Enabling barcode scanning in Mobile Agent Mobile App Builder

Hey there all. I have been setting up the mobile agent app for our helpdesk to be able to scan barcodes and have that bring up the record so that they can perform actions on it. I have set up my own screen like this 

find_real_file.png

I added the barcode as a ui parameter and then added the data parameter mapping.

I then set up my list stream and added the data item to it. I configured the data item like this 

find_real_file.png

When I scan it gets the barcode but when I press submit it doesn't display anything. If I remove the condition or manually put a serial number in the condition it will display the appropriate records. 

 

I feel like I am just missing one piece and something just isn't connected somewhere. Any help is appreciated.

Hey Paul thanks for the reply. I had to go into studio and pull it up there as the mobile app builder didnt have the option for me to link it. After pulling the applet up in studio one of the mappings was not done even though it was configured in mobile app builder. After configuring it in studio it works like a charm. Here is what it looks like now

Its weird that it has two data parameters. And in studio

Oh Good! I thoughts so. sometimes, we need to give in both in the studio and in UI builder!
