copy several selected rows of one table to another table (bulk copy)

hi,

i want to copy several selected rows of one table to another table (bulk copy)

i tried with action: APP: copy this row and edit copy - works fine!

but this only copys 1 row at a time - i want to copy several rows in one step ... (the rows i have "bulk-selcted ...)

How can i achieve this?

many thanks in advance!

Is it correct that action with name: "Data: execute an action on a set of rows" is the action ("Bulk action") i need for my problem?


No.  It's much simpler than you are thinking.

You only need to create the action that performs the copy = "Data: add a new row to another table using values from this row".  Even though it implies to add a row to "another" table, it can be used to copy rows into the same table as well.  see image below

Once the action above is created, you're done!  To use it you would select your rows in the "Bulk Action" feature, like you have been, then tap the  and AppSheet will send each row to the action one-by-one.
