I’m using Airtable to organize a writing group, and I’m trying to set up an automation that will send a weekly reminder about the meeting on the day before we meet, but only to the people who opt into the reminders (who are all listed in a “Reminders List” view of my “Members” table). However, when I activate the automation, it sends multiple emails to each person on the list. How have folks set up weekly reminders to a designated group? I can’t seem to get the table’s “email” field to work as a correct input for “To” so I’ve used another airtable community post’s recommendation of the “find records” action to make a list of people needing the email...but now instead of four people each receiving the email once, each of us receives the email four times. Here’s what I currently have set up, in case that’s helpful:Trigger: at a scheduled time (Mondays at 10am) - WORKS First Action: find records (From the “Members” table, make a list of everyone in the “reminders list” view) - WORKS Secon
Hello I struggle to configure an action button in the Record Detail view: I wish to update a check box field to ‘NO’ and then to ‘YES’ such that to trigger an automation, but that does not work. It is weird that if I configure both Updates to ‘YES’, the Button takes the ‘After.. ‘ appearance as default. What am I missing?Thanks 2 Updates Button This is what I wish to doWeird behaviour (??)
I’m trying to use the record review interface in one of my interfaces, but instead of loading the record details, it just shows a persistent loading spinner and nothing ever appears. I’ve tried refreshing and checking permissions. Has anyone encountered this before or found a fix?
Hello!When uploading images/attachments, the images are being put all into the same “Attachment” cell. I am trying to find a method that forces each image to get its own row in the table instead of being grouped together in a single cell.Can anyone help me out with this?Thanks,Doug.
The Long Text field in Airtable is currently way too small. It was previously possible to expand the size of the long text field to make it easier to read…. long text….I wish that they would bring back the option to resize this field so that it wasn’t such a pain to use. If resizing isn’t possible to bring back, then I wish that they would either:1) Expand the default size significantly;2) Allow users to make the long text field full screen; or3) Make the Long Text input box responsive so that it increases and decreases in size based on the amount of long text that is in the field.This would prevent users from having to constantly scroll to see long text in the long text field. We don’t need this to be as feature friendly as a full scale text editor (although that would also be great), but it should at least allow you to easily see the long text that is in this field without having to scroll for hours. It’s a huge pain to use for long text in its current form. So much wasted space!!!
I’m having trouble making a successful API request via Postman, and a co-worker pointed out that the documentation says a requirement is for the user to be an “Enterprise admin”.See here: https://airtable.com/developers/web/api/hyperdb-table-read-recordsWhat admin roles, listed on the page below, does that refer to?https://support.airtable.com/v1/docs/admin-roles-in-admin-panel-overview-and-managementMy current role is an “Integration admin”. Does this role count as an “Enterprise admin”? Do all those listed roles count? Are these different contexts?
Hi, wonder if I can relate data in different workspaces. Or it will be completely separated?
What are some good software options for automating generation of word docs using data from a record in Airtable? I would like to be able to trigger the automation in an Airtable interface (as opposed to an extension on the data side).
Looking for a better way to setup this interface so that it is more efficient. I’m currently using a list view to enter information to create a project estimate. In the photo, the user enters information for each workspace they are updating. There could be up to 15 workspaces but I don’t want to list 15 seperate sections on this view. I would rather it be setup to where the user would enter the data for the 1st workspace and if needed have an option to add a 2nd, 3rd, and so on but not have to show all 15 empty workspaces like shown. The 2nd part of this is when the estimate is emailed to the team, all of the workspaces are showing up as a grid whether or not information has been filled in. Optimally, I only want workspaces to show up if data has been entered.
Hi, I am using the Typeform integration and one question (single select) has 750 options. In Airtable: It is possible to massively add options to the single selection or multiple selection. Instead of paste it the 750 options one by one. thanks
I have a form that someone may fill out multiple times using the same email address. I want to use that email address to update the original record created with the new information (if it is new). Can someone guide me through the automation to do this?
The bases I create are labeled “External” (even after accepting my Organization's invite) and lack the same functionality as bases created by the Big Boss. Are there currently settings that ensure bases created by users within the organization are internal (and benefit from the functionality associated with our price plan)? Would changing my permissions level from “Creator” to “Owner” make a difference? I guess I’m confused that a user can belong to an organization, yet the bases they create do not. Put another way, in practice, every user other than the Big Boss is individually on the “free” plan and creates only stripped-down “External” bases. I'm told we're in the process of migrating from Teams to Business. Will that remedy this? It doesn't make sense to me that only one person has full functionality, regardless of number of users in the plan. I don't have access to the organization's settings. Are the ones with access simply overlooking something?I appreciate any clarity provided.
Hi Airtable folks, I’ve got this really fun bookkeeping base I’ve created, which I use in conjunction with Fintable.io (a way to push bank transactions into Airtable – highly recommend!). Since Fintable downloads the transaction names from my bank statements in all sorts of different ways depending on how the banks format them, I wanted to create a formula to extract the Vendor name from when I receive or send money through Zelle. The thing is that this can show up in a variety of ways:ZELLE FROM FIRSTNAME LASTNAME ON DATEZELLE TO FIRSTNAME LASTNAME ON DATEZelle Payment to FirstName LastNameZelle Payment from FirstName LastNameZelle Payment to FirstNameZelle Payment from FirstNameAnd so on… What I’m getting stuck on is how to combine two formulas I ended up creating: one that returns both the first name and last name of the person (but when there is no last name, returns some of the random extra characters after the first name), and one that returns only the first name, whether there
