Moving a Sharepoint 'List' to another location

ICT received a request to move a Sharepoint list from a users Sharepoint site who has left the authority to another location. The other location is a Team.

First thing you will need to do is give yourself Sharepoint PIM, and also give yourself access to the users OneDrive/Sharepoint site. The following document explains how to do this - https://servicedesk.lancaster.gov.uk/a/solutions/articles/53000045694

You may also need to give yourself temporary access to the location they want the List moving to. In this instance it was a Team called 'WasteCollectionsProject'. I gave myself owner permission to this Team and then it appeared in my Teams App.

Once you have given yourself Sharepoint administrator PIM and access to the users OneDrive/Sharepoint site we then need to browse to the Sharepoint List in question.

ICT was supplied with a link to access the List they watned moving which is - https://lancastercc-my.sharepoint.com/personal/ebrown_lancaster_gov_uk/Lists/Engineering%20%20Public%20Realm%20Assets/AllItems.aspx?ct=1737019574111&or=OWA-NT-Mail&cid=646ee595-40ac-80ab-b2ab-ce6fe67bd96c&LOF=1

Clicking on the link above then opened the Sharepoint List in a browser window

From the menu click on 'Export' and then select 'Export to CSV with schema

This will then export and save the List a CSV file to your downloads folder.

We then need to upload this List to the 'WasteCollctionsProject' Team

Go to the Team and click on the + to add another App

Search for and select the 'Lists' App then click save.

You should then be presented with the following:-

Click on 'Create a list'

On the next screen click on 'From CSV'

Click on 'Upload file' then select and upload the list which you exported earlier in this process.

This list should then load, scroll to the bottom of the page and click on 'Next'

You should the be prompted to name/rename the list and give it a description.

Once you have given the List a name/description click on 'Create'

You should now see the same List you exported in the Team you have imported it into.

Once complete, remove any access permissions you gave yourself to complete this task (ie acces to other Teams/OneDrive/Sharepoint)
