View modes

After connecting files to an issue you are able to see them in the SharePoint Files issue panel. There are two view modes available which you can switch to based on your personal preference.

Changing the view mode is just related to the current user as this information is not stored on the issue.

Currently, the following view modes are supported:

Card view

This view provides a similar experience as the attachments section and contains a preview of the items.

Picture 1: Connected files - Card view

You can navigate folders and libraries in the card view by clicking on the folder icon on the top of the card or by using the open folder action

Picture 2: Connected Folder

You can use the breadcrumbs on top to navigate the content of the folder or library. The home icon will bring you back to the connected items.

List view

This view is optimized to show detailed information about items and to provide fast access to actions.

You can navigate folders and libraries in the card view by clicking on the folder icon in the file name column or by using the open folder action. You can use the breadcrumbs to navigate the content of the folder. The home icon will bring you back to the connected items.

File Actions

There are several actions available for connected files which are available in the List view and in the Card view. On the card view the actions can be accessed by hovering on a card where a context menu and common actions will be available.
