Hey gliders, I use Glide Pro tables, and now need **to increment the column** (e.g. Amount) by Glide API using Integromat\Make. But there are just AddRow, SetColumn and DeleteRow options in Glide API. So i need to use SetColumn in API. But how can i add (increment) my new Amount to the Amount already existed in the Column “Amount”? Thank you ---

You probably need to find a way to store the current value in a Make Data Store value, then you can calculate the new value within the scenario and set it via the API. ---

Hi Darren, Thank you so much! I’ve thinked so, but when i am inside Make i do not know the value in exact row, which i need - because there is no SearchRow in Glide API(( ---

> [@ALEKSEI\_BARANOV](#): > > because there is no SearchRow in Glide API Yeah, I understand that. Which is why I suggested that you may need to find a way to store the value in Make. I know nothing about your app or your scenario, so I can’t say exactly how you would do that. But maybe you can use a webhook action somewhere in your flow that sends the current value to Make. Make could then store it and re-use it later. I’ve used a similar approach in the past. But again, I don’t really know if this could work in your case. ---

Aha, so if it is possible to store value in Make, between two of my requests - that could be a solution. Thank you so much for your explanation. 🙏 ---

Yes, I have faced this problem before. My approach is basically the same: store the value in a data store, then if I need any changes, do a search on the data store, retrieve the value and add 1 to it, then write it back to Glide.
