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
Is this base design possible? See image. I need to schedule a variety of sessions categories (29) across a variety of times. Each of the session categories has a varied quantity of allocations. In the photo attached, at the top you can see the session times and the rooms. In each cell is a pull-down list of the allocation type. At the bottom left in the image, you can see the allocation type and the quantity. The table at the bottom sums up the amount of time session allocation abbreviation is entered in the top table and then allows for a horizontal sum calculation.The top table would be very easy to construct. What I’m wondering is if we can make the bottom table a visible entity on the same table? It will be important to see totals as the sessions are allocated.
Hi community I'm stacking with how to put 2 or 3 on the same page in the interface
Hi, my staff are grouped in 3 areas. Central, West and East. Each team has a deputy manager (DMs) and a manager (Ms). It's important that DMs and Ms can not see records of staff that are not in their area. Does airtable allow you to set up granular permissions?Also how can you stop deputy managers seeing the managers or ceo records?Thank you
Hello,I am trying to figure out how to create this base without over complicating it. I have customers who need to request licenses for three different softwares. This needs to be in the same form. They need to specify length and quantity of those softwares. In the from I'm also asking for basic customer information. I've currently set it up so the customer picks the software from a linked table, with conditioning then asking for 'Length' and 'Quantity' for each selected software. https://airtable.com/shrw2mPLjYm203vkk My problem is, that in my base, I'd like separate records for each software picked by the customer, but I'd like it to happen in one form submission, so the customer doesn't have to do it more than once: Customer 1: Software ACustomer 1: Software CCustomer 2: Software BCustomer 2: Software C Is there an automation I can run for this? Or just a smarter way of setting it up?
API for searching in multiple basesHi community, My company developed an API to search multiple databases, we used Airtable for a talent pipeline for the company's recruiting team, and we found ourselves with the limit of 50,000 records (teams plan).Instead of upgrading the plan, we developed this solution. We divide our base by years and create several bases. And with this new program, we can search through all the databases quickly and effectively.I share screenshot In the API, you can search multiple fields (in the example, we search through name and Linkedin link), and then, it shows in which base the API found the specific record (Of course, you can choose which fields you want to display.)What do you think if we commercialize the API? Do you think it is a recurring problem for airtable users?Thanks!Lucas
I am trying to use Airtable and Softr to create a page with fund applications for individuals so that I can track which year a fund was applied for and what its status is (ongoing, granted or rejected). It is important that each fund is presented on individual lines through Softr. If you look at the picture, that is how I want it and managed to do it with Google Sheets and Softer. But I am having problems with Airtable. Does anyone have an idea how I can do it?
Hey EDUser Group! Join us for our next virtual event on June 25 where you’ll learn how @Blessing_Nuga, Director of Data Operations and Administration at Teachers College, Columbia University (TC), uses Airtable to solve complex program tracking challenges. At this event, you'll discover how Airtable has helped TC:Monitor the entire lifecycle of academic degree programs and related compliance activity, from internal and external review processes to internal meetings and memos Implement a flexible audit trail structure that supports robust version control, automatically generating new degree records while meticulously archiving older ones Transform their institutional program tracking and planning into a centralized, efficient, and reliable process Blessing will walk us through the system, highlighting key Airtable functionalities that have been instrumental in their success. If you've been navigating similar workflows and seeking more efficient solutions, this session offers practical
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!!!
Some field types including single selects, multiple selects, linked records, and collaborator fields will show “List” or “Record” instead of the values you may be used to seeing in the Airtable grid view. This is consistent with how the Airtable Web API returns information.
Hi,UMI FUND are looking for some short term support to improve the functionality of our CRM on AT. We’ve set much of it up and been using it for over a year but have some needs to polish the processes and production of analysis so it works better for us. We don’t have a huge number of contacts / records so don’t foresee it taking a long time. Would broadly encompass the following:Review of current use / needs by staff using AT, and those that could (e.g Finance/Ops, Programmes, Leadership etc) Suggestions and implementation of improvements to process, donor journey through AT. Improvement to production of dashboard / analytics (FR reporting, Board reporting, Projections etc) from data input on AT. Recommendations on how UMI could further optimise usage of AT- specifically in relation to donor intelligence gathering, prospecting, and donor stewardship.Pease respond below with availability, rates and time estimate and I’ll get back to you.ThanksTom
Hi there,I am using webhooks to send data from our base to our application endpoint, but we've observed that if our endpoint fails to respond correctly, the webhook is retried many times.While we work on making our endpoint more resilient, the volume of retries can cause issues.Is there any setting, configuration, or recommended best practice from your end that we can use as a workaround to prevent or immediately stop a webhook from retrying upon the first failure?Our goal is to have more direct control over the retry behavior to avoid overloading our systems during an incident.Thank you for your guidance.
Hi all! Did Airtable recently push out an update or changes recently? Many of my users appear to have lost user admin rights with no change on our end to facilitate that.
I have an AI automation step creating an summary and searching the web, but after working fine a few times i suddenly got this error: 'Automation failed: failed to access web page via internet' Does anyone know why this happens? Or what i can do to make sure it doesn’t happen?
