このタスクについて

This example shows how to bind data to components so you can display record information in custom layouts. For example, you can present records as selectable cards rather than in a traditional list view. For this procedure, the data comes from the Incident table.

図 : 1. Final layout preview

1. Dropdown: Filters visible cards by caller name.
2. Card Base Container: Holds individual card content and enables click interaction.
3. Heading: Displays the record number.
4. Label value: Displays the caller name with a static label ("Caller: ").
5. Stylized text: Displays the short description of the record.
6. Highlighted value: Displays the record priority level with color styling applied through a script.

This procedure uses UI Builder components to create dynamic, interactive layouts. For more information on how to configure components, see:

手順

Part 1: Build the card layout

Add a repeater linked to a data resource and create the card containers that display each record.

1. Navigate to All > Now Experience Framework > UI Builder.
2. Open an experience to work in or create an experience by selecting Create > Experience.
   See Configure how users interact with your applications in UI Builder for more information on creating experiences.
3. Create a page from scratch.
   For more information about how to create a page, see Create a page in UI Builder.
4. Create a data resource to pull records from the Incident table.

   Data resources expose data from tables and records to the page. In this example, we add a data resource to pull records from the incident table so we can display them using components. For more information, see Add and configure data resources to a page.

   1. In the Data and scripts drawer, under Data resources, select + Add data resource.
   2. Select Look up multiple records and then select Add.
   3. Select the look_up_multiple_records_1 ID to open the Data resource details form.
   4. Replace the text in the Data resource label field with Incident lookup.
      The Data resource ID field auto-populates.
   5. Select Apply.
   6. In the Edit Incident lookup dialog, fill in the fields:

      Field	Action
      Table	Enter incident, then select it from the list.
      Return fields	Select + Add. Enter Caller, select it to add it to the Selected column, then clear the search box. Repeat the above step for Priority and Short description. Select Apply.
      Max results	Enter 25.

      

   7. Select the X in the upper right to close the dialog.
   8. Select Save.
5. Add a single column layout to hold the components.
   1. In the content tree, under Body, select + Add content.
   2. Select Single column and then select + Add.
   3. With Column 1 selected in the content tree, navigate to Layout in the configuration panel and set the Direction to Row.
      
6. Add and configure a repeater on your page with data binding.

   Data binding is the process of associating data exposed by a data resource with a component. In this example, we bind the results of our Incident lookup data resource to the Data array property of the repeater component. For more information, see Connect data components.

   1. In the content tree, under Column 1, select + Add content.
   2. Enter Repeater, then select it in the toolbox and then select Add.
   3. Select Cancel to close the preset window.
   4. Keeping Repeater 1 selected, in the configuration panel, hover over the Data array field and select the bind data icon .
      
   5. In the Bind data to Data array dialog, under Data types, select Data resource.
   6. Select the Incident lookup pill, then double-click or drag the results pill to move it to the area above.
