I am using Integromat to pick up a webhook sent from Airtable. I want to then whitelist the Airtable IP addresses How to know the IP of my airtable account - #2 by Bill.French ← question was asked here, but not answered (a re-open might be a good option so we can re-open questions). To answer some of the questions in that original post: I understand this is not a cure-all security method, it does provide one more layer of protection. Yes, a webhook is my preferred method of sending data from Airtable in this instance as this webhook works across a number of services - so it is not a read Airtable first scenario. Thanks

Hello,Want to strike through text in a cell if a given string is found in another cell in that row.  Is this possible?The cell whose text I want to strike through is already a concatenation of various other field values.  It's looking in a different field for the term "OMIT", and if that is found I'd like the text strike-through'd.The "OMIT" will be searched for in a single select field, but I don't think that matters since I've already successfully searched for and IF'd stuff based on single select text contents.TIA for any assistance.

HiI have some linked tables. The first link is between "People" and "Working Groups". When in the Working Group table I can look up people's names and add them to the field "Members". When in the People table, I can make a link back to Working Groups, and a field called working groups will self populate with all the Working Groups that people are members off. This is all working fine.I have a second link between "People" and "Training". When in the Training table I can look up people's names and add them to the field "Attendees". When in the People table, I can make a link back to Training, but I can't make a field that will self populate with all the training people have received. What am I doing wrong?The only difference in layout between Working Groups and Training, is that training's unique identifier is a date.Any light you could shed would be very helpful.Thanks,Davva

For some reason I cannot select the text within my formulas, meaning I cannot choose which text to copy for pasting later. It is only within the formula editing that I cannot edit the text. I can select text everywhere else:Selected text on here:Can't select text hereOkay to select text here:  

Hi, is there a way for Airtable to automatically log me out due to inactivity? I dont want it to stay open if i am not using it. Thanks

Hello! We operate in an industry dealing with perishable goods, where the timing of receiving products (INBOUND) and the customer's requested shipping date (OUTBOUND) are crucial factors. We are trying to create a base structure/formula so we can keep track of inventory.Our primary challenge is to accurately determine the current inventory of raw materials on any given day. This inventory depends on the items we currently have on hand and any anticipated future deliveries of raw materials (INBOUND) for the upcoming week, provided they arrive before the customer's designated ship-out date (OUTBOUND Ship Date). Furthermore, our system must consider existing customer orders placed for the week and determine which incoming delivery of raw materials these orders will draw from.For example, suppos

Hello,I have a problem with a formula linked to a look up. I have a table with my banking transactions (linked to my bank) and another with forecast expenses. I did a look up to get the bank balance and I made a formula (Bank balance-expenses) for the first line the calculation is correct but for the other lines it does not give me the balance calculated above. Do you have any ideas to solve this problem?

While on a product feedback call with proj. management platform ClickUp, I asked if there were any 'Airtable-like features' in development or on their roadmap.I proceeded to explain my love for Airtable as an early adopter, but they continue to make user-hostile changes, refuse to listen to the community, & price increases. "Are you familiar with Airtable?" I asked.  "Yes, only because I've had 3-4 people tell me the same exact thing in the past few months. The team is looking into what it might look like." So to the point of my story. If he's heard it 3-4 times, ClickUp has had DOZENS (or more?) of requests from unhappy Airtable customers. This also means HUNDREDS (or more?) of folks have shared similar sentiments to other productivity SaaS. My true hope is to stick with Airtable, that it goes back to respecting the community, especially after all the layoffs but without changes at the top, I

I have these two fields Formula on Contract Yield % is this:({Contract Rent PW}*52)/{Purchase Price}I need to replace the formula in the Contract Yield, to an IF formula.More likely:When the result on Contract Yield is 0%,   If Contract yield = above 1%, use Contract yield formula, but if it's 0% I need to use Appraised Yield Can you please help me what is the correct formula to make it work?I already tried (IF({Contract Yield}=0,{Appraised Yield}but it's not showing the correct results

Apologies if this is a simple question - I've tried to figure this out for hours now and I'm at a loss. I'd prefer not to use automation for something so simple, but will do so if necessary. Here is my issue:I have an intake form setup to receive responses from sources external to my org. Let's say it's a form to request for sandwiches to be delivered. The user selects from various options for types of sandwiches (Peanut Butter, Ham and Swiss, Roast Beef). Each of these sandwiches take different times to prepare. Therefore, I have the following tables with the following fields:Sandwich RequestsTypePrepare TimeRequesterDate ReceivedEtc.SandwichesTypePrepare TimeThe "Sandwiches > Prepare Time" field is just a number - the days it takes to prepare a sandwich. I want this to automatically populate into the "Sandwich Request > Prepare Time" field automatically b

I am trying to assign 4 different users records as the come in.  I found this code const collaborators = [ {name: "Person 1"}, {name: "Person 2"}, {name: "Person 3"}, {name: "Person 4"} ] const chosenOne = collaborators[Math.floor(Math.random() * collaborators.length)]; output.set("collaborators", chosenOne.name) My problem is that it doesn't exhaust the 4 names before repeating.  What do I need to do to this code for it to go through all 4 options and then repeat?

I accidentally deleted a base and restored it from trash but none of my information is in it. I am getting an error message. Base not found.

I have three forms to fill out with data, and they go in sequence. Is there any way that the answers from all three forms go into one entry. Right now, each form creates a new record.

(Similar to this post though with an additional layer)I have a table with Interactions. There's a Status single-select field and a Timestamp field (since this data is being imported from elsewhere) that shows when the data was captured in the original system.There's a second table named Opportunities. All the interactions with one individual are linked to their respective Opportunity record. I need a field in the Opportunities table that reflects the Status of the linked Interaction record with the most recent / max Timestamp.The solution to the post I linked above pulls the max date, which would work if all I needed was the most recent Timestamp date pulled into the Opportunity record. However I need to know the most recent Status based on the Timestamp.Any thoughts? I may be missing a simple

I first want to say how much I love using Airtable. But am super confused. I thought I was paying for a monthly rate and the charge on my credit card today was over $1000. So in Canadian funds that is over $1300. I can possibly pay that!!! Help!

Hi,I am running into issues. I am not a coder at all and I ask GPT to help me. Usually, it does a great job in writing some basic scripts and it has already created nice solutions with scripts. But this time, I am running into issues. I have a huge database and I was asking GPT to write a script to merge duplicates. When I do it one by one, it works. But as soon as I let it search the whole database, it crashes and mentions that it's taking longer than 30 seconds. I was trying to break it down into smaller views, but the problem is that it should check all the data actually, and searching records is also not an option since that's limited to 100 only. Any idea would be awesome.here is what i got from GPTOption 1// Access the table let table = base.getTable("Online Stores"); let query = await table.selectRecordsAsync(); let records = query.records; // Define a map to track duplicates let recordMap = new Map(); // Identi

Hello! I am looking for a freelancer with references to build out my 2024 marketing tactical plan. I've used Airtable before for relatively simple project tracking, but this is more detailed. 

I’m wondering if there’s a way to open an edit record page within an Interface for a linked record field using a URL. We have several linked records fields for different resource types that get attached to our tasks, so that we can get further info about the resources associated with those tasks, but we’d prefer not to have to display on the edit page all the various linked record fields for every resource type since only one per task is actually linked. We’d used a synced table to unify the different resource types coming from different tables, but we have more than the allotted sync amount. Any idea or suggestions greatly appreciated!

Muy buenas tardes,Estoy montando mi propio gestor de proyectos, estos proyectos quiero numerarlos con números consecutivos, pero que el primer número sea un número en especifico.Por ejemplo:N. de Pedido: P003245 (Esté sería el primer campo de la tabla)Además, al crearse un nuevo pedido debe de aparecer automaticamente el número consecutivo (en el caso del ejemplo superior, P003246).Extras de funcionamiento:Además, voy a utilizar el apartado de formulario, para introducir los pedidos de una forma más automática y sencilla (no voy a ser yo la persona encargada, y se necesita sencillez). Mi consulta sería, ¿Existe alguna forma de que en el Formulario el N. de Pedido (automatizado anteriormente) aparezca de forma automática? Sin tener que incluirlo a mano.Muchas gracias____________________________________________________Hello,I'm setting up my own project

Hi, all -I'm fairly new to Airtable and use this software to track participants for trainings that we offer. In some instances we have a participant attend more than one of our trainings. I currently have our trainings set up as a multiple choice field but when I group by trainings attended, it's putting these students in a different bucket and I would rather their individual names show up in each of the attended training, not create an additional section - picture for reference of how it currently looks. Hoping this makes sense and any help is greatly appreciated! 

Hello Airtable Community,I'm encountering an issue with an automation I've set up and would appreciate any insights or advice you can offer.Here's what I'm trying to achieve: I have an automation with two steps. The first step is a "Create Record" action, where a new record is added to a table. The second step is a script that should modify a field in the newly created record.The problem: In the script part of the automation, I'm trying to access the ID of the record created in the first step. However, when I run the script, the variable that should hold the record ID (createdRecordId) is coming up as undefined.Details of my setup:The "Create Record" action seems to work fine, as a new record is indeed created.In the script, I'm using input.config() to access the record ID, like this: let inputCon

Is there a way to copy a base schema between accounts? So I don’t need the data - but I’d like to copy the schema (all the tables in a base) to another account. Is there an easy way to do this?
