Nested repeating group for a newbie

Greetings, fellow Bubblers.

I’m new to this (~1 month of playing around and trying to learn the platform). I am working on a project that allows users to create reusable workflows/processes (not Bubble workflows). The basic structure is that a Workflow contains one or more Tasks, which, in turn, have smaller “to-dos” called Checklist Items. The point is for a user to be able to create these Workflows, adding Tasks and Checklist Items as needed, and then save the Workflow to be used as needed in the future. I would like to present this in a tree view, if possible; something like this:

Sub-tasks at this point may not be something realistically achievable. Database structure as follows:


All of that to say, I’m having a difficult time with the nested repeating group displaying the tree view to the user. This is my silly sample:

Thanks in advance!

So on Task data type you have Parent Workflow related to Workflow which is good, this will allow you first RG to be a search of Workflows. Then you can add a nested RG that will be a search for Tasks whose parent workflow equals current cells workflow. Then you can add a nested RG to that RG of type text and be current cells tasks list of checklist.

Thanks, @boston85719! That’s exactly what I was working on. Good to know I wasn’t too far off base. It seems I stumbled with Parent Group Task and Parent Group text and whatnot trying to get the data displayed. Looks like I have it sorted as of this morning. Thanks again for the quick response.
