How often do you make use of the app data in bubble.io?
Here i wanted to retrieve my “most recent” order and thought it would be my first item but actually buble.io refers to last item as the database recently created
By default, Bubble returns search results sorted in ascending order by creation date, so the first item is the oldest item, and the last item is the most recent. You can change the sort field and the ascending/descending order, which will also change which items appear as first/last.
yea, i was just pointing it out to people who might not be fully aware.
Yeah, I use app data quite a bit, especially during testing or when something breaks. And yep, Bubble’s “:first item” isn’t always the newest, it just means the first item in the list based on how it’s sorted. So if you want the most recent one, you’ll need to sort the search by Created Date (descending) and then pick :first item. Caught me off guard too the first time.
