Change Airtable checkbox field value with one click?

Hi, I’m trying to look for a way to have either a button or a link that once clicked, checks the value of a checkbox field in Airtable. Right now, if I use an update action button, that requires 3 clicks from the user (click button > check checkbox > submit form in modal window) which is super annoying. Any way to do that in a single click?

This is now fully supported with the introduction of ‘One-click update’ for action buttons in order to avoid the modal box.

Hi @acjnas
Although I ready the instructions for the one-click update I still don’t understand how to check the airtable check box field with the one-click update button. I was thinking I would send a custom value but I am not sure what the custom value would be. Could you please describe in more detail what I should do to make this work?

Thanks

Hi Ella,

The value are “true” or “false” - or “yes” or “no” for the checkbox.
true or yes being the values for “checked”
