I'm sure there are several ways to do this but here is the way I do it. I create a helper table with one Record ID in it and I use it to record the number of records to be created and the Record ID# of the Parent table.
I then have another helper table with say 1000 records in it.
I relate those two tables based on the formula reference field of a 1. I look up the number of records to be created down to my thousand record helper table along with the [Record ID# of the parent table. I put a flag on that field if that record is OK to copy to my target Child table based on is the [Record ID#] is less than or equal to the # of children required.
I then set up a saved table to table copy to copy across Hertz from the thousand record helper table which qualify, to the child table.
And then I said a pipeline to trigger and set the values in that single record table for the number of records to be created and the record ID of the parent
I then have a ste to call a Quickbase API to run the saved T2T import with a simple URL

nothing else is required
