I am pretty versed in the “Modified Time” field type, and its options to watch certain fields, automation triggers set to watch certain fields, and I use filterByFormula with IS_AFTER({Modified}, “2020-12-18 9:00 AM”), etc to return recently modified...

Well—Airtable added #1 in the form of a “Description” field on all actions, not just Script Actions, so that’s good!
But #2 and #3 are still very much missing, and to #3 I’d like to add: the ability to duplicate actions, especially now that t...
