Newbie - Need help

I am creating my first app with glide and it a bit of a wall that I am sure you guys can help.

I am trying to enter details to a single row on a single table using 2 forms across 3 screens.

On screen 1 I want customers to fill out a form capturing details for columns A,B,C, navigate to screen 2 (thank you screen), then navigate to screen 3 which has another form where I need the customer to fill out details to populate columns D,E &F> . All of this is in one single table. What I want is a single row in that table that has recorded the details for columns A,B,C,D,E & F at the end of the day.

Seems like an easy ask but after numerous attempts using set column values I just cant make it work. I always end up with 2 rows - one from form 1 and another from form 2.

I would really appreciate some help.

Keep in mind that a native form or form container will always ADD a row whenever the form is submitted. That’s the nature of a form…to add a row. I assume you are also trying to set an On Submit action on the form. On Submit actions are actions that will run AFTER the form is submitted in addition to the row being added on submission.

If you are looking to edit an existing row, then you your options are to use the Edit Screen which only allows one screen design per table, or just use a detail screen. You can also use the Show New Screen action which is like Show Detail screen, but allows for additional screen designs against the same table.

Another option would be to use the same screen, but conditionally hide or show different components or containers depending on which section of the form you are working on.
