Short answer: “missing row id”  
That block can be used right after you create a row to a table bound to a DVL, when you get as argument **row id** also, used there.  
Just an example:

Of course, you can also use it later, after creating table, but only if you keep saved that **row id** into a variable, to refer to it when needed.

`Data Viewer List` will always be bound to a `Data Source`. The block you shared in your first post will change one single row and after you supply the `row id` to it.

If you want to change the color of all rows then you have 2 options:

- Create your own `Custom Data Viewer List Layout` and in the design of your layout you can choose any color.

- Use the `list of values...` block to get the `row id` of all rows and use the loop block `for each item in list...` to change the color.

</div>

last argument in purple block must be row’s ID … thats the key on @muneer `s example  
So, list o values in “desired column”, in table that contains that column,… and last … ID

Hello, I am trying to change the text color of my data viewer list and can’t find the `list of values` block. I’m using Google Sheets data source if that matters. The documentation isn’t really helpful. Where is this located? I can’t seem to find it under the `Core` \> `Lists` or anywhere else. Any assistance would be appreciated.
