Same value keeps being added to user but there are 3 value options

Newbie here and i’ve searched through different posts with different terms but alas I think i’m being an extra donut and its probably a very simple database issue or i’ve misunderstood.

I have 3 ‘style_names’ that, upon selection, would then assigned one of said 3 to their user profile under ‘style’. They can only choose it once as i’ve set a condition that it cannot be selected if ‘style’ exists.
So the issue is this: every time a selection is made it only populates with the first ‘style’. I noticed that when choosing the ‘style_name’ to populate the value it showed this first style there… have also tried just ‘style’ and user > style

  1. are they just showing examples of the data assigned to the column and its irrelvant to my issue OR
  2. have I set up the data wrong or the action in a way that it will only ever pick from the top.

I thought I had it working ok earlier but i’ve gone a bit loopy with this now. Images for reference

Thanks in advance

How is the user making the selection, and in which context?
Can you provide a screen shot of what the user sees in the layout? (Please ensure the components list on the left hand side is visible)

Hi Darren,
Here you go - there are essentially 3 types of scales a user can use for completing an assessment/review. My idea or hope was that once that was set I could then use that value to provide the relevant scale to them once I’ve built the form itself - creating a permission view to so speak.

You seem to be using an action row action but action rows can only tie to the row you’re viewing.

I guess your screen is built on top of that “Quick Scale” row, so when you reference the “Style” column, it will always be “Quick Scale”.

For your 3 “select” actions, manually set them to your 3 corresponding values, I think.

Genius! So simple! Virtual high five - thanks so much! I was over complicating it! I literally just needed to do what I did with the view and have 3 actions with the corresponding values in. THANKS!
