Populating a table with records

[Jake_Tickle]

How can I populate a table with Records from another table? for example. I would like to have a checkbox that when “checked” adds a Record to another table in the same base. When I “un-check” said box the record is deleted from the conditional table. This is essentially a view across multiple tables.

This is not something you can do with Airtable’s native functionality - but it can be done by using external automation services (like Zapier, for example).

Jake_Tickle:

This is essentially a view across multiple tables.

Are you wanting the record that is created in the “conditional table” to be identical to the originating record, or is it a different kind of record entirely?

If the records are identical, then you’re right, it really is a View you are speaking of, and what you want could really be achieved by creating a dedicated view in the first table that filters out “un-checked” records.

If the new records that are created or deleted are not identical to the originating records, then external automation is really your only choice. I can offer more help with that if desired, but automation this heavy is going to require a subscription account with an automation service.
