Beginner's confusion with basic mapping

:frowning: frowning: frowning: ello,
I’ve started using make.com just the other day and I am an absolute beginner. Even though I have tried my best to search youtube videos and text, I still cannot get through what I’d call “step one” and am feeling very silly.
So I have a Monday.com account where each item in the “clients” board is a client (a bride looking for make-up services- info comes from a form each bride fills in). As a way of figuring out how to use make, I’d like to try and get Make to give me the name of the brides who have already booked their make-up artist and that are getting married at Penha Longa (That’s the name of a wedding venue).
In my practice scenario, I created a module that will search for items in a board by column values, so it would retreive the items who’s “MUA status” = “MUA booked!”. Then I used a Tools “Set Variable” (named it PL_weddings) module to retreive from all of the column values (this is the only “array” I could find, everything else is not considered an array…where can i fully understand this concept?) The names of the brides who’s Beauty Venue corresponds to Penha Longa.
In the results, under PL_weddings I was expecting to see names of brides, and instead I have “Empty”.




  Please bear in mind I am an absolute beginner but I cannot understand where to find anyone with minimal experience in this, I do not even know the name of the language used for mapping. Does anyone have the patience to explain this? :(

How about you start with my handy video series to learn all about data manipulation in Make? That would be a good start.
