Automation Trigger:


When a record matches conditions. Conditions: {Checkbox field} = checked

Automation Steps:

1. Type: Update record
   
   
   Table: same table you clicked the checkbox
   
   
   Record ID: trigger record > record ID
   
   
   Fields:
   
   
   
   
   
   • 
     
     {Status} = complete (or whatever)
   
   
   
   
   
   

Hi Kamille


Thanks for this - it is updating the status for me, but with some weird long number, and not the status that I want - Also I can’t really see how to enter exactly what you have put in your answer - the interface I have doesn’t let me do that.


Can you point me in the direction of the best help files for automations as I feel like this is such a simple automation I am kind of wasting your time asking about it

Generally speaking, Youtubers All About that Base, Ben Green, and Gareth Pronovost have a video for effectively anything this simple for Airtable.

Here’s one from Ben:

Thank you - I will watch this (and others) and come back to ask if I am still stuck!

Appreciate your help
