hi I thought I was done with json but I had to rewrite my application using only firebase and what I got quite easily with google sheets becomes trickier with firebase my problem is that I would like to get the list of tags in my “connected” bucket ---

When you say `tags` do you mean `keys`? Use this ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/a/2/a2ba03dbd542857ae6261a6b7bdfb6c34cfa02f6.png) ---

What can i say ? Thanks Switching to firebase is trickier than I thought! I created an object specific to individual at an instant t which records his entry on a given date how can I do to modify this object created on this given date? ---

Show a screenshot of your Firebase data structure. ---

I’m not sure I understand you but if you want to change any value in the database in Firebase then you need to change the value of the key. Note that when you change any thing in the key, the values under this key is effected so you need to be careful with it. ---

hi here is my Firebase data structure ![Capture d’écran 2021-11-27 à 15.36.14](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/4/1/41decc77da7b421f5be43ec6376c983150ee2c88.png) ---

Use something like this ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/6/e/6e1f1054f458905c8ec91e5eca10e9f2f2aea36f.png) ---

It should work according to the data structure you showed above. Did you check what was updated in the database? Or display the content in a label after you run the update (set) block ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/a/8/a8101293d15fa3e89815cdfad6a271c5cf868520.png) ---

indeed it works my mistake is that I should have shown more blocks and you would have had a broader view of what I’m trying to do (I deleted several parasite blocks) But I still have one problem: if the user connects several times in the same day, the application retains the last connection I would like to converse the date and user name as a key I don’t really see how to differentiate these connections ---

You need to maintain it in a list of objects and add to the every time the user connects again. ---

I was able to get this by using a “stored variable” as counter ![Capture d’écran 2021-11-28 à 08.09.55](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/f/e/fec651e678a97106a6ad54b9a826f7ada4510554.png) ![Capture d’écran 2021-11-28 à 07.51.10](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/8/5/854fcc8c756ddc1ef63633a73f23f143346d24b4.png) but it won’t work if the user uses another device in the meantime I tried to translate into blocks : > You need to maintain it in a list of objects and add to the every time the user connects again. I think it’s good now: ![Capture d’écran 2021-11-28 à 09.18.29](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/b/2/b2f2f374671cc2b7f385e4528310d353a180ede6.jpeg) I’ll keep it simple: a big thank you muneer !!! ---
