In doing a direct programatic insert without a form such as db.SuperObject.insert(person_name = "Alex")

is there a way to capture the primary key during the insert as can be done in a form: super_object_fk = db.SuperObject.insert(**db.SuperObject._filter_fields(form.vars)) ?

or do I have to do a select to get the record after created?

thanks
