Can I create an entry in a database from another database entry link ?

Question

In a database A, I have an entry link field that displays entries from database B.

In order to create an entry, I need to go to database B, create the entry, then link it in database A.

Is it possible to create the entry in database B, linked to database A, directly from database A view ?

When I click "add an entry" from database A, I can only select entries from database B but not create one from there.

Okay, thank you :(

Yes I understand that. The reason why I was asking is because this feature is available on Notion which is quite similar to Confluence DB in spirit

Hi @Thibault Rihet

No this is not possible.

Be aware the Confluence DB function is not like a database to store information like Postgres, SQL or other.

It's a function to store information to be used on Confluence pages.

Hi @Thibault Rihet Welcome to the community!

Unfortunately, in Confluence, the current database entry linking feature does not support creating new entries in another database (e.g., database B)  directly from the view of database A. You can only link existing entries from database B to database A.
