I am testing the new components and I am very interested in the star rating.

I can’t get it to work properly.

For example, if I want to allow users to rate let’s say a video, I create a collection of videos and within a numerical property that would be the user’s evaluation.

But it doesn’t allow me to connect the component to this collection to save the score that a user assigns to the video.

The only thing I can do is create a numerical property within the users collection and there it is able to save the valuation.

But this does not work for what I want is to rate each video.

Someone got it to work?

Same results here, works fine on a Worker collection Direct Number property.  
…wont work for a relationship in User collection to another collection… as far as I could set it.

Hmm that appears to be the case for me too. I will check in with the team later on how this functionality can be adapted to meet this use case.

The same goes for other components like the progress bar, these components make almost no sense 🤷🏾‍♂️

I made a mistake on my previous post. The same mistake that everyone here I think is making too.

Please remember that the only data available on the Home screen of an app is logged in user. These components need to be on a different screen in order to be able to change a collection. Please see image below which demonstrates that this star rating component is changing the rating of a video collection list.

Interesting, I think it’s the mistake I was making, I’m going to try it but you’re right: D

Thank you
