I want to use an inline list and choose a relation column previously made in the data tab of a specific sheet…but Glide message says there is no relation for that sheet or shows other different relations. Any idea why? Any limits in columns per sheet? Thanks ---

Was it a single or multiple relation? Single might not show up for inline list. Your relation would need to be set to multiple. ---

I think an inline list component and a list relation component need ‘Multiple’ to be selected to work. A Relation component needs ‘Multiple’ to not be selected for it to work. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/2/2b41b3f997a4b595d4dbb92ca047b6603541c200.png) For a relation column, I tend to use Multiple in most cases since I don’t use the Relation component very often. I see it making more of a difference when using a Relation column in combination with a Lookup column. If you intend to use a Lookup with a Basic text component, then you cannot select Multiple on the Relation column. If you need an array of multiple values for an image carousal or per user data with multiple emails, then multiple will need to be selected for the relation column. ---

what do you mean you use a relation column to create a multiple relation or are you talking of the component if it is the component it should be visible in a details screen ---

that is because your relation is meant to be single for a relation component for the multiple relation you use an inline list ---
