[Kanban view] Stacking field unavailable

Hi guys,I have an Airtable base with several tables, including one for “persons” and another for "sectors".The "sectors" tables link persones to fields specific to a sector.In the interface, for a specific sector, I had created a Kanban view where the stacking field was set to the ”person” :“Person” stacking field is availableHowever, after changing the interface, I noticed that I could no longer select the "person" field as the stacking field.“Person” stacking field doesn’t appearI have tried to replicate the table from the older version but I can’t manage to make the “Person” stacking field appear again.Could you please help me understand what might be causing this issue? Thank you! Marino

Help with automation that creates nonduplicated record

HI there - I’m about to pull my hair out and have been trying to figure this automation out for several hours now. I have a table called “Field Enrollment” where I am tracking “Producers” with their unique farm #, tract #, and field #. I have a concatenate formula to give me “Farm Key” which is Producer & Farm. I have a second table called “Producer Enrollment” that I want to be auto populated by the Farm Key. However, there are cases like in my example where there are duplicate Farm Keys and I only want the one. (A bit more context: In Field Enrollment we are required to track data related to the unique Farm/Tract/Field. In Producer Enrollment, we are required to track other types of data related to the TOTAL farm, so essentially a roll -up from Field Enrollment.) How do I create the unique record?! Example Field Enrollment table: Example Producer Enrollment table: Here’s the automation I thought would work and is saying is working (but it’s not)

Weird auto-correction issue when validating text in Airtable (only on one computer) - Bug report

Hello everyone, Here is a weird behavior I would like to understand…On one of my computer (and only one), when I validate text in a cell of my text column (when I press enter or change cell after writting something), Airtable sometimes modify some words of the content arbitrarily… Here is a true exemple “remportent” automatically transforms into “représentent” in the next sentence, which often change the meaning of the sentence (and being a journal it’s compromising). Exemple : Les Auvergnats remportent le match contre le LOU.Automatically becomes : Les Auvergnats représentent le match contre le LOU. Here is my text field : I tried the same sentence on another computer and the phenomenom doesn’t happen… It happens that I share my session and credentials with team members and that we use the interface with the same credential at the same time but this happen whether or not I’m alone on the session. Very weird. If someone knows about it or is experiencing the same thing, I would really

Date counting formula weird results

Hi all, I am copying over historical data into a new Airtable system and I am using the following formula for calculating the number of days taken to complete a task IF( OR({Date Completed}, {Date Completed Override}), WORKDAY_DIFF( IF({Start Date Actual Override}, {Start Date Actual Override}, {Start Date Actual}), IF({Date Completed Override}, {Date Completed Override}, {Date Completed}) ), BLANK())It works just as intended, it counts the number of workdays to complete a task, using the default field unless an override date is being used.However, there are one or two results that are just way off. As an example, one record has the following values:Start Date Actual: blankStart Date Actual Override: 1/3/2025Date Completed: blankDate Completed Override: 23/4/2025Completed Task Duration: 474831What is baffling me is that there is another record with exactly the same dates that is correctly returning a value of 15.The default fields are auto generated via a formula, and the ove

How to Choose a Cryptocurrency Exchange: From Scratch or White Label

The rise of cryptocurrency has made owning or operating an exchange an attractive business. However, before launching one, you must decide: Should you build an exchange from scratch, or use a white-label solution? Understanding both options and choosing the right path is critical to your success.Building from ScratchBuilding from scratch involves designing, coding, and deploying your own cryptocurrency exchange platform. You are fully responsible for the backend, frontend, security, liquidity, and compliance infrastructure.Pros: Full control: Customize every feature, interface, and user experience. Proprietary technology: Unique software gives you a competitive edge. Brand authority: Original platforms often earn more trust over time. Cons: High cost: Development can run into hundreds of thousands (even millions) of dollars. Longer time to market: Building from scratch can take 12–24 months or longer. Complex security demands: Handling wallets, KYC, anti-fraud mechanisms, and r

Is it possible to get LIVE market data from multiple crypto exchanges imported to my Airtable?

Is it possible to have live market data from multiple crypto exchanges imported into my Airtable via API? (Binance, KuCoin, Coinbase, etc..)I am trying to create an app that utilizes this data. Unfortunately, I failed to get this done myself.The data I need to have live data for are "Symbol," "Ask Price," "Bid Price," and "Trade Volume."I would appreciate if anyone could provide any guidance.

Selecting Which View to Display when Editing/Adding a Linked Record

Is this possible? I have multiple views which I use, but not all information needs to be displayed when I add a record through a linked record. Right now, it seems whatever view is at the top of the list in a table is the one that shows up when a linked record is used.

Repeating group - error on one script doesn't generate error for automation

I have a script that is using a repeating group to batch process a couple of records sent through output.set() If one of the scripts fails it doesn’t seem to register that error in the overall automation. See image below, individual script failed, overall automation is giving me the green light. I noticed that the script wasn’t behaving correctly on some records but having the script not throw errors is potentially dangerous as problems stay hidden.

referral management

I am looking to create a form that will collect referrals from teachers that will store all the referrals in one place for those responding to these referrals to be able to act on them and then have the outcomes of those actions be shared out automatically preferably via email but I would also like the referral data to be easily sortable into specific students as reports that can be printed and have the ability to attach other files to these referrals. I would l also like to be able to analyze all of the data for trends and patterns as well as look at individual student data for trends and patterns. I have no idea where to begin and if airtable can even do something like this.

Automations To Paste When Base Is Copied

Hey guys,Is there any plans to make it so that when someone copies a base from a public share link, that the automations also get copied across?I create a bunch of systems and templates for people to try and get them in to using Airtable but this is big limitation when it comes to offering these types of solutions as the automations are really a big part of any system.Is this going to be possible at any point or is there a good workaround at all?

URL to record in Interface that works on iPhone

Hi!I’m writing a script that will create a QR code that you can scan to open a record. It works to open in the data view without issue. But I need to have it go to an Interface.If I open an interface on the desktop browser then right click on a record, then click on "copy device URL", that URL will work on the iPhone. I can paste that URL into a note and when I click it, it opens the Airtable app and goes directly to the record in the Interface. Exactly what I want.The catch is, that URL has a bunch of extra base64 encoded stuff. I can’t figure out how to get the elementId , queryContainerId , and savedFilterSetId. Using this partly redacted URL for example:https://airtable.com/appXXXXXXXXXXXXX/pagLAWnn0AqECV5AG?detail=eyJwYWdlSWQiOiJwYWdZdkdwVG1VbXZ4eURpYyIsInJvd0lkIjoicmVjMktQeGpvbHpxc0dkV1QiLCJzaG93Q29tbWVudHMiOmZhbHNlLCJxdWVyeU9yaWdpbkhpbnQiOnsidHlwZSI6InBhZ2VFbGVtZW50IiwiZWxlbWVudElkIjoicGVsRHhZVTlPOFp3T3draTgiLCJxdWVyeUNvbnRhaW5lcklkIjoicGVsM0ltR0tBOVpQRmhqVEoiLCJzYXZlZEZpbHRlclN
