How to set list slot in custom action

I’m trying to append values to list slot but failed. It seems no documentation is available for such behavior.

slot rearrange_answers only get the latest text from the tracker and I don’t know how to append it to list slot.

here is my custom code action.py from rasa_core_sdk import Action from rasa_core_sdk.events import AllSlotsReset, Restarted, SlotSet

class ActionSlotReset(Action):
    def name(self):
    return 'action_slot_reset'

def run(self, dispatcher, tracker, domain):
    return [AllSlotsReset()]

class ActionRestarted(Action):
""" This is for restarting the chat"""
    def name(self):
        return "action_restart"

def run(self, dispatcher, tracker, domain):
    return [Restarted()]


class ActionSlotSet(Action):
    def name(self):
        return "action_slot_set"

def run(self, dispatcher, tracker, domain):
    answer = tracker.latest_message.get("text")
    return [SlotSet("rearrange_answers", answer)]

class ActionCheckAnswer(Action):
    def name(self):
        return "action_check_answer"

def run(self, dispatcher, tracker, domain):
    text = tracker.latest_message.get("text")
    answers = tracker.get_slot("rearrange_answer_1").lower()

I don’t know how to set rearrange_answers list slot from the user text message. Also, entity values are lost after action_listen is executed every time during a story.
