Hi all, 

This has to be answered somewhere but I can't find it. Can someone advise on the URL code for adding a new record in a different application? I'm familliar with doing it within an application but can't get this to work. 

Thanks in advance.
Matt

Well, the format is identical but you cannot refer to the table name in [square brackets].  You just need to type the actual table name like

urlroot() & "db/" & "xxxxxxx" & "?act=API_ AddRecord ......

Hi Matt,

We do have an online help resource on API calls like Add Record that can be found here

The API guide shows how those calls can be built and then you can put them into a formula like the one Mark posted.
