I might have to start charging an hourly fee for this. Just copy [https://concepts2.glideapp.io/](https://concepts2.glideapp.io/). It’s all set up in there. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/9/99ee70f1eb8840939a70dd2d7d8f295454590f46.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/6/69c6569b8ac5ff6bcc95428c0364d4c5301cac5f.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/f/fd1518ea52b59135422efa7c36152b3453058784.png) ---

I set the app so it can be copied. The copy option seems to turn itself off sometimes. ---

I have been in the form of Learning all Relation videos, and IF-THEN-ELSE video, and using the formula = {“SheetName”! A: B} to make automatically set or copied to fill in the User , Email, and Email 1 . I have also learned how to “Home and Inline page” that automatically appears, but all of that hasn’t worked. I think I can understand better when I see the correction with screenshoot picture tutorial. I can’t copy your app, why? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/9/91e60ca842518845639119f0620aa8c98a5e7225.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/b/b73a9a8054b5ed67e0e08284dce22a7175749af4.png) So, How to automatically input sheet chat like belo picture ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/0/03c58a91b2803c9f5fcbd80a2ade7b6c8587d3ea.png) I can make chat with comment but anyone else it can see itt, how to filter? ---

You can Create a column in your sheet called MessageID (or whatever you’d like). When a user submits a new form, have a special Unique Value column write to this column. Then, your comments component can reference this column. Make sense? ---

hey I’m struggling to figure out few things! first, to upload a video on the App I am making I put the link in the google sheet first and then it shows up as a video in the app. the problem is in the app, how can a new user upload a short video if he wants to? second I realized the telephone and email address don’t allow people to directly send messages by clicking on them. is there a way to do it or they will just appear as informations for the public? ---

It’s all about using the right components. Make sure you’re using email components for an email value. Likewise for phone number. Don’t simply use basic/rich text. For the video uploads, add a file upload component. ---

Be aware the videos, even short ones are very large and will almost always exceed the 10meg file limit of Glide. For all practical purposes uploading videos via a file upload component is very limited because of the size limitations. ---

that’s what I did but the file picker doesn’t work(well it doesn’t upload). I realized when I add a link on the google sheet, I then go back to the app, the video plays only when it’s the video component in the items instead of the file picker. when I switch to file picker, the video stops working. Also I have question about your video sample about the private messaging. can 2 users communicate privately or the private conversation is only with the user and the admin? ---

I get that but I have a feeling when it is through the link on the google sheet instead of an upload, it will play the video without taking any space or exceeding any file limit. ---

The way I built it, it’s with the admin, but I’m working on a concept where it’s with any user…stay tuned. ---
