Sorry if this sounds rather simple, but I just can’t seem to figure out how this is not working… I’m trying to access a list of values from my Airtable database, I thought something like this would do the trick, but just can’t seem to get it to work… Is the below the correct way to use “list of va…

You’ll want to use the Get Row or Get All Rows blocks. @darren has a good tutorial video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V61Oo6TCwnw .

Hi @tatiang ! That was actually very helpful! I was using Airtable as a DataSource, and that didn’t come with any of the options (Get Row, Get All Rows)… Do you have time for another question? I went through the tutorial to add Airtable. However, I’m still having issues with accessing values by …

@jared Nope, not at all… I created a list variable called addrList and assigned basic values of “1, 2, 3”. I then called GetAllRows to get Address_Street values and add each value to the list. So I would expect “1, 2, 3, xxxx, xxxx, xxxx”. As you can see in the screenshot, the variable still jus…

Put the “from mqDistance set Text” block inside the GetAllRows block. Otherwise, it’s going to run before your loop finishes. If you move it inside (below the loop block), I would expect to see the value of the last address_street in your AirTable sheet.
