We are trying to pass a parameter with the App Builder to view a particular row in the database. Right now, when we pass the Row ID parameter, it works fine to find the record. However, instead of a Row ID, we wanted to pass another parameter in the URL that is in the database table (we have a uniqu…

Good morning @ddsgad , However, the app builder will not look up the field in the database when you pass a different parameter, other than the Row ID. Is this a current limitation? In a “single row” data source, yes this is correct. You can either: Add a page parameter which resolves to the row…

Thank you! Passing parameters via the filters works great. You might want to add that to your docs that you can leave the Row Id empty and just pass a param in the filter. It’s not clear.

That’s great to hear @ddsgad ! You might want to add that to your docs that you can leave the Row Id empty and just pass a param in the filter. It’s not clear. My apologies, we can work on that. You can find the “missing row ID” mention on this page : When you select the Get single row service t…

It does not work @picklepete . I have performed the solution you suggested: Data Source with filter that selects the column and the content of the parameter, in this case the UUID (Parameter > :uuid). Empty Row ID field (both in Data Source and with Update Row). However, every time new data is ad…

[image] Prefill login form Then you create a page that has as text page parameter for the UUID and you add a data source that fetch the record with this UUID @jrmi how did you get it to work?

Hey @khalil.io , Could you share a screenshot of the configuration of the page and the configuration of the filtered data source? It would help us to figure out what’s wrong. Thanks

Of course it is. I can’t upload more than one attachment, but I put them all together in one image. I will pass 6 captures: A) Page 1 (Home): Data Source Create Row On submit > Set parameters (:uuid) to navigate to Page 2 B) Page 2: Database Values 2. Data Source On submit > Empty Row ID Do yo…

Great thanks. I see in the last screen (6) that you haven’t selected a row ID, what happens if you select the id of the row you get from the data source?

Correct, if in screen 6 I select the Row ID with :id, it works. But it is not what I need, because doing so allows anyone to edit another row just by changing the link. For example, with a link :id/:uuid = 124/4b8c48e3-9cec-4a95-b746-0a7efb76582a, if it is changed to 123/4b8c48e3-9cec-4a95-b746-0a7e…

You are a master @jrmi ! Thanks for the help, it’s the solution. Every day more and more I understand all the logic of Baserow. Attached is a screenshot of the On submit (Update) > Row ID > Data Source > Data Base > id configuration: [Captura desde 2025-06-05 09-51-44]
