SharePoint list search from a tab
When you add a SharePoint list as a tab, there is no way to search the list. Makes long lists unusable. I have many SharePoint lists that I could add a tabs for my users, but lack of a search feature is keeping me from being able to do this.

The team has placed Search for the List App on the backlog. We will share an update as soon as one is available. In the meantime, you may want to try using filter as a workaround.

Filter as a workaround! What a joke. MS List are useless without the ability to to search. Every time I try to do something with MS lists I need to find another workaround. Very frustrating.
Please implement the search from a Teams tab AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. -

It must be a very long backlog.

We need to be able to SEARCH MS Lists. That would be the whole point of having a centralized database I would think.

Fuc% me, we live in the era of search, of hashtags, of big data, of automatization, AI, chatbots and
stuff... SEARCHING is a the most fundamental operation in times of big data.... Someone should loose a job over this.... -

Please add the search feature back on Teams for Sharepoint Lists. We use lots of sharepoint list and filter pane is not a solution for us. In most cases we waste a lot of time with filters that do not lead us to a direct result of what we need. The solution will be the search bar that allows direct access to the results we want.

Almost two years after this was posted and still no search added. This is getting ridiculous.

agree that this makes adding the list useless in teams.

You let us add Microsoft Lists to channels and Teams navigation, but there is no search function for individual lists, and the Teams global search just returns a List Name, or filename, but not any records from within any Lists.
How did you forget about searching Lists? You keep pushing Lists in your blogs, but it is half-baked and the search doesn't even work in the Lists app or Lists PWA.
Why bother rebranding and launching a product as a must-have when the most basic functionality doesn't even work and is placed on the "Backlog"!!

My only work around is to export to Excel - which makes me wonder why I use Lists in the first place!
Also having a simple ID column (that starts at one and doesn't count deleted rows) would help so we at least have a unique ID to find items. -

This effectively makes Lists unusable. Please prioritise this requirement.

To not have an easy way to search Lists in Teams is quite frankly moronic...please please MS stop taking away or not considering simple productivity tools like search!!

What if you add to the filter pane to the id that has a lot of records(say over 20000 lines), will there be a performance hit when it tries to all the id's. its a workaround for search via id but i am wondering about performance.

Completely unusable without search. So frustrating to get it all set up and not be able to use it because search is missing.

I think this is horrible to place this functionality on a backlog for almost a year?????? I am no longer interested in using this feature as this should be a primary functionality of the app. Why enter data if you can't search it?

The search functionality was there and I created a list and gave people instructions on how to search on it only for MS to ow remove the search functionality unless you open in SharePoint. There's no point having lists in Teams if you have to open SharePoint to use it effectively. Who takes away a function as fundamental and basic as search??

No ability to search defeats the purpose of being able to integrate a list in Teams
