Is there a reason you’re using the API blocks instead of the built-in Data Source blocks? See my response to your other topics here: [Querying an Airtable base - #3 by tatiang](https://community.thunkable.com/t/querying-an-airtable-base/2577247/3).

Is it mainly so that you can retrieve data from multiple tables?
