Check box triggers a time stamp

[Joemac]

I'm looking when a check box field is clicked it will timestamp a different field within the same table.  Any easy ideas?

Hello @Joemac,

As I got your inquiry you want to timestamp the record only when a specific field with Yes/No data type is checked.

It is possible with Triggered Actions.

1) If you need to set Timestamp when the record is inserted, then the Trigger design can be like this.

The sample table:

 

 

2)  If you need to set Timestamp when the record is updated, then the Trigger design can be like this.

 

Feel free to update this thread in the case you have further questions.

@CoopperBackpack - can I ask another easy question?  I have a formula field in my table that I want to use some static text combined with data from another field.  Here is an example of what isnt working.  I'm new and the syntax of how to do this is foreign.  Thanks.

So the  https://app.hubspot.com/contacts/999999/contact/  is the static part and I want to append the hubspot_id field at the end to create a hyperlink.  Thanks!
