Text Items

Set the text items displayed in your Simple List. Works with list blocks:

'set Simple List's text items' block used with make list from text block
This block also works with blocks to retrieve columns from Data Sources:
Fetching data from a Local Table
Getting data from an Airtable Table
Reading data from a Google Sheet
Choosing Airtable or Google Sheets allows you to create a dynamic Simple List. This is where the information displayed to the user changes whenever you change your cloud-based data in Airtable or Google Sheets. Either of these options are ideal for when you need to store thousands of items, or you need to work with items that change frequently.
Performs an action when the user clicks on any one of the list items.
