I’ve used Airtable for this because you can [filterByFormula](https://support.airtable.com/hc/en-us/articles/223247187-How-do-I-sort-filter-or-retrieve-ordered-records-in-the-API-) and get the results from the Airtable API. That doesn’t modify the data at all so many users can filter the same data in different ways without affecting each other. You can see a discussion of that here: > [@Get particular row information via particular text from airtable column](https://community.thunkable.com/t/get-particular-row-information-via-particular-text-from-airtable-column/1730653): > > Hi, I am trying to display row information of particular text in column . Ex: Column Named Skills has Garden Cleaning, Dusting, Fan Cleaning, Balcony Cleaning and so on… I want the row details of Dusting alone. If I have 2 entries for Dusting means then I should see only those 2 row details getting displayed in the listviewer. Sharing the blocks: Also sharing the airtable snapshot: Your input is highly appreciable… And here: > [@Help with possibly adding a feature in my app](https://community.thunkable.com/t/help-with-possibly-adding-a-feature-in-my-app/1858469): > > im trying to build a deck building app for a trading card game called flesh and blood and so far im using airtable to store the images of pictures and names of cards but I want to include filters so when people are searching for cards in the app , they wont have to go through a whole list. does anyone know how I can include that or which resources I should refer to. is there a database I should use instead of airtable or will airtable work to make a filter? --- _[View the full topic](https://community.thunkable.com/t/filter-data-spreadsheet-local-table/1883156)._
