Hello,

There is something that I can’t explain when creating an action adding first a new row with datas in a sheet then choosing between **Link to screen** and **Navigate to Tab** to go to that sheet in the App.

On the one hand, when you choose **Link to screen** after creating a new row the new screen shows automatically the first row of the sheet (and not the row you created) and you need another action (with a relation column) to get to the row you just created.

On the other hand, when you choose **Navigate to tab** you go directly to the last row (the one you created). Hence no need to do a relation column BUT you need to add a Tab which is not what I want.

If anyone knows how to use Link to screen and go directly to the last row created that would be great.  
Thanks

You would need to be a `link to screen` via a relation that points to that last row OR `link to screen` \> `this item` \> add an inline list component that’s filtered to that last row. Probably the easiest way would be to do a single value column \> last \> whatever sheet \> rowID, then relate the rowID of the single value column to the rowID of the sheet you’re referencing.

Hello Robert  
Thanks for your message and help! I started to have the same idea as you described (with a single value column) but with link to screen it’s a 2 step process still

Step 1/ new row action + link to screen (then the action shows you an inline list with this item only thanks to the single value column which is what I want)

BUT

Step 2/ you have to click on it to add new data on that “mother” row, and I need to then to create daughters row that I can relate for further purposes (that part works)

But with navigate to tab it’s one step only I add new row and I am in the new mother row immediately no need to click on it. 😉  
Keep up the good work (If I understand well you are a teacher like me;-))
