Hi @frysteen

The data is saved to the database using a numeric counter as the $key.

So you could achieve this on the front end by introducing a counter like so:

<?php 

$i = -1;

while( have_rows() ) {
	
	the_row();
	
	$i++;
	
	if( get_row_layout() == 'paragraph' ):
	 	
	 	echo "key={$i}";
	    the_sub_field('text');
	 
	elseif( get_row_layout() == 'download' ): 
	 
	    echo "key={$i}";
	    $file = get_sub_field('file');
	 
	endif;
	
}
 ?>

I hope that helps.

Thanks
