Problem
Currently, it is not possible to set a preset or pre-filled value for an attribute when creating an object(on the Create Object screen)
Suggested Solution
Enable a configurable option to add preset value for an attribute such that when a user opens the Create Object screen, the attribute field already has a value set.
Why This Is Important
- Preset values can reduce human error and save time for object creation
- It can be used to set attribute description on a Text attribute, as there is a limitation on the visibility of attribute description once an object is created. Refer to the open Feature Request JSDCLOUD-13327: Ability to see Attribute's description on hovering cursor on its name
Workaround
Create an automation to auto-populate the attribute value after an object is created. The automation will consist of the following:
- Trigger Object Created - Select the desired object schema
- Action Edit Object - Select the attribute and add the value that should be displayed after object creation
