Pipelines automation to change record owner

Question

Good morning,In short, I have created a pipeline that triggers on an event inside 'record 1'. It then creates 'record 2'. 'Record 2' ends up being created/ owned by me, however, I would like to change that to the person who created/ owns 'Record 1'.&nbsp;I am open to all ideas and suggestions.Thank you for your time.Kind regards,Shane Miller------------------------------Shane Miller------------------------------

Hi Shane;Please see Pipeline Webhook sample image below. It is for Changing record owner.In URL: you need destination table urlIn Message body:&nbsp; &nbsp;rid is record id of record you want to change record owner&nbsp; &nbsp;newowner is email address of user that you want to be record owner.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You can get these values from previous step in pipeline. I am not sure how your pipeline looks. I hope this helpsThank you------------------------------Razi D.Desta Tech LLCrazi@destatechs.com------------------------------

Hi Shane;You can add another step for API_ChangeRecordOwner.You can add a Webhook or a Json Handler in pipeline to change owner of newly created record to user you want.Please see: https://help.quickbase.com/api-guide/change_record_owner.htmlI hope this helps.------------------------------Razi D.Desta Tech LLCrazi@destatechs.com------------------------------

Thank you for your response, sorry for the delay. Would you by chance be able to send a screenshot or video of what this would look like completed? API's are confusing to me, and the literature that accompanies it hasn't quite added up for me either. To be quite honest I don't understand any of it (URL, method, name, value, content type, body, SSL). I'm not sure where to even start. Multiple records are created in my pipeline, and I'm unsure of how to address those newly created records that now have me as the record owner

I know this is an older post but I wanted to share an issue I am having.

No matter what I do, I am getting error: Remote service reported an error: HTTP status code 404 for URL

The DBID is accurate as is the app and user token's.

Interestingly whenever I put in the URL for the table it defaults to homepage. I noticed it does that for all of my tables. Wondering if there is a setting I am missing?
