Hi there, I’m new to the bubble system and looking for a way to build a spreadsheet that will have the ‘google spreadsheet’ features.
The part I’m trying to figure out and need help with right now is:
How to give any ‘user’ (that sign up) the ability to add/edit new ‘rows’ to the spreadsheet on the front page (like in google spreadsheet).
(Probably more tricky) How to prevent users from Editing/deleting other user’s rows (so they can create/edits their own new spreadsheet rows but they can’t edit/change other user’s rows).
Does anyone have an idea how to achieve that with’ a bubble system? as I said I’m pretty new to the software so the more details the better.
If it’s not possible also let me know, and any ideas where to look for are welcome as well.
Hey, thanks for posting! Have you had a chance to check out the Handson Table plugin from our team? This should allow you to set up a good table view for your app’s data for your users. You can use privacy rules and conditional statements to ensure that data that a user shouldn’t have access to can’t be edited, and your user should be able to add data rows by creating new data via a form.
Thanks for the response eve, I did check the app you mention, I’m currently testing it out to hopefully get it done. mostly my main concern is about the second part:
“How to prevent users from Editing/deleting other user’s rows (so they can create/edits their own new spreadsheet rows but they can’t edit/change other user’s rows).”
I need one user to be able to add another ‘row’ but not be able to edit other ‘user’ row, so for example, if two users on, one writing a row, the second one can see it but not edit it, however, he can add another row under the last user row… seems a bit tricky to do so far, but It’s a lot to learn in general so I might miss something, that’s why I post here to see if there are any new ideas for this ‘specific’ issue.
Absolutely! You can leverage privacy rules for this – make sure that a user that didn’t create the row doesn’t have permission to make changes to the thing in the database, for example.
