HELLO, I am having a problem with editing an external national event API in a simple list. When I create the list and enter the text to fill in it works but I have only one event which is displayed and repeated on several lines. can you tell me how I do to display in the list a different events in each row.
Provide more information about the API, include screenshots of the API results.
There is a space on one of your query parameters.
“facet= =type_prix”
Try removing this.
no unfortunately it doesn’t change a thing. I got an email from the team"Thanks for reaching out and I am sorry you are facing this issue. This is astually due to how that API formats their response. They are sending an Array of Nested Objects, as opposed to an Array of the objects themselves.
This is not something that can be handled with Adalo at this time."
Can you send us the response body json of the API call (when setting it up?)

Try this:
Save the collection and make the first property in the collection be the “recordid” instead by clicking and dragging it to the top of the collection’s properties.

@pford I have the same issue here but with the YouTube API… the first result is just duplicated for the relevant number of records. Taking video ID to the top of properties didn’t seem to work. Any ideas?

Good catch. I think this is because in this case the id is actually a nested JSON object instead of a top-level key. Can you try using eTag instead? That seems to be a unique value.
@pfordmedia thanks for the response. Etag also doesn’t seem to be working 
Could you DM me a link to your app real quick so I can try your External Collection? I think we had some other makers using the YouTube API who had the same issue, but I’ve never been able to test it first hand. I’m pretty sure this a limitation of how Adalo currently parses JSON for nested objects.

I have had same issue with News API - it showed only 1 item repeatedly. I think it was caused by the fact returned JSON in “id” field had not unique value - it was always “null”. I have move “publishedat” to top of the list and looks fine now.
