Unable to see the repeating group data in Popup Data source

Hi, I have created a repeating group and I have displayed data from database and it is working perfect. Now I want to add an edit functionality to modify the data. I already have a “Popup A” which is used to add entry to data base. Now to modify the data I have created another similar “Popup B”.

Below is the steps I followed:

  • Below is the screenshot for workflow of “Pencil icon” (to edit data)

    I have used Dispay data first and selected the Popup B and data to display as “Current cell’s Price Comp”

When I opened the Popup B details I couldn’t find the “Current cells’s Price Comp” to assign it

Hence I am unable to show the details in the popup.

Hi @srujanmaddula

You don’t need to set the data source of the popup to achieve this. The data source is essentially set using the Display data action as you have correctly done.

To retrieve the information you looking for:

  1. Select the appropriate Input Field in the popup
  2. Click Initial Content
  3. Set Initial Content to ‘Parent Group x’. So if you selected the first input field then once you’ve selected the field Initial Content, you can dynamically display ‘Parent Groups Item Name’.
  4. Repeat for every input field.

Let me know if you need additional help

Hi, betteredbritain

I did as you suggested below is the setting I have done:

Below is the output:

I got the Item name in the pop up as “asdf” and not “MS Flat” as the expected behaviour. “asdf” is the default placeholder

Hi, betteredbritain

I understood where was the problem. The input text in the popup is placed in a group and I didnt assign the data source to it. Once I assigned the data to the group it is working perfect. Thanks

Great stuff

Anytime!
