How to use this sample

Summary

This sample transforms list items into cards formatted with IMDb (Internet Movie Database) Movie listing layout. To ensure the view functions correctly, make sure all specified columns are included. The icons are referenced from Fluent UI Icons.

screenshot of the sample

The Director and Actor names are hyperlinks so that you can leverage them to filter other movies where they might have featured. If you set the href as follows, the link to the filtered view will be displayed:

"href": "=@currentWeb+'/Lists/<<ListName>>'+'/'+'<<ViewName>>.aspx?FilterField1=<<InternalNameOfColumn>>&FilterValue1='+[$<<InternalNameOfColumnToBeUsedForFilter>>]"

For example:

"href": "=@currentWeb+'/Lists/MovieCast'+'/'+'AllItems.aspx?FilterField1=Title&FilterValue1='+[$Actor1]"

You can achieve that by using query strings as described in this blog.
