Hello, how can i filter the result from a Get Call ? I don’t understand why i see all the response and not only the one with “NumeroDiGara” field parameter i set. I have this code. Where is my mistake ? ![Schermata 2021-03-28 alle 00.10.06](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/8/2/8255ba2e8ea77e5504084b1fc93596c24a2c8aff.png) Thanks ---

Hey @aiasp 👋 any particular reason you’re using the Airtable API and not using our Airtable integration? Going back to your original question, @tatiang has a great tutorial on working with APIs here: > [@API JSON Tutorial (Video)](https://community.thunkable.com/t/api-json-tutorial-video/1140575): > > Using APIs in Thunkable and understanding how to parse JSON to get certain data from the API response is both a popular and a difficult aspect of using Thunkable. It’s not so much difficult because of Thunkable but because every API url format is different, every API documentation is different, every JSON response is different, etc. In this video, I spend a lot of time talking you through some best practices. It’s not a quick tutorial because if you rush through setting up an API in Thunkable, … ---

I agree that I would use the built-in Airtable data blocks rather than the API unless you have a specific reason not to. ---

hi ! because i need only a single value from the data i parse, and filtering or query with airtable integrations is not possible , so that’s why i’m trying to build a solution using api ---

In this case you need to use a feature in Airtable API called **Filter by Formula**. The blocks you did will not work. ---
