Repeating group is populating with data before a selection is made

Need help
1

Hello, new user here and having some trouble figuring out a solution for this problem.

I’m just trying to make a simple app to keep track of shipments. I have a repeating group that is supposed to populate with products based which shipment is selected from a dropdown. The dropdown itself is populated based on which user is logged in. The problem I’m having is that when the page first loads it automatically populates the repeating group before anything is selected from the dropdown, which results in it showing products from all shipments including ones not even related to that user.

I’m sure I’ll need to provide more info, just not sure what exactly might be needed to figure this out so let me know what I need to provide.

Thanks!

Use a workflow instead of the “Data source”.

So … as in the “Data Source” box here.

Set up a workflow when the Dropdown’s data changes. to “Display List”.

Seems like that did the trick. Thank you so much!

I am trying to do something similar, to act as an admin (separate admin page) and from drop down to pick a user, and to populate his info in repeating group. I just cant populate it…

What ever I try with work flow or with Data source, it is just do let me pull data for that one specific user. Actually… no data is visible

BTW, If you are wondering about privacy settings, I made privacy all set for this, if user Admin status is Yes, he can do same as user for his own data.

Can you maybe help me?
