How to connect an HTML element to a database?

In the database I have an “embed” field in which I put embed code to embed the video from the vShare.io server.
On the dynamic page I have an HTML element and I want to connect it to the database to display video from the embed code in the database. I do not know about coding. Please help :slight_smile:

Although Andreas did suggest it to you back in his original answer to your old forum post here.

I have seen these links. But this does not do the trick because it concerns some messages sent to the html element. And I need my HTML element to retrieve the code from the database

Once I had it thanks to Andreas. Unfortunately, I lost this code because my friend accidentally deleted this page when creating another website. And now I do not know how to do it because I do not know about coding. I have only such a code but it does not work:

let currentItem = $w("#dataset1").getCurrentItem();
$w("#iframeComponent").src = currentItem.videoUrl;
