custom button calling rest api

sskohli

Hi,

I have a smart sheet with ids and status. I want to call a rest api, send the IDs and get the current status of those ids. I have already written code which reads the ids list and gets the status and updates the status. All i need is some way to call this api from the sheet itself. Can i create a custom button, which calls this api?

No you cannot.

However, if you using a tool like Bridge, you can setup a trigger to watch the sheet for someone to check a box, then use that trigger to run your code / workflow to go get the status and post it.

If you're running your own code, you can setup a webhook to do the same thing.
