Unable to process Events for Kanban board swimlane

Hello!

 

I continue to play, with little success, with the Kanban component in UI Builder. Has anyone else got experience of it? I've worked through this tutorial :https://www.servicenow.com/community/next-experience-articles/kanban-board-component-part-1-initial-... (both parts).

 

While I can create vertical lanes and cards, that I can click and drag and drop, I've had no luck with swimlanes.I can create them, but I'm unable to interact with them at all. I've built the events and wired them up as per the doc (and even fixed the issue where the UX Add-On Event Mapping isn't saved) but I'm not getting anything happen when I click a swimlane. I can't collapse it, or move it or generally get anything out of the payload for the event - it always shows as undefined:

I'm kinda stuck at this point. Without the swimlanes I can't really deliver what I'd hoped will have to abandon for a different solution.

 

Any pointers or help would be very appreciated.

Hi Spike, this is not an answer but just to say I have the same issue, all swim lane events come through as undefined, for example the expand and collapse of a swim lane fires the event with undefined. I think it's a bug in the swimlane component. I managed to solve other issues, moving cards between swim lanes, not just lanes, and even updating the cards backend data to store the new values, but all swim lane events are always undefined.

 

While the 2 articles are great, excellent in fact, but they don't go far enough, it is a very complex group of components, the lack of any technical documentation is annoying at best and it seems to me that there needs to be, at minimum, a new page template added which has everything pre-setup including card actions, adding cards, editing cards, archiving cards, all card template options and all of the impressive looking features found in the article here https://developer.servicenow.com/dev.do#!/reference/next-experience/xanadu/shared-components/now-vis... which has no technical implementation documentation at all. At minimum I ask, can we have part 3, 4 and 5 of these articles Gabby?@MGOPW  Demand for VTB's inside of Workspaces is very high here?

I found a solution to this and posted a very detailed solution but it seems to been either not approved or deleted.
