Hello - I'm trying to create a table with my KPIs that combines 'campaigns' and 'clients' into a monthly view that sums up the total of all the campaign KPIs for that month separated by clients.I've recorded a Loom that hopefully gives the needed context: https://www.loom.com/share/dcfb0a9283fe471d82f5ea3881422cb1?sid=08af2930-5cfd-45f3-b89f-07aacb52ba07

Dear Community,I hope someone can help me with the following issue...I have an automation sending out an email for a record ("shipment" table) with attachments. The attachment(s) come by lookup from my "inventory" table. Now, as some inventory items may have the same attachment (eg. an invoice covering several inventory items/lines) I consequently get several same attachments pulled to the "shipment". How can I tell airtable or my automation to ignore files with same filename when sending out email for a record ("shipment" table) with attachments. It's hard to explain, but I hope someone will see my issue. 🙂 Kai 

Would it be possible to activate an automation in Airtable (send a form), with a trigger in Figma?Every time someone gets tagged in Figma, the form should be send to the tagged person. 

I want to create a "sheet" timetable that creates new dates using a formula based on one date that is inputted. I know there's probably a better way to say that so please disregard my ignorance. Here's what I want to happen...I input the "Class Start" date and all other dates are created using formulas. Here is our current sheet.Is this possible in airtable? I imagine there is a work around.

Afternoon, all,I have an automation which fills in a select field based on a linked field's id.If the item doesn't exist in the select field already, it automatically creates a new item in the field.However, every time the new item is created by the automation it's blue. Every new item is always blue.Is this a bug? When we add them manually (which we don't want to do - hence why we automated it) they are colourised.Here is the field,Any clues, or help much appreciated. Thank you.Best, DanC 

Hi everyone,I'm sure you've all heard about Air.AI or have seen a video discussing it.I'm currently attempting to work with Air.AI, but I've hit a roadblock, where I have to interact with my agent. Whenever I try to communicate with my agent, the webpage prompts me to upgrade my Twilio account from the free trial. Air's tech support mentioned that I can use any plan other than the free trial. However, my budget is extremely limited, around $100 per month, and I'm not familiar with Twilio's pricing. Which Twilio plan would be the most affordable while still being usable for Air.AI cold calling? Ideally, I'd like to allocate $1 per day for Air.AI, which totals to $30 per month.Which Twilio plan would you recommend that fits within my budget?I'm a complete beginner, and I greatly appreciate anyone who takes the time to assist me. I'm genuinely striving to improve my circumstances and find hope in this endeavor.Thank you.

Hey community, I'd like to export all my airtable data (including files) which turns out to be trickier than (at least) I hoped: I understand that there is a CSV export function. The main issue for me here is that the file(s) are stored via the expiry link which makes it... not really (re)useable.Therefore, is there a way to either transform the expiry link into a permanent link or be able to download the complete data?By complete data I also mean keeping the relations: I noticed that there is a way through zapier to export all the data (as files) but they would then have to be linked to the record manually again (from my understanding). Any input is highly appreciated!Thanks, Michael

why does a 'day date' formula, based on a 'start time' return a day as the day before, when the start time is before 8am? Here is my formula column which is based on my start day/time fieldDATETIME_FORMAT(Start,"D-ddd") 

What is the exact way to delete multiple records on a table of Airtable with Make.com ?Thanks,

We keep our org chart in Airtable. It includes who Person A reports (as a link to another record) to as well as their contact info and photo.The automation I'm trying to set up would remove the manager that Person A reports to when the manager leaves our organization. We have a status that is "No longer employed", so I'd like the automation to be triggered by that and then remove the manager from any employees they're assigned to.I can get to a certain point, but I keep setting it up in a way that would just update the manager record rather than the folks they manage.TIA for the help!

hi there!A newcomer to Airtable and really excited to explore and see how I can build a robust system for my use cases. I manage a construction company and am trying to build a robust PM interface to handle the various activities that happen during pre-construction, in-construction and post-construction. There's a lot there but one important aspect is the idea of automating a status report to share with the top management.Currently I build this manually in email and share with the team. This includes a genera summary of activities during the week, any red items (tasks that have been delayed) and then a list of open items and their last activity.Assuming all these items are logged in a table with their activity logs in comments (unless there's a better way), is there some way to automate this report to be generated and emailed end of each week?Thanks very much for your help and advice!

Hi all,I have formulated columns Apple, Orange, Banana, and the formula produces "Y" or "N" values. I want to create another column that will return the name of the column if their value is "Y". Is there any way to do this?I have tried nested IF formula, like IF(Apple="Y", "Apple", Orange="Y", "Orange"...), but the problem is they just return one value, but I want all the columns as long as their value is "Y".Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone I am trying to create a hash of a record using md5. I am fairly new to script but I am willing to learn. does anyone have an idea of how to do that? Thank you

Does anyone have an issue with emails being rejected from an airtable automation? There was a migration from a different hosting service we used our mail servers on I have disconnected and cleared the cache and reconnected the account but the same issue is happening as the email was the same but the hosting changed I am not getting this issue it seems like from other 3rd parties I was using. This was not doing this before there was no issues sending emails from outlook in connection in airtable so I have no idea what is happening   

Creating a CRM and I was hoping to create a master interface to act as a management dashboard and draw from multiple different bases. Is this possible? or does all the information have to be in one base under different tables?

Hi. I am creating a version of an automation that I didn't create. I have duplicated it, added a trigger and updated some copy in the code but I have a configuration error. I can't figure out how to get the custom script into the message. Screen grab one is the error. Screen grab two is how it should look.Any help is appreciated.Deb

Hey AirTable Community! I am having trouble with Automations. I have my trigger (When a new record is created). When selecting my Action (send an email), I select all the fields I want to display on the email, but when I test it, it’s only pulling certain values, but most of them are left blank, even though the cell has actual information on it (linked from another record & tab) Any solutions to solve this? Thanks!

the one thing that is missing for me from Airtable which I thought the new Interface designer and feature will solve, is that it will actually save the exact state of my table when I’m sharing… for example: I have a table grouped by a column that has 7 values, and I’d like the table to start with all of them collapsed for viewers, so that they can see a summary of the key value. 2nd, the width of each column. I figured that if I change a column’s width while in edit mode, it should stay that width when viewers see the table… and currently it does not. with these 2 things not supported, I don’t see much value in this whole feature… are there any plans to add this?

Hi, I’m getting an error when I try to use create a Javascript FormData object in preparation for posting to an API. I would have thought FormData would have been well supported. console.log(`Hello, ${base.name}!`); const endPoint = new URL('https://myserver.com/jsonAPI/'); const formData = new FormData(); formData.append("user", 'tom'); const response = await fetch(endPoint.toString(), { method: "POST", body: formData, }); console.log(response) Getting an error saying that FormData is not defined

Hi there I’m not even sure I’m asking the right question here because I know nothing about coding and I’m aware I’m going to need a script here. I have a table with data in it that I want to use to populate a Contract Proforma in Google Docs that I’ve created through Integromat. I’ve managed to get it working through the Created Trigger that comes automatically in Integromat but I’d now like to be able to make it happen by clicking a button in the Record in Airtable. I think this is done via Webhooks. I’ve generated the Webhook in Integromat but I don’t know the code to use to get the correct data sent across. Thanks in advance

I am currently using the Team plan for my workspace, and I have a few questions regarding the pricing structure and seat allocations.1. Regarding Editors:If I share the workspace with two people as editors, would there be an additional cost incurred? If so, could you please clarify how much the additional charge would be?2. Regarding Readers:Similarly, if I share the workspace with two people as readers, would there be an additional cost? Kindly provide details on how this might affect the pricing.3. Sharing Workspace Databases:Suppose I share four workspace databases with three people. One person receives access to two databases while the other two individuals each get access to one database, and all are set as editors. Would there be a change in the pricing structure due to this arrangement? If so, could you provide information on th

Hi guys, I'm new to web development and i'm trying to use a serverless function to fetch data from airtable. The fetch function works fine before, but this morning when I check my application it shows `isAxiosError.js:10GET http://localhost:8888/api/products 500 (Internal Server Error).`I used API Key before for the authentication but I have already changed the API key to personal token. However, it still not working for my project. Can anyone help me to solve this problem? Thanks in advance.
