I followed those steps exactly but it didn't work. I noticed that you have some sort of JS that you run. Do I need that?

Also, no erros in the console.

Does anyone have any advise?

Hi -

You need to have only one parameter.
Appery.io DataBase doesn't know about your SortA, B , or anything else, it works with its own implementation "sort".
So, you need to change value for parameter sort every time you changing sort order in your select menu.

How exactly do I do that?

Hello Ellen,

First you should think this logic, then sort data http://devcenter.appery.io/documentat...

I have this sort parameter so if I have the column names in the properties of the select menu, then map it to the sort column, it should work, right? Would I do it in the before send or the success??

Hi Ellen,

show us datasource "before send" mapping and screen shot of actual service request(where we can see request parameters and headers).

Bruce, Great explanation

Thanks & regards.

This is the mapping:

This is how the variable is set:

These are the properties:

Then this is the service request:

Hi Ellen,

You use wrong parameter name: "Sort" instead of "sort".

See more info in documentation: http://devcenter.appery.io/documentat...

I tried that and now it thinks about what it wants to do but it still doesn't sort based on what is selected.
