Save data as a list in Airtable and get it as a list as well

[Dario_R (Darío R Navarro)]

Hi everybody!

I’m trying to save data in airtable like a list, in this case, the order’s detail (Apple , 3 unit; Orange, 2 unit;…). I want to save it like a list in a Airtable’s column and then, when I need it, to get this data like a list, but I get “the argument is not a list”

This is the data saved in airtable. “ListaPedido” is the order’s detail.

Here I Save the customer’s order. First, in the For each, I create a local List (Lista_Pedido) with Description of item and quantity. Then, I save the order with necessary data and the list with the order’s detail.

Here I get the data: (Here, I get the fail in “Select list item”)

How I have to save or get the list??
Thank for your help!

Airtable get values problem

When you save a list in airtable it is saved actually as string in the form of (item1 item2 ...) so when you try to get value using select item list … index … you get error. One way to avoid that is save data separated by comma , using join block and when got value split at comma and then select list … index For example [image] [image]
