recalculate the entire database

[Gustavo_Eduardo]

Hello everyone! Does anyone know if it's possible and, if so, how to recalculate the entire database? I would need to create a behavior action that allows me to update all the rows of a database table but from the menu and not from the table itself for example.

Since updating a row triggers recalculation of all columns in the row that have an app formula, you can create an action that updates the row. For example, make a column that is solely for this purpose. Your action might simply toggle the column's value between true and false --e.g., NOT([Column])--, or it might increment the column's value--e.g., [Column] + 1. See more details in  Quick Update System - How to update records in you... - Google Cloud Community .

Hi @dbaum , I actually need to apply this action but not at the row level but at the table level, and not from within the table itself but perhaps from a menu space. I don't know if this will be possible.

Execute an action on a set of rows

Sorry--you did say "menu" in your original post and I skipped over that detail. You can't add an action to the views menu. You'd need to create a way to invoke the action from a user-selected button or data change event, or invoke it via a scheduled automation.

If you don't necessarily need it within the app's UI, you could create the action and then trigger it from the app editor via the automation test function.
