Nested Lists - Isn't there a mistake in the documentation?

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

Hey guys,

i've been struggling a bit with the nested lists, while following the guide and after reading multiple threads on this forum, I get a feeling that there's a mistake as it says:

_We'll change the request URL and set this one:
_https://api.airtable.com/v0/YOUR_TABLE_ID/Cities?filterByFormula=search('${region_name}'%2Carrayjoin(region_name))
which makes the whole request not working properly, but while I change it to:
https://api.airtable.com/v0/YOUR_BASE_ID/Cities?filterByFormula=search('${region_name}'%2Carrayjoin(region_name))
the whole operation goes fine.

So looks like instead of YOUR_TABLE_ID there should actually be YOUR_BASE_ID

If my assumption is correct, maybe it's good to change the guide so that it wouldn't mislead others?

Also, in the same thread, it's actually a bit knotty to understand the first step, as you're not showing on the screen how the records we're about to change look by default.

The "change the Name of data path .data.records[].fields.region with the variable name region_name" can also be misinterpreted, as one can think that needs to input the "region_name" variable in the "Path" column

Additional question:

while following the above guide, i managed to get through all the steps and all works fine for me, expect from the "Region Cities" screen's headline which is supposed to be changed based on the chosen Region on the previous screen. 

Look like the created field region_name is not available for me. Any ideas how can I fix this? 🙏

in case you'd check the app is called: "World Cities (copy)" and the the API "World Cities"
