Custom Component / Text widgets show Default Value instead of Current Item data in Generate Dynamic Children (Column & ListView) with Supabase #7422

  • I give permission for members of the FlutterFlow team to access and test my project for the sole purpose of investigating this issue.

Current Behavior

I'm seeing the exact same issue with a Supabase table (not inventory_view, a different table called fireworks_events). Query returns rows correctly, ListView/Column generates the correct number of children, every field is bound correctly to Get Row Field → [field name], but every single item shows the same static/default text instead of the real per-row data. Tested with both a Column ("Generate Children from Variable") and a native ListView Backend Query — identical failure both times. Would love to know if FlutterFlow has found a fix. https://community.flutterflow.io/ask-the-community/post/listview-generates-rows-but-text-widgets-do-not-display-supabase-row-values-H39Pags3qt20jml

Expected Behavior

Each list item generated via "Generate Dynamic Children" (Column or ListView) bound to a Supabase Backend Query should display that specific row's field values. Instead, every single generated item displays the same static "Default Variable Value" regardless of the actual per-row Supabase data.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Connect a Supabase table (e.g. via legacy anon JWT key).
  2. Add a Backend Query (Supabase Query, List of Rows) to a Column ("Generate Children from Variable") or a ListView ("Generate Dynamic Children").
  3. Confirm the query returns the correct number of rows (verified in Supabase Table Editor — data differs per row).
  4. Place a Text widget inside the repeating widget.
  5. Bind the Text widget's Text property to [query variable] → Get Row Field → [any string field, e.g. suburb].
  6. Set a Default Variable Value (e.g. "no-data") to test.
  7. Run Preview.
  8. Observe every generated item displays "no-data" (the Default Value) instead of each row's actual suburb value.

Additional Information

This blocks displaying live Supabase data in a production app (a fireworks/weather alert app for pet owners). Found a matching unresolved community report from another user with a different table, same exact symptom: https://community.flutterflow.io/ask-the-community/post/listview-generates-rows-but-text-widgets-do-not-display-supabase-row-values-H39Pags3qt20jml
