I am building a client dashboard and want to use information from my users table to change what they can see from clicking a single button. I am able to create these conditions for all my buttons but its the same condition for all of them. I want them to hold different conditions. How should I approach this?

Thank you!

I’m a bit confused. If you have different buttons, you should be able to set different visibility conditions to them. Can you show me how you’re setting it up?

I think I confused the buttons with the collection. I don’t want to change visibility, rather what the page opens up to based on certain conditions that are pre-set in my database. For example, if a user has a specific service, I want to access the detail page. If not, I want it to link out to the external webpage. I tried creating actions but it is only allowing for me to do this for all parts of the collection rather than separate conditions for each part.

Have you tried a custom action?

Please try the solution Jeff sent above. The poster of the dictionary method hasn’t replied, and I’m not sure what that even means.
