So, we now have actions on form submit. How about actions on item edit and item add? 😃

Would love this as well to trigger actions on item addition!

There is already a way to do this, you just need to ignore the default add/edit methods, and create your own Add/Edit screens. I actually prefer doing this way. Apart from giving you access to compound actions, you can put a nice big button on the screen that the user can’t miss 😆

Yeah I did use this approach once by changing the tab to a detail screen.

Looks like we can now add actions on submit though - @Pablo_books
