Linking lists to menus

This article explains how to set up a menu item to link to a list.

How do I link to a list from a menu?

Linking out to a list from a menu item is as simple as entering the list's ID during menu configuration. When a user selects the menu item in their app, the list is displayed. 

Navigate to the menu configuration area. To do this, select DISPLAY, followed by Menus.

Note: You can link to lists from both primary menus and sub-menus.

  1. Start by selecting the menu type you want to configure, from the left-hand navigation (Header, Account, or Footer.)

  2. Next, select the required menu variant.

  3. Enter information into the relevant fields:

    • enter label: Specify a title for your menu item.

    • enter destination: Enter /list/{id} (this generates the select list field.)

    • enter list: Select the list you wish to display.
