Hi everyone, I am having the user select a serial number via a choice component and then I would like to update the values of that specific row with the serial number when I click a button. How can I do this. I know this is possible with a list component but I would rather do this via a form style setup ---

Choice component → value Relation column → value relates to a value in the row you want to update Button → Set column value action → Source Data = Relation Column → Update column values ---

It only allows me to set the source as “this item” or “user profile row” ---

Did you create the single relation column in the same table as the choice component input? ---

Yes. it sets a temp input from the choice component in the user profile row, but it doesnt let me select that specific cell column. Only the row as a whole. The page is setup with one choice component and a button below it. The button triggers the custom action ---

Can you do a screencast using loom? ---
