Hello,  I'm wanting to add an API button in a child table that would add a parent record and also add the parent record id to the related field in the child record.
Basically the same thing that adding a record from a record picker does but pre-populate fields in the parent record. Is this possible?
Thanks in advance for any advice!

Before API Gods reply , I think your button will be combination of two 

1. API_Add record to add a parent record
2. Get the record ID of the newly added parent record
3. Redirect back to to current child record
4. API_edit record to edit the child record and add related parent record ID 

I don't know how to do #2

Pipeline can easily resolve this ,but it would be want to see how API Gods resolve this
