Duplicating A Record In A Table From A Record In A Datapage Using Javascript.

[JaredL]

I am creating an application where I log daily events so I can view them in a DataPage report.  I would like to be able to copy a record if I repeat an event, instead of re-entering the data in a web form.

 

I was told I would have to create a hidden DataPage that auto submits the data, that will require some use of JavaScript.

 

How do I create a hidden DataPage that auto submits data with JavaScript?

Hello JaredL.

 

Welcome to Forum.

 

I think this is an article that you are looking for.

 

Let me know if you have some difficulties with a script.

Thank you Aurora, that really helped... I was able to send a string query into a hidden DataPage and auto load the data into a new record... The only part was was not able to copy was the record's picture.  Any idea of how that could be done?

 

 

Sincerely,

 

 

Jared

Hi! Just an update. You can use Triggered Action on this specific workflow. 

Triggered Actions allows you to create and execute a specified data events (i.e. insert, update or delete) to perform additional data changes and complex data calculations on the same table and other tables.

You may refer to this article for more information: https://howto.caspio.com/tables-and-views/triggered-actions/

 

I hope it helps!
