Workflow result resent back to update mobile app field

Hi,
not new to retool, but workflow is still something I am not so much using. The big portrait is that I created a retool mobile app to send to a webhook so it checks another software ID. Then this software ID is sent back to a retool webhook workflow that triggers a notification of succes or fail on the app. All this works.

The next step I am trying to do is I would like to update a field in the mobile app with the result, so instead of the need to reload the field it could simply update it. Currently after sending the request, I need to look at the screen nonstop so I don't miss the success or fail result.

Any idea on how to do this ? I found I should use the "response block" but I can't get to understand what to input where.

Hi @MRConcept! Welcome back to the community. :slightly_smiling_face:

This should be fairly straightforward to accomplish, though the details depend a bit on the exact nature of your workflow logic. I've put together a really basic example below:

The next step is to trigger this workflow from within your app:

By chaining on an Event handler, we're able to take the response and update the value of the text field.

I hope this explanation helps! Let me know if you have any additional questions. :+1:
