Agreed. Even Trello has this option. Lotus (pre Excel) had ability to assign hot keys to automations (macros) in the early 1980s.

I want to know when we can use buttons to trigger actions: https://help.smartsuite.com/en/articles/6805151-button-field#:~:text=operations%20or%20even-,trigger,-SmartSuite%20automations.

Until then, I'd take time e.g. for talks about this. Also willing to take other actions that would help work progress.

Great idea!

One of my workarounds for this is to set the trigger to detect a change to a toggle (true/false) switch.

You can also use a button to trigger an automation in make.com/zapier via webhook.
