Accessing your Record ID
Each record in Adalo has a unique Record ID. Makers can now get access to a Record ID for use in custom actions, visibility rules, conditional actions, list filtering, or anywhere else in your app!
Skill Level: Expert
Before You Begin
You will need an Adalo Starter Plan or higher to use this feature.
Ensure you have an understanding of Actions, Databases, and Magic Text
Ensure you have read about the basics of APIs (see our primer on them here)
Walkthrough
A Unique Record ID is automatically set for each new Record in your Adalo Collections.
Record IDs are values that can't be changed, meaning you can rely on consistent data as opposed to using something such as an Email Address which can be updated by the User.
The Record ID can be found via Magic Text in Filtering, Conditional Actions, Visibility Rules, and Conditional Actions.
