Workspace OOB list view is showing blank and not giving "No records to display" message

[nikhil79]

I have created a custom workspace, in which I have created a home page using the UI builder.
A user doesn't have any approvals assigned to him, so when that user opens the page, instead of showing him - "No records to display", he is being shown blank space. I tried to check at multiple places if there is any setting to enable that message but not finding same. I am certain that this is not ACL issue - because as soon as user has any approvals assigned to him - he is able to see the records in the list view of workspace.

I simply wanted the user to see "No records to display" just like we see in native view.

Is anyone aware of this?

@nikhil79 

is it showing blank to admin as well for which there are no records?

share that screenshot where you are getting this message

Hi @Ankur Bawiskar ,
Yes, even for admin its getting the same, in one image you can see there is no group approvals for the admin, and it shows blank page.

Now, I created a new request and moved it for approval, so that a approval record is created for admin as well.

@Ankur Bawiskar Just to be more precise - I don't want to show the users blank page, which could be confusing.
I would rather like to show some custom message - or OOB message which we get in list view -> "No records to display"

that's not possible.

if the logged in user has no approvals they will see blank list and you can't show a custom message I believe.
