This guide assumes you have a basic familiarity with:
Building WebApp and Module Layouts on Siteglide using Liquid tags
HTML, including data-attributes
The quickest way to get started with the SiteBuilder Live Updates API is to install a SiteBuilder layout which already uses it. Look out for the teal 'Live-updates ready' tag on the layouts, install and modify at will.
Having said that, if you want to modify any other layout to start fetching live updates with the API, we'll show how to do that next.
The following markup example would work well in the wrapper.liquid
file of a webapp or module layout. The layout
and _model
variables will then be inherited from the tag used to output the layout in the page.
