Hi,
I set a page has a Dynamic Page and did some stuff… it created a new column with the field name of “link-Jogos-title” wich I want to use in code, but I can’t use “-” in code and I can’t change the field name, how do I write that field in code?

Hi,
Whenever you create a column to your DB collection, you set the field name and the key field is created automatically, as you can see here:

If you wish to set / get the attribute of this field, you need to use the field key , and not the field name .
For example, if you create a query and wish to console log the column value of the first record with the key field " fieldKey ", you should do the following:

wixData.query("collectionName")
	.find()
	.then((results) => {
		let firstItem = results.items[0];
		console.log(firstItem.fieldKey);
	})
	.catch((err) => {
		let errorMsg = err;
	});

In order to check the field key of an existing column, you should click on the header of the DB table → manage properties.

Good luck!
Tal.

Hey,
Can you send us the editor URL / site URL and specify the name of the collection so that we can have a look?

Thanks,

I couldn’t find any field named “link-Jogos-title” of this collection. I’m not sure that I fully understand what you were referring. Please send us a screenshot of the field key you were referring.

Thanks,
Tal.
