What if I told you you could modify a multiple-choice field without opening the record OR using Grid Edit?
And, what if you could choose an option directly from a table report, kanban report, calendar report, or even a timeline report?
With 'Select Next' buttons you can!
These buttons allow you to cycle through a list of choices with each click selecting the next value in the list of choices.
In the Secrets of API Buttons for Quickbase training, I teach you, step-by-step, how to do just that!
This tutorial is a sneak peek into the BONUS section of the training where I walk you through the setup and a demo of the select next menu option API button IN ACTION!
FULL DISCLOSURE: The step-by-step walkthrough of the API formula is only available in the paid course (learn more here).

- Multiple choice (Status, Phase, Location, etc)

This tutorial is directly from the BONUS section of the Quick Base Junkie course Secrets of API Buttons.
