i know to encode and decode, and I want to use this to create a list which records all usernames that view my project. How do I do this?

When the green flag is clicked, encode the username to a cloud variable by joining the encoded username and the previous cloud variable. Then, decode it, add each username to a list, and enjoy.

Alternatively you could just use the cloud log, which stores the usernames of people who updated a cloud variable. It's not in the project though, but it gets the job done.

. from what I understand, it is a very long cloud variable with all the encoded usernames. then a “<not<if cloud variable contains (username) > encode (username), set (cloud variable) to (join (cloud variable) (output)” I hope that made sense. if not, I can make a project on my test account for you

you dont need to do any encoding/decoding nonsense, as the usernames of people who change cloud variables are logged in the cloud variable history

Yes, but this person wants to show those people in a list you can view in the project, not people having to go to the cloud data page. So yes, encoding and decoding is necessary.

I recommend using Cloud Lists.
