An Automation Activating Another Automation

I am working on an AppSheet app where a new feature is being designed but it did not work out as intended. Essentially this is a summary of its operation:

1. When a new row of data is added for a particular table, let us call it Table #1, an automation is triggered, this is the event for what I will call Automation #1.

2. This event activates Automation #1's process that activates a behavior that inserts data into another table, this will be Table #2

3. That behavior activated by Automation #1's process should trigger the event for Automation #2 which considers the mere adding into Table #2 as a trigger for its operation.

This did not happen, instead Automation #1 is activated with the filling of Table #1 which filled Table #2 but Automation #2 did not activate even though the logic dictates that it should.

Is there something I am missing?

It sounds the option that allows other Bots to trigger in your Bot #1 is not set as ON.

Where would I find this option?

You can find it from the Bot's definition. You need to scroll to the bottom of it.
