Getting Data From a Repeating Group to a Popup

thelongterm · 2025-01-16T00:46:31.669Z

Hi Everyone,

I’ve completed 99% of the app, but I am struggling to sort out the final thing. I was hoping someone could help me. It involves sending data from a repeating group to a popup that uses custom states.

I’ve also made a Loom video that explains my issue. Please find the link below.

I have a popup for adding goals, where users can add their future spending goals and income events. The popup manages four spending goal and income event types, each with its own data type. I’ve listed them below.

· Spending - Financial Independence Goal
· Income – Planned Savings
· Income – State Pension
· Spending & Income – Other Goals

The first three data types exhibit a one-to-one relationship (1 User 1 Goal). The final data type has a one-to-many relationship, as users can have multiple other spending or income goals unrelated to the first three data types (for instance, one-off spending in the future or annual rental income). I have used custom states based on user selection to display each goal type.

Users can add goals and income events using the Popup. They can do that for all four data types. The saved goals are shown on the goals page. Because the other goals have a one-to-many relationship, I use a repeating group to list all goals. However, when editing the Other Goals, the data is not passing from the repeating group to the Popup add goals when the custom state is “Fill”

If someone could let me know what i’m doing wrong, I would appreciate it.

If the data is correctly populated at the popup level but not in the input inside it, there might be a missing link when cascading the data from the popup to the input. You might want to to check the value of the input’s parent group and tracing the data cascading to the next parents until you’re certain it’s connected to where the data is set in the popup (in the popup’s custom state?)

Hope that helps
