How can I configure the "list - simple" component to refresh every X minutes?

I am wondering what might be needed so that we can configure a 'list - simple' component on a page to automatically refresh itself every 15 minutes?  I am referring to the "list - simple" component:

https://developer.servicenow.com/dev.do#!/reference/next-experience/yokohama/now-components/now-reco...

 

Unlike the Single score component, 'list - simple' does not offer a configuration for a real time updates, but I see it does have a property named Refresh requested (see above link).  This prop is described as an "Object containing a timestamp that can be passed down to trigger a refresh."

 

That sounds like a property that could be leveraged for making a refresh automatically occur on a fixed, repeated schedule (e.g., every 5 min.) but I have no idea what the script would look like, where it is defined, what events/handlers are needed, or whatever else needs configured in addition to this property (or even what the value of this prop should look like.)  Any assistance would be appreciated!  Thanks.

The simple list and connected list components don't support auto-refresh or refresh on a schedule, but the record list component supports the new live list functionality introduced in the Yokohama release which allows the list to auto-refresh when the data changes. The record list component bundle should be configurable to make it look similar to the simple list.
