Hi, The code below is supposed to add the element “Partying” to the empty list in the database. Debugging the pink block in a text box displayed “undefined”. What am I doing wrong here? How else would I access the key in the database and insert "Partying as last element of the list “Interests”? Thanks ![Screenshot 2021-01-05 at 11.41.56](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/8/9/8968af321ad552dadc7855cc8019de96a6992772.png) ---

rather than creating a list here (which isn’t a URL) you could just create a variable with the string “universities/mailsac/users” and pass that instead. ---
