Create a Button Automation in Fibery
Create a database Button, give it an action, and invoke it from an entity or a selected set of table rows. Use it when a human should choose the moment.
Before you start: Configure with Space Architect access. People executing the button need the relevant editing permissions; a button is not a way around a read-only grant.
Worked example: A Claim feature button assigns the current PM to a Feature. It avoids picking a person manually without making every new Feature belong to the database administrator.
Step-by-step guide
Define one deliberate action
Choose a clear name such as Claim feature. Do not hide deletion or external notifications behind a vague label like Process.
Create the Button
Open the Space database’s Buttons section and select + New Button. Set the name before adding actions.
Configure assignment
Select + Add Action and use Assign to me for the Feature’s People field. Confirm which field is being assigned.
Run on one sample
Open a sample Feature and click its visible button or select it from the entity … menu. Check the assigned person afterwards.
Check table execution
In Table View select sample rows using their checkboxes, open Actions and choose the Button. Confirm the intended selection and permissions first.
Common mistakes
Testing only as Admin
A button that works for its creator may be unavailable to a reviewer without edit rights. Validate the actual user role.
