Hi everyone! I’m working on a multi-screen app in Thunkable using Airtable as my data source.

Right now, I have a working screen that shows data in a Data Viewer List, and when a row is clicked, it opens a group that displays the row’s info in text inputs.

I want to:  
Add a “Save Changes”

button that updates the selected row in Airtable.  
2. Add a “Delete” button that deletes the selected row from Airtable.

I’m already storing the selected row’s ID using a variable when a row is clicked.

Could anyone walk me through the correct blocks to use for update/edit and delete? I’m especially confused about how to make sure the updates go to the correct row.

I will add photos of the blocks for the entire screen because maybe I messed up somewhere.

Thank you in advance!

Scroll down on the left panel and look under Data Sources. You’ll find all the blocks you need. Once your button is clicked, it will delete/add/update the row using the stored row ID.

**NOTE** : Once your button is clicked, make sure when it goes back to your original screen, it is set back to `null` or `""`.
