I faced this problem as we had to track daily metrics for each employee, which ended up generating dozens of records a day.  This became a problem pretty quickly for obvious reasonsAs a workaround, I ended up setting up a system to archive the old data while leaving the original base alone, and the steps are pretty much:Create a new base for archiving purposes Create a synced view and sync it to the new base In the sync settings, toggle on ‘Leave records when they are deleted or hidden in the source’ Create a heartbeat in the destination base This is important as syncs only happen on bases that have activity on them Set up an automation in the main base to delete the old records---1. Create a new base for archiving purposesI’m pretty sure everyone knows how to do this one, so I’m just going to skip it heh 2. Create a synced v

I’m looking for someone to help a knitting factory here in the UK upgrade their Airtable setup.About eight years ago, I built their Airtable base. It worked great at the time, and they were really happy with it. Then, as they grew, they decided to switch to a more specialised enterprise system because it promised better machine integration.The idea was to slowly migrate everything over to the new system, but it needed quite a bit of tweaking to actually fit how they worked.Fast forward to now, and they’ve realised the new system isn’t really working as promised and desperately want to move back to Airtable.The only issue is that I’m too busy to take on more work myself, and their old Airtable system is quite antiquated. So they asked me to help them find someone solid who could pick up where I left off.There’s definitely a structure that can be reused. Since the other system never fully got up and running, some things, like material stocks, are sti

YES! Yes, yes, yes! They are finally here!!! Airtable is a relational database. As such, it allows you to link records from one table to record(s) from a different table and keep such relationship on both sides.However, there are interesting use cases in which you’d want to link records from one table to records from the exact same table. For example, you might want to have one unique table for Tasks and handle hierarchy between them (e.g. Parent task, and Sub Task(s)).When creating a linked record field to its own table, you would have seen that only one field was created (the one you did manually). You would call this field Child Tasks for example, and link through it the child tasks to any parent task. However, the inverse relationship (backlink) would not be tracked anyway -meaning which are the parent tasks for each child tasks. To such effect we used to have to create yet an ad

Have a gameshow production (semi-professional/educational demo) for digital arts career pathway program high school class in Southern California. Producer/instructor is a 30+ year veteran TV gameshow producer in the US and UK with a background in computer programming and game design. He is my client and I am trying to pull this component of the production together at the 11th hour with our taping scheduled for early September. We’ve already used Airtable to map out a lot of game structure and populate some test data. There are major functional concerns though including data validation and utilizing the data for realtime stage ques, contestant data interfaces, on-stage visuals, or on-screen events in post-production. We need someone that can adapt our Airtable base into a functional, interactive, multi-user gaming system. Or, at this late stage, at least a quick and dirty backend that w

Problem:If you’ve ever tried connecting Airtable with DocuSign through Make.com, you’ve probably realized how little documentation there is—especially about the nuances of how the DocuSign module actually works.

Hola buenos días. Empezamos semana y curiosamente no se carga Aitable. ALguien más con este problema???

Hi, We’re currently running our business using a software package called Squeegee, but we’ve reached the point where it doesn’t allow us to scale effectively. We’re now looking to build stronger internal systems using Airtable and modern automation tools. The goal is to move away from software limitations and create structured, scalable processes that automate individual tasks wherever possible. At this stage, we’d really value an initial phone call to discuss requirements and explore whether there’s a good fit. Ultimately, we’re looking to build a long-term relationship with the right person, ideally on a retainer basis, where work can be carried out as and when required. If this sounds of interest, please let me know your availability for a short call to discuss our requirements and a brief overview of your experience with similar system builds.

Hey guys, I have been using Airtable for a few months now and am curious about potential cross overs to another of my favorite tools, Obsidian. Has anyone done any interesting experiments yet? or have any tips for me?

Airtable has just released a popup to allow cookies on all embed views making my app not usable anymore....Each time I refresh the page, the same popup is displayed !How can I get rid of this popup allowing cookie ?Thank you for your help!

Hi, I use Airtable for keeping an inventory of artworks. I need to be able to pull a PDF of selected records and selected fields, and put our branding at the top. Is this possible? I am wondering if Airtable is not the right programme for us.  Thank you,Beth 

Hi everyone,Many of you generate documents from Airtable (contracts, invoices, NDAs) and need signatures. The typical workflow looks like:Generate doc with TypeFlow (our core product is to automate the document generation with Airtable data). Zapier/Make sends to your favorite e-signature tool Signature collected Zapier brings it back to AirtableIt means 3 software (and subscription) to handle the whole document generation + signature flow. TypeFlow now handles the full loop by adding the e-signature featureAutomate your document from Airtable with TypeFlow Send for legally binding signature (ESIGN, UETA, eIDAS compliant) in TypeFlow Signed PDF automatically back in your base No Zapier, no e-signature needed, no fee per signature.Every signature includes:Audit trail (IP, timestamp, device) SHA-256 document hash

Hi Airtable community!!I run a home staging company based in Boston and I’m looking to hire an experienced Airtable specialist to help me architect and implement a smarter inventory system that connects cleanly to the rest of my business.I have sent a few submissions to people already listed on the Service Partner Page, but I am looking for someone 1:1 to build an ongoing relationship with who can truly advise me on this first goal of getting inventory system in place and then building other uses for it within Airtable. High-level goal:I want my inventory to live natively in Airtable and be easy to select, track, and deploy across projects, rooms, and timelines, without manual duplication or clunky workarounds. I also want my team to be able to scan QR codes so that the inventory is directed to those projects.Current setup and thinking:• Inventory images are stored in Google Drive and already integrated with Airtable• Ea

​🚨 It’s happening again — the second edition of the Airtable Community-Led Hackathon is officially going down. It all started last year with this low key community post, and we had +100 signups for our Nov 2025 event (fully remote).

I have sent this as feedback to airtable, though I don’t expect a useful response. Partially I’m venting here, but I’m also curious about where the rest of the community sits on this (and if anyone “closer” to airtable has meaningful insight).For several years, the airtable user community has complained about the dysfunctionality of the mobile apps. A large reason we invested in building systems with airtable was the mobile apps. For 3 years, we've accepted that it has "quirks," but that Airtable was working on it.However, we've seen very little progress in this space. The apps are barely functional, which has complicated our workflow. We use airtable "in the field." However, it frequently fails to update records (i.e. you create a record, or add text/numbers to a field in the airtable app, only to find out several hours later those changes weren't saved). We constantly have to close and re-open the app to create/edit records that will give us "server errors,

Feature Suggestion: Add a record count to the page interface. This would allow users to see at a glance if there are any results matching their filters, avoiding unnecessary navigation through empty pages.ex,Section XYZ-- New (3)-- Responsive (1)-- MQL (0)-- SQL (5) 

Hi everyone, I wanted to share something we’ve been working on that might help people connecting Airtable with their sales & marketing workflows.We’ve recently (re)launched an Outfunnel integration for Airtable that lets you: Sync contacts from Airtable to your marketing automation tool or CRM. You can segment who gets synced by Table and View.  Changes made in Airtable get synced over 24/7.  We started out syncing traditional CRM (e.g. Pipedrive, HubSpot) with marketing platforms and built the Airtable integration because we saw a growing number of businesses use Airtable as their main CRM. The integration is currently one-way only (from Airtable to the marketing tool or CRM) but we’re planning to make this 2-way soon. Currently supported tools:

Hello! This is a repost from the AI Incubator I was a part of at the end of 2025.I just wanted to follow up on the AI Plays webinar, quite a few people were interested in the custom interfaces but were not entirely sure what they were capable of and how to generate them. Now I can’t find exact prompts, when I’ve been testing I’ve kind of just given a vague explanation of what I’ve wanted the interface to do and then iterated and fine tuned with specific prompts to make changes to the interface. From my understanding, Custom Interfaces use React UI Component which is essentially JavaScript and then uses a Tailwind CSS to control styling and layout. That is the extent of my code knowledge at the moment but its pretty powerful and can make some really pretty interfaces, and aesthetics are my favourite thing to play with 😂. I apologise if this reads as a tutorial, but I thought it was the best way to show how to do it. Once you’ve got the data - I f

This blog post by Airtable recommends using Airtable as a DAM (digital asset management) tool.My company uses Airtable as a DAM, and when I was a consultant, I worked on projects involving using Airtable as a DAM. Airtable's blog article leaves out a few concepts that you should consider if you want to use Airtable as a DAM.- Most DAMs also provide CDN (content delivery network) services. Airtable has stated that it is not designed to be a CDN. The loss of permanent attachment URLs matches the idea of Airtable not being a CDN. If you want to use Airtable as a DAM, make sure that you don't also need it to be a CDN.- Most of the systems that I have built for using Airtable as a DAM involved at least one third-party service, and some use multipl
