Copy and paste statuses across list view records

Hi! I might just be silly, but is there not a way to copy and paste a status across several records in list view? In grid view it’s easy, just copy a cell and paste. Is there not an easy and quick way to do this in list view?

Lookup field in end-user interface?

Hi All – I have a large base which essentially functions as a CRM. The first field in the base is “partner name” and the subsequent fields are information about the partner - location, bio, Linkedin profile, etc. We use the base to track engagement and other touchpoints with the partners. I want to build an end-user interface while allows my executive director to input the name of an individual from the base and then have it return a few specified fields. For example, the ED has an end-user interface and is instructed to input a partner name. After inputting the name, the interface returns Linkedin profile, bio, and last-emailed (all fields that we collect and keep up-to-date). I know it’s possible to just make my ED an editor and give access to the entire base but we have 50+ fields and I want an more user-friendly experience. Privacy is not the concern here, rather my ED doesn’t need to see all the fields and details in the base. Is this kind of build possible with an interfa

Built a tool that archives Airtable bases into ZIPs locally (no data leaves browser)

I ran into Airtable’s row limits and pricing walls, so I built a free browser-based tool that lets you export full bases — including tables, links, and attachments — into a clean ZIP file.No data ever leaves your browser.No account required.You can try it here if you're curious: https://ar.konanx.comWould love any feedback or ideas for what to add next — especially if you’ve had similar Airtable pains.

What happened to the Pretty Print link? It no longer works, but there are so many references to it for formulas.

Calendar updated via form

I am on the free plan. A few Co-workers can add an event to the calendar by submitting a shared form. The Airtable calendar is then updated. That works well. But say they need to delete an event. How can that be done using the same form, or do I need to make a new shared form?

Sending a single email for multiple records that fit conditions

We have a variety of projects and ask teams to log their cumulative monthly hours worked for each project. We have an "Hours" table where each row is associated with a project, a month, and a year. Then the team goes into the table to enter # of hours worked for each project. I have the table grouped by month. For example, the grouped field for January 2023 group has a list of 8 projects:TeamMonthYearProject# Hours WorkedOperationsJanuary2023Project A OperationsJanuary2023Project B OperationsJanuary2023Project C OperationsJanuary2023Project D OperationsJanuary2023Project E OperationsJanuary2023Project F OperationsJanuary2023Project G Teams are asked to enter their hours by the first Monday of each month. I want to create an automation that sends an email to teams that haven't entered in their hours yet. However, I do not want it to send a separate email for every single record that is empty - I want it to be one email that says the team has

Wrapping Text in field / cell

Is there a way to wrap the text in a filed name?

Mobile Interface Delete Confirmation

I notice that while i have a confirmation enabled on the computer for the delete button on an expanded record in the interface, I do not have to confirm to delete from mobile which has been risky for my team as we use our mobile devices frequently in the field and its easy to accidentally hit that big red button. There is also no way to undo on mobile if you miss the brief "undo" float message. Am I missing something? It would also be nice to have a delete confirmation feature when add/delete records in line is enabled for calendar, list, kanban views, etc. on an interface. I want my team to be able to click the calendar to easily add tasks to a certain date without filling out a form for each but I don't want them to accidentally delete records either.

Link to interface page with specific filter - understanding airtable's filter parameter values

I am trying to set up specific filters after a user clicks a button to visit an interface page. It seems that there is no native way to do this given the options airtable gives you,. It also seems like there is no way to add url parameters to an http address but I thought it might be possible to just do this using url parameters and a http page.Maybe there is a way to do this with a script? I’d have to figure out what the parameter values for the filter are, and then also have some way to redirect to a new page which might not be possible in the airtable scripting environment.

Need to automate sending an email identifying a unique record

I’m trying to identify where a record has an expiration date and send an email identifying that record.I can automate an email that recognizes the expired date but can’t find a way to attach/send the identity of that record. I have a log (record from a table) and the entries have a field “expiration date”. My automation finds that record and sends an email that a record has expired. I need a way for it to not only do that but identify what record that expired (separate field). Is there a way to do that?

Where is Airtable Sales?

I received some interesting info about the new portals feature and have filled out the stupid sales form (because I have an enterprise account) but no one seems to want to help me. Sad that I’m having to go these lengths given that I THINK the feature might actually be valuable enough for me to waste my time trying to track down a person. Hoping some will route this to someone. Thanks.

Receving error 302 'Moved Temporarily' when using fetch method on apps script

I'm trying to use a web app deployed via Google Apps Script inside Airtable Extensions and Automations by selecting "Run a script." However, I'm encountering the following error:Response status was 302 'Moved Temporarily' but redirect mode was set to 'error'Despite this error, the action triggered by the request is actually executed successfully.I tested the same request using Thunderclient and did not encounter the error — everything worked as expected.Searching the community, I found a workaround suggesting the creation of a webhook to handle the requests. I implemented this through Zapier, and using the webhook, the requests now run successfully within Airtable (both in Extensions and Automations).However, this setup isn't ideal for me because it adds an unnecessary (and paid) middle step just to retrieve a simple success response from my Apps Script API.My questions: Is there a way to configure Airtable to prevent or handle this 302 error directly? Or, is there a better solution

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.

Other Questions

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.
