For mobile deployment, I cannot seem to find a way to send data between views, in my web app you could click on a playlist and that would take you to the playlist page and pulls the unique ID in the URL and show the relevant information from that data.
Does anyone know how to send/display data through navigation, or do you need an individual view for each playlist etc?
faced the same challenge and made this workaround in the meantime:
I’d basically setup a data field for the user type called UserPlaylistCache (type text, playlist or whatever your type is).
Then whenever a button is tapped to navigate to a new view: Make Changes to User.
And then in the view, I’d reference it by current users UserPlaylistCache.
Not sure this is the best way but works pretty well for me so far
Thanks heaps, I like the work around, I will do it like this for now, seems like the most straight forward way to do it.
Thanks again, I have been stuck.
Views have “Properties“ which you can use to pass data between them.
On the appearance tab of each view (Say playlist page/view), there’s a button “Add New Property“ which you can use to define the type of data (either dynamic, single or a list) you want to store or receive on that view.
Then, on your songs or explore playlist page/view, once you click on a playlist..
You can setup a go to view workflow action to the current playlist view and define the property you want to send (Say current playlist item)
That is the way to go.
Hi,
Do you know how once you send this property to the next view, how that view does a search for data for the playlist to display on a short list.
For example, I am sending data for a playlist three options in a data set, ‘morning’, ‘mid-day’ and ‘evening’ playlists, but then when I get to the playlist view, I cannot seem to get the data to view for songs linked to that playlist in a ‘short list’ repeating group.
Previously I would send a ‘x’ parameter in the URL and then retrieve that ‘x’ URL in the playlist and display data related to that specific parameter, cannot figure out how to do it with the new Mobile Deployment process
