The row id is the row # of the data source. So you have to provide an integer or a row ID (which is a long string of characters that can be found in the list of values column “ID”). You have a blank row id for the set Picture block which is why it’s not working. ---

thank you Tatiang, I have put the row ID but it is still not working, is this correct or not ? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/8/1/81619b46ac708ac61b6458ad382832e8af1651b8.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/6/3/63cfe5a20ec4200e678cef91b0d5cd3e2d187c3f.png) ---

No, that is not correct. The row id cannot be a phrase such as “Image Protein menu”. It should be a number such as 1 or 2. Or a row ID which is _only_ generated by Thunkable, not by you. You can see an example of that here: > [@\[Solved\] Can I use a variable to store a Data Viewer Row ID?](https://community.thunkable.com/t/solved-can-i-use-a-variable-to-store-a-data-viewer-row-id/581375): > > Hi, [https://x.thunkable.com/copy/17f4d8be352460ca73aca03b8aaccb94](https://x.thunkable.com/copy/17f4d8be352460ca73aca03b8aaccb94) Please take a look at the project above. In screen 2, why the “get value from” can’t fetch correct data from the table1 by using a variable in row id slot? It works when assigning row id to a specific number, e.g. “1”. Am I assigning the variable in the wrong way? Thanks Unfortunately, there is currently a bug with the `get value` blocks. They do not retrieve updated values from Google Sheets or Airtable. I’ve reported the bug here: > > > \### Platform > Drag and Drop UI - web? > Drag and Drop UI - iOS? > > \### Steps to R…eproduce > 1. Click the "Get & update values" button to get and display a value from a Google Sheet cell (e.g. 4), and update the value by one (e.g. 4+1). > 3.
