Create New Record in Tracker table

Hi, I have a table called Projects with a file attachment field called Design.  When a file is added to that field, I would like to create a new record in my Tracker table.  Where should I start? ...

No problem 

Create a pipeline. 

Trigger on new event

when file attachment changes. 


the next step will be to create a tracker record. Be sure to populate the field for Related Project.

    Interesting thoughts sparked by a direct message to me from Mike,  this can also be done using an Action.   An Action is a direction that Quickbase abandoned development on in favour of Automations, but is really a glorified Webhook. I have no reason to think they would ever deprecate web hooks and an Action is really just a Webhook with a fancy coating (UI) on it so they will probably be around for a long time too.
