Another need for this feature: > [@\[REQUEST\] Return RowID of newly created row from an Add Row action](https://community.glideapps.com/t/request-return-rowid-of-newly-created-row-from-an-add-row-action/74020): > > Whenever I create a custom form, I’d like to return the row ID of the newly created row back to the parent table. Currently, this is only possible when adding a row via the API. My request is to add a new dropdown field on the Add Row action block That allows us to select a column to which will write the newly created row ID from the Add Row action. This is similar to the Glide API action blocks that allows us to write a response to a column once the action runs. --- _[View the full topic](https://community.glideapps.com/t/compound-action-added-new-row-setting-column-values/74244)._
