Create Record Node

The Create Record node is used to automatically create one or more new records in a specified target table during workflow execution. It is commonly used to generate related data based on trigger record information.

When to Use

• Automatically generate a delivery record in the "Delivery Slips" table when a new order is created
• Automatically create default subtasks in the "Subtasks" table when a new task is created
• Automatically create a contract record in the "Contracts" table when a customer status becomes "Signed"

Configuration

Target Table

Select the table in which to create records. You can choose any table under the current Base.

Field Mappings

Configure the source of values for target table fields. Each mapping contains:

Configuration	Description
Target Field	The field in the target table to write the value to
Value Source	Static value or expression/field reference

Static Value

Enter a fixed value directly. Suitable for fields that do not need to change dynamically, such as:

• Status = "Pending"
• Notify = true
• Default Value = "System auto-created"

Reference Expression

Reference the trigger record or other node results using {{}} syntax, for example:

{{trigger.record.customer_name}}

Supported context variables include:

• {{trigger.record.<field_id>}}: Trigger record field
• {{node_<node_id>.record.<field_id>}}: Field from a previous node result
• {{loop.current_data.<field_id>}}: Current iteration data in a loop node

Example

Example: Auto-generate a delivery slip from a new order

Target Field	Value Source
Order Number	{{trigger.record.order_no}}
Consignee	{{trigger.record.customer_name}}
Status	Static value: Pending Shipment
Created Time	{{NOW}}

Notes

• The target table must exist and have write permissions.
• Required fields need mappings; otherwise creation will fail.
• Link fields can be populated by referencing target record IDs in expressions.
• The Create Record node can be used inside a loop body to batch-create records.
