Pulling data in to pop-up

[pmawsie]

Hi everyone,

I’m going to try and explain this as best as I can to hopefully make sense to someone!

I am creating an app and on one of the pages it will have a repeating group list of information, it will not show everything that’s stored under that item but will give a simple summary. I want the user to be able to click on an information button within their chosen item on the repeating group and it will then display a pop-up that will give them more information.

How do I get the information to show up on the pop-up as I can’t seem to get it to work.

I hope this makes sense?

Thanks in advance.

Hey @pmawsie, welcome!

Set the Type of Content of the Popup to the same Thing your Repeating Group is.

When the user clicks on a button in the repeating group (e.g. “view details”), create a workflow with 2 actions:

1. Show Popup
2. Display Data: element = popup, data to display = current cell’s Thing

Now, texts inside the popup can display anything related to the “parent group’s Thing’s [field]”

Checkout this tutorial too. Same concept: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcdD6UED_PA
