Advanced Bubble users, what's a neat trick you recently discovered?

Using the expression Current cell's index can be very handy at times on repeating groups. The problem is, when a group is then added into a cell of a repeating group, it appears the Current cell's indexexpression disappears from the list, not being available to select.

While this is true, its not available in the list, you can still copy the dynamic expression and paste in where needed e.g. content, conditions, workflows…

Here is a hacky workaround, that appears to be working fine as it stands of this post date:


Current cell's index doesn’t appear in the list - this text element is inside 2 parent groups

Here we copy the working expression of Current cell's index inside the root of the rg

Then, we can paste the expression into a element

Dynamically this expression appears fine and doesn’t flag as an app error

Can be used on a condition example
