Another simple example out of the appsheet:
I play the game Clash of clans. When an upgrade finishes, it sends me a notification to let me know.
I can tell you that it is IMPOSSIBLE that you dont have this expression in the conditions.

This is a huge handicap after setting up a full application on your platform and have this feature not existent at all.
It’s not that the capability doesn’t exist. It simply exists in a different way than you expected.
And yes, I completely understand the feature. AppSheet is by no means a finished platform and a relatively young platform at that. In the past they enhanced in large part based off of community Feature Requests. It most likely is the case that the feature you desire simply was never requested or at the very least prioritized over other requests.

This will trigger unwanted emails as our phone agents has few calls scheduled per day and per weeks, sometimes per month. If an agent has only 3 calls next month, we can not send him 9 emails per day to remind him of the next months’ calls schedule…!?
You mis-understand. The bot simply checks IF an email needs to be sent. If the condition passes for the row then and only then is the email is generated. So most times, rows will simply fail and no emails are sent.

Unfortunately, that is a wrong assumption. You should understand that AppSheet is a User Action based system. Not much happens unless a User takes some kind of action in the app such as adding a row, editing a row or tapping a button. The ONLY time a process can run WITHOUT a User action is with a Scheduled Bot.
Well, I guess there is one other…Virtual Columns can change values upon a Sync. Automatic syncs can be turned on.
Understood. Thank you John for all the support you provide to us.
