Automated External: Go to website

AppSheet AppSheet Q&A

Hi!

I created a button that updates a line in a table. That change triggers a bot that connects to a script that generates a URL to download a file. I then uploaded that URL back into the original table. Is there any way to open that URL from the automation?

I thought about maybe grouping the data change action and the one opening the website, but there needs to be a time delay between them both for the URL to be generated.

I tried using ‘Run action on rows’ from the bot but the behavior to open the website did not show up.

If that is not possible, is there a way to open it from app script?

Thanks!

All actions performed by a Bot are performed somewhere else besides the user’s client app instance, so nothing in a Bot can directly affect the user’s app instance.
