interpreting redux-form formValues() documentation and usage

I am referencing the redux-form documentation here https://redux-form.com/7.4.2/docs/api/formvalues.md/






 
const record = { a: 'foo', b: 'bar', listOfObjs: [{ x: 1, y: 2 }, { x: 3, y: 4 }] };





I am using redux-form to allow users to update fields of a record. I have Fields that take an input updates the source and represents the data correctly in the Field components. One of the properties of the record represented by the form is an array of objects (listOfObjs in the above example). I have subforms on this form that allow me to update objects stored in the array. This works as expected as well. By altering the value of the Fields on the subform, the store for the Form is updated, the Form is triggered as dirty and a subsequent save operation saves the data and updates the store.



I'm using react-table as a component in the Form to represent the data in this Array property of my record (listOfObjs). react-table takes in an array of objects as the input for what the table represents. I am able to pass the record's values into the Form component and onto react-table but this represents the initial values for my record rather than the current values for the form in the store that would include pre-saved changes. This means the table's values are only changed after the form is saved. I believe I need to use formValues to get array for react-table and according to the documentation linked above I would use formValues('listOfObjs')(MyItemizedList). I need help understanding what is represented by "MyItemizedList" in the example documentation. It comes from nowhere in the example. Specifically my question is, what is this variable supposed to represent?
