Hey guys,I am looking for a way to add records form a linked field using a form.Heres what I what I have right now:GFX Request Form to create a new dated request in the Requests table, I have a linked field to "Individual GFX"  to track the individual GFX for each request. Obviously on the interface forms that linked field shows up as a dropdown to choose existing records of individual GFX, I need to be able to make new records. I've seen some posts about this pointing to outside forms and I'd like to avoid using that unless you have a reliable secure form site.Let me know if there's some scripting or automation you know of to do this. OR! Is this something that can be implemented in the future oh airtable overlords? 

Hi all,I have a simple script that is taking some items from the submission of a Gravity Form and updating an AirTable record. It all works great until I get to a section of the form that has checkbox values. INSIDE of one of those checkbox values is a string that contains a commaCheckbox choicesApplesOrangesPearsGrapes, limes and lemonsI can gather all of these out of Gravity Forms and put them in an array and then implode that array to get a comma delimited list, which is what AT wants to absorb that data for checkboxes.$c=Apples, Oranges, Grapes, limes and lemons"records": [{"id": "'.$id.'","fields":{"Committees": "'.$c.'"}}],"typecast":true}';This of course will cause AT to barf when that comes in and tries to split the Grapes out as its own committee and limes and lemons as another committee. I know that in order for AT to treat a Linked Table

Hey guys,I am trying to figure out how to use the Timeline Summarize to count the number of tasks with an end date field instead of the start field field from the timeline date settings. I use the timeline to lay out projects phases and milestones and have both displaying with milestones being tasks/records with only "due dates". Currently the count only counts the main date field for the timeline (start date field) when i need it to count the end date. I'm trying to figure out a way to maybe use a formula and sum to count the number of tasks for each day but can't seem to figure out a good way to do that. If anyone has any ideas let me know!Thanks!

Hello!I'm fairly new to Airtable, but I have found myself stuck on something and I'm unsure the best approach.  I have a base that is receiving data from submitted forms for security requests.  These requests are worked on by 3 different staff members.  I've built interface views for each member and I am now trying to add a button on each interface that once clicked, would update a record with a blank "Assigned to" field to their name and thus populate into their interface view.  Is there anyway to do this in Airtable? It could be I need to think about it in a different way rather than updating a field, that's why I am reaching out!Thanks!!

I'm adding a row in sheets successfully but only 2 of 6 fields are being copied over. What could be the issue? Thanks.

Hi, I have multiple automations pulling data from formula fields, that have been formatted to include the euro sign. This works fine in the data, however when I pull the values into automations, the euro sign and formatting that I put in the formula field isn't applied. The base I am using is under a free account.  Could you let me know of any solutions?  Thanks 

I'm working on a no-code application with Bravo Studio, using Airtable as a backend. I'm trying to implement a 'multilike' system where each user can like multiple items in an identifiable way. I've considered a table of likes with a user-element relationship, but I'd like specific suggestions on how to implement it in Airtable and how to integrate it effectively with Bravo Studio. Any ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated.Thank you!

Hello, I’m actually using proxies to GET/POST information into Airtable from a mobile app. Proxies use the “&field” filter, so the GET response only contains a limited number of fields in the response. This is the approach I have seen suggested around the forum to return a limited number of fields. It comes to my surprise, that if “?id=record_id” is added to a proxied endpoint, no matter what “field” filters are included in the proxy internals they are bypassed and all fields from the record are returned. With all the fields returned, there are dozens of linked records from other tables. It comes again, to my surprise, that, if any of the linked record id’s from other tables are appended to the proxied url ?id=linked_record_id, then the linked record is fully returned (with all its fields). This creates a huge security issue on my app if exploited and I have seen no documentation, com

Hi all, I have a two-table base. The first table/screenshot below is for survey responses; each record is an individual survey response. The second table/screenshot is where the responses roll up for each survey. Is there a way within the rollup filed formula to achieve my highlighted desired result? I'm trying to avoid adding multiple rollup fields for each response type and then concatenating all of the information in a new column.    

I just started using Airtable and I'm trying to remove the date/time from a column or create a new column that has the date/time removed with just the remaining text. The column is linked to another airtable and it is using the primary field, so I don't think I can change it from there. For example, in the column it will have-2023-09-20T00:00:00.000Z Opinion on Policy2022-10-03T00:00:00.000Z Environmental NeedsI want to removed the date and time and have the column say-Opinion on PolicyEnvironmental NeedsThanks for the help! 

Hello everyone, I'm sorry if this is not the proper place to post this, actually I dont know who or where I could get help from. And sorry for my English.I'm very new to this world so I will try to explain my problem as clear as I can.I even set up a test table so you can see it easily. First of all, I would like my clients to fill up a form like this: Then, I would like this data to be sent to my Airtable and create a new record in the column "Chosen Colection" with the chosen colection they selected in the form. The column 'collection' is linked to a price from another board, which I'll show you in the following images:Then I

I am trying to create a URL to search Google Shopping for a specific combination of (Brand, & Product Title), however i am noticing that if either the Brand or Title has more than one word, the URL does not form correctly:Ideally I would use the Google Shopping ID for the product search, but that is a separate URL/search entirely. I also want to add UPC to this, but that shouldn't be a problem as a UPC is not two words (however sometimes multiple UPCs may be searched, so the same issue might arise).If anyone is able to advise, I would greatly appreciate any help!

I’m keeping track of some social media captions in my Airtable base but every time I copy and paste into Airtable I get a prompt to update saved password. It’s quite annoying to have to minimize the window each time I paste something. Is there a way to disable that pop up?

I am trying to have a formula which give me the possibility to have on the same line two fields separated by a coma. This is tricky, because, i need also to have in the formula that if the field is empty if it not showing the empty space or make a break line.Right now I have this, IF({MARQUES}, " " & {MARQUES} & "\n") &IF({DESIGNER}, " , " & {DESIGNER} & "\n") &IF({DATATION}, "  " & {DATATION} & "\n") &IF({COLLEC

I ran into an issue setting up an automation for some colleagues of mine. We all work in the same workspace, but depending on the team there are different tables within the workspace to manage their work. To keep things simple, lets say Team A works in Table A, and Team B works in Table B.Some of the work Team A does in Table A is for Team B. Team B asked for a way to see just that work in their production calendar on Table B. I created an automation pulling just the pertinent info from Table A to Table B so they can keep track of it. (I am oversimplifying this for the sake of my issue.)The automation has so far worked perfectly, with one issue. Team A uses a Date field for their Due dates without a time field, Team B uses a Date field for their due dates with a time field. For whatever reason, when the automation runs, it will change Team A's due date (ex. 1/2/24) to the day before at 7 or 8pm (ex. 1/1/24 7:00pm). Both date fields use the same date format of "U

https://airtable.com/apprdPguzaBCfjD56/shroyWamJGrG0yeMiIn the sample base above, I have two linked Tables. One is a list of projects, the other is information for a quarterly report. Currently, I am linking the tables to each other manually when updating project start and end dates. For example, if I add a new project scheduled to start today and end 3/1/2024, I'd add a new record with a start date of 11/30/22, the end date of 3/1/24, and then link it to the "2023 Q4" and "2024 Q1" records from the second Table. Projects don't often (if ever) end when planned, so I come back and update the end dates often which means I also have to go back to check the linked Quarter records to make sure they're still accurate. This seems like something that should be easily automatable.I don't necessarily even NEED the Quarter Table. There is no other information about each quarter that I collect.

Hi-  I'm a pretty new Airtable user, and have been trying to find solutions via the community posts, but haven't seen anything exactly addressing what I'm attempting to do.I am trying to populate a field with a number of hours to be worked, only if the month for that work falls within a date range.  In Excel, I was able to make this formula work:  =IF(Column's Month<=Completion Date,Average Monthly Software Hours,0)-IF(Start Date>=Column's Month,Average Monthly Software Hours,0)I tried to replicate the formula in Airtable that I succe

Hello. I have a base that has the following tables in it: Projects, Tasks, Communications Form, Web Form, Creative Request Form and Photo/Video Request Form. Under the Tasks table, we have a view that shows what everyone is working on. Each Table that has a Form also has a grid to collect responses and assign a user to the task. Is there a way to pull the tasks from the form tables to the "What are people working on" view in the task table? If not, is there a good workaround that might help people not have to check multiple tables?Thanks!

Hi, is there a way I can send a webhook to an automation in another base via a button which runs a script?So like:press button on record on base A > runs script > script sends webhook to base B > webhook triggers automation to create recordI can achieve what i want via a checkbox and syncing but i dont want them to have to uncheck and check the box to do it againAny ideas?

I need an automation to remove a linked record from a linked record field, without removing all linked records from that field.For instance, if a student is in enrolled in the courses 'knitting for war, animal husbandry and marriage, ice cream + pies', but drops 'knitting for war', I'd like the automation to leave the field as 'animal husbandry and marriage, ice cream + pies'. I gather from some forum browsing (specifically this thread) that this cannot be done without scripting. The good news is someone posted a script on that thread. Yay!The bad news is that the script looks like hieroglyphs to me. So, my questions:1) Is it even safe to implement a script for someone whose understanding of scripts boils down to 'it's magic, I guess?' Like, do I need to worry about ha

This post is a follow up to earlier (closed) post here.

Hi everyone,I'm new to the airtable world and I would like to understand if there is a way to synchronize the field of a base with the field of a different base.Any advice is welcome, thanks!

hello I use airtable as a database for an external application creation solution. I would like to create a Like option but I cannot find the solution because when a user likes it is all the other utilities that see their like so I would like to know if there is a solution via airtable so that the user identifier and like is only visible and operational for the user account in question
