Need help creating seating grid order card

[ubbitz]

I have a 4x3 grid representing a seating layout.
The seat numbers are being populated via repeating group and a data table of all the seat numbers.

I have one pop element on the page with a dropdown of drink options and a submit button.
I have the dropdown pulling drink options via a ‘Drinks’ data table.

I want to be able to tap a seat and have the pop up card display, with the ability to select a drink, and when tapping submit, the drink selection and seat number that I tapped be submitted to a data table that I’m calling ‘Drink Orders’ with Drink Name and Seat Number columns filled in respectively.

So far, I’m able to tap any seat in the layout and the the popup card displays, so far so good.
I’ve set up a workflow so that when tapping submit, the drink order populates over in the Drink Orders data table’s Drink Name column.

However, I am not able to get the current seat number that I tapped to also populate over in the Data Table’s Seat Number column. I’ve tried every option that I know of, similar to setting up the drink name to populate, but the seat number will not.

Is this possible, am I missing something?

Hi there, @ubbitz… what does the workflow look like for showing the popup? Do you have a workflow action to display the current cell’s seat number in the popup?

Best…

One of the things I tried to do was display the current cell’s seat number in the popup, but wasn’t able to figure out how to do that.

Here are a couple screenshots showing the workflow for showing the popup:

Set the popup’s type of content to the same type of content as the repeating group. Then, add a second step in the workflow, and use the Display data action to send the current cell’s seat number to the popup.

Here is what happens when I try to do that:

Leave the data source for the popup empty.

Okay, I left the Popup’s data source empty. The screenshots show what I ran into trying to add the Display data action to send the current cell’s seat number to the popup.

Just send the Currrent cell's Seat or change the type of content for the popup to number and send the actual seat number like you are showing in the screenshot.
