🧑🔧Update Items/Update Form
The "Update Items" screen type in NotionApps allows you to create screens that enable users to update items or pages directly within your app. This feature provides a seamless way to modify data stored in your Notion databases.
The updates reflect on Notion immediately.
To create an "Update Items" screen, follow these steps:
Open the NotionApps app builder.
Click on the "+ New Screen" button located at the bottom right of the builder.
In the screen configuration, select the desired Notion database you want to update items/pages for.
Choose the screen type "Update Items"
Now, you can navigate to the editing screen in two ways:
Use the "Go to Screen" button in the screen configuration section.
Click on a specific row within the app preview.
Once you access the "Update Single Item" screen, you can configure it with both "View" and "Update" components to display and modify the properties of the item/page.
To add components to the screen, follow these steps:
Click on the "+" button in the screen configuration section.
Choose whether you want to add a component to "View" or "Update" the property.
Select the specific property or field you want to include in the screen.
Within the configuration of each component, you have additional options:
Set properties as "required" to ensure users provide input for those fields.
Define visibility logic based on other properties, allowing dynamic display or hiding of certain components.
Adjust the type of component to best represent the property, such as using a dropdown, multi-select, file picker, media uploader, text input, or date picker.
In the above screen, if you update the value in "Status" or the "Optional Due Date" inputs, you can further click on save to see the new values on Notion.
By customizing the "Update Items" screen with the relevant components, you provide users with a streamlined interface to view and modify the data in your Notion databases.
