Insert Rows

This action inserts one or more rows in a spreadsheet.

Properties

The Insert Rows action can be configured using the following properties:

Insert Where

This option specifies where to insert the rows. Options are:

  • First
  • Before (Default)
  • After
  • Last
Number of Rows

The number of rows to insert.

Set as Named Range

Range name options are:

  • Auto (Default)
  • Named: If you select this option, specify a name of the range.
Range Name

Has two options, Auto or Named.

Auto gives the range a name which is number. The first Auto-numbered range will have number 1, the next number 2 etc. Note that the number may change if additional Auto-numbered ranges are inserted before this step (on the same page).Named gives the range a fixed and explicitly stated name, which has several advantages:

  • It is easier to remember what the named range identifies if it has a well-chosen name
  • An explicitly named range is not affected if another named range is inserted before it
  • If you use the same name again, the name will simply be made to refer to the new range (useful for stateful in-page looping
