halo I meet some question first of all I have tow forms (message form and map point form)
When I submit the information, the target table of the form container is message. It automatically creates a new row in the message form. This is not a problem. But when I want to copy this new row of data to the map point form at the same time, I choose to add the row automatically. However, in the add row operation, I choose the map point form as the corresponding column value in the table, but I cannot select the corresponding column value from the message form. What should I do? (As shown in the figure)

If I’m hearing you right, you need to add a row and then do something with it afterwards. What you’ll need to do is use the write row ID drop down to write the row ID of the newly created row to a user specific column in an accessible data table (I typically use the user table or the source table). Then create a relation in that data table from that row ID to the destination table and then you can take further action through that relation.

I need to add a row of data submitted to the message form to the map point form instead of writing the row id into the user configuration table or message form. Please tell me how to do it.

So can I verify your problem as this:
• You have two forms in your Glide app: a message form and a map point form.
• When you submit the message form, a new row is automatically added to the message table.
• You want the same data to also be added to the map point table at the same time.
• When you try to use the “add row” action for the map point table, you can’t select the data from the message form to copy over.
• You’re asking how to copy the submitted data from the message form to the map point table in one step.
Is that correct? Are you using a native form or an add row action for the message form?
Yes, that’s it. I used contact form to create the message form.please tell me how to do thanks!
You should be able to achieve this using the form container’s “on submit” action. Use an add row action and it will have all the context/values of the map point record that was created.

I just want to use the “On Submit” create operation to achieve this, but using the “Add Row” operation will encounter the problems I reported above
I don’t understand what the problem is that you are having . I’ve read your posts multiple times and I don’t see what the problem is. You have an Add Row action to write to the Map Points table, but you haven’t shown that you have completed the setup for that add row action. The Add Row action is showing the columns in the Map Points table and it is letting you select the values from the Messages table, so I don’t see where you are having a problem other than competing the setup of that action.
My problem is that there is no way to select a value from the message form.There is no message form option in this list
Every single one of these columns is coming from the message table. What else are you expecting to see?
This Row ID in this screenshot below is definitely from the Message table. You can see that the value shown matches the Row ID in the first row in the Message table.
I don’t understand why you say that you can’t select anything from the Message table when I’m seeing almost all columns available in the dropdown directly from the Message table.
