Pull data from a spreadsheet based on text input

Questions about Thunkable
1

This may be a very simple question. I am VERY new to all of this.

I want to do the following:

  1. Have the user input a 5-digit text input
  2. The app searches a specific column in a Google Sheet for that 5-digit code
  3. The app then displays the cell text from the cell in the adjacent column

I know this is probably very simple, but I can’t figure out how to do it.

Thanks!

Hi and welcome to Thunkable!

What you’re describing is called a vlookup and there are topics that explain how to do that. You can search the forums or Google vlookup Thunkable to get started.

If you have trouble after that, make sure to include as many details, screenshots, project link, etc. as possible. See this: How to ask Great Questions v2.0
