I need to know how i ask to run script when new record is created and define if name in:



var response = await fetch('https://api.agify.io/?name='+name);


is equal to Prénom used from table else only change records only for this person.



I give you a screen of my table



// query for every record in "trombinoscope"





let table = base.getTable("test");


let view = table.getView("Donnée brut");


let query = await view.selectRecordsAsync


(


    {


    sorts: 


         


        // sort by "Prénom" in ascending order...


        {field: "Prénom"},


        ]


    }


);





let records = query.records;


// print ID & "Prénom" from each record:


for (let record of query.records) 


{


    let name = (record.getCellValueAsString('Prénom')) ;


    let response = await fetch('https://api.agify.io/?name='+name);


    


    /*fetch('https://api.agify.io/?name='+name) ;*/





    /*console.log((await response.json()).age);*/


    let agifyAge = (( await response.json()).age);


    


    let records = query.records;


    for (let i=0 ; i<records.length ; i++ )


    {


        /*if ( name == ((await response.json()).name) )*/


        await table.updateRecordsAsync(


         


            {


            id: recordsei].id ,


            fields :


                {


                "Age estimé" : agifyAge ,


                },


            },


        ]);


    }


   


   /*console.log(await response.json());*/





    /*let json = JSON.parse(await response.json());


    console.log(jsono"age"]);*/


   


}


Create an automation that triggers when a record is created or when a record enters a view. I prefer the latter for better assurance that all the fields in the record are complete.



From this action, add a script action to capture the Prénom field value into variables from the previous step using the output feature.



// get the `Prénom` field value from the previous step


let inputConfig = input.config();


let thisPrénom = inputConfig.Prénom;


You are now ready to perform the fetch() call and test to see if it matches the captured thisPrénom value.

So i’m had to put


let inputConfig = input.config(); let thisPrénom = inputConfig.Prénom; in my for (let record of query.records) just before my fetch that right.



I’m sorry to ask this basic question but i’m learn my first time js :grinning_face_with_sweat: .

No - your requirement is simpler:





  1. Capture the input of the record ID and Prénom field from the record create step;


  2. Query the external API using that input value to get the estimated age.


  3. Update the estimated age in the record whose ID was captured when it was created.




Done
