TL;DR version: Airtable’s recently added capability to limit linked-record selection to a specific view allows users to incorporate, to a degree, conditional logic. The specifics: ‘Conditional logic’ can mean a lot of things: Any use of an IF() or SWITCH() statement is a form of conditional logic. Here, I’m using it in what’s become an increasingly common manner: to mean the limiting of available options based on an earlier choice. For example, take a look at the following diagram. The user selects one of five categories. Based on that selection, he or she is allowed to choose from a subset of five subcategories, taken from an overall population of 25 subcategories. Thi

Hey everyone! We recently shipped two features for BaseQL that I’m really excited about.For those that don’t know, BaseQL provides a GraphQL API for Airtable that makes it easier to build custom apps with your Airtable data.These new features came directly from user feedback about workflow pain points.TL;DR: You can now query Airtable views directly and have full control over filtering/sorting related records in a single API call.Querying Airtable ViewsBaseQL now supports querying specific Airtable views using the new _view argument. This feature leverages Airtable’s powerful ability to create custom views with specific sorting, filtering, and grouping configurations.Why this mattersMany BaseQL users were manually implementing sorting through rank columns or creating complex filter combinations to match what they had already config

Just returned from Asia's largest Apple ecosystem expo where we showcased AirKit for Airtable. What an amazing experience connecting with so many passionate Airtable users across Asia! The energy was incredible as visitors from China, Korea and beyond stopped by our booth. We were genuinely surprised by how many people are using Airtable for everything from personal projects to enterprise solutions.  Many users shared their frustrations with the slowness and navigation complexity. It was validating to demonstrate how our AirKit app solves these exact pain points by enabling quick record additions and table access through Siri commands and Spotlight search. The conversations were enlightening - we learned so much about how people are using Airtable in different contexts and cultures. Several visitors even showed us their unique Airtable setups! I've created this vlog to

The Long Text field in Airtable is currently way too small. It was previously possible to expand the size of the long text field to make it easier to read…. long text….I wish that they would bring back the option to resize this field so that it wasn’t such a pain to use. If resizing isn’t possible to bring back, then I wish that they would either:1) Expand the default size significantly;2) Allow users to make the long text field full screen; or3) Make the Long Text input box responsive so that it increases and decreases in size based on the amount of long text that is in the field.This would prevent users from having to constantly scroll to see long text in the long text field. We don’t need this to be as feature friendly as a full scale text editor (although that would also be great), but it should at least allow you to easily see the long text that is in this field without having to scroll for hours. It’s a huge pain to u

Hi,UMI FUND are looking for some short term support to improve the functionality of our CRM on AT. We’ve set much of it up and been using it for over a year but have some needs to polish the processes and production of analysis so it works better for us.

Using chatGPT in an Airtable automation. In my use case, the automation triggers on when an Airtable record matches conditions,then follows with 2 actions, run script and update record. Adjust the first part of the promptwith your own use case. Tip: Use chatGPT to help you write a prompt for chatGPT (!) let inputConfig = input.config(); text = `${inputConfig.text}`; var key = "openai-api-key"; var url = "https://api.openai.com/v1/completions"; prompt = "Reword this text to grade 9 reading level: " + text; var gpt = { model : "text-davinci-003", prompt : prompt, temperature : 0, max_tokens : 1024 }; response = await fetch(url, { method: 'POST', body: JSON.stringify(gpt), headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + key, } }); answer= await response.json(); data=answer.choices[0].text; output.set('your-airtable-field',data);

Hi everyone,  I am a Music Supervisor (syncing songs for video games, movies ads…). I am currently using the Microsoft Suite and Google Suite for my business but I am now looking for a tool that can do it all in one platform. Airtable seems to answer many of my user cases and so I am now looking for an Airtable Expert that could set up the templates and automations for me, so I can then populate the templates with my own data. Ideally this person would be UK or Europe based. I would ideally like to work from Airtable’s free plan but can also consider subscribing to the Team tier.  I would need Airtable for 3 main user cases:  1/ CRM:I have different databases of con

Just copy-paste the "script" and start getting responses from gpt-4/3.5, immediately.What can you do with the “script”?You can bring the power of OpenAI language models (GPT-4 and GPT-3.5) to your Airtable base and utilize them to create content for 1000s of rows at once.For example:Generate product descriptions based on several data pointsCreate personalized emails for 1000s of guests based on available dataDo programmatic SEO by creating super-optimized AI contentGenerate content for anything and everything that follo

Hey community !We just redesigned and relaunched Data Fetcher, and I wanted to share it for anyone who might find it useful. What is Data Fetcher? It’s a no-code Airtable extension that pulls data from APIs directly into your bases. Think of it as connecting Airtable to your external data sources without the complexity of coding or leaving Airtable. Why we built it: We kept hitting the same wall: Airtable is great for organizing data, but getting external data in (and keeping it updated) was always a hassle. What it does:Import from any REST/GraphQL API Schedule automatic updates (up to every 5 minutes) Chain requests together into sequences for complex workflows Handle authentication & pagination Transform data as it’s imported

My client just spent 5 minutes raving about how a small fix genuinely improved the quality of life for their staff. So thought to share.They run a medical services biz. For managing charts, appointments, etc., they use "Jane," which is super HIPAA compliant (so no API, of course). For the extra workflows Jane can't do, they export PHI-stripped data to Airtable weekly and also use Asana for patient-specific tasks.The problem? Practitioners in Jane needing to see Asana tasks for a patient had this annoying little dance: copy PatientUID from Jane URL, tab over to Asana, paste, search, pray. Took barely a minute, sure, but multiply that by X times a day... and it becomes a real point of friction in their workflow!So, I figured there had to be a no-code way. Whipped up a super basic Chrome extension using Windsurf (one of those AI builder things – I wanted to explore these AI builders anyway, so good excuse!).It's not going to win any innovati

We have a lot of information to view when we click on a record to view its details. I find myself scrolling up and down a lot looking for the exact group I need. It would be very helpful if there was a way to easily jump to a group in the interface. Or at the very least, make the groups collapsible so they’re easier to view and expand.What do you think? Would you find this helpful?

Hello, I am a dog trainer who does  in home private sessions (sold in packages of 3,5, 7 and 9 sessions).I am looking for a way to keep track of where I am with each client (how many lessons have they used/ how many lessons are left?). I also need a way to keep track if I have sent a follow up email after each sessions. I got the idea of Airtable after ChatGPT gave me an example of this base, but alas, the AI cannot create said base. I also need a real person I can tweak things with. I tried to do it myself, I get frustrated not being familiar with AirTable.  I will provide more specifics, but this is pretty much it.

I’ve been at my company for about two years and our content team’s workflow has changed pretty drastically in that time. We decided we needed a new Airtable base and to switch to an Interface for ease of tracking projects with multiple components across multiple teams. We finally have the visibility we’ve been lacking for full team transparency. Whereas before each team has its own tab in the data layer that were linked but didn’t really talk to each other, all deliverables now live in one tab and each content piece (based on an Updates tab from the Content Calendar template) lives in a second tab and is automatically created based on content type. There is also (based on the template) a separate area for when external stakeholders request content so that we can vet it for all required information before pulling it into the team workflow. Using interfaces has also allowed us to better share calendars and status updates with external stakeholders,
