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.
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, 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’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.
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.
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 have an Automation that updates a Multi-Select field in a different table. When the update occurs it over writes what is currently in that field. Each name has a different color. I want to augment, or add to the existing data in the Multi-Select field not over-write it. Not sure how to approach the problem within Automation. For Example, a field of user names, each name is in a color bubble separated with a space. Initially the field is updated with the name “John”. A second update to the field with the name of “Tom”. The resultI was expecting is : “John Tom”, or “John, Tom” each name in a different color bubble, but what I get is “Tom” and an empty color bubble. Any suggestions.
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.”
Hi useful people, Our Airtable database contains multiple services with attendance data. We also log the individual names of each attendee. Airtable can easily gather the total about of attendees across a period of time - my question is, how does Airtable gather the individual data? For example, Airtable may tell us that there were 1000 attendees across a calendar year, but how many many of those are the same people? What we’re looking for is the amount of individuals who have accessed the service in the calendar year, not a total attendance tally. I hope that makes sense… thank you in advance.
