I created an App for Teachers conference, one of the views has the list of sessions how can I add a Star icon so teachers can pick the session as their favourite and generate another a view for all favourite sessions and potentially email the list of favorite sessions?
Hi @Fadi_Boutanos,
I haven’t personally done this, but one suggestion would be to have a ‘starred’ table.
This would have some columns such as Session Name, Starred, User Email.
You could then create a Workflow / Action which when pressed adds a new line of data to the Starred table with a Boolean value of 1 in Starred. If pressed again it could keep the row but set it to 0 in Starred.
You could then set up a view which refers to a slice which shows all Sessions with Starred equal to 1 and then where User Email matches the logged in users email address.

Alternatively, if your app is always online and you are using a SQL based database you could look at using a similar concept and then implementing some database triggers to set the values.
Done it quite a bit pretty simply…

There would be some indication that the star had been selected. Then that list could be called up at any time from some filtered slice view in the menu. I’m assuming this would be a user sign in app. Is there a most common practice for designing this feature in Appsheet ap…
