Is it possible to have a user share their location when they tap a button, rather than them having to open a form, switch on the share location toggle and click submit - as they do here?

I don’t think you would necessarily have to use a form for this. A location component on a detail screen could be set to fill a user specific column. Then use a button with an Add Row action to pass along that user specific location column to another table. You could also create a custom action and do the add row followed by a set column to clear the user specific column again.

Thanks that sounds good, I’ll give that a try and let you know how I get on.
