Hi Jean-Michel, we are working on adding a new feature that will make this easier, but in the meantime, if you want to access a value from your data, you need to connect the value to a text layer, then enable expressions for the slider and connect the slider to the sourceText value of the text layer, and wrap it in parseInt() to convert the string to an integer that the slider control effect can read. It would look like:

parseInt(comp("your comp name").layer("your text layer name").text.sourceText)

yes !..thank you ;-))
