## Learn More

* Keep in mind that whenever you make changes to fields in Xano, you must also [update the collections](https://help.adalo.com/integrations/xano-integration/pages/PBkDAREtzr7V8SQPDqu8#3.-re-syncing-a-collections-properties-with-its-xano-table) in Adalo.
* It can be very helpful to have some basic knowledge of data types and their definitions in terms of traditional coding. With Adalo and Xano, all properties/field types can be represented by [JSON data types](https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_json_datatypes.asp).

## Help

As with all integrations, Adalo is only able to provide support for the Adalo side of the integration. For assistance with your Xano account, dashboard, or implementation, please use the Xano [documentation](https://docs.xano.com/), Xano [community](https://community.xano.com/), [Xano University](https://www.youtube.com/nocodebackend), or contact [Xano Support](https://www.xano.com/contact/) directly.

If you need additional help with this article, you can always ask in our[ community forum](https://forum.adalo.com/)! Be sure to paste the link to this article in your post as well! We also have a [Xano Course on the Adalo App Academy](https://appacademy.adalo.com/course/getting-started-with-xano) that you may find helpful!<br>
