Hi there! I have a big table with business founders, and I’m looking for a method for new records to auto-complete the gender field by searching the same first name in the table and looking up the gender.
How can it be done using automation?

Hi @Vadim_Ciobanu1,
This should be easily accomplished, but what will you do if the first name is shared by more than one gender option? Is there a more unique way of looking up the person, like an email address?

Are the records being created from a Form, coming from another site, or are users entering the new record right into Airtable?
