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 …

Automations

Email notification when @yourself in comment

Hi all, Sadly, when tagging @yourself, you do not get an email notification from Airtable. I was hoping to solve this with an automation. However, I am struggling to set up a trigger that can detect a comment, and further detect a comment where the user tags themselves. Does anyone have any experience with setting up email notifications when a user tags themselves? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Custom colors for field / column headers!

I wrote a Tampermonkey script to allow us to customize the colors of the field headers!(Tampermonkey lets you install scripts in your browser to customize and add functionality to a site, in this case, Airtable! https://www.tampermonkey.net/)To use it, you'll need to set up the exact field IDs and colors that you want those fields to be in this bit: const colorMap = { "fldI5EIoOG25a85F7": { r: 255, g: 224, b: 204 }, "fldxj4ka7M2FwkJAP": { r: 207, g: 245, b: 209 }, "fldAPHkUW98PsaZV3": { r: 255, g: 234, b: 182 } };  For the colors, just google 'Color Picker' and a bunch of options will show up (when I did this Google actually popped up its own Color Picker actually)For the field IDs, right click the field header and click 'Copy URL' and then paste it somewhere, and it'll look something like this: https://airtable.com/appbvEVTtJoARHXPM/tblkT2pj3Ouz1wQRQ/viwKoIZQGVZEAfOap/fldI5EIoOG25a85F7That last bit is what we're looking for 'fldI5EIoOG25a85F7'---Let me know

Can you sort multiple linked records inside an individual cell?

Hi Airtable Community,I have an interesting problem I did not forsee when we made a base to track equipment we rent to other contractors from time to time. We have a job (record) where we linked in individual records for different kinds of equipment and now that it has been returned, we need to be able to track and validate it is here. I have the individual records that were added inside an individual cell and it went in how we did it - meaning in no numerical order (we just grabbed a piece of equipment off the shelf, scanned it into the customers record and repeated. The issue with that is the individual records didnt go in in any discernable order. They each have a number, but I can't seem to sort by the record by that number. This creates an issue becuase in order to check the items back in (or rather validate that they made it back here) we have to visually scan through every item in the record looking for the right number. This won't work as it will take too much time as there are

Airtable AI

Instituting quality control for AI models in your builds

I wanted to share with the community a practice that we are doing as we start our AI journey for Airtable. It took a bit time to get through our security review but got the green light and we’re off!! Airtable provides a nice selection of models between ChatGPT and Claude. Reading the options some are noted to be “Low Cost”. So we had a few key questions that needed to be answered:Which model performs the best for our use case? How many credits does each model use?Our goal - pick the model(s) that ultimately produces the best results while keeping cost the lowestWe setup a simple Design of Experiment (DOE) once we completed our build and had done some thorough prompt engineering. For our specific use case, our build was to ingest applications that needed to be scored against a set criteria.Build Setup for using AI: 3 fieldsField 1 - Score the application and produce a numeric whole value (e.g. 5) Field 2 - Score the application and produce a numeric value with justification for the sco
