hey everyone! wanted to share a resource we put together. if anyone here’s thinking about using Airtable as a CMS - here’s how we did it. lmk if you have any questions! :slightly_smiling_face: https://www.whalesync.com/blog/using-airtable-as-a-cms

Does anyone have a super automated process for turning the data in a record into a formatted, multi-page document and then attaching it to the record? Using a button field in the flow would be fine, but I don’t want a new tab created. I don’t mind using Integromat, but want to avoid Google drive modules if possible.

Setting default values on fields has been a long-time request from Airtable users. Set defaults on fields Product Suggestions Simply the ability to set a default on fields other than numeric On a date, the obv

Hello, fellow Airtablers! My company needs a solution for our product and inventory management problems, and we would like to hire one of your bright minds to help make it happen! We are a specialty manufacturer that uses hundreds of individual pieces, parts, and ingredients in the wide range of products we produce. We offer both regular, pre-defined products and custom products to meet customer needs. Many of these products utilize sub-assemblies that are also used in other products. We have some thoughts on how to make something work, but are limited in time and know that one of you will have far more knowledge about Airtable to help us build a solution that works for us now, as well as in the future. Hopeful one of you has the depth of knowledge in Airtable and the breadth of experience in consulting and developing to provide creative solutions to this problem and countless others we haven’t uncovered yet. Thanks! Chris

Hello,I am looking to hire an expert that can help my commercial real estate firm. Below are the notes and scope: I would like to have tables for deal flow of property information, where specific data sets about properties are collected. When the specified data sets are met, they trigger a new record, “transaction/deal” within another table. I would like to have a global view of all transactions and data sets via a dashboard if possible. This would include deals, progress, address, picture of the property via google (if possible). Client facing table that would share only limited data. This would be essentially client investor updates. Table 3: transaction/deal table. This would hold the larger data sets, where it would be toggled by view. I would like to have the ability to follow up with brokers/points of contact via a button, for more “on demand” follow up. Follow Ups: I would like follow-ups to be something I can click a bu

So I’m a little bit “paranoid” and I wanted to backup my Airtable data into Google sheets, because… you never know :slightly_smiling_face: . I used Google Script Apps for this. The script allows you to define one or more tables and views to import along with possible attachments. The script is uploaded on GitHub: GitHub - robiningelbrecht/airtable-google-sheets-backup: This script allows you to backup your Airtable data to Google sheets.

Hi everyone, I have asked support for some guidance, perhaps some examples or white papers on how to deal with Purchase Orders, but so far, no response. So in the meantime, I am hoping to get information from the community. Besides of having couple (or more tables) to store the Purchase Orders and its PO Lines, I need to create the Input form to enter a PO and of course, a print out. I have played with Forms, but I don’t see how to display the master-slave tables so the user can enter as many items as they want. Is this possible in Airtable or does it need to done outside of the environment? Thanks in advance. Robert

Hello, An interesting use case for Airtable can be curating data for others and selling access to it. Curating data can save time for someone, and it might be valuable if the data serves a business goal such as lead generation. There are untapped niches in every kind of data that are still good ideas to pursue, if you make it focused on a specific audience. Airtable makes it very easy to curate and update such data with bases and views. An example to the above is this one, built with Airtable, and made specifically for agencies to find new clients. We’re not affiliated but found this to be a great example to the thesis. If you don’t have coding skills or access to developers, we’ve added a nocode embed capability to our tool SaaSBox, to launch such a curated data service as the above. Airtable does have some limitations for protecting data through a paywall, such that w

Hey all :wave: , we’re really thrilled to be able to share this with you - we’ve just raised our 1st funding round at Codemap! We want to say a huge THANK YOU to the Airtable community for all the support over the past year since our launch - what a journey this has been! Our story so far is just another proof of how game-changing no-code is - keep on building! :raised_hands: With 2021 soon coming to an end, we also wanted to share a helpful resource and a showcase of what our community on Codemap has been working on over the past year and beyond - last week we released the largest curated database of 800+ no-code projects built by experts & teams on Codemap. The builds are categorized by types, stacks, and many more others key parameters, so you can discover what others are building with Airtable and how! Check out the showcase

Hi, I’m an entrepreneur for a growing small business in freight logistics (around $6M in annual revenue) and looking for help implementing airtable in my business.

Hi, I am looking to hire someone who could help me build a few tables for my venture capital firm. I’d also like the person to explain the tables they built, how they built them, etc… so I can have a better understanding of building more advanced tables in Airtable. Here’s what I’m looking to have built: I’d like to have a table that is basically a fully detailed overview of our venture portfolio. This would include, all deals we have invested in, their values, investment amount, estimated fair value, current raised value, logo, contact, blurb about what they do, website, investment date, sector, sub sector etc… Our second table would be a “public” facing table that would have some of the info form table one, but the details would be more limited and anything private wouldn’t go here. this table would be sent out to investors in our updates, or allows investors to check on the portfolio whenever they wanted to see new additions.

Hi all, As I’ve noticed on the community forum it’s a common issue so I decided to share with you our solution on “ How to add a card to a filtered Kanban view for staff member ”. We use Airtable as a project management tool that consolidates financial and operational data. It means we work project based and one or more people work on a project. For planning our work we use Kanban views to followup tasks. For management and time-tracking reasons we want to bundle all tasks from all staff in one database. This results in a filtered Kanban view per staff member. Unfortunately, when you simply filter on a staff member (linked to another table) and try to add a card to the Kanban view, the card will disappear because the staff member is not automagically linked to the card when you add it. Solution Instead of filtering on a linked value, filter on a “Created by” field. Because this is an automated field, the

Hi all, As I’ve noticed on the community forum it’s a common issue so I decided to share with you our solution on “How to add a new record in a view filtered on a lookup value”. We use Airtable as a project management tool that consolidates financial and operational data. It means we work project based and one or more people work on a project. It results in big tables where for example financial data is filtered per project (which is a lookup value from another field). Because this filter is applied on a lookup value, the record disappears when you add a record because it fails to fill in the field automagically. Solution Thanks to the recently introduced nested filtering, we have found a solution which makes use of some kind of “timer”. By filtering on the timer and an automated “Created by” field, this record will stay visible for the user who inputs it. The following steps should be followed:
