Automations

Hi, Is there a way for me to automate the following:1. a team member is @mentioned2. The @mention would automatically be placed into the "Mentions/Comments" TableThe reason I am trying to do this, is because I am trying to build an interface/dashboard for each team member where they will see their daily calendar; tasks assigned to them and any comments in which they were @mentioned. Hope this makes sense.

So I have two tables the "products" table and the "Wholesale Products Sync", the trigger of this automation is when a field is unchecked in the "products" table I would run this find records action: then I would run this script to delete the record in "wholesale products sync" but I get an error:  

There are a few options to fill in external forms by filling them with the data coming from Airtable. I mentioned earlier Selenium https://www.selenium.dev/ but it has a high learning curve and working with code.There is another more user friendly app Katalon based on Selenium https://katalon.com/ , but still requires working with code and this requires manual loading of CSV.There is Axiom https://axiom.ai/ which is quite good but pricing is quite high to get Make or Zapier integration, although the lower tear works with Google Sheets.And then there is https://browserflow.app/ which works via Google Sheets The main issue I have is how to upload attachment images from Airtable to the web form. I have pictures I want to load to a web-form and that is not easy.Anybody doing something like this? What do you use?

Is there any way to be notified when a base has no new records in a period of time.I'm creating a base where managers need to leave a new record at least once every 30 days.  I want to be alerted when they have NOT left a new record since the last one was posted.Anyone know of a way to do this?

I saw elsewhere that Airtable-limited markdown is available for Automations (possibly only for emails? - not clear), but I can’t seem to get the markdown to work for Slack message automations. :loudspeaker: : The Accounting base in :airtable: has been updated by  [Record (Step 1: Trigger) | Field values | By | Name] with the following release notes: ‏‎[Record (Step 1: Trigger) | Field values | Description ] So that the message in Slack looks like this: :loudspeaker: : The Accounting base in :airtable: has been updated by frozenforum with the following release notes: Created a new Client Companies table Converted Client Company field to be a link to Client Companies Moved company groups to Client Companies table But instead, the Slack message looks like this: :loudspeaker: : The Accounting base in :airtable: has been updated by frozenforumwith the following release notes: 1. Created a new Client Companies table 2. Converted Client Company field to be a link to Client Companies

I am using an automation that uses a script to append a record to another table's linked field. My code is shown below.This is not working however, as the record.getCellValue('Worksheet: BOM") is returning an array that has the format ("string") instead of the format (id: "String"). Is there any way to fix this?This is my error message:No overload matches this call.The last overload gave the following error.Property 'id' is missing in type 'readonly { id: string; name: string; }[]' but required in type '{ id: string; }'.(2769)env.22.d.ts(5964, 43): 'id' is declared here.env.22.d.ts(5959, 5): The last overload is declared here.

Hello Airtable Community,I’m currently working on improving our Airtable system and could use your expertise. We have a setup where participants sign up for trips, and upon signup, we need to automatically generate a billing record. Here's the challenge I hope you can help me solve:We have a "Trips" table with trips that participants can sign up for, and a "Participants" table with a list of individuals who may sign up for multiple trips over time. When a participant signs up for a trip, we need to:Identify the most recent participant who signed up for a trip.Create a record in a "Billing" table that links the participant, the trip, and the cost associated with that trip to generate a bill.The main obstacle is that the participants are existing records, and their signups do not create a new participant record; they're simply linked to another trip. Here’s what we’re aiming for:A fully automated process: From the moment a participant signs up for a trip, the system should identify this

Hello, I would like to know if there is an automation integration planned for deployment on Netlify in the event of a change in the database.Currently, I work with Gatsby and I use Zapier to trigger a build on Netlify with my new data but unfortunately the threshold of 50 tasks is quickly reached during big changes in the development of the website.THANKS.

Hey all I've created an automation where when a form is submitted - a record is updated. However! Sometimes there isn't a record to update, so it needs to be created first. So I need to create a process like this:WHEN a form is submitted AND record exists UPDATE it. IF record doesn't exist CREATE itBut the automation is getting stuck on the first part and fails to run into the second. I've taken a screen shot to show what I mean. How can I fix this?Thanks!

Structure is as follows:Project tab has all of our project records with around 50 fields of project-specific details.Some project records are categorized as "Original Project" and some are categorized as "Revision""Revisions" are linked to their "Original Project"I want to do the following:1. Create a new "revision record"2. Fill out ONLY the fields that will be changing 3. Link the "original project" in the "Original associated project field"4. When that field is updated, I want an automation to run that will copy and paste fields from the original project record to the revision project record, but ONLY for fields of the revision record that are empty.Example:"Original project record" fields/Project info:Unique Project Number: #557 (Autonumber)Customer name: John DoeSolar module: Mission Solar 400WQuantity: 25Inverter: Solaredge 7600kWProject type: Original ProjectAssociated Original project: None"Revision project record" fields/Project infoUnique Project Number: #558 (Autonumber

Hi, I am trying to automate an email message with invoice details for the finance department to create an invoice. For each record (invoice) I have one or multiple sales, invoice lines, so each record will have fields with multiple linked data. In the body of my email I would like to split out these fields by the invoice line (sold item), but they lump together by the fields on one line.Message body build up: Below you can see Sale #1 and Sale #2 with their corresponding fields are clustered on the same line. I need them to be on separate lines with their corresponding fields:Thank you.Best regardsChristopher

Hi, please help me with this automation. For added info, this is created on a Base within a workspace on a Pro plan. All members on this Base are part of this Workspace as creators.I want to assign a record to a member of my team based off another field's data. We operate in several markets (UK, Nordics, US, etc) and different team members work with different regions. When a record is created with a region, I want to automatically assign the relevant team member to that record.I have tried this multiple ways, and the only one that seems to make sense is the following, which isnt working. I have created multiple automations (1 for each market to assign to the right person)Trigger: When a record matches conditionsTable: Table 1Conditions: When market is (market name) - for this example "UK"Step 2: Update RecordTable: Table 1Record ID: "Assigned to | Name"Fields: Assigned to: (appropriate name selected) I continue getting the error "received invalid inputs" which doesn

Using the insert Grid/List of Records into Automation email how can I include more than the Name field of the record,? Similar to what you can do with a Grid in the Page Layout designer? So the result in the email would look like:Name 1 Date StatusName 2 Date StatusName 3 Date Status Again this is a field in the main record that looks up related records that I want a Grid of, but with more details.

Is it possible to query my Airtable bases, add and modify records, etc. using chatGPT-like interfaces. Anyone encountered such a tool?I mean if you can ask human language questions, like "how many records created today?" just for example.

Hi,I have set up a very simple automation. I've created a folder called "Leads Sent" and want any email that is placed there to trigger the creation of a record in my base called "Leads". It works a charm when i test it, both allowing AT to choose the data, and when I manually choose the data. When I turn on the automation and copy any email into the folder, nothing happens. The emails I put in there are a few months old, does that matter, and if so, can I tell the automation to pick any email, irrespective of date, that is new in that folder? Or is there another kink in the system that I am unaware of?I do not want to run this through a 3rd party integration, I want to use AT's own automation, so please stick with suggestions that will help solve that relationship, thanks. Thank you./Christopher

Hey there,I have gone through quite some posts about this topic in the community already, but none seems to solve my problem or maybe I just haven't fully understood how to solve it yet.I have a table "Product stock" and another table "Product catalogue". The product catalogue contains information how many products are in stock by checking via a link and lookup field to the stock table. The link between these table is the product code.However whenever the stock is updated (e.g we have a new product in stock) I have to manually copy the product code from a text column to the link-records field. I would like to automise this step. My approach here is the following:- Trigger: when a record is updated (product-stock)- Actions:Find records: in product catalogue, where product code isn't emptyUpdate records: in product catalogue: Record ID: from find records - selected the link field product-numberfields: link field product-number, select fields to show product number (text field)When I

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.
