Hi,

is it possible to get values shown in a mobile collection layout by using the relation? It is possible in Data Model but I can´t get it running while doing the layouts. It is just not shown in the field selection for meta or description. I could only select columns from the table.

THX for help. KR Robert

Assuming that your relation is a single relation, you can use one or more lookup columns to fetch the values you need via the relation.
