Repeating group showing data "list of text" in same table separated with ","

Greeting to all

@neerja @NigelG @romanmg

If anybody could explain why the repeating group shows “list of text” data when sourced from database in the same table separated.

But, the same when done adding text to list to a custom state shows in separate table.

Is there a particular way to get/post the list separated in different table in the RG when getting from database.

Thank you in advance.

Hi @veshoe231,

I assume you’re seeing a list of texts in one repeating group cell. Instead, you want each text in its own cell, is that right?

Could you post a screenshot of your Repeating Group’s setup?

Sounds like your RG source needs to be adjusted. The data type should = the data Thing and source should = “Search for Thing.” Then, inside the cell, you can add a text element to display “Current cell’s [text field]”

But I’m making a few assumptions. If you’re able to post a screenshot, that would help!

GREETINGS @romanmg & thank you for the quick response…

Well a easy quest i guess… but … little mystic for a non-coder

You can pull out a list of texts that are separated by commas using a regex.

@NigelG thank you …

but it din’t work actually … current cell goes blank with [^,\s][^\,]*[^,s]*

I suspect it may be the way you are pulling back the data, as you are getting a “list of lists” as far as Bubble is concerned because it is a search.

Put the RG inside a group, then pull back a single track as the Group’s type. Then run the regex on the single thing.

Example of it working here …

Confirm that it doesn’t work if it is a “list of lists”.
