Overview
The List View component displays records from different objects in a tabular format, organized into rows and columns. It offers features such as pagination, search, sorting, and data export, enabling users to perform various operations on the displayed data.
Although multiple List Views can be created for each object, each List View is linked to a single object.

We have an onload event that runs when the component is loaded.
For example, when a form is loaded, you can choose fields to be prepopulated by mapping field values using input mapping at the time the form component is loaded.
Input Mapping
Whenever an event is triggered and you want to pass data to destinations such as models, variables, or components, you can use input mapping to achieve that.
After clicking on Pencil
icon, user can view the screen to set Input Mapping
