Trigger function by checking checkbox

Question

I have a sheet with checkboxes in the first column. I would like to be able to trigger a function by checking a box. Right now all the checkboxes are set to false/unchecked. Is there anyway to trigger an event by checking a box?

Answer 1

The following is not much of an answer, but does log ONEDIT when clicking or unclicking a checkbox. Maybe it can be used as a start for something more complicated.

function onEdit(e){
  if (e.range.columnStart == 1 && e.range.columnEnd == 1 && e.range.rowStart <= 2000) {
    Logger.log('ONEDIT');

  }
}
