Did anybody manage to create a favourite list?

Archived from the Bravo community forum (2021–2026). Some answers may refer to older versions of Bravo.

Hi guys - sorry i am new at this space and I am coming not from coding... I have been working my way through most of the tutorials but what I just can't get to solve is the simple task of creating a 'like' list. One tutorial in the documentation asking to send PATCH request to airtable would only return a 422 error. The other and only tutorial on favourite lists  (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtlbn-thek8) is so confusing and shows pages like scarfapp (that are only available in Spanish ???) ... I searched the net for any other tutorial or idea to get me on the right path for days now but no success. I assume the next step is to find out a) how to create an automated user list  b) how to have airtable keep records of user likes and c)  how to get this Patch command to actually work (!)... If anybody has been on this path or any ideas how to move forward, I would be grateful for any hints or links... right now I feel like quitting Bravo altogether ...   Thanks guys!!! J

That's great if you got it to work. Can you tell me where I can follow in your footsteps? Downloading the bible App won't give me all the answers I fear... 😅

Its a length process to explain, and involves lot of steps, if you followed the tutorial let me know exactly where it goes wrong? 
give us some steps that you've followed and what is the issue

Wow. thanks RK! Well - first off - is my thinking to tackle this correct? -- 1) Set up a system that recognises users ID ?
2) find a way (I assume through PATCH)  to have a record from each user sending his 'like' or 'unlike' to be stored on that list... 
3) Retrieve that info for each user after login?

Yes.. if you already configured above steps correctly, you are already completed 50% of the process

Haha! I WISH!!! So if I start with Step 1 - recording user logins - is there any tutorial you recommend to serve this purpose?

R March 3, 2023

I can help you remotely , If you are okey with it?
Sorry I don't have any tutorials to share with you now.

Oh wow really? That would be a God-sent... I would love that! What time zone are you in?

R March 4, 2023

UTC+04:00..let me know how I could reach to you, I use Discord or Whatsapp.
or if you have other way to communicate let me know

Hey RK - happy Sunday! I am UTC+9 Hours - in Tokyo (!) ... I guess whats app or a chat via google meets would work? Let me know if / when you have some time next week... that would be great!
