Hey idas7955 thanks for reporting. This bug will be presenting whenever trying to select a record list as a site page, so that is to be expected.

The bug is still being researched by our engineering department. I will update this thread when we have a fix!

Hi, it's also in "Create an application in 4 quick steps" in Appian Analysts course :)
Is there any way to follow for updates on this? I will try the workaround mentioned

Thank you for verifying the bug and opening a support case. The Read-only Grid component was a good substitute as well. I was working through the Developer Learning Path when I encountered this bug and it is very helpful to know alternatives. This may create a barrier to some new learners when they hit "Appian Step-by-Step #6" in the online course "Sites: Engage Logged-In Users".

It definitely seems to be a product bug. I have created a support case.

As a workaround, the Read-only Grid component provides the same functionality as a record list. So you could create an interface that includes a record-backed grid and use that as a site page.

Hey SnowmanG thank you for taking the time to explore the beta! And thank you for providing a lot of detail in your post. I'm looking into the issue.

If anyone else has experienced anything similar please let me know!

EDIT: Just as an update, I was able to replicate it
