Hi Ronamir,

It looks like you have the “Total_EE” data on a smart container, and you are trying to access it from a text box that doesn’t have the same field. If you type your formula into the text field on the smart container, it should work.

If you need the information on the text box, you can try {{=CHILDREN(PAGE).”total_ee”}}. This will only work if the smart container is the only object on the page with the data field “Total_EE”. If there are more, it will return an array of all those values.

Let me know if that works or if I can help more.
