I need to restore, or more exactly, copy part of a snapshot into the base we are currently using. I realize Airtable's intented way of restoring is just to go on using the snapshot instead of the latest version, but this is not possible in this case because there are too many extensions, apps and syncs connected to it + we haven't stopped using it .Details and difficulties disclaimer:The base is a very complex BOM with thousands of records made of different combinations of hundreds of records from 4 or 5 other nested tables where all the names/primary records of all those tables are a formula composed of abbreviations of those linked records. What happened is that I lost data from one of the innermost of those nested tables and that changed the formula names of the parent records, so I can't match them to their copy in the snapshot by finding each by name. The record ids in the snapshot are different than the original, so no api or copy paste met

Hello Airtable Community!I'm excited to share something I've been working on - a new Airtable extension called Ask Airy. This extension is designed to give you a more intuitive way to search and interact with your Airtable data with AI.Check it out on the extensions marketplace.Ask Airy augments your Airtable search capabilities with AI, enabling you to search for records using natural language.But Ask Airy is more than a search tool — it also serves as a data consultant. You can ask questions about your Airtable data, and it will find and analyze the most relevant records for your question, and respond just as a human data analyst would!Ask Airy can be especially useful for bases with lots of text data.To use Ask Airy, you'll need a license (free trial included) and an Ope

Hi all, I've just launched DocsAutomator v2, an all new & improved DocsAutomator version to make creating PDFs from Airtable data once again easier & more powerful. The following features are now added:- PDF preview: PDFs can now be previewed straight from the app which doesn't count as a created document on the user's documents quota.- View selection: You can now select views on linked tables for filtering & sorting.- Referencing by id instead of names: DocsAutomator now references Airtable fields by id, so their names can be changed without breaking things.For more, please check out the following video: https://youtu.be/kYtHSNJucPI or visit docsautomator.co and test things for yourself 🙂Of course feel free to reach out anytime!Best,Rupert&n

To all Airtable employees, I kindly urge you to consider going back to your old homescreen design. The new homepage is terrible - it's confusing, disorganized, and requires too many clicks to access my workbases. The previous version was much simpler and easier to use. Please listen to your users and bring back the user-friendly interface we loved

Hello. I am new to airtable. I have been using it for about a week now. I used the rollup field few days ago and it worked very well. Since yesterday I have been trying to use it but I get the same error message"Sorry, there was a problem creating this field. The options are not valid."I have the fields linked to another table but I don't get why it isn't working.

Is anyone here a partner with Airtable? If so, what are the conditions for this and what do they pay the most attention to?

I am unable to find any 'Duplicate Base' option in my base dropdown (accessed by clicking the three dots). The only option available is 'Slack Notification.' What steps can I take to troubleshoot this issue?

Hello,I'm recording international transport orders in Airtable, which require an origin and destination location at the city level. I have linked tables with cities, states/provinces, and countries, just like the CRM template by AirTable. When using a form view directly on the base table, I just add the City and the picker will display the related states and countries.  I also created a form as an interface, but the city picker won't show other fields from the City table. Is there a way to show other data associated with the City when selecting it in an Interface form?

Hello, all,I just finished working on a task management Airtable base called Sort Stack.

Hey all, thanks a lot for any help on this… Right now we are manually tracking the performance of TikTok sounds (# creations) and TikTok posts (likes, comments, shares) on AirTable and displaying them on a front-end for our clients on a daily basis. Since this is a manual process, we often miss a day or two in reporting which distorts the results reported on our front-end. In order to feel comfortable putting the front-end app in the hands of our clients at scale I would need to somehow automate the scraping of this data such that I know its going to get recorded every day without fail. Does anyone know how this this type of data scraping works? I am looking to hire a consultant to help us set it up. Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi there,Probably many of you experience this situation when after getting good grasp of Airtable, you end up using it progressively for ... everything.  Even when people tell you there are better tools, you should use instead.BackgroundThere is a great React project Remotion, which I wanted to try for a while. At the same time I also wanted to generate some shorts for my YT channel.  To little surprise, I ended up using Airtable as a backend.  What it doesI ended up with a tool that creates video out of template + content defined inside Airtable. Here is example of video:How it works

Hello all,I have a database with a list of records representing people that are uploaded every month with new people coming in and people going out.Each record (people) is assigned to a group of 5 people to share ideas and experience. I did the first repartition where People (ie records) are assigned to specific group but I am stumbling on the automation of the process.The idea is that now, every time someone is coming in, I can automaticaly update its record with the group he or she is assigned to (meaning assigned to the first group with less than 5 people in it).I tried numerous formulas and automations without success...did anyone have any suggestion on how I could do so ?Thanks for your help !Paul 

Can some one help me my database cant load sadenly this is the error bellow its have only 600 records.  Error: pglv8uEgB7xXZ8QWq

I'm not sure if this is the best place to post this or not. I highly recommend that anyone who is in need of an art proofing solution or a document approval solution checks out Onalu. I was surpised at how long I had to look for a solution for proofing art, I thought would have been previously developed! Onalu is still in beta so they have been extremely helpful with any questions I have had and they have been making videos for any problems I have come across. Here's the link to their Product Walkthrough for more details:https://onalu.notion.site/Product-Walkthrough-333ab6214dd44968ab05906a9c322bf8 

Hello allmy group have access to two forms in a base. Usually, they have to go to the base then the form and click on Open form. For four days now the Open form tab has disappeared for all users except the collaborators who have admin access. So the title of the form is still visible for them but they can't open it through the tab and have access to the form. I have attached evidence, one example of the interface for normal users and one for the admins. Can you please help me fix it

After spending the entire day trying to figure out on my own, I have decided to employ some help!I have a form setup where my techs can upload info and photos that populate a filtered view. Once the form is submitted, it triggers an email to be sent to my inbox with all of the attached photos. It ONLY works when done on a phone and does not work when the form is completed on a regular browser. If done on a desktop the automation fails. Additionally, when the form is completed on the form, only some of the photos are attached in the automated email. The end goal here is to then take this email and have PowerAutomate or Zappier to load it into my OneDrive.Thanks,Ben

tl;dr version: A demonstration base offering three approaches to formatting numbers or numerals while providing ‘pretty-print’ formatting (e.g., currency indicators, thousands and decimal separators, and so on). Allows for non-US separators and decimals, as well. The third table supports parentheses for negative values, right-aligned output with a specified number of columns, and more. A while back, in response to this query, I started on what I thought would be no more than a half-hour’s task of hunting down some code I’d written, giving it a quick polish, and slapping together a reply. Two months later… Here is a demonstration base that includes ‘pretty-print’ routines for long numbers and currency amounts. As you may have already discovered, when conv
