Add reference of multiple users to another record (1-*)

#1

I have been trying out Softr to see if I can use this for an MVP. One specific situation i figured would be easy but i cannot figure this out:

I have a list of apps and I want users to be able to favorite them . Now, this means that one App can have many users being linked to it.

I found a way to update but it always overwrites because it seems to use a set reference to UserID instead of adding a new link to the record.

Is there a way this can be done in Softr that I am missing?

Hi @JMK1984, you can achieve the described use case by using our form block. It is shown in detail how to configure it in our Event Planning template when a logged-in user can tap the button “Attend Session” and add the session to his/her favourite/attending event list.

@Marine.Hovhannisyan thank you, that indeed did the trick! Too bad i cannot trigger this from a list-detail view. Guess its just learning how to work with nocode after doing lowcode/high code forever :slight_smile:

You are always welcome @JMK1984 and welcome to the no-code community :heart:

Yep, the only way will be to add the form block to the same page where your list details block is located. This way you will be able to collect information from the list details block also using the hidden field feature in the form block.
