 * Hi all, please advice me how to work with block variation and template. In template
   variation core/group I need to insert a specific core/list variation. I couldn’t
   find any hints on how to do this in the documentation.

 * The procedure is actually described in the manual: [https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/reference-guides/block-api/block-variations/](https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/reference-guides/block-api/block-variations/)
 * You must specify the “core/list” block using the examples there.
 * I also found this article very helpful: [https://fullsiteediting.com/lessons/block-variations/](https://fullsiteediting.com/lessons/block-variations/)

 * I’ve read all these articles. There is no answer to my question. To clarify, 
   here is an example.
   I have a variation`wp.blocks.registerBlockVariation('core/
   heading', { name: 'heading-variation-1', title: 'Heading Variation 1', attributes:{
   className: 'is-heading-variation-1', level: 3, },})Now I want to add this variation
   to the InnerBlocks.const tpl = [ [ 'core/image', { } ], …, [ 'heading-variation-
   1', {}]];And it doesn’t work. And it doesn’t work with allowedBlocks. What am
   I doing wrong? Or is there no such functionality?

 * It might be good to ask this very specific question to the Gutenberg team: [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues)
