Hello. I have built an API which accepts a userID parameter, and returns a set of data points associated with that user. Example:

{  
Credits: 100,  
Name: “John”,  
Challenge\_Number: 10  
}

Is there any way for me to pull this data into Adalo and present in the UI? It seems that Adalo only expects lists of data… I don’t want a user to get to a list of all of the other users’ data and my endpoint only accepts one userID.

This could be done with a custom action (rather than external collection) to return a single user record.
