Hi,

There seems to be some type of issue with create a row. I have reviewed numerous posts and videos and this does not seem to be working. Is it because you have already referenced create row somewhere else. This seems straight forward but it keeps failing. Any ideas on why this is failing?

You need to give some more detail about what you are trying to do. Is this the built-in table, Google Sheets or other?

Showing your blocks may also help someone to troubleshoot.

I am not using create a row anymore I am now trying to use a WebAPI post and have not luck with the post as the API Documentation states there must be a record and fields. Is this correct? “records”: [ { “fields”: { “FirstName”: “Lucy”, “LastName”: “Weldon” } }, { “fields”: { “FirstName”: “Lucy”, “LastName”: “Weldon”

Why does it need to be two?
