Lightning Tools Forms Studio is evolving to provide even greater flexibility with your forms through the upcoming enhancement of the Lookup Column. Soon, you’ll be able to connect lookup fields not only to SharePoint lists, but also to external data sources via external connectors.
This means you’ll be able to populate dropdowns and lookup fields with live data from a variety of external systems—such as CRMs, HR platforms, databases, and other line-of-business applications—without needing to duplicate data into SharePoint.
Benefits:
- Seamless Integration: Display real-time data from external sources directly within your forms.
- No-Code Configuration: Easily connect to external systems using a simple, intuitive interface—no custom development required.
- Data Consistency: Ensure your forms are always referencing the most accurate and up-to-date information from your business systems.
- Flexible Scenarios: Ideal for scenarios where SharePoint isn’t the primary source of truth—such as looking up customer records, employee data, or product catalogs.
This enhancement empowers organizations to build smarter, more connected forms that break free from the limitations of SharePoint-only data, while still retaining a no-code experience.
