Adds a record through the table Add record form.

Quickbase API: https://cotlet.dev/docs/api/quickbase.md

`POST https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/quickbase/records`

Access: write.

Fills the table's Add record form and saves it. Fields are set by their label on the form; list_fields shows which ones exist and which are required. A value in the wrong format is rejected by Quickbase and nothing is saved. It reaches no one by itself and is undone with delete_record, so it does not wait for your OK. A Pipelines or notification rule in your app can still run on save, so a record can start work in the app.

## Parameters

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `app` | string | yes | App name as it appears under My apps, e.g. 'Field Ops'. |
| `table` | string | yes | Table name as it appears in the app's sidebar, e.g. 'Work orders'. |
| `fields` | object | yes | Field label to value, as on the Add record form, e.g. {'Title': 'Replace pump seal'}. |
