Looking for ideas on how to open an Airtable form with a checkbox trigger.  I'd like to avoid using google forms.  I've tried using javascript with no success.  

window.open(URL, '_blank');

Any other ideas?  Seems awkward that you can open google forms with a trigger and not Airtable forms.

you can open it using a button in your Interface or a button field if you are in the data editor.

you can create a formula field with the form url. Also you can prefill it and do some conditional blocking to meet some conditions before.

Thanks for the reply, yeah that's plan B If I'm not able to automate the process.  I'm still hoping that if I give an item a green thumbs up that I can trigger an Airtable form to appear.
