I wanted to share what I figured out looking for a way to run an automation at a scheduled time. First, create a helper table named Automation Trigger with 3 columns: Name (type: Single line text) Run At (type: Date, with time field included) Record (type: Formula, expression: RECORD_ID()) For each automation you want to schedule: Add a row with a unique descriptive name Add a view with a filter matching only the one record added above (Name is …) Add an automation: Choose trigger: When record updated Select table: Automation Trigger Select view: the one matching your automation intent Select the Run At field. Run test Add an action according to your needs Finally, the scheduling piece. You’ll need Integromat or Zapier. Zapier allows to schedule a task only at a selected hour. Whereas Integromat is much more flexible. For example, you can schedule an action at regular intervals. Connect Integromat to your Airtable account Select Update a record action Select your base and t
Hello everyone,I’m looking to build a matching engine that will compare records across two different tables (that have the same structured fields) and identify matches i.e. when there is a complete or partial overlap of the specified fields. The objective is to create relationships between records that are similar and then display these on a Softr page (similar to Amazon’s widget “customers who bought this item also looked at this”).Who has experience and short-term availability to support me? Please reach out directly.
Do you have an Airtable workspace with multiple important company bases? You can backup up multiple Airtable bases at once with On2Air Backups - without having to add the On2Air Backups extension to every single base. Every On2Air Backups plan (except Starter) can back up multiple Airtable bases. Check out this 3 minute video on how to create a Backup Project :small_red_triangle_down: You can also read our knowledgebase article: How to Back Up Multiple Airtable Bases with a Backups Project

Hi everyone. I’m curious if anyone is interested or knows how to make visualisations (bar, line etc) from a record or a subset of records/linked records but not the whole table. Cheers,
Data Fetcher is a free Airtable extension that lets import data from anywhere into Airtable with no-code. And you can now run Data Fetcher requests using webhooks! This means you can run a request when a form is submitted, e.g. to enrich the record with Clearbit info, when a record is updated or created and lots more. Install the Data Fetcher extension here: Data Fetcher - Apps - Airtable Marketplace Check our the webhook guide here: Run request using webhook - Data Fetcher Help Center
There’s a sound doing the rounds on TikTok of American comedian, Steve Harvey, laying out his formula for success in the realm of mens’ suits. He claims that from 5 colours of suits (matching jacket and trousers) and 3 colours of shirts, you could make 75 combinations because everything goes with everything else (subjective and outside the scope of this post). Thought I’d see if he pulled this number out of thin air or not and test my JavaScript at the same time. Here’s the base I made, using the web search function on attachments to pull in some pics and a scripting block to iterate through all the options and create the matching outfits. Here’s my little script for those interested / want to grimace at my code; let articlesTable = base.getTable('Articles') let outfitsTable = base.getTable('Outfits') let allArticles = await articlesTable.selectRecordsAsync() let jackets = allArticles.records.filter((article) => article.getCellValueAsString('Item') === 'Jacket') let trousers = all

Can’t find anything about it, so research lead to this. Airtable iOS app use url-scheme like: airtable:///tableID/recID You can use it in iOS Shortcut app for custom scenario, just open link with “Open x-callback URL” For example, I copy contacts from airtable to “google contacts” via Zapier and sync it with iPhone. I add recID to every contact, so I can quickly find any in spotlight and open in airtable app

Hey everyone, Founder of Pory here! Its been a while since I last posted and wanted to share a quick update on what’s possible for people looking for solutions to provide external users (not on Airtable) access to view and edit information from Airtable. With Pory, you can set up an app or portal (whatever you like to call it) in 5 steps with permissions for different user groups and pages. Excited to see if we can help or continue developing the platform to support a broad range of use cases. :slightly_smiling_face:
Hi, We’ve been using AT for a couple years and would like to see the total amount paid to vendors per job. Currently, we have the following tables within a Base: Orders (1 record per job) Clients Vendors On the Orders table, each job includes the following fields: DOS Client Name Vendor(s) [multiple select field] (each job can have 1 to many vendors depending on scope) Client Invoice # (manually entered) Vendor Invoice amount Paid (manually entered and separated by / if more than one vendor hired) I would like to have a field that adds up the total vendor payments per record/job. This can be done by entering Vendor Invoice info into a separate table (Vendor Payments) or some other way that is simple/effective. My goal is for our AR person view our Invoice No. and all vendors associated with that Invoice No. in separate records in order to enter their invoice amount per record/Job. Thanks in advance Juliet
Imagine being able to train machine learning models from the data on Airtable and get the predictions and forecasts of the models directly on an Airtable base. No-Code-ML predictions. Check this issue on GitHub, where I am proposing MindsDB to create an integration to Airtable.

Hey community, I am planning to do an integration with Airtable for our analytics software, but I can’t really retrieve column stats without using metadata API, or is there any other workarounds that I am not aware of? Here is what I want List of bases and tables within bases Fields (with types) of each tables Option values for Single Select/Multi select fields This is what I’ve been using and this is not really providing me the information I need GitHub - josephbestjames/airtable.py: Python interface to the Airtable's REST API Thanks :slightly_smiling_face:
After months of development and testing the AirPower app is live in the Shopify app store. AirPower syncs Shopify store data bi-directionally with Airtable. A purpose-built app, it understands the Shopify data model and all its restrictions, can do things that generic sync services (e.g., Zapier) just can’t do, and can be deeply customized. So far we’ve been blown away by the use cases our beta stores have come up with. There is just so much that Shopify store owners can leverage Airtable to do, improving their productivity and lowering costs (you need fewer apps). Some of the Shopify-centric use cases that Airtable is perfect for include: You no longer need a separate app to modify metafields You can bulk update products, variants, collections, etc. You can link Shopify data with data from other services in one place (e.g., sync email marketing system data via zapier, or update orders in Shopify with tracking information) You can perform sales and customer analysis without needing a

Airtable Group Voting / Ranking Tool - Airtable Universe We needed a quick ranking tool to evaluate artists for a music festival. In previous years we sifted through emails or attempted to use spreadsheets.... I just made my first contribution to Airtable Universe. This is a simple tool but could be very useful in many situations where a small group needs to review and rank a batch of submissions. I built this to rank our tweener artists for a festival but it could be used for any type of curation or voting process.
Hey everyone, Excited to share a new tool we just built for Airtable - Sync Inc (syncinc.so). With a couple clicks, we’ll setup a hosted Postgres database containing all your Airtable data. We keep your database in sync in real-time. All you have to do is connect to it with your favorite SQL client, programming language, or app. We used Airtable to power a volunteer organization we helped start at the beginning of this year. We loved how quick Airtable was to get up and running. But while we liked all the cool features for our volunteers, we missed the power of SQL on the back-end. And when we wanted to extend our base by building external apps on top of it, we ran into limitations with Airtable’s API (hello, filterBy). While Airtable looks like a database, you can’t query it like one. With Sync Inc, you get the best of both worlds. You can keep using Airtable exactly as you do now. But unlock the flexibility of a SQL database behind the scenes. You can try it out totally free here: h
A while ago, my boss asked if it was possible to set up an automated tip of the day. His idea was to have an Airtable base with a list of tips and use Make to grab one each day and post it into Slack. I’d already come up with my own auto-numbering system in Airtable, and I knew this would be key to getting what we wanted. I set about it with the following goals in mind. Post only one tip each day. Keep track of the tips posted. Keep track of the tips ready to post. Make it simple enough for anyone to add a new tip. Make it possible to re-order the tips. Make it possible to put a tip back in the queue for reuse. We’ll need two tables for our base, and a linked field between them. Table 1 - List, part 1 We’ll call our first table ‘List’, and our second table ‘Queue’. For the ‘List’ table, we need the following fields: Short Name (Single Line Text) Techtip Text (Long Text) Next (Rollup with a calculation) Posted (Checkbox) Timestamp (Formula) Queue (A link to a single record only) Tim
Hi All, We’re migrating an ~25,000 item database and we’re having issues with the best set up for our needs. Once we get the structure, we’d also like to work with someone on how to maximize inetgration for notifications to customers, vendors, and integration with QuickBooks Online. Thanks!
Hi all! I wrote this script a couple of weeks ago and it’s been extremely useful for me, so I thought I’d share it here :smiling_face_with_halo: The script will find any “broken” fields - the ones that have the little red triangle next to the name - in your base, then display the field name, table, and any applicable field description. There’s no need to change anything at all (unless you want to, of course). All you need to do is copy and paste the below into the scripting app, and click run :slightly_smiling_face: const config = input.config({ title: "🚨 Broken Field Report", description: "This script will find and display the table, field name, and description (if available) of all broken fields in the base.", }); let title = "🚨 Broken Field Report"; let baseName = base.name; /**********************************************************************************************************/ await main(); /**********************************************************************
