Row → Create
AI-generatedOverview
This node creates a new row in a specified SeaTable table. It is useful for automating data entry into SeaTable, such as adding new records from form submissions, integrating data from other applications, or batch processing data inputs. Users can either auto-map input data fields to SeaTable columns when the names match or define each column's value manually.
Use Case Examples
- Automatically add new customer data from a CRM system into a SeaTable table.
- Insert rows into a SeaTable table based on processed data from previous workflow nodes.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Table Name | The name of the SeaTable table where the new row will be created. Users can select from available tables or specify a name using an expression. |
| Data to Send | Determines how the input data is sent to the new row: either auto-mapping input fields to columns or defining each column's value manually. |
| Inputs to Ignore | When auto-mapping, specifies input properties to exclude from being sent to SeaTable, separated by commas. |
| Columns to Send | When defining columns manually, specifies the columns and their values to be set in the new row. Supports expressions and various data types like dates, durations, checkboxes, and multi-selects. |
| Save to "Big Data" Backend | Indicates whether to write the new row to the Big Data backend, which requires activation in the SeaTable base. |
| Apply Column Default Values | If not using the Big Data backend, determines whether to apply column default values when creating the new row. |
Output
JSON
id- The unique identifier of the newly created row in SeaTable.tableName- The name of the table where the row was created.data- The data of the created row, including all columns and their values.
Dependencies
- Requires connection to SeaTable API with appropriate credentials to access and modify tables.
Troubleshooting
- Ensure the table name is correct and accessible with the provided credentials.
- When using auto-mapping, verify that input field names exactly match the SeaTable column names or use an 'Edit Fields' node to rename them accordingly.
- If writing to the Big Data backend, confirm that it is activated in the SeaTable base; otherwise, the operation will fail.
- Column types like links, files, images, or digital signatures cannot be set with this node and must be handled separately.
