Hey @stefansladdeneng1, nice to see you here! 👋
Not sure if you got an answer to this via the chat, but yes, I’d recommend going with the second option here and did all the data manipulation in a dedicated list variable, and then when you’re finished send that variable data to the list viewer to be displayed.
