Hi all,Just asking for a kick in the right direction for a formula, extension/script and/or automation that'll put the PriceInput value from my Price List table into the Database1 table (whether it's displayed in the Lookup or thrown into the PriceOutput field) when the "Agency, Board Type, Size, Type" match.I can see the option's available to select the suitable record via manually selecting it in the linked cell (as pictured in attachment) but this is obviously the part I need automated when a new record gets put in or updated.Database1 : https://airtable.com/apprcSs2FuTW9JKPJ/shrX6iv9CyKfOFLN3Price List : https://airtable.com/apprcSs2FuTW9JKPJ/shrMo95QtDPC7n3HqGreatly appreciated in advance 🙏

Do you know how manufacturing facilities have a "days since last accident/injury/whatever" sign? I need to create something like that on a dashboard. I was hoping to be able to use the simple "summary" extension but I can't seem to figure out how to do it.I have a table that tracks events and their corresponding dates. Events happen almost every day. Every once in a while, there is a day that has 0 events. Each event also has a time duration (minutes). On days with no events at all, a record is still created (via automation) for charting purposes, and the field that shows the duration of the event will show 0. I'd like to be able to display the number of days since the date when there were no events. Example:DATEEVENT DURATION (MINUTES)5 days ago

Hello-I have created a field with single select options. Is it possible to create a link such that when an option is selected it will link to a new field with new sub categories? Example: Field= Clothing with  Single Select Options: Skirt, pants, suit., etc.  When "Skirt" is selected, I'd like a new subcategory further defining skirt to become available either to populate the same field or a new field ex:  mini, knee, maxi, long. Thank you.

Hello, I am trying to write an Airtable automation Script where I am trying to create a new record to an existing table that has 4 fieldsFriendly Name (String)Platform Name (String)Platform Type (Prefixed Value)Data (Self-reference Linked Records field) When I run this code where I am setting all the values except the "Data" field because I don't want the new record to be linked to any other record   const data = { "Friendly Name": d, "Platform Name": d, "Platform": {name: "Launch"}, } const record = await table.createRecordAsync(data) I keep getting the same error ERROR Error: Field "fldtUMUOntLLXvVx8" cannot accept the provided value. at <anonymous> on line 121 at <anonymous> on line 137 at main on line 43  where fldtUMUOntLLXv

Small charity here thank you for reading!  I am trying to make a sign up sheet for volunteers to sign up to wrap Christmas presents for children - that bits sorted.  But I need to sort parking for them. On the main base theres a linked column that pulls up there name and there car registrations so it pulls through for each hour which volunteers are in and in each hour slot it tells me what the number plates are.I am trying to hide those fields (again fine) and have a field for each day that shows all car number plates expected in the car park and ideally remove the ones that are there for multiple slots and just show them the once.Am I being silly what would I use to find this I swear I used to be able to do show it as a roll up or something but for the life of me I cannot work it out. Thanks in advance 

Hi all! I am reaching out in hope of finding a solution. So I work for a music instrument manufacturer where we track each job (all instrument specifics) in our airtable database. I am trying to find a way to have a price column that calculates as you toggle the different specs of each instrument. Any ideas or solutions here? Thanks ahead of time!

I created PAT as followed in documentation and copied it's token but I can't use it.I do get an "Error 403" in Make when I use my PAT there and I also get "Invalid Personal Access Token" in Xano.I checked the documentation regarding it and it seems I don't understand how to use it since I only wanted to use the template as base here in airtable and use it's table in Xano as a test data.

Is it possible to exclude records that have a zero value from an average rollup?

I use Airtable to track and schedule vaccinations for the animals in my calf barn. Using the birthdate of the calf, I have formulas in the due date fields to calculate the appropriate date to give each vaccine to each animal. Then I have a field with a checkbox to indicate when that vaccination has been completed. I use the calendar view with this table to show me what I need to complete on any given day. This works well, but what I want to create is an automation that removes the item from the calendar view after I check it off as being completed in the grid view. I would even settle for the date of that item being changed to a date 6 months in the past or something, just as long as it doesn’t keep showing up and cluttering my current calendar. But most automations I have tried can’t alter a “calculated date”, which most of my fields are because they are all based on the birth date of the calf. I have been puzzling over this for a week now and am hoping someone out there has a pote

Hi!Please excuse my lack of knowledge as I am a novice user of Airtable, and also not familiar with databases.I am seeking guidance and help on a small matter.I have collated birthdays and anniversaries of my friends, about 900+. I have created the base and the Table and called it 'Master View'. Now in this table, I want to have a 'Daily View' wherein based on the date on a daily basis, I get to see the sifted data of only those who are celebrating their birthday and anniversary on that day. I can then share the link of this 'View' with all my friends for a better coordination amongst us on daily basis.Please help. Thanking in advance.(The fields in the 'Master View' of my Table are Name, Name of Spouse, Date of Birth, Date of Marriage, Contact Number, and Mugshot (photo) of the person.)

Hi,I'm having trouble with Airtable displaying options off the visible screen. So far I have experienced this with automation menus (first image) and creating dropdown fields (second image). Is there a way to force these menus to only appear on the visible sections of the screen or a way to scroll these back into view?Thanks for the help.   

I have a shared view that should react to data that has changed in another table in the base, however it seems to take a while before the change is reflected in the shared view. Does anyone know what the frequency of the cache refresh for a shared view is? Is it possible to change it?Essentially I have a directory of freelancers that can be used by all contributors to network with each other. Part of that networking is finding out who is near you. Each entry in the directory has a long and lat associated with it and I have implemented a function that calculates distances based on who is selected in a linked table (i.e the person selected there is the point from which distance calculations are performed).I've implemented it this way so that I don't have to get charged for geocoding API calls and because the contributors are not users on my base (they don't have Airtable accounts, they just contribute by filling in their details on a form and viewing the directory by the

I've got two tables "Table A" and "Table B", that are linked. Table B utilizes the look up tool to pull certain information from Table A. However new records were added to Table A and the lookup on Table B isn't pulling that information. There's no view, filter or automation conflicting with this so why are newly created records not being found by the look up tool?

I am looking to build a base for Tradeshow scheduling, deliverables, budget, attendance, and post show statistics. For context we are a manufacturer who attends other tradeshows with a booth and a set of products. My role is to make sure the marketing materials are created and produced, the logistics of products and booth to be delivered, while staying within a budget.The goal would be to track the amount of time until a tradeshow and track the deliverables and their due dates needed before the tradeshow occurs. Separately I would report the budget of the tradeshow as a whole (if we exceeded or came under) along with the activities that made up for it.As a stretch goal, i'd like to create a form that would populate into the base with Tradeshow Name, Dates, Attending, Goals, and budget which would create the backfill dates of tasks leading up to the tradeshow.I've drawn out how i'd like the data to be in relation with each other as well as a form design i'd

I've been trying to update a multipleCollaborator field without overwriting. Specifically I have a lookup field with user IDs and I'm trying to copy the same IDs (hence collaborators) to another (empty) collaborator field.This should be relatively simple and yet i get a "TypeError: record.getCellValue is not a function or its return value is not iterable" // This script downloads all the Auto-Requester's Collaborator IDs and re-prints them in Requester const config = input.config() const recordAT = config.recordAT const autorequester = config.autorequester const requester = config.requester const table = base.getTable('Deliverables') console.log(autorequester) for (var arID of autorequester) { let queryResult = await table.getView('All All').selectRecordsAsync({fields: ["Requester"]}); let record = queryResult.records.find(r => recordAT) console.log(record.getCellValue("Request

Hello, I just made an API request to Airtable that failed, and I don't have enough traceability data to inform me about the details of the request for which the API request failed (e.g.: the different fields and values in the request body).Is there any log store where I can see all the requests (or at least just the failed ones) made to my Airtable base via the API? Or is there any way to query for these failed requests via an interface/API?
