Looping With Bots | Using the AppSheet API to create a bunch of child records
In this tutorial, I'll guide you through an advanced yet incredibly useful feature of the AppSheet platform: using the API to create multiple child records with the aid of a START/END loop and a template table.
This technique will allow you to take a client side action loop you may have, and convert it to run server-side instead.
This video makes use of a sample app of mine as a starting point; you can copy the app for free below (if you wish to play along at home).
