Let’s say I have a table with few rows - each one has a uniq ID

Can a button cell have a script that will identify the ID in which he was called?

for example - this is my table:

id. Button

1 Click

2 Click

when I click on the button on the first row - I can see what is also the id of this row.

Yes, you can do that with scripting. The sample script called “Record picker” (accessible when you create a new Scripting app) does mostly what you’re requesting. It’s just a matter of changing the field that you want to display once the record is selected. See below:


// Change this name to use a different table

let table = base.getTable("Button Test");



// Prompt the user to pick a record 

// If this script is run from a button field, this will use the button's record instead.

let record = await input.recordAsync('Select a record to use', table);



if (record) {

    // Customize this section to handle the selected record

    // You can use record.getCellValue("Field name") to access

    // cell values from the record

    output.text(`You selected this record: ${record.name} (${record.getCellValue('Record ID')})`);

} else {

    output.text('No record was selected');

}

Thank you so much!

I’m trying to build a like mechanism in the table hope it will work
