Bundle Cover not shown when first - google-mirror-api

Question

I have a bundle with a timeline card inside. The main timeline card which I want to be the cover is set to be the cover(isBundleCover=true). However when the cards are inserted and the user taps to see or looks up to activate the display the inner bundle card(not cover) is shown first. Is there a way to show the cover first? Is this acting as intended? I've tried changing the order of cards inserted and did not make a difference.

Answer 1

I think you are halfway there, I would add the bundle cover last and then isBundleCover=True.
See below.
To bundle timeline items, create them with the same value for bundleId. The most recently added item is the bundle's cover card.
Note: To set a specific timeline item as the bundle cover card, set its isBundleCover property to true.

Appears this a bug. Create ticket on tracker:

Answer 3

This is expected behavior. When bundles are inserted you will be displayed the most recently inserted card within the bundle.
If you'd like to display a collection of cards, consider using HTML Pagination instead. Your markup for a card might look something like this:
<article class="cover-only">
<section>
<p>Cover page</p>
</section>
</article>
<article>
<section>
<p>Second page</p>
</section>
</article>
<article>
<section>
<p>Third page</p>
</section>
</article>
