Is there a way to create a link to a form with pre-filled information? For example, I want a button in an interface that can go to a form to add a bug linked to whatever the user was looking at in the interface, so that the link is already set when opening the form.

Hello.  I'm not a developer but I managed to create a button that when clicked sent a webhook to Make to run a scenario.That process has now broken because of the whole API thing (which I don't understand).  Can anyone tell me how I make the button send the web hook now?  I've created a Personal Access Token but I don't know what to do with it and I'm not even sure that's the right solution.Thanks in advance

Hello,My subject might not be entirely accurate. Bangin my head against a wall for a few days now.  I haven't been able to find the solution to my problem here, and I feel like there really must be one.  I'm trying to come up with a way to quickly calculate what individual contractors should be paid for events, and display as a grid or list or interface that is easy for the person entering "payment requests" to read. This is currently done by coping over the information into an excel spreadsheet to do the calculations and then reentered into a payment request spreadsheet...but I already have all the information here in airtableI have a table of "events", and table of "sessions" (an event might be made up of 1 or more sessions/ days) and a table of "contractors". I assign contractors to "sessions" through linked records. A contractor may work 1, 2, or all "sessions" of an "event". The sessions have a set number of hours assigned t

Hello!We need help with a script or automation that duplicates an invoice/record from an interface view and opens it in a new window to be edited.We have an "Invoices 2024 Table" that is linked to our "Projects" table and "Invoice Lines 2024" table.Our interface for the Invoices looks like this.I've been able to get some scripts from ChatGPT to duplicate the record and open it in a new window that pass the coding tests, but when I click the button on the interface, nothing happens.Thanks in advance for your help!

I am building out a job board on webflow, and I had a workflow where a user would fill out a form to submit a new job, form data would go to Airtable, then from Airtable back to the Webflow CMS. Does this make any sense? (Using Zapier). Or should I just move the data from the Webflow form directly to the Webflow CMS? Thoughts?

Hi there! I’m trying to use the IF and DATEADD formulas to calculate a Project Start Date based on whether or not a Launch Date is entered for a record. If there is no Launch Date entered, the record field should be left blank. Here is the formula: IF({LAUNCH DATE} = BLANK(), “”, DATEADD({LAUNCH DATE}, -16,‘week’)) What I am getting is a date string (2021-10-18T00:00:00.000Z) instead of the Friendly Date format. Help please! :slightly_smiling_face:

When configuring SSO using Okta, I will also configure Provisioning with SCIM. Can someone help me with a few questions on this subject?Using Okta SCIM provisioning:- how do I ensure all new users created in Airtable have a default "Viewer" permission?- how do I ensure all new users created in Airtable are assigned to a specific workspace? And that they cannot access other workspaces unless granted.

Hello, I want to have a merged table consisting of entries I manually created plus entries with the same data structure that i fetch from an external data source via API.The external source could be updated in the future and ideally I'd want the records in the table to update as well. Is that possible? Help is greatly appreciated 🙂

Hi everyone, I'm really bad with the formula field!I'm trying to create a formula that prints "OK" if each user that I added has an active status; if some users have inactive status, print "not everyone," and if nobody has an active status, print "nobody." My problem is that the formula is based on info from another table, but I need it on that table.Those are my examples of base: I'm trying to add this formula field to the Report Table. Can someone help me? thank you!  

How can I add just one button on a table and that button be able to include an automation?I have an automation and I need to add this automation in a table with a button. Just one button that works for all records in the table, not one button for each record which is what you can normally do.

Am I missing something or Airtable does not have an input method to select a user (aka Collaborator)?What I want to do: create a script that first asks to select a user.I know I can create a workaround (below) but that is not my question... is there really no Collaborator input?(we are also missing a Date input since at least 3 years apparently - only solution is to parse text... for real?)Automatable workaround, for those interested:create a table, call it "Users" or somethingset two fields, Name (type: Formula)

Hi Community,I am pulling information from multiple records in a sync'd base into one record in a new base. By doing this I getting multiple images associated with this record, which I love. However some images are associated with multiple records in in the sync'd base and therefore multiples of the same image is added to the attachment. Is there a way to remove the duplicate attachments without having to do it manually? Making sure all attachments are unique.Thanks! 

I am trying to add a button in the interface designer to open up the address in google maps. I want to pass the address and city field to google mapsSo something like:"https//google.com/map/place/" & {Address} & {City} I can't seem to get it to work. Existing examples on this forum seem to refer to the old interface designer. On the new version can you do this? If so can anyone suggest the correct format?Thanks in advance.

Hi,I have a very simple script that sends two single fields of one record via a webhook to another service. Yet I'm getting an execution error:Script exceeded execution time limit of 30 secondsThis script was working fine for last two years and now it's throwing this type of an error once in 5-6 executions. How can I fix that?The script: console.log(`Hello, ${base.name}!`);let inputConfig = input.config();let response = await fetch('here_is_my_webhook_url', {&n

Hi!I've been looking to see if it's possible to have the JIRA Cloud Extension automatically pull down to a defined table within a base at given intervals rather than to have to manually click the "Pull from Jira" button.Was looking at the automations functions and it didn't seem like it was possible. Any ideas or is manual the only way?

Hi!  Using an automation designed to send and collect wedding rsvps via a form - I customised the automation to use it for our events company.The automation uses a CRM/Contacts table, a RSVP table to collect the new responses, and a form linked to the RSVP table. A personalised link in the CRM/Contacts table is sent to each contact. This link (image attached) is a form prefilled with their name and details, and few empty fields for them to complete. The data entered into the form > feeds into the rsvp table > then updates the CRM/Contacts table records.The problem we're having is invited people are forwarding their personalised links to others for them to attend the event. Inviting new people isn't a problem - the problem is the new person overwrites the existing data/user in the CRM table (unlike a wedding where guests don't invite other guests). I have to manually go, roll back the data, and create a new record for the new person.To c

I have an Automation that triggers when a new pdf has been added via Documint.  It sends an email with the pdf document that has been added as an attachment.  The issue is it is sending all of the attachments in the field and not just the one that has been most recently added. I would like to know how I can send just the last attachment that has been added in the field and ignore the existing ones.

I added collaborators to my full workspace. But actually want to give them access to specific bases. Is there a way to change this permission, without removing them from the workspace and then re inviting them to specific bases instead? I have searched everywhere. I feel this should be easy and visually blatant. Yet, I’m stumped. Thanks
