There are several modes that a Simpli List View can be used in depending on the need.

App Page

Used when multiple object list views are to be made available. Very useful when data from multiple list views needs to be viewed quickly without going to multiple pages to find the data. Also useful for system administrators to view data from all available objects on one page.

This mode is typically used on LWC pages of type App Page where the page is formatted for a single region and the SLV component takes up the entire region. A drop down is provided where an object can be selected. A second drop down allows for the selection of a list view. The list view is then displayed. All SLV features are available in this mode.

Single Object List View

Used when list views from only a single object are to be made available on the component. This mode is typically used on LWC pages of type App Page where several list views for the same object may be needed to fulfill a function.

Single List View

Used when only one list view is made available on the component. This mode is typically used on LWC pages of type App Page where multiple list views are used together to filter for records based on both criteria of the list views and records chosen by the user.

Related List View

Used when one list view is made available on the component. This mode is typically used on LWC pages of type Record Page where the records displayed in the list view are related to the currently selected record on the page.

Split View

Used when the list view is displayed on one side of the screen where the Id of the selected record is passed to other components on the other side of the screen. The list can display a maximum of 4 fields. This mode is typically used on LWC pages of type App Page where the user works on multiple records of the same type in a short period of time.

Stand Alone

Used when arbitrary data outside of a Salesforce object is to be displayed. Useful for when disparate information from multiple sources needs to be brought together and displayed to the user. This mode can only be displayed on LWC pages of type App Page. Some functionality is not available for this mode. The data and column information is provided to the component in JSON format.
