Introduction

Unlike the Inbox Menu which is limited to its own set of predefined columns, the Datalist Inbox Userview Menu allows you to define your own datalist columns to display important values for your list records.

Datalist

Datalist to load.

This is especially important when JDBC Datalist Database Binder is used to query the selected datalist's records.

Ensure that the "id" of the records in the datalist matches the process instance ID or record ID of the actual assignment.

In Joget DX, process instance IDs generated is now a UUID, instead of a predictable ID format previously used in Joget v6.
