Local Storage Use

[Peter_Wilson]

I have a set of dropdowns that a user selects, country, state and country working via the backendless db but that utilises a number of api calls and seems overkill for data that would not change and require the app to have data connection to function.

I am trying to move that function over to use local storage instead but I’m not sure how I populate the ‘country-selection’ dropdown from the local storage data.

Below is my codeless setup on page enter

Could you try without Convert to Text block?

If it still doesn’t work. Please set up a minimal reproducible example on a separate page.

Regards, Dima.

Thanks for the reply Dima,

I tried this

The page only has a single select dropdown with the id ‘country-selection’

Hi Peter,

I replicated your logic and it is working for me:

Here’s the logic:

Thanks Mark,

I have the same code logic but it only seems to show ‘Option 1’, ‘Option 2’ and 'Option 3 in my down down, so I must have something set wrong elsewhere.
I’ll have a dig around and get back if i find the cause.

Hi Peter,

If you share your app ID and the name of the page, I’ll be happy to look into it.

Thanks Mark,

App id is B93AC9BD-D6C7-A31F-FF26-2384D140BB00
The page is just called ‘Location’

The problem is right here:

If you remove that empty connector, it will work.

Brilliant. Thank you so much Mark. I would never have spotted that and would have been tearing my hair out.

All working now
