Table data source: OR vs AND condition

clarence · 2025-04-04T14:38:49.538Z

Hi all, thanks in advance for any help,

ISSUE
Setting up an “OR” condition in a Table element (not repeating group).

DETAILS
I am setting up a table and would like to apply two different constraints with an OR condition. In the screenshot below, I’d like to populate the table with backgrounds where the owner is the current user OR the current user is an allowed user. I can only seem to do one or the other.

It seems like a simple and useful constraint to allow for “OR” vs “AND” constraints for a table.

QUESTION
Is there a way to set up this table element properly?

:merged with = OR

Use two searches, merged together.

Thanks! Very helpful as I didn’t even know about this “merged with”. For others who stumble upon this, here’s the manual describing merged with and other operations. https://manual.bubble.io/core-resources/data/operations-and-comparisons.
