Workflow Help

Hello! I am new to glide and have almost everything set up, but I am facing an issue with the workflow ability. I am trying to get it to be so when I click a button it will uncheck all of the items that are checked off in a specific column and clear the time when it was clicked. I thought I had everything correct yet I connected it to a button and it shows that it is running, but it isn’t actually clearing anything?

Thank you! I am still having a little bit of an issue. I downloaded the template and went through step by step with my data but I am still having trouble having me clicking the button to make it uncheck everything

The method that Darren and I use does not actually clear anything. It just gives the illusion that it does. The method does not use actual checkboxes. Be sure to read my thread linked in Darren’s post to understand how it works.

If you want to stick with the workflow method, be mindful that it is possible, but not with an app interaction workflow. The app interaction type workflow will only touch the row that your screen is attached to. The other workflow types do offer looping, but will incur many more updates compared to my method.

Sorry for all of my questions: so do you think that I will need to upgrade to explorer so I can use loop on workflow? Thank you for all the help

Yes. All workflows that allow looping need a paid plan. Just be mindful of any updates incurred with that method as those non app interaction workflows run server side and thus use server resources. The explorer plan includes 250 updates per month before charging 2 cents per additional update.
