Hello Gliders! Is there a way to edit multiple rows with workflow? I had an idea to trigger JSON to a Glide webhook and I get an array of row IDs and numbers which I need to to update according to those row IDs. But I can’t loop over that array. The initial numbers are from user specific column. …

Yes, it’s possible. Can you describe your use case a bit more please? For example: are you wanting to update all rows, or just some subset of the rows? will you be setting the same values in each row, or different values per row?

Darren, thank you for your reply! Here is my use case: I have an inventory and need to update items quantity in the column there. I have row IDs of the rows I need to update those items quantities in. Initially I have Tasks with those items related. So when I complete the task and use specific it…

Okay, that’s useful. Here is how you can do it: Pass your JSON to a workflow. It needs to be either a Manual or Webhook triggered workflow. Add a Query JSON node, and point it at the Trigger Data, and extract items Add a Loop and target the transformed JSON from the Query Inside the Loop, add the …

Thank you so much! I will try this.
