Hello! I have been using your application for several years now, but this is the first time I have encountered such a problem.  
I use collections and a database in them, as a result of which I have a lot of (cards) with my items, and in these cards I want to indicate a separate database for each, but I can’t do it because if I indicate one on 1 card database, it is applied automatically to everyone.

I looked for a solution for a very long time both in the program itself and on your website, but I never found it. I hope for your help.

I’m not sure I understand this part. Do you mean you want a collection in the new Glide Apps to take items from different tables?

I think they are looking for independent screen config…

@NorkaTop what you need to do is modify the default Item click action on the Collection. Make it a custom action, with a separate conditional branch for each item in the collection. And each branch will use the same action: Show new screen → this item.

So you should have something like:

- If Item is X, then Show new screen → This item
- Else if Item is Y, then Show new screen → This item
- Else if Item is Z, then Show new screen → This item
- etc…

The above will give you a separate, independent details screen for each collection item.
