.list or .LIST

Which is the best practice for opening the table using .list or .LIST

Hi @surajsengar,

can you please elaborate a bit on this?

Avoid .LIST (uppercase)

While it may still work, it’s not the documented or recommended usage.

Uppercase versions are considered legacy or non-standard and may not be supported in future releases.

Using .LIST can cause confusion or inconsistency in scripts, documentation, and training.

I strongly disagree and would like to understand the reasoning behind your view, could you possibly share any documentation why that wouldn't be supported?

Hi @vodnalar26,

Depends on how are you used to navigate tabs/windows in your browser.

.list you stay on the same page, so you will escape your current page

.LIST will open in a new tab.

Buuuuut ☝️ before you navigate via .LIST then be sure that the below user preference is set to true, otherwise it will be opened without the navigation bar in the top and it's annoying...

It is a nuisance by ServiceNow as this property should be set to true OOTB :))) you can vote for my idea at the Idea portal: 💡 [IDEA] User preference for top navigation == true on default for all

wrong link, the idea is here: User preference | true on default
