Victor Kuzmichev I built a button that gives the ID so you can send it to the backend. It needs to be given a list and the list needs to be filtered, so it is not the greatest solution, but it works for now until this is done.

Also, a sports enthusiast posted the same thing on the forum today. So, I whipped up a quick component that will let you get the record id of an item when the button is clicked on. Installed it from [adalo.pragmaflowservers.com/install-component](http://adalo.pragmaflowservers.com/install-component) and use it for your custom actions today and save a whole bunch of work.
