I can’t figure out how to make links between two tables work the way I need them. Here’s the situation:Table 1 contains a list of Companies. These Companies are differentiated by Type (multiselect) and split into multiple views based on that: Producers view and Architects view.Table 2 contains a list of Projects. Each Project has a Project Owner field (link to Companies, single record) and Project Participants field (link to Companies, multiple records).So far so good. Back to Table 1, for each Company I need it to show the following fields:Projects (Participant) - Link to Projects and show all Projects where a Company is referenced as the Project Participant Projects (Own) - Link to Projects and show all Projects where a Company is referenced as the Project OwnerThis is where I get stuck: When creating a link to the Projects table (2) from the Companies Table

Hello,I am building a dashboard in which I include a control formula in order to make sure the AI reads well.However the behaviour is inconsistent. Check formula :IF({Amount (vat incl.)}={Amount (VAT incl.) (check)},"✅","❌") Calcul formula{Amount (vat incl.)}-{Amount (VAT incl.) (check)} QUESTIONWhy is one result -0 and the other 0 when the mechanics between formulas and parameters are the same ?

Hi,Is there any way to search an entire base with the Search feature on the mobile app? I’m only able to see how to search within one view and one table at a time.Our team has added QR codes to records in our base, and would like to use the scanner within the Search feature on the mobile app to scan a QR code (from a printed label) and pull up the corresponding record in the Airtable app.This works fine *if* you know which table and which view to search in. However the base has multiple tables and views (it was not set up optimally). If you’re searching in the wrong table, or view, OR if a filter has been applied by another user to the view you’re searching in, you’ll get a “record not found” message.So I’d love to find an easy way to scan in the QR Code with the mobile app, and just search the whole base.Any ideas??Thanks very much.Elaine

I’ve got a very simple IF statement Facon is a check box, and it’s clearly empty.Material Supplier address is a lookup and is filled in in most instances. However, I can’t get this basic thing to work? Am I doing something wrong?

Dear Airtable Team and Community, I was genuinely excited about the new features showcased in the AI Playbook during the “Omni and Field Agent” webinar. The potential of these tools, particularly the “Maximize Event ROI (MER)” and “Visualize Product Materials (VPM)” templates, was impressive and promising. However, I encountered a few issues after downloading and testing the templates. In the MER template, I was unable to activate the map feature, despite being on a Teams subscription. Similarly, in the VPM template, the 3D viewer did not appear to be available. Additionally, I noticed that all my AI credits were consumed the following day, even though I had only copied the templates into my workspace without making any active use of them. Could you kindly clarify if these features are currently functional or if certain elements were included primarily for demonstration or marketing purposes? If I’ve missed a step in setting th

I’m using Airtable to organize a writing group, and I’m trying to set up an automation that will send a weekly reminder about the meeting on the day before we meet, but only to the people who opt into the reminders (who are all listed in a “Reminders List” view of my “Members” table). However, when I activate the automation, it sends multiple emails to each person on the list. How have folks set up weekly reminders to a designated group? I can’t seem to get the table’s “email” field to work as a correct input for “To” so I’ve used another airtable community post’s recommendation of the “find records” action to make a list of people needing the email...but now instead of four people each receiving the email once, each of us receives the email four times. Here’s what I currently have set up, in case that’s helpful:Trigger: at a scheduled time (Mondays at 10am) - WORKS First Action: find records (From the “Members” table, make a list of

Hi all,I am in the process of creating a table for my coaching and consulting work. I have listed all my client names and which company they work for in a table. With about half of these people I actually have meetings with. These meetings are all on Zoom or Teams and I am sent a Zoom Meeting Summary compiled by AI Companion, which creates a summary of what we spoke about. Ultimately what I would like to achieve is the following:I would like this table to automatically assign any meeting summaries the clients are involved in, and then in a separate field, I would like Airtable to extract information from the provided summaries to display what the focus has been for the past six months, and another field to provide recommendations on how to best move forward with each person. Is that possible?

I am trying to share information between two tables, a short list of info and a long list of info. There is a checkbox column in the long list that when checked, it adds that record to the short list. But if the record is unchecked, I want to delete that record from the short list, so it is not there anymore. I haven’t found an easy way to do this, so I wanted to throw it out here.

Hello! I’m new to this community and hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I need to create a base that can match college students with alumni for 1-on-1 meetings, based on career interests. Each person will have up to 3 career interests, but meeting pairs only need to match on one of those interests.  Each student must be matched with only 2 alums Each alum should not have more than 2 students (but can have fewer)I created a base with 3 tables - Students, Alums, Career Interests - and linked the Student table to the Alumni table so I can see all of the matching alums for each student. I just cannot figure out how to limit the matches to just 2 for each person. Is this possible in Airtable or do I have a lot of manual work ahead of me?

I have intermediate understanding of ME and have build several portals before.If you have experience setting up advanced MiniExtensions workflows. I’d love to connect.

I’m trying to write a nested if formula in a CRM document. I have a column for the frequency I need to contact someone, a column with the date they were last contacted and a column that I want to say “Overdue” if it’s more than X days since my last contact. For instance, if I have the Frequency marked Monthly, I want it to say “Overdue” if it’s been more than 30 days since my last contact.Here’s what I have now, but it doesn’t say “Overdue” when it should. Everything in the column is blank.IF(AND(Frequency="Weekly",DATETIME_DIFF({Last Contact}

I've never been fussy about colors, but the new options for base themes are a big step backwards for me.  The old bright, bold, cheery, energetic & fun colors that made the Airtable experience feel enjoyable and different from your average boring, serious database, have been replaced by: A) a dark, dreary version (my green base now looks exactly like Excel - uugh) or a mushy pastel version (were people asking for more 'washed out' low contrast header options?).The fun bright colors were part of Airtable's experience (and brand) for me.  Is there a way to bring them back for my workspace?  

I have to download the attachments from smarsheet and directly upload them in to Airtable attachments column. is it possible as it is taking much time to upload attachments one by one?

I have created a table with my suppliers and the products the offer. I have the following tables:SuppliersProductsInvoicesInvoices linesIn Suppliers I enter every company I work or might be interested in working in the future.In products I have all the products offered, each product has a price and the supplier that offers that product (It has many other fields but are not important here)In Invoices lines I put the content of each invoice I create in the Invoices table and when I recall a product, it recalls as well the price.The problem is sometimes I have exactly the same product offered by multiple companies and one of the ideas of this database is to be able to make a price comparision.So I want every product to be connected to multiple suppliers and to have the price that every supplier asks for such product. And then, when I do the invoice lines and I recall the product, i’d love for airtable to recognize who is

Hi people!I am trying to establish an automation which appends a row to Google Sheet when the certain cell in Airtable is filled.Everything is ok except that duration data from a formula cell is not synced as h:mm as in Airtable but instead I get some strange number such as 3427.Is there any way I can correct this?Thanks so much!

I was told Airtables had better database like features than Notion, but cant find them I have 3 tables, A → B → C , and want to get data from A in C but cant find a wayFor example I have a clients table, a contracts table and a monthly payments table, in payments table i link to the contract to be paid (and ofc contracts links to clients), clients table include a field security_deposit. I want to calculate the amount to pay for the given month, and include a checkbox to mark its the first payment. Another thing (that Notion can actually do) is to reference a column of a linked table in a formula, I cant find away to reference data by formula in Airtables.For example, in Notion using gui i cant do what i want, but I can use a formula to achieve it.This would be something like: if( first, contract.map(c

I’m having an issue with an automation getting stuck when trying to update a Google Calendar invite, but only in a conditional set of automations. When I test it with the exact same instructions without the other actions it works fine, so I know that the configuration is good. The automation is triggered when 3 fields match conditions. The conditional actions are based on 2 different fields with the first two actions having one of the fields the same (status), and the other field being empty or not. These first 2 sets of actions work just fine with no issues. The second set of actions is a different status, and whether the other field is empty or not.

HOW can we HIDE or MOVE the "Uncategorized” column on a Kanban view embedded on a website?Use Case:I’m a Film & TV Producer with an option on a novel.If you look at: Hardcastle - Heather Hale Productions you’ll see we have embedded a public-facing “Casting Strategies” character short lists that links to an Airtable Kanban.UNfortunately “UNcategorized" is the most prominent LEFT column. ;-/Even though it is collapsed on the Airtable base - that doesn't translate to the WordPress website.I would much prefer if we could hide or filter it out so that if/when that "UNcategorized" column is empty, its empty column won’t show at all (much less be so prominent (first thing most eyes fall upon: top left-hand corner).Worst case scenario, if we could at least move it all the way to the far right, it’d be less prominent, less distracting and

After creating a Blank interface, I used "Add element" to add record-pickers for tables A, B, C, and D, as shown in the image. For each table, I arranged the relevant fields vertically.What I want to achieve is to visually group the vertically arranged sections for tables A, B, C, and D. I think just giving each section a different background color would be enough.However, it seems that such a basic feature doesn’t exist, so I’m wondering if I might be missing something.Thank you!  

Hey all!I’m currently developing an extension for Airtable, and at the moment, all of the logic resides in a single file, index.js, as generated by the initial project setup.Is it a requirement of Airtable’s extension framework that all code must remain in index.js, or is it safe to refactor the logic into multiple modules/files for better organization and maintainability with TypeScript?I’d appreciate any official guidance or best practices. Thanks in advance!

Hello, since today I am having a problem that does not allow me to work with Airtable. When I try to paste a code snippet into a text field of any type the program gives an error and crashes. I have done this many times before and there have never been any problems… But today there is no way…
