I’m working with Softr app integrated with AirTable and I’m trying to archive “soft deletion” effect. I want to have button “Delete” on details page (sycned with airtable row), after which confirmation modal will prompt and then, after confirmed, record is being soft-deleted (update on one column).
Currently I’ve got following setup for that:
- in AirTable I have checkbox field “deleted”. Rows which are soft deleted have that checkbox ticked and they do not appear in Softr app
I was trying different approaches in softr but got some obstacles:
- one-click update button. that would work but: (1) i see no way to bring confirmation popup; (2) not sure what will happen after click as details page is rendered only for non-soft-deleted rows and button is placed on details page so user will remain on details page but row will be soft-deleted thus data should not load into Softr
- Intermediate page “Deletion confirmation” and “delete” button on details page which is opening that dedicated Softr page. Problem here is “how do I pass information which record should be deleted to that page” ?
I’m seeking for any suggestions for solution of that problem. Maybe anyone sees different approach to achieve same goal ? or maybe one of these two proposed by me above is fine and I can overcome problems I’ve explained above ?
I’m new in Softr (but definitely not new in programming and web development) so please bear with me
