The "View List" button in the Lists report was constructing an invalid URL that prevented users from opening lists and libraries. The issue was in the URL construction logic that incorrectly combined
ListViewUrl(which is for viewing individual items) withListUrlas a query parameter.Problem:
This created malformed URLs like:
https://tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/site/_layouts/15/DispForm.aspx?ID=/sites/site/Lists/MyListSolution:
This now creates proper SharePoint list URLs like:
https://tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/site/Lists/MyListThe fix ensures that clicking "View List" correctly opens the list or library in a new tab, restoring the expected functionality for users of the site administration tool.
Fixes #150.
