I am trying to make a chat app between 2 person using the data viewer list to show the chat messages. How can I sync Firebase to the data viewer list block? This is because the data viewer list requires a database, and all 4 of the data base are not able to store the information in real-time, hence I am using Firebase’s real-time database to store the messages… If anyone can provide some advice, I would be very grateful! ---

Hello @zhen A solution will be to get the data using the cloud variable component and then save them into a Local Table that will be connected with the Data Viewer List. ---
