Combining query question into one results page?

Idea
1

Hi,

First time post. Spent some time searching through the forum but I could not find an answer.

I want to create a page that allows me to search for one thing and have the results displayed in a single repeating group.

For example:

  1. User queries on an email address
  2. Query would use several Blockspring APIs, FullContact, etc. but display results in one window on a single page.
  3. Results are saved based on the email address used in the query (results would be accessible on a separate page)

Can someone please point me in the right direction… would appreciate any help.

Thanks

Welcome Mathew :slightly_smiling:

You want a repeating group with merged data.

Have a look at the :merged function in the reference.

It looks to be a bit of a struggle to merge multiple API calls in a single search, so the thing to do would be set up a custom state for each API (make it a list) and then Set the states in the work flow. The repeating group would then merge these all together.

So… Custom States, Repeating Group, :merge would be the way you could go.

If you start building this in the forum app it will be easier to help ! This is fairly complex for a first attempt.
