The green “item” block in the “List\_Viewer2 Item Click” block has the value of the item name (its text). The green “index” block has the value of the item’s _position_ in the list. For the row id in your “update value” block, you need to use the index value, not the item value. ---

@tatiang Yes you are correct but it will not update anyway. Airtable expects a row id of 32 character alphanumeric format not the item position in a list viewer. ---

@tatiang if i am using “index” it will save but it went to wrong row. for example i click officer1 and click on 1239 then press button update it will save first row at airtable. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/b/4/b46b5f6f66f5bced80136de3b312cdc95e333535.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/2/0/20667f810d434714b86cf01c278665ba293e25fd.png) ---

@muneer any solution for that issue in your opinion? ---

Of course there is a way. GetAllRows first and then loop through the rows to match your criteria. When found update that specific row. ---

Airtable is also fussy about format, so you may also need to check that the column you’re changing a value in matches the expected format. I’ve had it decide that a column was a drop down format with only a few values allowed, then fail without a clear error when I sent a different value. ---
