I’m trying to figure out a way to build a comma separated list of values using an action that allows the user to click a button to add or subtract a value from the list. Once I have that list, I would use a relation to display the items on their list. From a user interface standpoint, they would s…

If you find Trebuchet intimidating, then Thinh’s suggestion (Data Structures) may be worth looking into. It essentially does the same thing as Trebuchet, without all the mental gymnastics.

Sounds like a perfect use case for “Data Structure” action, though I have never used it.
