Hey all,

I am trying to set up the capability to have a user be able to create groups e.g.) group 1 = friends, group 2 = family, etc. by having the group creator input email addresses of each member of the group. Additionally, each user should only be able to see their own group members, not everyone on the app.

I have a “Groups” table and a “members” table. THe group table has “Group ID” and the “Group Creator”. One action allows a user to create a group. However, now I’d like to add members to the group (or have the Group Creator be able to do that). I can pull over the “Group ID” and the “Group Creator” value from the Groups table into the Members table using the “Add a new row to another table using values from this row” function…but then I don’t know how to allow for inputting of multiple emails for the different members into the “member email” column.

Any thoughts?
