List view

Here's how to to add a list database to Notion:

1. Create a new page in your workspace.

2. Under Get started with, click the ••• and then List.

If you want to create an inline list, type /List view on any page and press enter.

You can add a list to an existing database to view its data in that format. More on views here →

1. Click + at the top left of your database.

2. Select List from the dropdown menu.

In lists, all the properties assigned to an item appear at the far right to label and tag it with helpful information and context.

To edit properties in your list:

• Click Properties at the top right of your list, then + Add a property.

• Not all properties in your list need to be visible in your list itself. In the Properties menu, switch on and off what you want visible or hidden.

• You can also add new properties that apply to your whole list in page view by opening an item as a page and clicking + Add a property at the bottom of the list of properties.

• Edit an existing property by clicking ⋮⋮ to the left of it in the Properties menu. This lets you rename it, choose a different property type for it, duplicate it or delete it.

Switch up how your list is ordered with drag-and-drop on desktop or browser.

• For items, hover, then click and hold the ⋮⋮ icon on the left to drag it up or down.

• Reorder the way properties display by going to Properties and dragging the listed properties up or down using the left ⋮⋮ icon as a handle.
