Hey, I’m struggling to create an automation that sends an email (to myself) when any record under a field in a specific table is deleted. I thought the ‘When record updated’ trigger would work, but it seems I’d need something more custom. For context, I’m using Airtable as a database for a booking app, and my goal is to receive an email when a user deletes/cancels their booking on the app (this action already deletes the corresponding record in Airtable). Any help is appreciated. Tunmise

Hi,I am needing help with an automation. I am needing to change the status of our guest to moved out when the lease end date has past except for when it status is canceled. 

Hi everyone I have created an automation which sends an email of a list of records from my table at a scheduled time. However there is too many records being shown and would like to change the amount. The number of length is by default at 100 and does not let me edit this number. Can you help me please?

I have this table to track some gym progress.I have a number of updated values for each record, e.g.:for a 1 set of 10 for 245 for b 2 set of 8 for 356and etc.there is also column for tracking the latest update.I need to be able to somehow store the progress/history of this values. So what if i update smth like this:for a 1 set of 10 for 245 => for a 2 sets of 9 for 250i could have bouth record in my baseI'm aware about the Revision history function, although it's not providing acces to the information in the most comfortable wayIs there a way, through some formula/automation/etc. to copy the current record each time i'm updating it? 

Am looking for a developer that can connect our Airtable to DocuMint for automation. Also have additional automation needs that need to be addressed.  Please respond below with email and we will reach out!

I'm new to Air Table and having trouble finding a solution for this. I want to press a button to update a record with some information provided by the user. So on hitting the button I want it to set one field to "Completed" (which is fine), one field to todays date (which the work around seems to be having a formula on the table that this can be grabbed from) and the name of one of our team. Ideally the name of our team member would be selected from a drop down but I would settle for them typing it in somewhere. Is this possible?

TL;DR: what's the difference between 'contains' and 'has any of'?I'm setting up some automations with a 'when a record matches conditions' trigger.When I set my 'find records' trigger to the condition 'has any of' the dynamic value I want to use, I get 'invalid value: when a record matches conditions cannot be converted to an array of string'.When I set the condition to 'contains', it works perfectly.What is the difference between 'has any of' and 'contains'? In natural language the two are synonymous (to my sense of the language, anyway), but I assume there's some important distinction in the underlying code that I do

I'm intending to create a simple AirTable script to record duration of a single status field. In my use case I'm tracking a large number of issues where the status frequently goes back and forth between the multiple status',For example there are multiple status':  open, in-progress, and resolved status. A normal workflow would be non-linear, so a record could go from open to in-progress, back to open, then to resolved then back to open, and then finally to resolved again.open > in-progress > open > resolved > open > resolved.I'd like to track the duration that each record is in each status as well as the cumulative time each record is in each status. This way I could say this record was open for a period of 3 days, in progress for 1 day and it was  in a resolved status two days. In the first table I have several records with a status field and a time modified field as well as other important data fields to help

Hi to all! I am having a problem using Automatization for updating numbers in one table, when some conditions are matching in the other one.In table Bills I need to have an updated (lesser) amount of each bill, when in the table RatenPayment a part of that bill is payed. The Trigger is working (consist of the elements if date of the payment is not empty, and when the amount of the partial payment is given).However, the Action in the Automatization keep showing me error (but it seamd to be such a 'peace of cake')....Thank for ANY kind of a help, I am struggling with it more then a half day.. 

Is there any way we can create custom table, form views using airtable scripting or automations?

Hello, looking for help on how to trigger the update of formula field when a record reaches a condition. My example is the following: I have a "Birth Date" field which contains the birthdate as Date. I have a formula field which calculates the current year "Anniversary Date": DATETIME_PARSE(YEAR(NOW())&"-"&DATETIME_FORMAT({Birth Date},'MM-DD')).How can I trigger the update of this "Anniversary Date" when the record reaches the day after the anniversary? 

Hi,I have a base called "Tasks" where each record has an Assignee.I created a new base called "Timesheet" to enter the time spent on each Task with a form or interface.When a new Timesheet record is associated with a Task record, I would like the Timesheet table to add automatically the Assignee for the Task related to that Time entry.I'm trying to get this done by having an Automation that looks for Timesheet records which have an Associated Task not empty, then finding the corresponding Task in the Task base, and finally adding the same Assignee to that Timesheet record.Ho

Hello!My current data base and forms are connected to Blackbaud and E-tapestry. I'm not fully ready to commit to downloading everything into airtable, but wanted to know if you have seen a successful integration with these systems?For context:I'm creating a speakers Bureau and want my updated information to go into E-tapestry. I would also be pulling reports from e-tapestry to integrate into airtable. The forms on E-tapestry are outdated and clunky, I would much rather use airtable for this.I'm also to look automations where a speaker enters information and we send a thank you email. That is also clunky with e-tapestry. But I still need the data to sync between the two for now. thanks! -Rachel 

Basically we have two workspaces. One is for project management. The other is for accounting. Once the project has been completed, we change it's status to "ready for accounting" which then automatically syncs with the accounting workspace. So no new records are being created in the accounting workspace.We then generate a "price code" based on the company name and the product. The price code reference a price list which is a different table in the accounting workspace. I have nearly all the mechanics of this worked out, but currently have to manually copy/paste from "price code" column to "price" column (see screenshots). I'd like to automate this, but I've had trouble with the tutorials I've seen, and I also don't know what an appropriate trigger would be.Thanks in advance for any help!

Hello. I have a Status field which is “Multiple Select”. I am trying to build an automation that automatically adds “new” to the Status field when a new record is created. However, the Status field may start empty or it may start filled with other options from the “Multiple Select”. I can make an automation that works when the field starts empty (just assign “new”), but this will erase any other options if the field starts filled. If the field starts filled, I can assign “new”,{Status}, but this gives an error when Status starts empty ({Status},“new” also does not work). The error is ‘Failed to construct the value for “Fields”.’ So I cannot account for both at the same time. However, my table will have both cases for new records. Am I missing something about how to concatenate the already selected options with my new option? The work around I have found is to use an additional formula field that either fills “new” or concatenates "new, " to a non-empty field. However I

Hello,I am unable to set up the trigger for an outlook email received.

I have a table with 2 forms.  I set up an automation that is based on 1 of the forms but it's pulling records submitted from both forms.  Anyone else had this problem and found a solution?

I'm trying to create an automation to update a record. I want to change the status of all tasks associated with a sprint to have an "archived" when that sprint is "done".The trigger is based a table called "Sprints Lists" with a condition of "Status: Done".And as an Action I want to edit the "Status" field from a different table called "Tasks Lists" so that the new value of Status is "Archived".I've tested the trigger successfully. However, when I click on the "+" button to select the corresponding Record ID from the "Tasks Lists" table, it only shows the fields from the "Sprint Lists" table used in the trigger. 

HiI have Table 1 with two columns (A and B).On my Table 2, I want to ask airtable to take the Table 2 column A and "read" or match any words to Table 1 Column B and automatically tell me where the matches are instead of linking then having to manually check where the matches are.Is that possible?

I have an automation which sends a slack message at a scheduled time with a list of tasks due that week, sent in formatted single messages for display purposes.It's a repeating action which runs through a list found, but it never runs in chronological due date order and I need the list to appear in chronological order. Airtable has on their guide that it can't guarantee the order of the run and you should consider other options. What would these options be? Help would be much appreciated, thank you!

Hello,We are the company La Nouvelle École, We use Airtable and our old plan was limited to 5,000 automations.As we were going to exceed the limit, we moved to the next plan by buying the next higher offer on March 20th. The next plan was 50,000 automations.And the problem is that the total automation bar remained on the old model.So this problems has stopped our automation system. Someone knows to fix this problems ?
