Dynamic Accordion - FAQ Builder

Summary

• This sample is based on Erik Benke and Mike Zimmerman's Accordion Section FAQ Builder web part. It adds extended support for single FAQs list based on Category and dynamic properties selection.
• Adds a collapsible accordion section to an Office 365 SharePoint page or Teams Tab.
• Ideal for displaying FAQs.
• When adding the web part, you'll be prompted to select a list from a property panel dropdown (target list must be created with FAQ type Question and Answer.).
• The web part expects a column called Category of type choice that will be used as the category.
• The web part will automatically load all the properties in two dropdowns. One for Accordion Title and One for Accordion Content that must be html type.
• This will generate an accordion with one section for each item in the list.
• Modifications/deletions/additions to the list items in the target list of an added web part are automatically reflected on the page.
• To deploy to a Teams tab see current Microsoft documentation.
