User updating information

benjamin.bm.andrews · 2024-07-11T17:23:45.921Z

This has perplexed me a bit.

In this instance I have an app where users can add ingredients, like essential oils, and identify different attributes it possesses. For instance lavender promotes relaxation.

Ive set up the add data and show data side of things easy enough but how do I go about users being able to update the information. Much of the options are multiselect dropdowns.

I can put the inputs as autobind but the multiselect I dont know how to do the equivalent. I can do a workflow but I want users to update not have to reenter the already existing data. Like I want them to see item 1, item 2 and be able to add item 3.

Is this possible? if so how would I go about it?

You can set the initial options from the DB that the user had already entered, and then whatever more they type, can be saved to the DB itself.
Let me know if this works or if I might have misunderstood something

Thats basically what i want to do. Im just not sure how to do that when it comes to dropdowns, in this case the multiselect ones.

Cheers. Making appointments doesnt really work for me, I have a really erratic sleeping pattern due to what they are thinking is narcolepsy. So I cant be sure I will make it to the meeting. Ill see if someone can help me via posting.

Uh oh, no worries mate. I’ll try to setup a demo for you but if someone beats me to it, then that’s great

Hey all, Im still looking for an answer to this. I would like users to be able to see the existing data in a dropdown, but then change the dropdown and it update, like it does with autobind. I would also like to do the same with multiselect dropdowns.
