I want to display child records of a particular object whose parentid are in this text field.How can

You’ll have to use a snippet or maybe “hack” the xml.

Hi pat, How to use snippet and where can we write this snippet?

I would use Welcome to Skuid Docs — Skuid v15.1.6 Documentation and then add the snippet to the page.

Here’s a potential solution expanding on Pat’s response:

• Parse that text field and populate a ui-only model with the list of ids from that field
• Point your “Field from another model” model condition to that ui-only model to get the child records. Don’t forget to use “in”, not “equals to”, since you want to return the match for all records in the ui-model

Here’s XML showing how to use a snippet to convert a text field to records in an ui-only model:
