# Unique ID Chip

## Unique ID Chip

### Unique ID Chip

Display Notion **Unique ID** values (for example `RST1`) as a compact monospace **Unique ID Chip** on Details instead of plain body text.

{% hint style="info" %}
**What changed**\
A new view component, **Unique ID Chip**, is preferred for Notion `unique_id` properties. It renders the ID as a clear chip so ticket/restaurant/request identifiers are easy to scan and copy mentally.
{% endhint %}

1. Open the Details screen.
2. **Add component** → **Unique ID Chip**.
3. Bind it to the Unique ID property (for example **Ticket ID**).
4. Set a label if you want “Ticket ID” above the chip.

#### Step 2 — Preview and publish

1. Select a record and confirm the chip shows the expected ID (prefix + number).
2. Compare with the same page in Notion.
3. **Publish** and verify on the live app.

| ---------------- | ----------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- |
| Empty chip       | Page created before Unique ID was enabled | Open/edit in Notion so an ID is assigned; Reload Data |
| Wrong format     | Looking at a different property           | Bind the Unique ID field, not a text “code” field     |
| Still plain text | Old Details/Heading mapping               | Replace with Unique ID Chip component                 |
