Hello, I created an app with a flow, that is a long series of if then elses and built like a long custom form. At the end of this flow, I need to add rows to an Airtable table. The tricky part is that depending on criterias of the long form, I need to add from 1 to 6 rows with 2 types of rows. So it means that on the submit button of the form i need to create a custom action with 12 branches (if criteria 1 is met and criteria 2 is met then…), and several actions under these 12 ifs. It makes a super complicated action, which makes my app super slow. I don’t see any ETA on if conditions in the middle of an action tree. Do you have any idea on how to avoid this big mess? Thanks a lot ---

You’ll soon be able to do this within Glide (give it a couple months). Until then, anytime I hear someone asking for a dynamic amount of added rows, the first thing that comes to mind is to ultimately create a json object that contains each row’s worth of data in an array and send that to [Make](https://www.make.com/en/register?pc=robert) via a webhook so that you can send it back to Glide using the Glide API. ---

Okay great, thanks Robert! Could describe a bit how you would do that? (or is there a link to one of your great videos?) Thanks a lot ---

Hi, are there any updates on dynamic adding of rows? 🙂 Thank you ---

If you want to keep it solely in Glide, I would suggest using Glide’s JSON template/JSON columns, or JavaScript to construct a HTTP call body that fits with Glide’s API. Then, upon a button click, use the value above to add multiple rows. However, you must have access to the Call API action to do this. An alternative is like Robert said, constructing a JSON of info for all rows you want to add (and ideally it should be the same as the HTTP call body above), then use a Trigger Webhook action to send that to a Make webhook, do a HTTP call to batch add the rows over there. ---

It should be in beta sometime this month. Keep your eyes peeled!
