Hi Everyone! I have an automation that is set to find records in a certain view and send them an email. I know when in testing Airtable will only show the first 10 records, but it is also completing the automation for the first 10 records as well and right now that view has about 18 records in it. Any advice on whats going on with it?
Can we please get a native way to output valid Markdown (that renders as rich text) from a Formula field? This simple improvement would cut down on so many hacks.
Hi,I have an automation that is triggered when a record is created in Table X, and it then creates a new record in Table Y. This automation has been working well, but recently, I've noticed some failures in the Run History.It's not happening with all cases—only some. The trigger and all other actions work fine; the only issue is with the creation of the new record. The error shown is: “Creating the record failed due to insufficient permissions.”However, when I take the same record that triggered the automation and run a manual test using it, everything works perfectly and the record is created successfully.This is quite confusing—I don’t understand why some records fail while others don’t, and why it works without issues during manual test runs.Could you please help me troubleshoot this?
Yeah, we can turn a single-select status-like field into kanban view workflows for teams. Got it.But how to add more info for each of these kanban workflow steps? To document the workflow, to give team member easy access to "what should I do at this step?" Links to related assets, templates, full docs, Loom videos etc?Yeah, you can do a 2 table approach, where you have a more robust "Steps" table instead of a single-select "status" type field. But then you lose the ability to have a "steps as kanban columns" view.How do you all build card-moving kanban views that also act as helpful process deocumentation for each of those steps?thanks!
Hey Everyone! Curious to know if any of our education leaders have built out a relatively robust one-stop-shop for all things Airtable at your institution as you welcome new users into your user community? What have you included? How have you designed it? Anyone will to share a template so that others across this user group can rip and replace?
Hello!We have a dashboard interface that we share with our clients. While we filter the elements of the dashboard to show records only where an email field in the record is the same as the login email of the Airtable account, anyone can still see a full list of who has access to the dashboard and their Airtable email addresses. This has been brought up as a concern as various countries would see that as a possible privacy infringement since contact information is shared. Is there a way to hide this information to others that also have visibility of a public shared link (be it to a base, or interface)?

Hi!I used to embed a regular gallery view in my WordPress web site but I did not like how the title of each card (primary field) where always cut off. I tried creating an interface design of the same gallery, embed it, and I really liked the result. Titles were visualized in its complete form and the whole thing looked better and cleaner.The thing is that for some reason, the mobile version of the embed gallery interface came out grayed with a message saying "viewport too small to display the gallery element". I checked out the embed code and it was basically the same for both for the regular gallery view and the gallery interface. Nontheless, the regular gallery view showed in the mobile version of the website and the gallery interface not. If anyone has an idea or suggestion on what is causing this and how to solve it I'd appreaciate it.

Hi Everyone,I’m reaching out because we’ve hit the automation limit on a base that has grown into a key tool for our team. What began as a course-to-community partner matching system has since evolved into our Master CRM and now also includes evaluation workflows.As we consider next steps, we’re wondering whether to split our workflows into separate bases to reduce strain or to consolidate further using scripting or other advanced methods. One of our key challenges is that our data is highly interconnected, which makes us hesitant to break it into separate systems without a clear strategy for preserving those relationships. Additionally, we plan to add further workflows to Airtable, so scalability is becoming even more of a concern.If anyone here has experience successfully scaling departmental or multi-functional tasks in Airtable, we’d be grateful to learn from your approach. Please reach out to me on Teams, and we can set up a meeting to talk more about our work and explore possible
Hi,We run a photo studio CRM with Airtable, and would like to start storing customer end product images there. This would mean some 20-30 images at 2-3 mega each and hundreds of customers annually. We’re on the Team plan so have 20 gigs limitation per base for attachments, so space would end quite soon.The for me easy and obvious solution was to write to Airtable sales to ask if one could just pay for more storage, since we don’t need the Business plan additional features (and eventually that would also hit storage limitations), but they don’t seem to be responding.I know the storage limit is per base so I guess one could somehow create more bases just for adding attachment storage, but I don’t see how to do that. And it seems this would create problems when we need the second, the the third “extra” base.Hence my question here, what would your experiences be with this?Any best practices here?Rgds,Björn
What is the best way to show subtasks in the timeline view?I use Airtable to manage projects. Currently they don’t show any kind of relationship and often end up moving across the page because of the default time sort. Ideally they’d group together from the parent. All of the tasks are in one table, labelled either task or subtask, and the subtasks are in a connected to the parent in a linked field.
I have a single select field in an interface that allows users to enter new values if what they need isn’t already on the list. This will grow over time and it would be a lot more useful if it was in alphabetical order, but I don’t want to have to go into the field properties every day and click the alphabetize button. Is there any way to automate this?
