LINKTOFORM Settings Deep Link or Update a User Setting via Automation

[DarenJanes]

I'm attempting to update a User Setting via the Settings Form with a deep link. Not having any luck. Ideally, I don't even want to call the Settings Form, but would prefer to update a Setting via a Automation Bot, but that doesn't seem to be an option either. 

Thanks All

Note that USERSETTINGS are meant to be values set by the user on THAT device.  They do not carry from device to device.

It might be that you need to create your own usersettings table?

I've contemplated that, but I actually want the device based setting per user.

[Eduardo_Jr_Vill]

you can create your own device user setting table using Context("device") as key for that table.

Then create a slice for that specific device by using this formula LIST(Context("Device")). 

There you have it! ☺️ Hope this helps

Please consider this when using it from a browser:

Oh yes thank you for pointing that out. With a few caveat of course.

It is not possible to update any user setting using an action or Automation.

Hmm, it would seem that this would be very useful.  For example, when entering data I would like a field to default to the last value saved by this user.  Or is there a better solution?
