This probably has been requested in this or that form but I cannot find those threads now. Please add a capability to define an On change action on each control or table column. The action would fire right away in a user’s browser when they change the value. It should only execute on changes made …

yes! just ran into this. I want to be able to highlight a row thats been changed so the user knows they need to click a button to push the changes to an API. I dont want them clicking after every change, I just want them to know they have several changes that havent been applied yet and they can …

I agree. Having to click a button after adding or changing a value in a control is very inefficient. Pressing ENTER or TAB after filling in data is much easier.

Hey just adding my vote to this! Instant on change events allow for building such powerful apps. The last low code platform I used had this until it was bought out and made private. I really miss this functionality!

+1 I was just looking for the same thing. Seems like a basic UI feature!

there is a way… [image] FAST automation rules [hack] Tips and Hacks @Ryan_Martens2 , we have been using this hack for a while for situations similar to your demo. but the way we trigger the rule is much simpler and easier to set up than what you have shown. …

Not really a way unfortunately, as it comes with inconveniences: someone has to click the button to start the loop when they open the tab nobody else must click the button when the loop is running the loop will only be running for as long as that original person has their tab open the person must …
