Button feature missing for tables??

[jiahn326]

Hello,

I have a couple issues with the button feature. As shown in the first screenshot provided, I added a button for each row in the table in the Coda doc. When I click the button, I want to send the data in the row from the Coda doc to a Python file using JSON. However, I could not find a way to do this using the current Coda APIs. Do you have any idea how this can be done?

Also, when I used the Coda API to get a row from the Coda table (attached images below), there are no values present for the button and notes column. I want to know if there is an issue with the Coda API or if there is an error on my part.

Coda Doc Table:

Python Code:

Terminal Result:

Please let me know if there is a solution or a recommendation.

Thank you!

I think it's not implemented. I just chatted with the support bot,

I've looked in the API documentation, and I can't find anything about retrieving formulas for buttons using Rest.

and got this:

You're correct - our REST API doesn't currently support retrieving button formulas specifically. Our API allows you to access computed values from formulas and user-selected values from controls, but it focuses on data operations like listing tables, retrieving rows, inserting/updating data, and managing docs and pages. Button formulas (including labels, actions, and disable conditions) aren't exposed through the REST API endpoints. The API is designed primarily for data manipulation rather than accessing the configuration details of interactive elements like buttons. For the complete list of available API capabilities, you can check our full API documentation at https://coda.io/developers/apis/v1.
