go to another view after executing action on rows selected

I have these actions:

  • add_row_to_bin, which adds a new row to table “bin”
  • go_to_bin_view, which goes to another view within this app, “table view of bin”
  • add_then_view, which executes both actions

I can select multiple rows in a table view “items” and execute the action "add_row_to_bin" without a problem. But the “add_then_view” action is not available in the table view, which makes sense since going to another view does not make sense when applied to multiple rows.

How can I select multiple rows in table “items”, add new rows to table “bin”, and then go to another view? Is this where I could use an automation? But what event should trigger the automation? The last row entry? How can I figure that?

Check out action looping, if you’re wanting to accomplish this client side (meaning the user has the information immediately available so they can keep moving forward).

Check out automation, specifically how to use the API to add records, if having the information immediately available is not important.

Hope it helps, Happy Apping!
