Repeat an Element

Render copies of the selected element for a collection.

Properties, data and actions

Part	Meaning
ID	The repeat identifier associated with the selected element’s repeat attribute. It is distinct from a fixed DOM id copied onto every output element.
Expression	The array/object/numeric source to repeat. Bind the collection itself, not the whole wrapper of a paged query response.
Item scope	Bind each repeated element’s content to the current item’s fields. $value is the item, $index is zero-based and $key is its source key/index.
Attribute behavior	The normal attribute repeat rebuilds repeated children when its watched source changes. Its advanced fast modifier reuses positional items; it is not a unique-record-key setting exposed by this simple inspector.

Worked example

Apply Repeat to one list item and use a products array as the expression. Bind its text to the current name. Verify one list item per product and distinct names. Keep the list container outside the repeated element.

Behavior and limits

Choose this when the selected element itself should repeat; choose Repeat Children when one wrapper such as tbody should remain. The attribute implementation limits normalized items to 10,000. Use pagination or a smaller data set instead of relying on one enormous rendered list.

Build the surrounding page flow

Use a practical App Connect guide when you need the surrounding page, input or server-data workflow.
