Hi guys - does anyone know the secret to retrieve detail page from nested lists??

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

If you know how - can you tell me if I am doing this right? πŸ˜“

It seemed easy enough - I creating a different tables inside a database in Airtable and set up the GET LIST for each (with different sorting parameters via API encoder from Airtable).... All of them work when I bind them to screens and show them as lists on the APP.

Now to retrieve details for an item on the list, I copied the list in question, shorten the URL deleting everything after "?", then I added /${id}

Inside the Header section, I have my authorisation and add "id" and the id value I see on the list (see picture).Β  When I test it, I get all the data I want returned.

BUT when I go to the binding page, none of these are selectable, everything is greyed out. Why??? Another list, where I did exactly the same, lets me BIND the data, but I got only the blank detail page without any bound data - (despite the fact that this used to work before I added the different sorting views.) Any ideas anybody?Β  πŸ’­

Hi !
Could be multiple things but have you changed the name of the selected data to match the {id} ?Β 
Btw, you should use a more complex name than "id" to avoid duplicate !

Robin - thanks for giving it a thought. You mane changing a unique name for "id" (like "abcid" in the header as well as in the request (-> ${abcid}) right? I did try thatΒ  - in the Headers as well as for the url retrieval - but to no success... πŸ€” do you have any other ideas where to check?

Ok I have it I guess, you should'nt put these info in the header section, but within the test values one !

  • hm... isn't that just for testing only? Anyway I tried but I still get the same results - I get return of data when I send it, but binding is still not possible except for "data" (which I enabled just for good luck) but that doesn't help either.

I am sure there is a very very simple solution... somewhere...?πŸ€•
