Pop ups as a step of the automation

[estelmach]

Hi, 

I would like to add a pop-up for one of my automations. It's triggered by button. Automation creates a record based on input from different table. I'd like to be able to have a communicate lik "created successfully" or "creation failed". Is there a way to do it?

No, that isn’t possible in Airtable, but you can simulate that with single-select fields. Here’s a good thread on that topic: https://air.tableforums.com/t/what-are-the-pros-cons-to-using-a-checkbox-vs-yes-no-single-select-vs-...

Alternatively, you can have an Airtable button trigger an automation in Make, and you can create a webhook response to give the users a response in a web browser window. 

This technique is fully explained in this thread: https://air.tableforums.com/t/sending-airtable-data-to-an-external-webhook-such-as-make-com/159
