Expand the onboarding template to create multiple tasks in the checklist at once

Hi,
I’m new in baserow and currently I try out how baserow (Cloud, free version) can help us.

I imported the onboarding template and translated it. We have different types of employees, for whom we require—in some cases—different onboarding tasks.

In the checklist, a row is created for each employee for every (linked) task. I would like to automate this. Currently, I can only create one row at a time. It would be perfect if this could be done all at once—and with filtering applied.

Sorry for me english. I’m not a native speaker.

Best regards
Harald

Hey @hawi, welcome to the Baserow community :waving_hand:

Just to make sure I understand what you mean by “all at once” and “with filtering applied” — could you give us an example of what you would like to happen when, for example, you add one new employee? Which checklist rows would you expect Baserow to create automatically?

Thanks for your answer.

I have categorized the employees and tasks. Not every new employee requires every task.
In the meantime, I have found a solution using an automation with “Iterate over items.”
First, I load the employee, then retrieve the tasks for the relevant category, and finally create a row in the checklist for each task.

Hey @hawi, glad to hear you found a solution! And thanks for sharing it here in case future readers run into the same or a similar issue. :raising_hands:
