In this “SharePoint List Template IDs” article, we will see the various List Template IDs in SharePoint Online/SharePoint 2019/2016/2013/2010/2007 and their usage.
SharePoint List Template IDs
SharePoint List Template IDs are frequently used while we as a SharePoint developer/administrator create the list using programming language techniques like SSOM(SharePoint Server Object Model) or CSOM(Client Side Server Object Model) or JSOM(Javascript language model) or REST API.
Apparently, while we deal with creating the list using the SharePoint UI, we don’t need to remember these Ids but they must be needed while we deal with the coding.
