You can set up conditionals to help with this
@TheTimeSavingCo thanks
As far as I can see, the conditionals supports only `if ` and `elseif`. I want just multiple `if`s
Context: I want to run an automation when a record created. Each field can trigger different action.
Let's say I have a 3 boolean fields. For each I want to run different action based on its value and they are independents. If I had to use only `elseif` I need to have:
If option 1 checked -> action, elseif option 1 and option 2 checked -> action elseif option 2 checked - action
Do you understand what I mean?
Unfortunately, Airtable’s automations do not support running multiple “if” conditionals in a single automation. It is one of the limitations of Airtable’s automations.
In order to achieve multiple “if” conditionals, you would need to use Make’s advanced automations for Airtable, which supports an unlimited number of “if” conditionals.
If you’ve never used Make before, I’ve assembled a bunch of Make training resources in this thread.
For example, here is one of the many ways that you can instantly trigger a Make automation from Airtable.
I also give live demonstrations of how to use Make in many of my Airtable podcast appearances here.
Hope this helps!

Ah, I see! Yeap what you mentioned is pretty much the only way to handle that I'm afraid
For some reason having multiple conditionals makes the page really laggy for me so setting it up becomes a pain too, and I usually end up just setting up multiple automations instead heh
