I have a single select field in an interface that allows users to enter new values if what they need isn’t already on the list. This will grow over time and it would be a lot more useful if it was in alphabetical order, but I don’t want to have to go into the field properties every day and click the alphabetize button. Is there any way to automate this?
Hey everyone, Tim here. I'm in compliance and risk at Onsecc, which usually means Airtable bases full of audits, evidence, and reminders to breathe 😅But today I’m not here to talk about ISO, HIPAA, or any of that alphabet soup.I wanna know:👉 What's the weirdest or most unexpected thing you’ve ever built or tracked in Airtable?Vacation plans? Crypto portfolios? Fantasy football? Cat feeding schedules?I’ll start: We once prototyped a “compliance fail bingo board” for internal training. Totally useless. Hilarious.Let’s make this thread fun. Bonus points if your base made your life easier (or got you into trouble 😬)
It would be great if we could, in my case, get the elements smaller than what’s possible today. Eg, the “number” element: I can only get 4 in a row and it takes to much space in their smallest form. Being able to use the full width of the page (like eg you can do with a “gridd” element) and being able to get it smaller, would maybe result in a row of 10 (?) “number” elements. User case: displaying an interface on a tv screen in clients workplace.
In my interface I can provide a Pie chart that will show the % of yes and no responses to a survey question.Each response, yes or no, is tied to a month value. I want to see the % over time of the people that reported yes to display a trend chart month over month. Example in Jan 42% reported Yes, in Feb 100% reported yes. This would be similar to my average satisfaction score month over month. How do I take the Yes/No answers and convert them into a % of the population in order to track month over month?
Hey Airtable Community! We're excited to announce an upcoming change that will streamline your experience within our vibrant community. Effective June 2nd, the Airtable Community will exclusively support login via Single Sign-On (SSO). This means the option to log in with a separate username and password will no longer be available after this date. What does this mean for you?This transition to SSO will provide a more unified login process. We believe this change will ultimately benefit everyone in the community. How do you swap over to SSO?The good news is that for most of you, the switch will be completely seamless! If the email address you currently use for your Airtable Community profile matches the email address associated with the SSO login you use to access Airtable, you won't need to do anything special. Simply log in via the SSO option, and you'll be automatically connected to your existing community profile. What if I'm not currently using SSO for my Airtable account?No worri
Hi!I used to embed a regular gallery view in my WordPress web site but I did not like how the title of each card (primary field) where always cut off. I tried creating an interface design of the same gallery, embed it, and I really liked the result. Titles were visualized in its complete form and the whole thing looked better and cleaner.The thing is that for some reason, the mobile version of the embed gallery interface came out grayed with a message saying "viewport too small to display the gallery element". I checked out the embed code and it was basically the same for both for the regular gallery view and the gallery interface. Nontheless, the regular gallery view showed in the mobile version of the website and the gallery interface not. If anyone has an idea or suggestion on what is causing this and how to solve it I'd appreaciate it.

Hi,Hi, I’m new here and need help setting up a basic leave tracker for a small organization of up to 20 people. I want to automate notifications and maintain the leave database efficiently.Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
I'm setting up an automation, which takes fields from a google forms response sheet and adds them to airtable as single select fields. So far I have the form and the airtable with the single select fields. The issue: afaik when setting up the automated import (new line in form response sheet --> new record in AT), I have to click into each field I want to import and match it with the right column in the response sheet. Is there any way to automate this?

Hi, I’m part of a small growing business. We are looking for inventory database options as we begin to expand. I was curious if any other food-related businesses use Airtable for their inventory tracking? If so, how’s it going? Do you believe Airtable will be a good option as your company expands and grows?
I can't move left or right within the rows using the keyboard arrow keys in the "interface". I've been experiencing this issue since yesterday. Also, I'm unable to copy the data within the rows using Ctrl+C.
Hi Everyone! I have an automation that is set to find records in a certain view and send them an email. I know when in testing Airtable will only show the first 10 records, but it is also completing the automation for the first 10 records as well and right now that view has about 18 records in it. Any advice on whats going on with it?
Hi there, I’m just wondering if anyone has tested the new Sandbox beta yet? This looks like something that would be really beneficial to us, but having never used anything like it I’m interested to hear other people’s experiences before enabling it. An example of something I’m not sure about is that I will sometimes have to make bulk changes to data when making field changes (eg splitting or consolidating fields), which may still be getting edited in Production while I’m making the changes in Sandbox. Does Airtable do anything to manage this? Looking forward to hearing your experiences. Thanks,Josh
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 welcome some quick feedback on my Base / Tables set up. I have multiple projects I manage and after 2 months of using AT I’m increasingly concerned I’m digging a hole based on a flawed setup. Is there a resource for me to get 10-15 minutes of evaluation / input?
