Copy a Record!

copyrecord.js

// I took one of Knack's examples and tweaked it a bit to duplicate my own records since I needed this ASAP.
// This example works off of a record's detail view to access the data. I have not worked up a table solution yet.
// TODO: - Add connected records

// Change your view
$(document).on('knack-view-render.view_12', function (event, view, data) {
// Map new record fields with current record in view
    var duplicateData = {
      // If field is connection, we need to match the ID in order for Knack to pick it up
      field_57: data.field_57_raw[0].id,
      field_56: data.field_56_raw[0].id,
      field_17: data.field_17,
      field_18: data.field_18,
      field_27: data.field_27,
      field_28: data.field_28,
      field_30: data.field_30,
      field_35: data.field_35,
      field_34: data.field_34,
      field_31: data.field_31_raw
    }
    
    // Add a button to execute the action
    $("#view_12").prepend("<button id='duplicate'>Duplicate Record</button>");
  	
  	// Add duplicate function to button
  	document.getElementById('duplicate').addEventListener('click', function () {
		Knack.showSpinner();
    	$.ajax({
    		// Change object here to match your record's object #
    		url: "https://api.knackhq.com/v1/objects/object_4/records/",
		    type: "POST",
		    headers: {"X-Knack-Application-Id": "YOUR KNACK-APPLICATION-ID", "X-Knack-REST-API-Key":"YOUR KNACK API REST KEY"},
		    data: duplicateData,
		    success: function(response) {      
		      alert('Record Added!');
		      Knack.hideSpinner();
		    }
		  });
    });
});

I'd really hesitate to put your rest api key in your code. Anyone would have access to your database this way.

What you'd want to do is pull your users permissions and use the scene/view pages to do the same.

I could not figure out how to upload records with connection fields, this solved it for me, thanks dude!
