Creating a dynamic amount of rows in repeating groups

Need help Database

Hello, I would like to know how to create a process that allows users to create rows but the amount of rows is not preset. They appear as the data has been input.

Make a repeating group with full list…set the datasource to be the list of things the user creates from the input

You can define a data type for your repeating group and leave its “Source” field empty.

Then, when you have an item to add, just do a workflow: Element > Repeating Group > Display Data and for data to display just say:

RG’s list of whatever :plus item whatever_item

Watch this video from about 15 mins 30 secs:

There are other ways to do this of course, such as setting the RG’s source to be some empty custom state and then :plus item your items to that, but this should give you the general idea.

Awesome this helped a lot.

How do I only allow the full list to only be the new uploads the user made?

Thank you for this great resource.

Could you explain how to give an empty custom state as the data source? I couldn’t find anything on this
