Cannot get data from a table to transmit between screens

Hi all

I’m struggling with an app I’m designing. On the screen “Top 100” I’m trying to have it so that when a user clicks on any item in the text viewer grid, they navigate to my “Text Viewer” screen and the app displays various bits of data relating to the item clicked, i.e. Creator Name, Title, Text etc.

All of this information is stored in a local data table called Texts Table. I’m using the RowID of the clicked item on the data viewer grid and then trying to pull out values from the table on the “Text Viewer” screen.

However I’m only getting null values in the various label fields on the “Text Viewer” screen, as if it isn’t retrieving anything from my data source. I added a test label to display the RowID on the top right of the Text Viewer screen and it always reads “null.” I’d attach screenshots of the design and the blocks for both screens but I don’t know how to do that (upload on this isn’t working).

In addition, I cannot get any screen to write data to my local data tables (using create row in…), and can only ever use data I have manually input. Should I give up on Thunkable’s local data source and use Google Sheets instead? What am I doing wrong? If anyone thinks they can help, or wants to try, I’ll try to share my project (if I can figure out how to do that!)

you need to show the blocks, so we can see whats going on

How do I do that? I get an error when I try to upload anything using the icon above.

What error are you getting?

I would highly that you use Google Sheets for building and troubleshooting as the local datasource does not allow you to see any changes to the table after the initial manual load. Once you have your logic and CRUD sorted out and confirmed, you can then switch to the local datasource.
