public abstract @NonNull RemoteWorkContinuation then(@NonNull List<OneTimeWorkRequest> work)

Adds new OneTimeWorkRequest items that depend on the successful completion of all previously added OneTimeWorkRequests.

Parameters
`@NonNull List<OneTimeWorkRequest> work`	One or more `OneTimeWorkRequest` to add as dependents

Returns
`@NonNull RemoteWorkContinuation`	A `RemoteWorkContinuation` that allows for further chaining of dependent `OneTimeWorkRequest`s

Added in 2.5.0

public final @NonNull RemoteWorkContinuation then(@NonNull OneTimeWorkRequest work)

Adds new OneTimeWorkRequest items that depend on the successful completion of all previously added OneTimeWorkRequests.

Parameters
`@NonNull OneTimeWorkRequest work`	One or more `OneTimeWorkRequest`s to add as dependents

Returns
`@NonNull RemoteWorkContinuation`	A `RemoteWorkContinuation` that allows for further chaining of dependent `OneTimeWorkRequest`s
