Hi everyone,
I'm currently working on an app with custom lists, and I'm working on implementing a "Copy List and all items" button.
The goal is for users to click the button and duplicate an entire list, along with all its items, into a new list. The lists are stored in the "MAIN" table (columns: LIST ID, LIST NAME), and the items are in the "CONTENT" table (columns: LIST ID, ITEM NAME, ITEM DESCRIPTION).
I tried a grouped action, but it appears limited to actions within the same table. Any suggestions on how to achieve this, considering the need to create a new list in "MAIN" and copy items to "CONTENT"?
Thanks for your insights!
Hey man,
it's trivial.
1. Create a new Temporary ID for the new MAIN Table Record via UNIQUEID() on the Source Record
2. Create the Target Record in MAIN Table (LIST ID = Temp ID)
3. Create Target Items in Content Table (LIST ID = Temp ID) You can use this apporach: https://www.googlecloudcommunity.com/gc/Tips-Tricks/FAQ-Add-a-number-of-rows/td-p/308380
4. Link to Target Record via LINKTOROW([Temp ID], "MAIN_Detail")
Cheers
