Research direction

Start by locating the Content Explorer component and tracing its existing folderId prop and child-item loading path. Define the expected behavior for an array of itemIds from the issue examples, then verify that the explorer renders those items and preserves existing folder-based behavior.

Description

enhancement

Describe the solution you'd like
Currently, the Content Explorer only accepts a folderId to render a list of child items. Add a prop to accept an array of itemIds would provide the ability to render results from the search endpoint, trash, task assignments, collection items, file version retentions, legal holds assignments, etc.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Create a custom list component.
