Routing with dynamic parameters - Am i missing something obvious?

Believe it or not I have yet to experiment with routing and dynamic values in Wappler
It’s quite an brilliant addition as coding manually in your .htaccess file was and remains a pain in the backside.

BUT i am clearly missing something in the logic

I start with a typical bootstrap table with Anchor buttons

The links are intiially:

contact.php?contactid={{contactid}}

This calls contact.php

with query

So everything OK up till this point

However want the link to be in the format /contact/3/

Now I add routing

Generate and Upload the routes giving:

and change the link in app connect

This adds

‘contact/{{contactid}}/’

I take out the unwanted single quotes (still a bug report in on that one I believe)

contact/{{contactid}}/

The link works correctly

However the quuery does not return any data

I am sure I am missing something simple, anyone spot what it is?
