Run a custom action when purchase is successful

So I assume you’re talking about sending an email when there’s a new row added and your If-Then-Else (?) column returns a “warning” value?

I assume you can have an on-submit action for your form that only triggers when that column’s value is WARNING, then trigger something through a webhook.

Or if you want to do that when users change something in an existing row, use the same logic in an edit screen.

I just want to send an email when a certain CALCULATED value is changed.

So users don’t change the value, they only change a switch and Glide calculates how many “false”. And if there are more “falses” than a given value, my CALCULATED field changes to WARNING. And that’s the moment when I want to have an email send to a certain person.

And there’s no on-submit action; there are only switches per user (see screenshot)

Then that won’t work. Switches do not trigger actions. You would have to use a component that can have an action tied with it in order for this to work.

How do you send a call to the Webhook? only with the URL that it leaves you when configuring it? and how do you pass the data to it? Thank you!

Hi @ThinhDinh

Can an Action Text component trigger a custom action, say Add Row, if the Action Text component = certain date i.e. 1st of the month.

We are exploring to do a recurring function that create an invoice on the 1st of every month.

Thanks for your attention and advise.

It can, but you still need a user interaction to trigger the action.

You’d be better off using something like Make or Zapier for this sort of thing. Any tool where you can set a schedule.

@Darren_Murphy Thanks for the prompt reply.

Can Zapier or Make trigger the event in Glide Table? Or will need to work on Zapier - Google Sheet?

Either can update a Glide Table via the Glide API, yes.

I have created an account with Zapier and updated the Glide - Zapier Key into Zapier

However the upload video component does not allow a trigger to Zapier.

Stuck here :sweat_smile:

Is there any video we can take reference or suggestion?

What we would like to do is:

  1. Upload video to Glide
  2. Transfer Video to our Youtube Channel via Zapier
  3. Zapier to update link to video
  4. Embed Video link in Glide.

Appreciate any advice.

I’m not familiar with Zapier, but what you want to do should be possible.

You’ll need to trigger the Zap as an onSubmit action when the form is submitted.
Your Zap would need to include the Video URL that was generated by Glide, as well as the RowID.
Once the video has been uploaded to YouTube, you would then update the URL via the API using the RowID that was submitted with the original Zap.

Did you find a solution ?
i found out, Zapier cannot set schedule.
Need user interaction.

Do you mean this type of schedule?
