Hey appsheet community,
happy to be part of the team I want my users to change their โgroup idโ in their user profile. When they have changed it, I want to write the useremail + the group id into a โgroupsโ table or update the entry when the group id has been changed again.
I played around with workflow and automation but canโt find a way to trigger this action when an entry is changed in the user profile.
Really looking forward to your answer. Thank you so much already.
Cheers, Alex
Could this help?
Unfortunately thatโs only possible for created tables and slices. Iโd like to use the user settings table in the โdataโ section if possible.
What do you mean by โuser profileโ?
Thanks for your answer. Iโd like to use the user settings table in the โdataโ section if possible.
Unfortunately, workflows can only be applied to tables that are stored in a cloud-based data source, such as a spreadsheet or database. User settings are stored on the device itself, and not subject to a workflow response. The alternative is to implement your own alternative to user settings that uses cloud-based storage, but its not a trivial thing to do.
Thank you very much for the answer Steve. I tried to come up with a solution where the new user is automatically added to a database and a view where the user can only change that entry (similar to the profile, so like a pre-filled form).
I have searched for the two questions, but couldnโt find anything, can you please help out:
Thanks. Really looking forward to your answer,
Alex
Not without some sort of user interaction. To add the user, either an action must be performed (initiated by either a button press by the user or by some other data change) or a workflow must fire (prompted by a data change). Thereโs no trivial way to do this, but I did suggest an approach here:
Yep! This might offer some ideas:
User | Count |
---|---|
42 | |
34 | |
27 | |
23 | |
16 |
