How can you embed the full gallery view on a Wix Site. I don’t want users to have to click at the bottom of the table for the full view. I just want the full gallery view posted. Can this be done? This seems like it should be a no brainer but my brain can’t figure it out. Thanks for any help.

I am having an issue where I have a table that calculates a sum Total. I figured I could easily just show a user’s name + total on the interface but it seems very hard for some reason.Right now, I get the sum with a user’s name, but it then adds all of these columns for each unique sum there is within the data set.Example Image: And here is what the data l​​​​​ooks likeSo I am just trying to make a table on the interface (as we will share that view) that simply shows Name + Total.I have a bar chart showing this, which kind of works, but just having 2 columns with plain text would be nice too in the interface.Thank you!

Hey Airtable Community. I need help with automating the repetitive task of manually changing the name of a file after it’s been uploaded into my base. As of right now, we have a user filling out a form, and after it’s submitted, I want that to trigger the name changing. I have a field that is automatically created with a formula based on information captured in the form that I want the name changed too. I’ve been looking at using the Airtable automation feature, but after trying a bunch of things, I can’t get it to work (perhaps I’m just too new at this) I also feel like maybe using a script might be the answer, but I don’t know how to do that, and if that’s the path to get this to work, I’ll need your help too :slightly_smiling_face: . Ultimately, I’m not sure and was hoping you (the community) might know. Thanks in advance everyone!

Hi,I have an automation that is triggered when a record is created in Table X, and it then creates a new record in Table Y. This automation has been working well, but recently, I've noticed some failures in the Run History.It's not happening with all cases—only some. The trigger and all other actions work fine; the only issue is with the creation of the new record. The error shown is: “Creating the record failed due to insufficient permissions.”However, when I take the same record that triggered the automation and run a manual test using it, everything works perfectly and the record is created successfully.This is quite confusing—I don’t understand why some records fail while others don’t, and why it works without issues during manual test runs.Could you please help me troubleshoot this?

I’m trying to display metrics on claims details on a line or bar chart.  I would like to be able to insert a “goal” line so we can see easily if we are above or below our goal.   Is there a way to do this, or is there anything in the works that could accommodate this request?

Hi I would like to automatically open an input form based on a user input.I have a visitor request form(s),  First I would like to ask the user to identify the visit type (Form 1), based on a selection of a single drop down.  After the submit Form1 I would like to determine which Form to open next for more details based on their selection.  How can I accomplish this?

Hi all, I want to do some fairly complex actions when my users create a new record, and in certain circumstances block them from creating it.Here is the logic that I want to run when I create a new record: If FieldA is not null Look for a record with matching FieldA If such a record is found, do not add this record, stop 🛑 Else: If FieldB is null Fetch BValue from external source with a script that takes FieldA as input If FieldB is now not null: Look for an already existing record with a FieldB value that matches what I found If such a record is found, do not add this record, stop 🛑 Else, update this record with the new FieldB value The first issue is that I have nesting “IF”s here. And I cannot seem to nest IF statements in the automation interface. Is there a way to implement nested-IF logic in an automation other than by creating a custom script? The second issue is how to delete the triggering record. Is there a way to

I’m missing which field/value is used with two tables are linked. Can someone point me in the right direction? In particular,  I have a master business directory table and I want use automation to push in the linking value to the separate Department table. I would have thought that they are linked on the record id, but when I try to push the Department record ID into the master table, it’s not recognized. It seems to want the department name, which is not always unique. Is there a place to see the linking values between tables?

according to the What's New page found at https://www.airtable.com/whatsnew , it says that Interface Charts now support Multiseries and dual y-axis charts and it includes pictures.I don't see these anywhere in the Interface Charts interfaces?  Where are these charts and how do you access them to add to an interface?Much appreciated!

Hello, I am using FILLOUT forms in integration with Airtable.I saw something strange, that if I define a filter on records in my database, then in FILLOUT, I can only select the records that are displayed in the database, even though they are in the table, they are just not displayed because of the filter.Does anyone know if there is any way to solve this problem?

I created a hyperlink in a long text type field, with rich text formatting enabled in gallery view. Works good. But when folks click on the link, the whole card opens. Is there a way, in a long text field with hyperlink, to go directly to the linked URL and not open the card.

I have a Teams level workspace with the following solution : Services Rendered Businesses Staff Monthly Reports YTD ReportsThe monthly & YTD reports are essentially acting as join tables for generating rollups, counts, and other formula fields to create up-to-date Month & YTD reports each time a new Service Rendered is submitted. In order for this to work smoothly for month reports, I set up an automation to relate the services rendered and businesses they were rendered to directly to the report itself each time a new SR was submitted. In order to add the new SR & Business without overwriting the others, I had to lookup and re-insert ALL the businesses and services each time. Not a big deal for one month’s work. BUT…Now, I’m ready to create a similar YTD report of my monthly reports table but quickly discovered that we will always have more than 1000 services rendered in a year, so this will not work for the YTD report after the first few months have passed. Is there a way

Hi all!I publish lots of blog posts about a variety of topics and I have huge comma-separated lists of keywords for each blog post that get fed into a search mechanism for readers to be able to find content that resonates with them.I’m wondering if there’s a way to track all those keywords so that I can see, for example, how many blog posts share the keyword of “tree”? I definitely don’t want to have to select from a multi-list each time I’m entering 50 keywords per blog post, so if I have to just paste the list into a field each time, that’s fine, but it would be nice to be able to have them pointing to a complete list where I can then see how many blog posts we have per each keyword.Thanks in advance!

Hello!We have a dashboard interface that we share with our clients. While we filter the elements of the dashboard to show records only where an email field in the record is the same as the login email of the Airtable account, anyone can still see a full list of who has access to the dashboard and their Airtable email addresses. This has been brought up as a concern as various countries would see that as a possible privacy infringement since contact information is shared. Is there a way to hide this information to others that also have visibility of a public shared link (be it to a base, or interface)?  

Hi,I’m trying to create a field that tells you when the next due date of your credit card payments are, based on what their monthly due date is (e.g. 5th of every month) and today’s date. I know I’m creating a string that looks like a date and not a date itself, which isn’t a problem for me.My issue is that the comparison I’m using to check if the Payment Due Date is before today, a simple comparison of values really, is returning one wrong result! I created extra formula fields to see where things went wrong, and I cannot for the life of me figure out what the issue is! Basically, when I compare the number in Today against the Payment Due Date, with this formula: IF(DATETIME_FORMAT(TODAY(), "DD") > {Payment Due Date}, "yes", "no")  I get an incorrect result (Payment Due Date 5 returns “no” when it should be “yes,” because 22>5). I don’t get it. Does anyone know what’s going on? Thanks a lot!  

Dear all, I do have a base with several tables in it of which HCO’s and HCP’s are two.  HCO’s are Hospitals where HCP’s (doctors) are employed.  I would like to be able to select and/or display hospitals based on whether or not certain HCP’s are available in a hospital (e.g. : display hospitals which do employ orthopaedic surgeons but do not have ophthalmologists available.Tried Airtable support, which came up with scripting.  Please feel challenged to propose  a non (or very, very, low) code solution for this! Thanks so much,MichielThe Netherlands

Hi Everyone! I have an automation that is set to find records in a certain view and send them an email. I know when in testing Airtable will only show the first 10 records, but it is also completing the automation for the first 10 records as well and right now that view has about 18 records in it. Any advice on whats going on with it? 

Yeah, we can turn a single-select status-like field into kanban view workflows for teams. Got it.But how to add more info for each of these kanban workflow steps? To document the workflow, to give team member easy access to "what should I do at this step?" Links to related assets, templates, full docs, Loom videos etc?Yeah, you can do a 2 table approach, where you have a more robust "Steps" table instead of a single-select "status" type field. But then you lose the ability to have a "steps as kanban columns" view.How do you all build card-moving kanban views that also act as helpful process deocumentation for each of those steps?thanks!

Hi!I used to embed a regular gallery view in my WordPress web site but I did not like how the title of each card (primary field) where always cut off. I tried creating an interface design of the same gallery, embed it, and I really liked the result. Titles were visualized in its complete form and the whole thing looked better and cleaner.The thing is that for some reason, the mobile version of the embed gallery interface came out grayed with a message saying "viewport too small to display the gallery element". I checked out the embed code and it was basically the same for both for the regular gallery view and the gallery interface. Nontheless, the regular gallery view showed in the mobile version of the website and the gallery interface not. If anyone has an idea or suggestion on what is causing this and how to solve it I'd appreaciate it.  The iFrame code:<iframe class="airtable-embed" src="https://airtable.com/embed/appPRfMipHQgdzhMu/shrJYeU4ylrN3M1v8" frameborder="0" onmousewheel
