How To work Flow Something Help

Need help
1

Hi, Thanks in advance for any advice.

I Can’t figure this out. I have a parents group that goes from group to next group perfect.

I Have a button that opens a new input form.

In the workflow, I “create a new form” and tied it to the user.

I have 2 databases “Forms” and then “All forms”

What I am trying to do is when they create a new Form, I want it to be a part of their list automaticity in their “All Forms” database.

So I keep trying to create a new thing “All Forms” where it will add the unique ID of their “forms” individually.

With the condition of, add the forms unique id to the “All forms” if they already have an All Forms Unique ID"

Everything I have tried no work.

Any Simple ideas Im missing?

Thanks

My suggestion, in the DB create a thing under “All forms” name it “form” make it a list, and it’s data type should be “form” since you already have that existing in the DB…
So whenever a new “form” is created by an existing user, you simply “make changes to"All forms” then you add the newly created form to the list…

Thank you for responding.

In my simple thinking, that is the exact thing I thought would work. But I Keep seeing red.

Before, I created a new “All Forms” which I called “Package” like you advised.

To test, I created another one.

  1. “Package” is a Package < what I have been trying to do.
  2. “Package 2” is a list of All forms. Trying your advice.

Seems like everything I try … Red.

I can go into the database and add the package unique ID to the form manually but I need it obviously need to add it automatically.

The question is, and just trying to figure it out, Is my issue, that when they sign up as a user, should I be creating a package ID then in the database.

Then just add to it on the forms workflow.?

Or should something work here? I’m stumped, thanks for any advice.

I haven’t fully evaluated your situation but it looks like you are trying to ADD a list when you are looking for a single item.

If you are looking for a list you can use add list or change package 2 to a list.

Another solution is creating a packages table and adding an index field to assign an order to your packages.

Thank you for responding, package 2 is a list.

Are you trying to add multiple items or just one?

Thanks again, Just the one. The form entry is one at a time,

The page before, they push a button to add a form,

So the first thing I did was,

Workflow " create a new form, user being the parent group user. Display data in the next group, etc.

That all seems to work fine.

My issue is, if it’s their first form, I need to create a “All Forms ID” or add this newly created form to their list of forms in the “All forms ID”.

Just can’t see it yet.

Yeah you see the workflow action to create a new form, add another workflow action which will be to

Modify a thing (Do a search All forms:user =current user) then add result of step one with an only when condition that current user All forms is not empty…

Another workflow action this time around with the only when current user All forms empty, now you “set list” of result of step one and not "add list " as in the prev. action.

Note in the DB you must have linked FORM(list) to ALL FORM data type for this approach to work…

I hope you get it
