Hi, how can I change my community name? Can't see how to contact Airtable to do this or where to find it in my settings. Thanks!
I did some searching but wanted to be certain since I’m still relatively new to the scripting block. Does anyone know if there is a way to create new views? My use case is that I currently manually create a suite of views each time I add a new client and/or project. For every project I will have an All view that shows everything about it, then an Open view that only shows stuff that’s currently being worked on, an Invoice view that gives me a summary of the tasks that need to be invoiced to make my invoicing faster, etc. Currently I have template views that I duplicate and update the related filters to have it show the right records. I’d love to automate this with the scripting block, but I don’t see a way to create new views from script. Am I missing something? Anyone else have any ideas? Thanks!
Hello!There are a LOT of posts regarding the popular error of "Received Invalid Input" but in my search I didn't find anything that was specific to the conditional logic of the automation being the area that returned the error.I've created a video to show how the conditional logic works when the list properties length = 1, but if it = 0, then the conditional logic check returns the "Received Invalid Input" error. Any help is appreciated.
It would be nice to be able to control the size of long text fields in interface designer. When I'm typing long notes such as "rapport" notes or "project overview notes" in interface designer, it automatically resizes the box according to the length of the note. So as my notes get longer, everything below the Long Text field gets pushed further down the screen. Having a resizing option and a scroll bar inside of the interface designer text box would solve the issue for me.
Hello, I am testing Airtable Api, and I see that no matter in which table the record is, the record get, update and delete methods work normally)Example:I have a record just in "movies" table, but even if I write the id or name of another table "blog" in api url, it still returns the record, you can also update and delete.Get https://api.airtable.com/v0/<app_id>/Movies/recY7Ho4bq4RM94XX/Get https://api.airtable.com/v0/<app_id>/Blog/recY7Ho4bq4RM94XX/They return the same elementIs this how it should work, or it is a bug?
Filing this as a bug here because the message support help bot thing is completely uselessI've noticed for a few months now that if you have a bar chart, turned horizontal, with record values turned on then it doesn't display the largest number, which looks kind of rubbish. See pictureI'm sure this is just a bug in the interface designer, but its been there a whileIn the image - the blue bars at the top should display the value (10 and 11) at the end of the bar, like they do for the other coloured bars
The form builder allows the creation of groups of fields which are separated by a horizontal rule on the form.Is there a way to control visibility of the entire group, including the horizontal rule, rather than controlling visibility of individual fields within the group?Assuming the answer is no, is there a way to disable the extraneous horizontal rule when none of the fields in the group are visible?Thanks!
I feel like what I want to do is very simple, but honestly, I'm wasting a lot of time without succeeding. My level of incompetence is quickly reached.So, I have in my Table 1 a Date field and a field that I'll call field N. In my Table 2, there is also a Date field and a Number field.I want AirTable to find the corresponding Date in Table 2 for each record in Table 1, then return the Number field and enter it in the N field of Table 1.I've been searching for the function, but I can't find it. Does anyone know how to do this?"
I made a massive mistake when doing some updates to a base, so I figured I'd restore a snap shot. I created a snapshot copy of the base, and deleted the original. This has just compounded my issue because all my data syncing to other bases is totally messed up. This also impacts several automations i've created to work around the fact that my company wont shell out for two way sync features. What a headache. It seems to me this wouldn't be an issue if I were able change the source link to my sync set up to the snapshot base, but alas I get the following error.HELP!!!!
Hello, I’ve been trying to work this out for hours but I’m afraid my knowledge of airtable formulas is quite nascent. I’ve got this current formula: IF( {Due}="", “”, IF( AND( DATETIME_DIFF({Due},TODAY(),‘hours’) >= 12, DATETIME_DIFF({Due},TODAY(),‘hours’) <= 48 ), “Due Soon”, IF( IS_BEFORE({Due},TODAY()), “Past Due”, IF( IS_SAME({Due},TODAY()), “Due Today”, “Upcoming” ) ) ) ) Which gives me different values depending on how much time is left in the “Due” column. I’m trying to add another variable that says that if checkbox column “Done” is ticked, disregard all the above formula and return value “Complete”. How can I go about doing this please?
Hello,I have a table containing information about clients: surname, first name, end date, etc., as well as the number of hours sold. In another table, I have the tasks for each customer with the number of hours used.I've created an interface that summarises the job information by customer. At the moment, I need to filter by customer to display all the tasks, but I also want to see the number of hours sold directly in this interface.However, to obtain this information, I need to apply two filters:Filter 1 on the Tasks table to select the customer. Filter 2 on the Customers table to retrieve the hours sold. Is there a solution to avoid having to filter twice?
I have been trying to develop a formula to output the amount of work hours between two date/time fields. This is for a base that has Time Off requests for employees.I have a field with a start date like this (9/16/2024 10:00am) and a field with an end date like this (9/28/2024 3:00pm). What is a formula that would calculate the amount of work hours between those two fields, assuming:Work hours are 8am to 5pmExclude 12pm-1pm if the span crosses that time period, since there should only be 8 hours between 8am and 5pmExclude weekendsIdeally, and I realize this is a tall order, it would exclude New Year’s Day, Independence Day, Memorial Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day for say, the past 5 years and next 5 years.This has been driving me crazy for a long time, and I cannot come up with a reliable solution, even with ChatGPT. Can anyone help?
I'm trying to determine from the API whether a table is hidden or shown, but looking at https://airtable.com/developers/web/api/model/table-model there's no obvious field with that information. Is there another API that has it?
Hi everyone,I'm managing class attendance for a dance school using Airtable. Currently, I have an attendance table where I track which students attended each class on specific dates. Each class has a fixed set of students that remain constant throughout the month, and I need to automatically replicate that list of students across each class date in the month without manually copying and pasting.Example Table Structure:Date Class Student Present05/08/2024Ballet Intermediate Adults - Mon & Wed PMAlex Johnson[ ]05/08/2024Ballet Intermediate Adults - Mon & Wed PMSarah Brown[ ]05/08/2024Ballet Intermediate Adults - Mon & Wed PMMaria Gonzalez[ ]07/08/2024Ballet Intermediate Adults - Mon & Wed PM(Want to replicate all students here)[ ]12/08/2024Ballet Intermediate Adults - Mon & Wed PM(Want to replicate all students here)[ ]14/08/2024Ballet Intermediate Adults - Mon & Wed PM(Want to replicate all students here)[ ]19/08/2024Ballet Intermediate Adults - Mon & Wed PM(
My team and I are really really disappointed that two-way sync is locked behind Enterprise. We've been waiting for that feature since it was announced last October. In the blog post they said "Two-way sync is currently in limited availability for Enterprise customers. It will be available more broadly in early 2023," which, at least to me, implied that it would be available to more than just Enterprise.We have a lot of pretty complicated workflows here, and a few hacky workarounds to make two-way sync happen and it's a massive headache. Two way sync would help us a LOT and it's fking infuriating that it's just, not an option for us. We can't afford the $10,000 a sales rep told us it would cost to use Enterprise, plus we were told there's a minimum of 20 users. I really can't believe they would take such an important feature and just say "small businesses with less than 20 people aren't allowed to have this." In a recent announcment on this v
Up until yesterday, when I changed a filtering option, the table would automatically update. Now it doesn't and I have to hit apply to see the changes.I use filtering a lot to test my data - I look at a summation field and check, for example, what is the result when field X >1? >2? Etc. With the filtering dynamically updating whenever I changed it, I'd get instant feedback. Now it's a real chore, not only do I have to hit apply, but the filter box goes away and I have to reopen it, go to my filter choice, and enter my next value to test. Am I missing something? Is this an intentional update? Thanks!
I have created a record review interface to review projects, projects tasks, and click into the task to mark it complete. In my interface it shows my list of projects on the left hand column, with the selected project data in the main section. Within this project there are assigned tasks which display on the interface. I need to be able to display these sorted by order. I am not seeing the functionality to do this. Is there a way to have the "project" "tasks" display on the interface based on their "order" assigned to them? The tasks are setup in a "tasks template" base. So that when I create a new "project" matching a "type" of project, an automation runs and it pulls all the tasks associated with the project. Because these are pulled via an automation, they are called at random and not sorted in any particular order. I was thinking I could break down the create tasks step into multiple steps filtered to only call "order" = 1, "order" = 2, "order" = 3, etc... but
Created a simple form to submit a work order for repair services. User selects services needed from multi-select field. What is the best way to extract the services and create a line item for each service selected so that I can auto populate an estimate in quickbooks?I was thinking about creating a new table called "billable items" and have a script run when the form is submitted to create a line item for each invoice while still including the customer information submitted on the form in each line item. Example Form SubmittedAirtable record createdscript runs creating 1 record per service requested in a separate tableeach line sent to QB for estimate creation Will this work? Im not sure the simple zap will be able to dynamically adjust to different amount of line items. One work around for this was thinking I could have a new "view" auto created for the billable line items that need to go on one invoice. I thought I could have the view named dynamically with
I created an interface with two pages, and one is not showing the information to the viewers. They are getting an error that says "Cannot access this data."Other details...There are two pages in the interface --- one is a list, and one is a record detail page that only allows them to see their own record.They are all able to see their own record, but the list won't show up. The "Users can see" is set to "Specific records" and has one condition on it (status field = active).When I preview the page as the viewers, I'm able to see everything.What am I missing?

HiI'm using the Resource Allocation template that Airtable created as a guide for my own version of a team resources tracker. Problem is, our jobs have many different levels of effort required depending on what's being requested. I think I have it set up in a decent way to allow for that, but in testing, it's looking like it's too cumbersome to have someone fill in the estimated amount of time required EVERY single time the job comes in, especially for revisions. For example:Initial layout of the job may take 8 hours. When that same job comes back in for revisions (which can be numerous times) each time the amount of effort required will vary. Could be a quick fix, 15 minutes. Could be a partial re-do, 3 hours. Any suggestions on how to best automate populating the time required field, for each time revisions come in? The goal is to have an accurate view of each designer's workload. If I set up general ranges for various tasks, or try to train AI to guess (if that'
Hey All.I have an interface setup and there are fields that I only want visible by certain users. There's a collab field with certain members assigned to the records. I thought this would limit the field based on just those collabs, however everyone can still see it, including me. The idea is for example, fields with Ed's name visibility is filtered by Ed, and Julie. They are the only ones that should see it. Any ideas?
Hi all! I have a two-way sync enabled between two bases. On the source base I have enabled edits from the target base, and I am able to add individual records on the target base and have these show up on the source base. However, the Import CSV extension shows an error that says I cannot create new records in the target base.I am 100% sure it's not a settings problem in the sync because I am able to add individual new records on the target base. Can anyone advise? Is this just a bug on the extension?Thanks in advace!Alex
I manage an instance of SF at a company of 50+ employees. I would like to build an airtable base that generally mirrors it, but is better, and then establish a sync between the base I build and Salesforce. Has anyone done anything like this? Was the documentation helpful enough for me to rely on it to do a project like this?
Hi, I coud use some help on what I think is a relatively simple few concepts.I have a base called "Sales Pipeline" where I am tracking:Deal Name (Acme, Inc)Pipeline Stage (intro, qualified, opportunity etc)Opportunity Status (active, lost, won)Let's say there are 100 total records, each with a Deal Name, a Pipeline Stage and an Opp StatusI'd like to be able to: Calculate the Intro to Qualified conversion % (so if we've had 100 records at the "Intro Stage" and 62 have converted to the "Qualified" stage, then we should show a 62% conversion)Same for Qualified to Opportunity etcSimilarly, I want to be able reflect the Opportunity Status conversion % as well. So for example, if we have 100 records that entered the funnel at the "Intro" Stage, and 62 converted to "Qualified" but since then 32 of those have an Opportunity Status of "Lost", we'd really only want to reflect an Intro > Qualified (Active) conversion of 30%. I suspect I can do this using a 1) separate base, that 2) i
