Rule: Create Entity Record

Properties and configuration options for the Create Entity Record rule, which adds a new record to a Data Service entity from within an app.

Use the Create Entity Record rule to add a new record to an entity which was imported from Data Service in your app.

Which entity should record be created in?​

Clicking the Which entity should record be created in? field opens the Resources panel, which displays the available imported Data Service entities.

Select the entity to add a new record to by double-clicking on it. Once selected, the following properties become available:

  • Values to set
  • When created
  • On Error

Values to set​

Once you add the entity you want to work with, the fields for a new record are listed in this section. Mandatory fields are marked with an asterisk.

When created​

In this section you can define rules to be executed right after the creation of a new entity record is complete.

For example: You can display a success message after the record is created using the Show Message rule and selecting Success from the Type dropdown.

On Error​

In this section you can define rules to be executed when the process of creation a new record encounters an error.

For example: To track the failure, you can add a Show Message rule. You can then specify the title, message, and type of the error.

Rule output properties​

  • Error - references the error message shown if the job fails.
  • RecordId - references the ID of the specified record.
