# 😍 IT’S (almost) HERE! Now in staging is the ability to create compound actions—multiple triggered actions off a single event. #### Included is the ability to add new rows instantly without a form submission! * * * Here’s a simple example: ---

AMAZING! I see a “show in alert” action… is this new too? Could it be that we are finally getting in app notification alerts?? ![show alert](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/c/cfcbfae9289e679f85069ffaf558902ddb7260c5.jpeg) ---

No, that’s always been there in Staging—it’s used for debugging. ---

We can now do profile view counters. Basically setup an action when opening a record to open the record and increment a counter value. So many new use cases now with this functionality… so excited! ---

Could be useful though for the add row action since I didn’t see any confirmation like a form button has. Maybe this is a good argument to release ‘Show in Alert’ ---

Doesn’t this basically make forms somewhat useless? I mean I can technically capture the submitted info, send an email with the results, link to a new screen… all with the press of a single button… Right?! This also seems to add email (or email-to-sms) notification ability if configured properly. ---

I think there is still great value to forms. This feature is meant, I think, for “forms” that don’t require user interaction/input. Especially in the event that the user needs to take time to complete a form or exit a form. ---

Having similar possibilities for the Submit button would be the icing on the cake. Or changing the Submit button to a button that gets added to form screens, that could then be given multiple actions. I thought about adding a button like this inside a form, but the firm’s values aren’t “there” until they’re submitted, so the actions would need to be tied to the Submit button. Either way, this is a fantastic addition! ---
