MS Lists are saved on a Sharepoint Site. If there is a documents folder are they stored there or elsewhere. The reason I'm asking is that I have been granted create/edit/delete access to a folder on a sharepoint site, but I am unable to create lists on the sharepoint site.
Management at my organization doesn't know how to fix the permissions problem so I'm trying to bring them a step by step instructions on how to grant access to me.
If you go to a SharePoint site and create a new list there, it will show up as a list (Site Contents). If you start from the new Lists app to create a list and specify the site in your Save To options, it will create it in that site and will be in the Site Contents as well.
If you do not have permissions on the site to create lists, then you will not be able to create the list either through the Lists creation or from the site itself.
I highlighted the word Lists in blue above to signify the process through the Lists app:
It gets a little confusing because a list in a SharePoint site is a list. And the new Lists app essentially is just a front-end to the process of going to a site and creating a list.
I guess I don't understand the concept of Sharepoint lists. It gives me the option to save to the sharepoint site, but I can't see any folders. When I go to save it to the site I am told I don't have permissions.
They are just SharePoint lists like any other.
Where you put them is determined when you create them in the "Save To":
I hope this is helpful for you.
