Hello valuable users of Thunkable, I’m really been more than 2 months to a problem that I really need to be fixed for my uni project. I want to read from a Mysql database and PHP and put the read value in a Label for example. I tried the Puravid Apps method but it viewed all the readings from the database I just want to select a specific row from the database. Please help me guys and gals as it would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance. ---

That tutorial is only really relevant to Classic users. Can you send me a screenshot of the headers you are using: ![45](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/9/8/9875bf24030e74dde23eaddb12df7744829c70d6.png) And another screenshot of the the blocks you are using too. Thanks! ---

Hello, @domhnallohanlon thanks for keeping up. Unfortunately, the issue has not been solved yet. You mentioned that Puravidapps is irrelevant in Thunkable X (lacking components?). Also, I don’t understand what do you mean by the Headers. I still don’t know what blocks to create for this task. ---

I want to write back as I found the solution by converting PHP to JSON then I read it from the app and placed it in a label. ---
