**Subject: How to Protect an Airtable App from Copying and Resale?** Hi everyone, I’m developing an Airtable application and have found a developer to finalize it. However, I want to ensure that they **can’t copy or resell my work**. What are the best practices to: - **Limit permissions** (prevent duplication of the base) - **Restrict access to automation and API keys** - **Secure the app using interfaces** - **Legally protect my project (NDA, intellectual property rights)** If anyone has experience with securing their Airtable setup or has practical suggestions, I would really appreciate your insights! 😊 Thanks in advance for your help.
Stick with me, there is a question at the end of this lol.BACKGROUND: I own and operate a medical records retrieval company. Law firms will hire my company to retrieve medical bills/records on their behalf. They then use said medical bills and records in order to negotiate a settlement with the insurance company on behalf of their injured client.CONTEXT: We currently send hundreds of requests for medical bills/records each month to medical facilities all over the state. Each of these requests typically require us to do follow ups with the medical facility because they are often swamped and under staffed. Often times this process can take weeks or even months to complete a single retrieval. Resulting in us have hundreds if not thousands of pending requests for bills/records at any given moment. So, in order to not lose track of any of these requests, and to ensure we know where we are at in the "retrieval" process for each request, I created private bases for each of m
Hi all, hoping the hive mind can solve for what I think may be a common use case. Here we go…I have two tables:Table 1: List of records from form submissions. Records are only added to this table. Records are linked to another table with multiple look up fields. We have an automation that when a record is created in this table it finds a record in Table 2 by matching against a unique identifier and updates the lookup fields. If the unique identifier is not matched, the linked and lookup fields remain empty as seen in the screen grab below. Table name is named 1. Onboarding Form Table 2: List of records that is overwritten daily by an external sync. With any given update, records remain, are added to and/or fall off the list so it’s not a situation of “when a record is added” or “enters a view”. Table is named 2. Sync from Volunteer LeadershipObjective: Set up an automation whereby any record in Table 1 where the linked record field is empty attempts to lookup records in Table 2 based

I'm glad you can share an individual page in an interface. It's a decent improvement but still not the best solution. Now, if you could public share a full interface or at least the overview page, it would be such a much needed game-changer.Being able to share the Overview page of an interface with a nice cover image would be so helpful when sharing with a client or customer. It looks professional, well organized and nicely structured. Perfect if you want to share only the information without providing full access.Notion (overrated IMO) allows this (sharing of a workspace) where you can organize it and make it look professional. Currently in Airtable, when I end up haveing to share multiple URLs for different pages, clients get very overwhelmed. Being able to publicly share an interface would be incredible.
My team’s use of Airtable is growing a lot this year. As we develop new bases, there is basic, teamwide information that is repeated in tables across those bases. For example - locations, events, people.I’ve researched synced tables and feel like I have a basic understanding of how they work. Often, though, my experience is that I learn while building or doing work that a certain feature doesn’t do what I thought it would do based on my research.So I’m just looking for community feedback on this approach - perhaps setting up a base that houses tables with these basic details and then syncing those to multiple other bases. Are there limitations on the way you can use/interact with data that is coming from another table that make this not worth it?
If anyone is interested we created an Airtable Shopify Integration (SyncBase) as we needed it.It instantly syncs your store data both way so you can update your products catalog, received orders to follow your raw materials stocks and do a lot of others importants operations.We planned to create our custom ERP on Airtable and then use this app to received and send data to Shopify.Happy to get your feedbacks in order to improve it!
Hi Everyone,Hope you can help me out please.I have a table with a client session log adding a new record for each client when they have another session: I would like to be able to show how many sessions each client has had (eg the maximum number of sessions). In this case for Jamie it will show 3.I want to be able to bring the name and number of sessions into a report - Jamie - 3, Siobhan - 2, as a list.Could anyone please help me to generate this field so that I can pull it into a report?Thanks so much for taking the time to look at this if you are able.Kind regards,Siobhan
Hi Everyone,I really hope you can help me.I have a table (Client Session Log) which creates a records every time the client has a session. I’m creating an automation, where a forms is emailed out to the client after Session 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.It works up until the email part. The email address for the client is in the Client Coaching table: This is how I set up the email section:1.2.3.4. I am getting the following error message: I would really appreciate some advice here.Thank you if you have taken time to look at this. Kind regards,Siobhan
I’m creating an extension here. Often times I want to send record from extension to my backend api. My backend already supports the json serialized format returned by get records api. It would be very helpful if there is a method to convert record object in blocks sdk to that format. Or is there already a way for that?Thanks
I want to sort 9 fields of numbers on a single row and order them into 9 new fields on the same row that show the numbers from lowest to highest. If the old fields are labeled #1-#9 and the new fields are labeled A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I, then I want to search #1-9, find the lowest, and put it in A, then search #1-9 for the next lowest and put it in B and so on.I’m not sure if I need to write an automation with code, a script, or what, but the base features of Airtable do not seem to be able to handle this.
I have two multiple select fields that I am joining into one field. The items are showing in reverse order. is there a way to show them in the order in which they are entered in the multiple select field?
