Hi all. We have a custom-app in which its returned some data. We would want to bind this flow, so, when user selects something at the custom-app, the referred record(s) are picked at the table. We tried a lot of ways with no success. Custom-app data comes from an i-frame. We are able to have the records array but we still are not able to pick records as it is shown in the screenshot. Thanks in advance

Custom apps can “import” the list of records selected in a table’s grid view, but not the other way around as you’re suggesting.

Which records are selected in the Airtable user interface is read only data. A possible alternative is to have a checkbox field and have your app set the checkbox field. You could then have a filtered view that only shows records where the checkbox is set. A custom app is capable of changing the display to a specific view.
