### Remarks

This action will create a carousel containing as many cards as records in the currently [active query](https://docs.xenioo.com/actions-and-operations/database/query-collection-data).

The dynamic contents of each card can be set using standard dynamic parsing variables referencing the **cursor\_current\_record** variable. If, as an example, we would like to display the field "Title" of our current collection query inside the title of the card we would just specify it like this:

```
{{cursor_current_record.Title}}
```

Any other current variable is of course supported in all parsed fields.

### Trigger

On Render. This action will trigger any child operation as soon as the card is rendered.

### Variables

This action does not produce any variable.
