Regards. I have another problem for example for a 20 floors building.  
each floor is a row with different values.  
but sometimes the data is repeated.  
For that, let’s need create floor 1, floor 3, floor 7, floor 8 with the same information. so need 4row’s with the same information but a different floor.  
It’s posible select checkbox maybe, some floors and create 1 row per checkbox, someone have idea o example please to resolve

You need to create inline list instead of check box list, and action when click on it will be to set column true if false, and false if true

you can add only 1 row at the time in Glide,  
to add more than 1 row you would have to use google scripts with trigger

yes you can select more rows, but action will open only one row, only google script can open x number of rows and write deferent values to it

there is no other way to open more than 1 row, you can think of other solutions… why do you need to open rows anyway??? you can just have a column that will say these rows are the same, and use filter formula to import them to the other sheet

It is for a building, each floor has departments with its characteristics. So when I create another floor the apartments are the same, it’s so as not to repeat the process several times
