Trying to build an automation where an email is sent when a record enters a view (specified by a month status). The record contains a previously uplodaded file (pdf). Up to that point I’m able to make the email automation work, but when trying to add a last “update record” step (so that the record is updated after the email has been sent out, by having its status changed/updated) I get an error. Seems as if Airtable wont be capable of updating the record “status field” because the record contains an attachment. Trying to work a solution that will allow me to keep using the product. I have a paid version.
hi, does anyone know how to copy a group of records. It's for selecting materials for our manufacturing business. If we have standard jobs we don't want to have to select the same group of items (records) repeatedly
I don’t want to be overly negative as I love Airtable, as do my clients. But can Airtable slow down in integrating new features without proper testing. In the past couple of weeks since developers integrated Interface/data layout into one in the home view, there have been so many bugs in the system. I am all for new integrating and love the direction the company is going. However, don’t be premature about it. Every time I am using Airtable now there are new bugs and I don’t have time to send Airtable developers feedback and examples... It’s hard to keep up (more a clients perspective) with new features, new layouts and new bugs. To the developers, just make sure your ready before publishing new layouts and features please 🙏
I tried posting this question previously but I don't see it posted, so apologies if it appears twice.I have a simple database with two tables, each of which has a few fields.I want to create an interface that shows different list views of one table based on different filter criteria chosen through tabs.I created an interface with eight tabs on one page and was able to configure the filter criteria for each tab. It works fine in the edit mode.When I preview or publish it, only five of the tabs are visible. I thought that it might be there's a limit on the number of tabs on any page, or the length of their names, however when I tried rearranging or renaming the tabs to shorten names the behavior was the same. Only the five originally visible tabs appear, whatever I name them and in whatever order I arrange them. The other three tabs are never visible.I then tried copying the page to another page in the same interface, so that I could experiment further without deleting my original work a
Anyone know if/how to change the default behavior of clicking Interfaces when in Data Mode. It defaults to design mode so I need to click Interfaces and then click Open. I could have sworn it took me straight to interfaces prior to the most recent UI changes.
Hey everyone! I’m new to this platform and just getting started with Airtable. Looking forward to learning from you all and improving my workflow. Any tips for beginners are most welcome! 😊
Hey FolksCurious what techniques people are using to get data out of their agent fields. It’s easy to send data to Agents from fields, but as far as I understand it, Agents can’t currently return this data back out to other fields. So, let’s say I have an Agent extract the ‘date’ from a document, that data stays in the field output, and cannot be sent (using the UX) to a date field. I’m not seeing any documentation about this.My first thought would be to have the Agent output a JSON object, then use a formula in another field to get (e.g. REGEX_EXTRACT()) the data from the object.Anyone else exploring this solution?
Hey folks, I’m trying to figure something out.I’ve got an old CSV doc that I’ve integrated. Unfortunately, it’s a mess and I’m only a “enough to get by” kind of Airtable coder. I’m a bit stumped.So, I’m trying to make a formula that combines multiple cells to make a condensed long text field for mailing addresses (if possible). Unfortunately, many of these individual cells are empty and there are 562 lines of them. There’s no good rhyme or reason as to what is empty, either. Sometimes it’s address 1 and address 2, sometimes there’s a city and state and nothing else, sometimes all of the information is filled out, so making a straight hierarchal system like I’m more used to seeing doesn’t really work.Example:IF(address 1, <all the info>, (IF(address 2, <address 2 down>, (IF(address 3, <address 3 down>,)))Here’s my best effort at what I want to do:Any advice? Thanks in advance!
Hi, I’m building a page to track hours — comparing what we’ve budgeted versus the actual hours spent. We’re tracking time in Harvest, and at the moment I’m manually entering that data to match it up, which means there’s no direct link between the two systems. We use the same standard phases for every project (example: B01-B09). Each time a client signs a fee proposal, I want to add these same phases to the new project and allocate the initial budgeted hours. In Excel, I’d simply copy and paste multiple rows, but in this system I can’t duplicate more than one row at a time, which is slowing things down.Ideally, I’d like to be able to duplicate all phases (B01-B09) and assign them to a new project in one go, then input the hours. I also update the actual hours weekly, so it needs to be easy to maintain. I’ve been exploring whether an interface with a button (plus an automation) could do this — so that with one click it would add all the phases for me — but I’m a bit stuck on how to set t
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
Hi Airtable Team,Last week, I received an invoice on the personal plan associated with my MVP plan. It seems that my plan was adjusted to a Team Plan, Monthly on June 25 and I was charged for the remainder of that month + the upcoming month. I haven’t seen any updates in this community that the free team plan with AI was being removed, so I wanted to confirm that was a mistake. Workspace ID is wspRhbYK4IzKW729u.
Hello everyone! For export and invoice purposes, I think it would be nice to be able to inherit the filter from an interface to a detail page or at least within the detail page to the buttons (for exporting).Right now when Month Link is set on a specific month, the visible list is changed but the button in the same frame ignores it! Would be so great if it would recognise a filter or the dropdown elements!Does someone has a workaround? I want to make it as easy as possible for the back-office to export a month of choice. Thanks in advance! This is what the detail page looks like:
In one of my first projects, I have a table with a multiselect field "names".Can I add a new column with some formula that shows the name that was last added or removed in the "names"-field ? (with automatic update for every change in that names-field)
Can anyone tell me if there’s a way to perform web scrapping on Airtable and fetch changes related to the tickets? For example, I change the status of my ticket to In-Progress from To-Do, I need a custom scraper method that would parse the data and store it into my database. I am using Node.js and puppeteer.

Something as simple as retrieving data from previous record and then mathematically operating this field (even within boundaries of cell) seems to take hours. If finding information or operating this platform is so difficult then whats the value.
