Repeated form submissions

AppSheet AppSheet Q&A
1

I have a simple form (Action form) where there are only 3 fields:

  • Action ID - hidden and autogenerated
  • Seat ID - pre-populated
  • Action - 3 options in button format

The form is set to Auto Save, and Finish View is Action_Form

When I select an Action, it correctly adds a new row into the table. However the second time I go to select an action, I then have to click Save. This then takes me out of the form.

Any ideas what is happening? I’m happy to share my AppSheet if anyone could help take a look? Very new to all this…

Instead of setting the finish view to itself, try using the auto-reopen option.

I am not sure why when you set the Finish View to itself, that the Auto Save isn’t working. Possibly a bug?

However, instead of setting the “Finish View”, I think you would instead want use the “Auto re-open”. Remove the Finish View and turn on Auto re-open and I think all will work as it should.

Thank you! That works much better but after anywhere between 5 and 9 posts it goes out of the form. I’ll.do some more testing to see if I can work out why!
