Hello, I’m working on my first app in Thunkable. So I have a multilingual app about animals. Images and Descriptions are stored in Airtable (or maybe I’ll change it to Google sheets). I’ve saved data for all 3 different languages in one table (img3), so I need to change the column name according to the selected language.  
I will try to explain better by showing imgs below:

1. This is the Design part where I can choose only one column (…EN/RU/KG)  

2. This is the way how I see logic should work but it doesn’t  

3. This is how the data table looks in AirDB  

Any tips appreciated.

If you get the Row Object from the data source instead of Get Value, you can then get individual properties/columns from that object.

Or you could use the Airtable API _filterByFormula_ method which is very powerful.

I couldn’t figure out how to use Row Object in my case so found other, it’s working but soo slow.
