List

A List is a UI component that displays a collection of items in the form of a list. The List is scrollable if there are too many items to fit in its container, or it can also be separated into pages. A List can be connected to a Data Source to retrieve and display specific values. Lists can be useful if you want to display a list of items to the user.

It is recommended that you read the article listed below to improve your understanding of Data Sources.
