Using the List Control API
Updated over a week ago

It allows you to control the items from a Dynamic List. This action moves the list index to its first item. When it reaches the last step, further calls to this endpoint will have no effect.

To control cycling items within a dynamic list via API, follow the steps below.

To activate the Integration ID within the dynamic list, it is necessary to use the pagination filter within the list.
