## Data and privacy

This card uses its configured properties and live card data.

## Properties

For theme, background, accent and position, see [Common properties](/docs/cards/#common-properties).

Set static properties in `params`. Bind `data` to a project card data key for live values; that document holds only dynamic properties. Without a data key, put the complete configuration in `params`. Nested rows describe the contents of their parent property.

### Static properties

| Name | Type | Default | Values and limits | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `title` | string | `"Wait times"` | maxLength: `40` |  |
| `order` | string | `"listed"` | `"listed"`, `"shortest"`, `"longest"`, `"name"` | listed: as given. shortest or longest wait first, closed and unknown lines last. name: A to Z. |
| `moderateFrom` | integer | `15` | minimum: `1`; maximum: `500` | Minutes at which a wait stops being short. |
| `longFrom` | integer | `30` | minimum: `2`; maximum: `500` | Minutes at which a wait is long (always above moderateFrom). |
| `scaleMinutes` | integer | `60` | minimum: `10`; maximum: `480` | The wait that fills a bar. |

### Dynamic properties

| Name | Type | Default | Values and limits | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `lines` | array | `[]` | minItems: `0`; maxItems: `12` |  |
| `lines[].name` | string |  | minLength: `1`; maxLength: `40`; Required |  |
| `lines[].minutes` | integer |  | minimum: `0`; maximum: `999` | The estimated wait. 0 reads as no wait; left out, the line shows a dash. |
| `lines[].closed` | boolean | `false` |  |  |
| `lines[].note` | string | `""` | maxLength: `40` | A line under the name: a location, a lane, a reason. |
| `footnote` | string | `""` | maxLength: `120` |  |
