Datatable showing [object object] for sharepoint lookup column

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 9

Hi All,

 

We are facing a issue in SharePoint, one table lookup column showing [object object] instead of numeric value. Rest of the columns are fine.

Column Type - Lookup

Any help on this?

    Hi @jamerishi ,

     

    How did you add these items into the list? If you manually create new items using default SharePoint functionality, will it act the same?

    Hi Jeffer,

     

    By manual method also it is still the same.

    Hi @jamerishi ,

     

     Then this should relate to SharePoint column formatting. Could you please share the settings of the column in your list?

    Hi @jamerishi ,

     

    You can check it with following steps:

    1. Format this column

    If you see different schema, you may try mine first, it's the default schema that I've never changed:

    {
     "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json"
    }

    Hi @v-jefferni ,

     

    Below is the schema:

     

     

    {
    "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/column-formatting.schema.json",
    "elmType": "a",
    "txtContent": "@currentField",
    "attributes": {
    "target": "_blank",
    "href": "=if(indexOf([$ContentTypeId], '0x0120') >= 0, '?id=' + [$FileRef], @currentWeb + '/_layouts/15/Doc.aspx?sourcedoc='+ [$UniqueId] + '&action=View')"
    }
    }

    Hi @jamerishi ,

     

    Yes, this is exactly the problem. If you just want to see the default value setting in column settings

    just copy my schema and paste into yours, then save the change.

    {
     "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json"
    }

    Hi @jamerishi ,

     

    I suggest you ask a question in SharePoint community. There may be other settings for this column that I don't know. 

     

    Best regards,
