spreadsheets Hi, I’m trying to recreate the structure of the attached spreadsheet in Airtable, but I'm running into trouble because each checklist item needs a different field type. I'm a PM, and I'm building a checklist that I want to go through once per project. Each checklist item requires a different field type. After discussing with ChatGPT, I was told that if there are 10 field types, I should create 10 separate fields and input each item only into its corresponding field type. But this checklist isn't just for me — about 20 team members will need to fill it out frequently. If it's structured this way, it becomes very inconvenient for everyone to use. What would be the best way to structure this kind of checklist in Airtable?
Hello all:I have a table that stores our department's class offerings schedule. The important fields are:Lecturer's name Course number Day of the week (Multiple select - as there can be multiple days the class is offered) Start time of the class (the date does not really matter here; We only care about a typical week) Duration of class (in minutes) - helps to compute the end time of the sessions. I would like to generate a view that shows us the Weekly Schedule that is “date Agnostic” for an entire semester. The columns will be the weekdays, and the rows will be the time frames of each day (running from 7am to 9pm). I would like the classes to be filled into a “calendar-like” view based on their time and day of offering. This will aggregate across all classes, and i would also like to apply filters to it. We achieved it in Tableau, but it would be nice to have it in Airtable, where all our data are typically stored. Thanks for your help.
Hello all, Basically I have a form to link working units and owners: For some reason the “+” button on the Owner side is displaying “Add unit” and I can’t figure out how to change it to something more accurate (Add robot). Do I need to rebuild the table and change the name of how I will call each record? Secondly, I just noticed (probably I did it in the past but I forgot to follow it up) that the visibility of the fields is limited once I applied a filterIn other words, with this setup… As soon as I enter parameters on the “filter”, I see “0 visible fields” on the fields option. That limits the visibility to end user when is trying to attach/link an option after clicking in the button, no idea if there is a workaround to avoid this behavior.The filter contains a couple of rules to limit the options displayed based on the “current’s user email” which is strictly needed. As an example, in the opposite side… if I remove the filters... It seems to be by design, but, any alternative aroun
Hello! I realize this might sound confusing! Select item in one field, have it filter the second field based on that selection so I can choose from a filtered selection, and then auto-populate the third field based on the second selection I make. Here is a quick Loom so you can see what I mean! Loom Loom | Send a video. Not a thousand words. Get your message across with instantly shareable videos for work. Capture your screen, record your front-facing camera, and narrate it all at once, then instantly share with a simple link. I have a column with OEM Make, those OEM Makes have specific packages but those packages all include different things, but some OEMs have the same package names even though they include different things. I want them to be able to choose the OEM from the OEM field, then the package field with the packages they can choose from only has the packages that match that OEM. Then the 3rd field is auto-populated with
The back end of one of our products is built on Airtable. Its been runing fine, but in the last couple of months (since May 18th) it hasn't been working anymore. Unfortunately we didn't discover this until now, and this means a key product in our whole business is broken/down.Did airtable change its scripting system to change how attachment fields work? The images being attached work, the script appears to successfully run, logs are totally okay, just the images don't get attached at the end.More info:We wrote an airtable script that, based on data, attaches a photo to the airtable. The script stopped working recently. It gets triggered, appears to run, logs look fine, but images aren't attached. It was working before, but stopped working around may. What do you think the issue is?We’ve emailed Airtable support but haven’t heard back yet :( let table = base.getTable('Raw Data');let inputConfig = input.config();let recordNumber = inputConfig.RecordNumberAutomation; // Replace with actua
I’m very new to Airtable, here’s what I’m trying to achieve. I have a table named Inventory: Name, Category, Price.A table named Project: Address, inspection date, images, Reno Estimate. Ideal process: From the Project I want to select items (30-50 items) (ideally a multiplier field. eg: 1x, 2x etc) from the Inventory list. (Or even just a checkbox) So for the Project I’ve selected what Inventory items I’ll need and the total of their cost.Hope that makes sense.
I have a main table with records, and linked tables with linked records, they are readable using an interface. I want to enable independend Airtable users to select specific records from those tables, to export or print that selection. They need to be able to do this independently, so one user should be able to select records without those records also being selected for another user.
Hello! I’m trying to create an automation that allows me to add someone to a collaborator field without replacing any data that is already in the field. Is this possible? That is, if 3 people are already in the collaborator field and I want to add a fourth via an automation, can the fourth be added without removing the other 3 that are already in the field?
Hello! Recently took over Airtable and am getting familiar with it. I set up an easy lookup between linked tables, but am having difficulty with a little more complex scenario. I have two tables that are linked, let’s call them ‘Operations’ and ‘Account Management’.Each table has fields that are: Partner, Territory and Business Line.I’m trying to set up a lookup in the Operations Table, where if all three of the values match in the linked tables (match on Partner, Territory & Business Line) - then return the value in the ‘Account Manager’ field which is stored in the Account Management table. Assuming this is possible, any ideas on the easiest way?
I have a single select field with options A, B, C. How can I limit a user’s ability to select an option twice? Once an option is selected they should not be able to select the same option again.
Hi All, Our team is having trouble with the cells running into the other pages when printed. This doesn’t affect everyone, just some people which makes me think it might be a setting issues. Any thoughts?“So the problem of the grid lines not closing between pages is still there, but it looks less messy than having long columns of text and pics in the body of the report. I tried using the Page Designer Extension or an outside program as suggested by others, but they require you to basically restart the whole template.”
