ssues with error notifications in automations.

Unfortunately, this is one of the strangest things about Airtable.

For each automation, ONLY ONE PERSON in your entire organization can receive the error notifications for that particular automation.

And which ONE PERSON is that?

It is the person who last “TURNED ON” or last “UPDATED” that particular automation. 🤷🏻‍♂️

So, if you want to be the person who receives the error notifications for all of your automations, you need to manually go into each one of your automations and turn them off & on again.

Since you were the last person who turned each automation off & on, you will be the person who receives the error notifications for each automation.

However, this is only a temporary fix.

As soon as somebody else updates one of the automations in your base, they will then become the person to receive the error notifications for that particular automation.

This is never the behavior that anybody would want to have for their automations, so be sure to email support@airtable.com to ask them to please improve this behavior.

In the meantime, if you’d like a much better way of creating advanced automations, and you’d like to have perfect control over your error notifications, you can recreate your automations using Make’s advanced automations for Airtable.

Make gives you much more advanced automations than what Airtable natively offers, and Make also integrates with thousands of other apps as well.

If you’ve never used Make before, I’ve assembled a bunch of Make training resources in this thread. For example, here is one of the many different ways that you could instantly trigger a Make automation from Airtable.

Thank you for your reply.
Is there really no way to prevent any notification from being sent?
Also, what's surprising is that the person receiving the notifications is just a regular user who is not supposed to have created or updated the automations.

There is no way to prevent the error notifications from being sent.

If your user is a “Creator” on your base, they will have the ability to create/update automations.
