OK but where is the data for those 5 boxes you want filled? How is the app calling for it? Do other users save some kind of data to other users profiles or is it saved to their own and somehow other users have to get it from their account? ---

@jxbclothes69gc7 Can you create a small project which shows what you need help with and post a share link to it? And let us know as specifically as possible what you need help with. -Mark ---
