Those blocks only exist in the Snap to Place interface of Thunkable. Since you’re using the newer Drag and Drop interface, you’ll need to use cloud variables instead.

The information and videos in the documentation will walk you through how to do that: [https://docs.thunkable.com/blocks/blocks/variables-overview/connect-a-firebase-realtime-database](https://docs.thunkable.com/blocks/blocks/variables-overview/connect-a-firebase-realtime-database)
