Hello guys,

I’m first time using Thunkable and I’m stuck with Blocks, been struggling for hours and ChatGPT doesn’t help me I am totally lost. Please help me

ChatGPT is saying my way of doing is wrong and I need to stack vertically instead of horizontally, but I just don’t see how this can be done otherwise than what I did (as in screenshot). Can anyone tell me how to vertically stack ’ get property of ', not horizontally?

Also ChatGPT claims there should be ’ get #1 of list ’ block in list section, but I don’t see any such. The closest I see is ’ in list get #1 ’ block. If anyone can show me if ’ get #1 of list ’ really exists in Thunkable blocks, I’d really appreciate.

Thanks!

ChatGPT is not really a good resource for coding in Thunkable. It does well with algorithms but it can’t accurately describe the blocks. Part of that is that the block names and functions have changed over the years and it’s pulling data from the entire Internet which means a lot of it is outdated.

The best information to provide – in addition to your screenshot – is the JSON response you’re getting (the green `response` block). If you can post that as **text** and format it using the \</\> button in the toolbar right above the post, I can help you figure out what’s wrong with your blocks.

The easiest way to get that text is to assign the green `response` block to a text input’s text and then preview the project and copy the response from the text input.

Add these blocks to the “then do” section of your Web API block, above the `in list get #1` block:

Set text input’s text to `response`

Then do this:

1. Preview the project
2. Click in the text input and select all.
3. Copy
4. Create a new post here and paste the text.
5. Select the text and then click the \</\> button in the toolbar:

Hi tatiang, thanks for trying to help, but still I don’t get how to set text input’s text to response. I have no idea what you mean, I’m so sorry!

Is it possible if you (or someone else, if you’re busy) can help me via zoom or something like that for 5-10 min? I think that way is easier to understand..

Thanks!
