Did you know Airtable custom interfaces could generate SOUND 🎸🎸🎸?For sure, I didn’t. In fact, when thinking about what to build for the AT Community-Led Hackathon, I tried to find something that would really take Airtable to its limits.Something that shouldn’t be possible (and I could always go back to basics for my final submission). And… that’s how I came up with this version of Howie’s Rock Show. Think Guitar Hero, but running in Airtable.First Omni prompt:Create three buttons, assign different sounds to each. They should reproduce their sound when clicked.That actually worked (in one shot)!!!!So… I went all in. Great db architecture makes this so much fun: I created a Songs table, a Song Notes table (my Airtable version of the score/sheet music), and a Plays table.The Songs table includes fields such as BPM.The Song Notes table includes fields such as Note Duration.Then I just spun up this version (which is definitely not the final one!). How is your build coming along? If you d

I have been testing out the recent Display names for linked records feature and realized that there is a flaw in the design although Support confirmed that it was working as intended. What I’m seeing:The linked record picker correctly shows the configured display name.The linked table’s Primary Field is populated for all records.Visibility conditions evaluate correctly at runtime.However, when configuring Visibility Conditions on forms or record detail layouts, the selected linked record values appear as “Unnamed” in the configuration UI. You can search for the ‘Display Name’ that you configured in the field during configuration but after you select those values, you get ‘Unnamed’. From my experience Unnamed is when a record has no data in the primary field but in my scenario it does. It only displays the Unnamed when you enable the ‘Show display name instead of primary field’. Impact:It’s not possible to review, audit, or troubleshoot visibility logic, because the conditions are unrea

Ever since Airtable changed their Attachment URL expiry window to 2 hours, I had to setup automations using Make to upload files to S3.This worked great, but I recently build a custom extension to get this to work without using Make.So, I started building an Airtable extension to bridge this gap. The goal is to keep it all inside the Airtable UI (see the screenshot of what I have so far): You select your attachment field. The extension mirrors the file to a permanent bucket in the background. It writes the non-expiring CDN URL back to a field of your choice. I’m still polishing this, but I wanted to see if anyone else would actually find this useful compared to the current Zapier/Make methods.Is "reduced friction" enough of a reason to switch, or are most of you happy with your current S3 setups? If there's enough interest, I'll keep pushing to get this ready for a public release.

I tested out Superagent today and this is what it created as a Super Report based on the prompt below. https://superagent.com/website/f383953b-b7e7-40c9-b247-6db19cd35539_stored_entitiesVery Cool! The interactive graphics are interesting.  Prompt: I'm interested in creating a skateboarding video series on YouTube. I've gotten pretty good at mini-ramp combos and I want to make a series where I complete a difficult trick and add graphic overlays that match the styles of popular video games. Then the audience can guess which game the style is from to create engagement. I'm interested in research about creators who make similar content. What can I bring to to the table to make this creative unique? 

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 view and sync it to the new baseClick ‘Share and sync’ Click ‘Sync data to another base’ Toggle on ‘Allow data in this view to be synced to other bases’ Optional

Hi everyone! I’ve been testing out Superagent to see how it can streamline our operations at Nicat, and the results are game-changing.The Use Case: As a co-founder, I often need to synthesize data from multiple tables—linking project milestones, resource allocation, and budget burn rates. Traditionally, this required complex rollups or manual formula building. I wanted to see if Superagent could act as a "Virtual COO" to give me instant health reports.The Prompt I used:"Analyze the 'Project Milestones' and 'Budget' tables. Identify any projects that are currently over 70% through their timeline but have utilized less than 30% of their allocated budget. Provide a summary of potential bottlenecks and suggest an updated resource allocation plan to ensure we hit our Q1 targets."The Result: Superagent didn't just pull the numbers; it identified a specific project at Nicat that was stalled due to a pending documentation phase. It suggested reallocating two engineers to a secondary high-prior

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 still in Airtable. But what I initially b

I’ve made no secret of my scepticism regarding AI reliability. But this week, SuperAgent might have officially changed my mind. 🤯I’ve been back in the "vibe coding" lane within Airtable; the Omni upgrades of late are producing some stunning interface results. Now it was time to test out SuperAgent. I fed it a dataset I know inside out: the Product Ops Confidential Product Operations 2025 Salary Survey. I asked for a comprehensive report focusing on location, role grade, experience, and company size. The prompt was not much more than that (I did ask it to refine 3 items after the first run: Add in cautions on segments with low responses, make a GBP version as well as the USD version, and correct where one of the role types stood in the hierarchy). The results? I’m "SuperImpressed." 😅🫡 Depth & Logic: It handled nuanced prompts, like flagging where low response counts might skew conclusions.📈 Statistical Rigour: It surfaced insights I hadn't even spotted in my own dashboards.⏩ Spe

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 we can push the necessary information out to where it needs to go, even with brute force. We’ve conside

I'm Kevin, founder of TypeFlow. We help Airtable users generate and e-sign PDFs automatically.Until now, our tool required Google Docs for templates. It works well, but we kept hearing: "I'd use this, but my company doesn't allow Google integrations."So we built Template Builder - a visual HTML editor inside TypeFlow. You design your template, map your Airtable fields, and generate PDFs. No Google account needed.What it does: Drag and drop editor Dynamic tables that grow with your linked records Nested line items E-signature fields built in 20+ pre-built blocks (invoices, contracts, certificates) If you've been looking for a way to easily generate documents from Airtable without Google, happy to answer any questions.Check this link to learn more

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.

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

Really impressed by an initial test use case! From a basic prompt on a very broad topic - Changes Over Time in the UK Pay TV Market - the AI generated sections and market analysis were on point and factually accurate in nearly every area - a vast improvement on other common AI tools.More impressive still was the quality of the final report - the interactive visualizations are way ahead of anything else I’ve trialled to date. It’s useful to see the sub agent tasks and reasoning, data sources etc.I managed to make a couple of corrections to reports with further prompts, although even a simple text change seemed to take a few minutes (I’d be curious how many credits a simple change like this would take). An ability to make manual changes to the reports to quickly tweak would be great - perhaps this is do-able via the download option but as yet I’ve been unable to get the .json files to recreate the web based report (probably due to my own lack of knowledge in this area, but a “how to” gui

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 Certificate of completionour website: https://www.typeflow.us/e-signatureIf you have any question feel free to reach out to me

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• Each item has images, categories, and usage across multiple projects

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," now allowing the record t

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: Pipedrive, HubSpot, Copper, Mailchimp, Klaviyo, Brevo, GetResponse, Salesforce, MailerLite, ActiveCampaign, Constant Contact.  I’d love to hear what you think — happy to share more screenshots if helpful.
