DefaultEntityPresentationApiRenderer.async

Home > @backstage/plugin-catalog > DefaultEntityPresentationApiRenderer > async

Whether to request the entity from the catalog API asynchronously.

Signature:

async?: boolean;

Remarks

If this is set to true, entity data will be streamed in from the catalog whenever needed, and the render function may be called more than once: first when no entity data existed (or with old cached data), and then again at a later point when data is loaded from the catalog that proved to be different from the old one.
