Overview

A template representing a list of items.

Template Restrictions

In regards to template refreshes, as described in Screen.onGetTemplate(), this template is considered a refresh of a previous one if:
  • The previous template is in a loading state (see ListTemplate.Builder.setLoading(boolean)}, or
  • The template title has not changed, and the ItemList structure between the templates have not changed. This means that if the previous template has multiple ItemList sections, the new template must have the same number of sections with the same headers. Further, the number of rows and the title (not counting spans) of each row must not have changed.
  • For rows that contain a Toggle, updates to the title are also allowed if the toggle state has changed between the previous and new templates.
