How to add a table to an interface

Hi everyone!I have created an interface to keep me organized, and one thing I would like to add is a table that would function like the data side, just within the Interface. For my specific example, I have various groups I invite to events, and it would be helpful to have a table with the group name, group contact, and then a checkbox for when I’ve contacted them. My interface is a “Record Review” interface.Does anyone know how I can achieve this? Any help is appreciated!

Status Code Error: 403

Hi guys, I'm trying to connect Airtable with Make. My Make.com module is returning "Status Code Error: 403" and I can't connect up my Airtable. I initially had it working and then created some new bases, so I generated a new Personal Access Token. Not working. Have tried different permissions. Logging out, logging in (I know). Etc.  Any suggestions?

Mentee/Mentor Matching

Hello, I help run a nonprofit that has a mentoring program where both mentors and mentees apply and then we make matches between them, and this is the first year we’re using Airtable to help power this.I have two tables within the same base: one for mentors, who have filled out a form and indicated topics that they are interested in mentoring, and then another for mentees, who filled out a different form and indicated topics they would like to be mentored on. Both “topics” fields have the same list that fills in a multiselect field.I have a junction table (“Match”) setup to be able to link mentor+mentee, but I’m running into a lot of difficulties automating the process.Ideally, here’s what I’d like:An automation that goes through every entry in the Mentor list, and then for each Mentor, adds every potential Mentee match to the junction table if any topic matches, and A field for each match in the junction table that tells us how many topics match, so for instance we can manually review

Airplane working OFFLINE

Hi all, we had developed a nice data base application, but sometime users have limited access to internet, I’m trying to work around this challenge, so one of the Ideas are: Question:Can the final users in the field download the Airtable application on their Tablets and work on the database offline since there is poor or no connectivity at the sites. Then, when they are back in the office can they sync it to the main cloud-based database Ideas: Download the portion of the DB into CSV to the local PC, then updates offline and then upload it back to the DB, however and afraid the users enter wrong information or get confused by the layout. Install or add an extension to the DB but I don’t know which could be to let the users work offline. I will appreciate your ideas and thoughts …

Automation of assigning tasks to users in airtable when records are created in softr via API

I’ve just started some work as a freelancer for a company who have an eco system where airtable is the referencing hub for projects. Softr is used to create records linked to projects and the API pushes through the records to sit in Airtable. I’m searching for a way to create workflows easily:Generate automations whereby records that are imported from Softr to Airtable are automatically assigned to people in user groups on a sequential basis to spread workload Create a dashboard on progress for each user and user group to track progress.NB- this is entirely project based and therefore each step must be complete before progression. Thanks alot in advance for your input and advice!

Resize and compress images

Hello 🙂I am creating a scenario in Make(Integromat) to resize images, and compress if they exceed 5MB in size.Bellow is the screenshot of the scenario I have created, but it is not working as expected.   I use HTTP to check the resized image size in MB  From here on, I am no longer sure what I did wrong, but Get multiple variables does not give me the resizes and compressed image. If the scenario received two images, one being resized and other compressed, I get two same compressed images.  I would really appreciate help.Thank you, Pjero 🙂

Base64 conversion

Hi everyone ! I am trying to authenticate a request using Basic Auth. I then need to base64-encode my logins. (could encode them manually and then insert but would prefer to keep that logic in the code) I didn’t found how to achieve this “natively” without rewriting the entire encoding function. btoa() does not seems to work :confused: Can anyone help me on this ? Thanks

Any idea on how to create a formula will be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Rollup only including first value and omitting the rest

I have a table where you can chose a proposal number and in another column you can add an amount. In another table (linked to the first one) I want to be able to chose a specific proposal number and sum all the amounts related to that specific proposal number. In the second table I have a rollup but it only includes the first amount associated to the proposal number. For example if a specific proposal has 4 entries (same proposal number but 4 different amounts on 4 rows) it only includes the first amount and omits the rest. Any thoughts on why this is? Thanks!

Dynamic filter not working on self-linking relationship

This might be a bug or I’m doing something wrong. I have a self-linking field in the object_types table called parent that establishes a child parent relationship between types. In my part_object table I lookup the part’s parent’s object_type. The desired behavoir is that any part that is a child of an assembly will only display object types that are a child of that assemblies object type. When I set this up I’m not getting anything. Either I’m missing something or there is a bug with dynamic filters for self-linking relationships. Anyone have any experience with dynamic filters for self-linking relationship fields?

Reformatting Titles

I have a list of names in the format John Smith MD or John Smith, MD (some with commas, some without) and I’d like them to be in the format Dr. Smith. Is there a formula that can do that for me?
