Make the prefill form section of the guides clearer
Hi all! I’m Riz, new to Baserow and have been having fun exploring what it can do for my company. So far it seems to work great, and I am very excited to see its feature set (for formula options) expand as the program grows.
I was following the very useful guide on how to update baserow data with a form (and n8n). Got a little stuck when it came to how to update multiple fields. Although the guide talks about adding in other fields in section 4, it doesnt explain how to, and gives no examples!
So I decided to jump on to the form view help doc which details prefilling but, this also doesn’t say how to fill multiple fields. Confusingly it says “If you want to prefill multiple fields you can do so by adding a , between the values.” which is not true, and likely this should read multiple values rather then multiple fields.
I have worked out that the way to do this is via the & ampersand symbol. Probably obvious to coders, but for a no code platform with no code users (me!) this was definitely not clear and took way too long to work out… Perhaps the guides could be updated for clarity?
Separately I do feel the number of steps (and also making the prefilled link via concat when you need to prefill from multiple fields) is very long and quiet complex for those looking for quick, easy and no code! Not sure if there would be an easier way to implement useful features like this?
Anyway thanks for all your work!
Riz
