Base Design

I was surprised not find any documentation on how to move a table to another base in a workspace. Is this not a supported function? I realize I can export and reimport but that is clunky and I expected a built in option for this.

Hello Community! Happy New Year! I’m trying to build an inventory table and there’s just a small detail that I cannot figure out… It’s easy to use a rollout field to add and substract items, but we monthly manually count the inventory and update any differences… how would you do that? I have a form where staff inputs product sales and buys, including a checkbox to mark that the quantity is not to be added/substracted but it’s the current inventory level. Any clues? Thank you so much!!

Hi, I have a requirement that needed to be solve by using (as if a) store procedure. I going through list of app available and didn’t find any, the closes one is scripting but I aware the script only can be run manually. I need something like scripting but can be trigger by front end. Any suggestion will be really helpful, thanks in advance.

Hi folks! I have a table that lists some projects, with a field for the people working on that project. This is linked to a table of people. I’m trying to figure out how I could capture the work individual people do on individual projects (eg. Person 1 spends 50% of his time on Project A, and 50% on Project B, Person 2 spends 100% of her time on Project B). The project column in the people table shows all the projects on one line. Would appreciate any guidance you can offer. (I come from a SQL background but struggling to get my head around how to do this in Airtable. Thank you for being patient!)

@Bill.French , thanks for the recommendation on my last post. I am unable to reply to the thread I created so I am starting a new one. How could I get in touch with @openside Dan?

Hello, We now use Airtable for free to administer the articles for our magazine. However, we now intend to market the magazine electronically using airtable pro. After payment, a member or collaborator will receive a read-only invitation whereby he or she, depending on the membership, will be given the choice to access these topics and / or volumes for one or more subjects and / or one or more years. In other words, he or she can only access certain parts of the workspace. Can that be achieved with a Pro version?

Good afternoon, I am wondering if there is a way to copy all the fields from one table into multiple tables in the same project. For example: I have multiple stores in each state. So each state will be its own table. I want the fields (the top row) to be the same for each state. In a excel spread sheet I can copy the top row and past it into additional sheets in the workbook. Is there a way to do that in Airtable. I hope i explained that correctly. Thanks so much.

I’d like to make a filterByFormula API request within Airtable to return a list array of record IDs that match my query based on the field inputs in a record from a separate table. Ideas? It’s similar to the Vlookup discussion.

I am creating a base that has 4 different tables. ‘Books,’ ‘Authors,’ ‘Themes,’ and ‘Quotes.’ I want all of these tables to be linked. My current issue is with the ‘Quote’ and ‘Theme’ table. When I enter a new quote, I enter the book, author, and theme. When I go to the ‘theme’ table, it shows the quote but is not linking with the ‘Book’ and ‘Author’ tables, meaning that I have to go in and manually add the book and author in the ‘Theme’ table. Why does this information not transfer from the initial entry on the quote table? Thanks in advance for the assistance! -Erin

Hi Airtable community, I have a basic table for my content calendar base. In the simple table, I am categorizing each article we publish by Genre using the Single Select feature. I need to figure out a percentage formula that breaks down the total number of articles by genre and reflected in a percentage breakdown. In other words, I’d like a column that list, for example, 20% Rock Articles, 50% Rap Articles, 20% Pop articles. Here’s how I have my table set up now. Any suggestions now how I should begin this?

Does AIRTABLE allow for pausing a form and going back to complete? I found a comment from 2017 but wanted to check in now for status of change on this ask. Need some forms to be programmable to pause and return. thanks, M. Trigueros

Hi there We have a two-step job application process via two forms. Is there a simple way to merge them together once they have both been submitted? Thanks Neil

HI there, I am trying to set up a music library and would like to use the standardised music ontology that exists: (musicontology.com / https://github.com/motools) Is there a way of using an existing schema and importing it in to airtable to create the relational database without having to recreate it by hand?

Hello community! I may be in over my head but so far I love the way Airtable organizes things but can’t get it to work for me yet. I am a producer and have an ecommerce website and sell about a dozen items online using Webflow. I am trying to set up a base to help me track my sales and inventory and because some of my products come in different sizes and colors and I am having a real hard time extracting the pertinent information from my imported orders CSV file and organizing it so that I can use it. Here is a screenshot of my imported table, maybe I just need the right formula? Thanks in advance.

I am a newbie and would LOVE to learn from your journey. I got to the first “try this” in the user documentation and I struck a brick stop sign. If you are in a generous mood, please contact me. Thanks!

I’d like to have a colorful to do list. Something like Cool Memo & To Do Tasks Colourful Reminder Notes - Apps on Google Play except the ability to color the background of each field as well as all the other stuff. I’ve done some research and cannot find an app or a Windows program like this. Sometimes black text on a white background is too harsh on the eyes. Excel has very nice fill colors, for example. Thanks!

I am trying to set up a base for customs declarations one field is customs category which is a single select field. I would like the adjoining field which is customs code to automatically populate with the appropriate code based on which customs category is selected. It appears some sort of linked field/lookup is required but I am a novice and cant figure it out

Whereas I am happy to create a nice overview by “gallery” view, I struggle now to show everything I would like to see there: with a link field - multiple records allowed - the gallery view shows only one line and not all content. How can I enforce the display of the whole content in the gallery view (and not only after double click on one card)?

I’m developing a real estate website focused on condo buildings in the Washington, DC metro area. I’m housing the data in AirTable and via Zapier, it will create/update pages in WordPress. Two of the tables I have are for [condo] Buildings and Metro [stations]. The Metro is the subway system in Washington, DC. There are roughly 2500 condo Buildings and 100 different Metro stations. A Building will be near zero or several Metro stations. In the Building table, there are 3 fields that contain the names of Metro stations that are: Field 1 - within a 1/4 mile Field 2 - between 1/4 to 1/2 mile Field 3 - between 1/2 to 1 mile Each of the fields can have 0 to several Metro station names. An example would this abbreviated record for the building Turnberry Tower: Building Name: Turnberry Tower Field 1: Rosslyn Field 2: Courthouse, Pentagon, Virginia Square Field 3: Metro Center, L’Enfant Plaza I would like to relate eac

So I am trying to make a table where we have all the different products we sell on a weekly basis. At the end of the week I want to input the number of each product sold under that products field. That’s the easy part I think. But how do I enter new numbers each week while not erasing the old ones while simultaneously adding the numbers I put in every week to a master table that just shows the number of products sold by each rep.

Hi, I’m building out a base to track plant inventory in a nursery. The way it should work is I receive plant material, and assign values to several fields in a Table called “Receiving” Once the material is added to the system, an automation adds it to my main “Nursery Inventory” Table Here’s where I’m stuck. Let’s say I order 500 seeds, I plant 100 of them, 98 of them sprout. then they go into “hardening” phase. while in that phase 5 of them get sick and need to be quarantined, another phase. In the end we sell 97 of the original 100. I want to record the receipt of the 500 seeds, subtract 100 from that, hold them in a phase/location for a period of time, subtract 5 from that and move them to a “sick phase”, move the remaining 95 to a third location/phase, add 2 back to the 100 in the 3rd phase, and then ultimately record that we sold 94 of the 100. Then with the remaining 400 seeds, I want to do it all over again. Basic

I run an acting school- and have a google drive folder full of about 1500 scripts. I’ve created an index of those files with links to them (in a google extension), then imported that list into airtable. We then went through and painstakingly added searchable info and a clickable button for each entry. So now we have a sharable view that students can search by age, gender, genre, etc. But we continually have new scripts coming in…and I’d love to skip the step of manually indexing the new scripts and pasting that into the airtable. Using a form is too tedious for each individual script we get in (cause it’s a lot) Is there a way to connect an airtable to Google Drive so that it automatically dynamically INDEXES a google drive folder (with LINKS to each individual file). That way when we get new script we could just drop them in the google folder (and add searchable data down the road into the proper airtable row) OR- is there an easy way to ba

I’m new to AirTable, but have been a FileMaker developer for many years, and I’m trying to figure out the AirTable way of doing things. I wrote a simple time tracking application and I would like to create invoice line items from each of the time slips. If I’m creating an invoice for a client, I want to find all of the time slips that haven’t been invoiced previously and create an invoice line item for each one of them. I realize that I could use the time slips table itself, but I might want to combine some, change descriptions or otherwise alter them and I want the invoice to be independent and “locked” after they are sent. I know how I would do this in FileMaker, but what is the best way to do this in AirTable. You can assume that each invoice line item would be filled with the Date Created, Customer, Product, Description and Time Worked.

Hi! I’m new to Airtable and without much programming skills. This is what I need to do: I have a column with company URLs I’d like to automatically fill another column with favicons from those URLs Is there an easy way to do this?
