Hi everyone,Our company kick off migration project on Google Workspace, and we need to adjust our email account. Example: current email: alphabet@abc.com.vn; new email in new workspace: alphabet@sub.abc.com.vn. When we complete migration, we will rename the domain and email will come back to alphabet@abc.com.vn.So what I concern and need your support are as below:When we move to use new email account: alphabet@sub.abc.com.vn, do you have any way to set rules to automatic transfer/move bases in current workspace to new workspace?During this our migration time, does it have any risk or bug like miss data or something like that? If acctually we have this risk, what I need to do to backup my data d

Hoping someone can help me with this...So we are a golf cart company, we have a form on webflow that automatically updates our airtable when leads select which upgrades they would like. However, in order to make sure we have enough on hand, we need to be able to track for each upgrade column, how many people have ordered. For this to happen, we would need to be able to filter to a view so that it's only for paying customers, not just everyone that fills out the form.Ideally we'd like to make this into an interface that shows "Soundbars Ordered" then displays the number of times that upgrade column was checked in the deposits placed view.

I can't wrap my head around this... For demo purposes, I have created a pretty simple base that looks like so, and this all looks goodThen I created a simple interface; the only problem is the item highlighted, which is incorrect. I have tried all the options, and nothing is giving me the correct %. If I plot the same data in Excel, this is what I see:Any idea how do I get the right ROI % (I need the result from the same table)?    

Hi,I have a Comedy Club and I use an Artist Availability form I made, so that the comics can pick and chose the dates they are available, 3 months at a time.Is there a way to have automate a calender so I don't have to keep making a new form every 3 months?Thanks Gang Members! 

Hello all,Very new to Airtable, but very excited to be learning. We are currently using Airtable in conjunction with our Calendaring program to track when people are OOO or Travelling. We have set up an automation that when a Calendar invite has OOO or DOM in the title, it colors it RED or GREEN on our Airtable Calendar database and our managers can read that clearly. What our manager would really like to know is if 3 or more people are out at the same time or if people are travelling to the same area. This would show opportunities for site visits, etc. Is there a way I can write an automation that identify "high travel areas" like this? I realize we might not be able to get really specific.

Hey, is there a way to separate files in an attachment field in airtable?Currently we have customers submitting photos into an attachment that automatically creates a new airtable record. These photos are stored under the one attachment field in airtable. I'm wanting to create an individual record for each file/photo in a different table called photos. For example; a customer submits three photos in one attachment. I want this to trigger an automation that creates a new record for each file within the attachment field. I've attached the code I'm trying to use with no success. Is there a way to do it without code?

I’m trying to setup an automation to email someone outside of my organization. I get a message saying that’s not allowed on my plan (Plus) but it doesn’t say what plan will allow this. I just upgraded in order to do this… I don’t want to upgrade again without knowing for sure that the next plan will make this possible.

Hi, I’m trying to automate creating an invoice on Quickbooks Online by a button press on Airtable through Integromat. While I’m successful in creating an invoice, the invoice is created for a Customer in Quickbooks.

Create Invoice button exists in Projects table. On button click an invoice is created for all the items from Items table associated with the respective Project. In Quickbooks: Customer exists. Multiple Projects exist under Customer. Problem: Unable to map the invoice created to a Project in Quickbooks Any ideas, tips or solutions on how to achieve this? Thanks!

I have created automations within Airtable so that when a box is checked in one table, all of the production tasks will be created in another table. My question is, sometimes the title for an event will change in the first table. How can I get that change to be automatically reflected in the production tasks found in my other table? I have tried several times without success. Thanks for the help!

As of today I cannot edit or create and fields in my Airtables. When I try and save edits, it loads for about ten seconds and then gives me an error and tells me to refresh. If I create a new field it looks fine for about ten seconds and then it forces me to refresh. After refreshing any changes are gone.This happens in my web browser and the AirTable app. I have tried restarting the browser/app, restarting the computer, etc., but nothing helps.Is anyone else experiencing this?

Hi,I want to search for 1 item in a table which contains multiple items in a cell - apple, banana, grape.The filterByFormula with the = only works if there is only 1 item in the cell.  If they are multiple items, I get an error.I tried using "contains" and "like" but they don't work.  What should I use?ThanksSteve

Hi Again Everyone. I had accidentally marked my post as solved but it is not, I will repost what I am struggling withBelow is my issue, I have been told about a "record ID" though I am unsure if this will work as I am trying to update a whole column of "Single Select" Statuses from "Booked" to "Completed" Hi, I am trying to create either a script or automation that will detect multiple records for me based on specific conditions. Then automatically changing their status I have my trigger set up, If a record has a scheduled date that was one day ago and the status on it is "booked"I want to then update anything under these conditions to "completed" I am having issues setting up the "updating" feature.  

We have a database of transactions that is monthly via csv import. This contains information like transaction id, amount, duration.Most transactions are simple one-time occurrences; however, some transactions happen over the span of months.For these long duration transactions, we apply a partial payment at day 30, 60, 90, etc. until the final payment which is a remainder of the total transaction. The issue we run into is that the transaction length and amount can adjust part way through.For example, transaction A has a value of 1,000 and duration of 40 days. Day 30 has passed and day 40 is in the future so our system flags this transaction for partial payment.Calculating the day 30 partial payment is simple:Daily rate * 30(1,000 / 40) * 30 = 750The issue happens when we import the following month's transaction data. transaction A imports again, but this time it has been adjusted to have a duration of 43 days and value of 1,100.

I am trying to create a scoring system using Airtable where judges can score a team (with the different metrics in columns). What I have done: Created 3 different tables for each judge Each judge’s table has a list of all the teams (teams are populated as new records across all judges’ tables automatically using external software) Judges can manually key in the score for each metric and an overall score is automatically calculated in the respective record What I need help with: However, I want to create a new table which gives a summary of the overall score for each team for each judge (i.e. looking across a particular record, I will be able to see the overall score for judges A, B and C). And I want this table to be updated AUTOMATICALLY whenever each judge finish scoring the team. What I have achieved thus far is using linked tables and lookup function. However, this is very inefficient as I have to manually choose whi

I'm trying to run a script with 4 inputs, one is a Users name and the other three are lists of users labeled Junior, Mid, Senior. I want to return Junior, Mid or Senior depending on which list the User is in, the user will always be in one of the lists. When I run tests where I search for a user within the Junior list the output is 'Name not found in any list'.I will attach my script code below; the logic seems right however it does not find the user in the lists.Script:function findUserList(User, SeniorList, MidList, JuniorList) {// Check if the inputs are strings and split them into arrays; if not, use them as they arelet seniorArray = Array.isArray(SeniorList) ? SeniorList : SeniorList.toString().split(", ");let midArray = Array.isArray(MidList) ? MidList : MidList.toString().split(", ");let juniorArray = Array.isArray(JuniorList)

Hi there, i'm having issues with letters' case in my filterByFormula text and API call.I'm trying to do a searching box where user can give an input of what they are looking for, and Airtable fetches from a big database. Right now if i'm looking for "Hilfinger" it actually works alright and returns a few records, but if I type "hilfinger" it won't find anything.Here is my API call, i hope you can help:https://api.airtable.com/v0/appk7bV1OTtj*****/Offerte?filterByFormula=SEARCH(%22TEXT+HERE%22%2C+%7BNome+Oggetto%7D)&sort%5B0%5D%5Bfield%5D=Identificativo&sort%5B0%5D%5Bdirection%5D=descWhat would be ideal to happen is that Airtable gets the records even if cases are lower of uppercase.Thank you very much, any help would be much appreciated

I copied the Project management Airtable Template and I see Manual sort as a field type. This is not available for me on any other bases. Is this a new field type? 

I have a table with 5K+ rows of data as such:table1Date - Year(formula of date) - Month(formula of date) - DataPoint1/1/2020   2020                                         01                          5461/2/2020   2020                                        02                           45...I'm pulling this data occasionally to an external dashboard with paginated API calls and would rather not have that latency.....which is fine, as I don't need all 5K+ records....I really just need the grouped and summed yearly and monthly totals such as:Year  -  Month  - DataPoint (a

Hi,I'm pretty new to Airtable and am unable to find an answer to my question.We're using a table as a DAM for our assets. I've uploaded all of our assets to the table, creating different fields to help tag them. We're using another table within the same base to plan our social media content.How do I pull in the image from the DAM table into the social media content table? I was just uploading as an attachment but would like to pull in from the DAM, so if it changes, it will automatically change within the social media content table.

Hello,I'm currently working on setting up an email system for sending bulk messages to suppliers. I've discovered that I can utilize automations to enable Airtable to automatically send emails to suppliers based on the information in my table. Additionally, I've set it up so that it sends a follow-up email one week later using the date field.However, I'm unsure if it's feasible, but I'm wondering if there's any method, whether it involves additional tools or any other means, that would allow me to check if I've received a response from the email or domain and incorporate that information into the automation process?

For our project management team, I want to create an Email Digest Automation where Every Monday/Wednesday/Friday at 1:00 PM for example, if there are Rush or High Priority Tasks coming up (Final Due Date) tomorrow, the email sends to those to who are responsible for each tasks. So far, I have Trigger : At a Scheduled Time (Every 1 Week on M,W,F)Action/Logic: Find Records (Where Final Due Date is Tomorrow)Action/Logic: Send an Email. -> And this is where I have issues. I don't know how to set it so each person who is responsible for each tasks receives the email, instead of sending it to everyone as a whole. We use "Assignment" fields to determine who is responsible to each task, but not sure how to integrate that on the automation here so let me know. 

Hi all - I work for an image retouching company and have a table in my base named Assets. These are all images that get linked to projects in a different table. Some of my projects have up to 50 assets. I have been adding new thumbnails for each assets and then copy and pasting the file name for each. I want to be able to drag and drop the thumbnails into a field to batch upload them -- and populate the thumbnail into the "Thumbnail" field and the file name into "Assets" field. I would not be uploading more than one thumbnail per asset. Here is one catch: I need this to happen on the interface level, not on the base level. The base contains sensitive financial data that cannot be shared with everyone. I was able to figure it out on the base level but need all of my colleagues to be able to batch upload as well via interfaces.Is this possible? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,When we originally set up our Airtable SSO integration, it was set to match against the user primary identifier (we call it a netid) instead of using the email field. Let's say my netid is d39562b. When I log in with SSO, my account email address looks like: d39562b@dartmouth.edu.However, if I don't have an Airtable account, and someone sends me an invite to join a base or workspace, the email goes to the email address which is my "real" one - joseph.montibello@dartmouth.edu. Then if I accept the invite, my account email address will be that form (joseph.montibello@dartmouth.edu). If there's no existing account with that form, it will create an account for that.So my problem is twofold:When a user gets invited to a base or workspace, Airtable sends email to an address (

Is it possible to pull data from Harvest into Airtable? Specifically I am looking to transfer costs (Time and Expenses) in Harvest into two fields in my Airtable base. I do not see this functionality natively available with Zapier or Make, but am curious if anyone has found a solution. Thanks in advance!

Hello all 🙂 I've been staring at this and I am sure it is right in front of me but can't see it. I have a table of scenes that have their filming date defined by a lookup field (I link backwards for print result purposes - if you have seen my other posts DocsAutomator saved my sanity)Now the problem is of course that the linked filed doesn't ACT like one, so I cannot sort properly by date. I can group all the same dates together but they sort alphabetically, not chronologically. How do I accomplish this?
