Can the buttonAsync be created dynamically? I have an array of Order Numbers called filteredOrderNames. Can each value of the array serve as the button label? let selectedOrder = await input.buttonsAsync( 'Select Order Group from List below', [ {label: filteredOrdersNames, value: filteredOrders} ]);

Hey there,The "Insights" tab in our base is so useful for clean-up, and one of my favorite features is when it tells us which views in our base haven't been accessed for 90+ days. We're doing a base audit to clean things up, and we want to go through all of our views in a slightly more programmatic way. From the API docs, it looks like the metadata we can pull about a view doesn't contain its "last accessed" date, or anything like that:The only way I could think of to access this data would be to pull our Enterprise logs, search by view ID, and then grab the most recent date stamp for each access. That seems like a rather painful workaround, and since the data is already packaged so nicely in the insights tab, I was wondering if there's a workaround anybody knows of to grab it more quickly without having to do a brute force search. TIA!

Hi, I used the HelloWorld TypeScript example, installed and imported the @octokit/rest package to interact with GitHub and now I get the following error. The module is @octokit/rest present in the node_modules, vscode uses types from the package OK.Is there some caveat on using third party NPM modules?Running NodeJS 14 (per docs) and @airtable/blocks 1.18.1 $ block run --http Updating bundle... Bundle Error: Cannot find module '@octokit/rest' from '/workspaces/airtable-run-github-workflow/build/development/transpiled/user/frontend' Your block is running locally at http://localhost:9000  

Hello!If I want to add a checkbox to a rich text field I simply type [] and checkbox appears.But the same does not seems to work over scripting. I tried all kinds of combinations of `[] ` and `- [ ] ` and so on with no success.```let formattedInstructions = instructions.map(instruction => `- [ ] ${instruction}`).join('\n');```Maybe it's not possible right now?Thank you!

As per the title, has anyone connected a standard html form to Airtable? I’m struggling to work it out and need a little help.

Trying to set up the barcode generator (Little Appy Co) suggested by airtable - however the content field is not valid. I have tried all the suggested field types numbers / auto number / single line text etc but still telling me when I try to generate invalid field. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong. 

Field Type and Compatibility:Ensure Field Compatibility: Verify that the barcode generator field is compatible with the system or software you are using. Some platforms may not support custom field types or require specific configurations.Check Documentation: Review the documentation for your platform to see if there are specific requirements or supported field types for barcodes.Configuration and Setup:Field Configuration: Double-check that the barcode field is configured correctly. This may include setting correct parameters, like the type of barcode (e.g., QR code, Code 128), and ensuring it’s linked to the appropriate data source.Validation Rules: Ensure that any validation rules applied to the barcode field are correct and not causing it to be flagged as invalid.Integration and Implementation:API or Plugin: If using an API or plugin for barcode generation, make sure it is correctly integrated into your system. Verify that all necessary

Hai,I am trying to connect Airtable in .net maui. I installed Airtable 1.4.0 ,AirtableEfcore 1.1.0 and CData.Airtable.EntityFrameworkCore. This is my codepublic class TestDbContext : DbContext{public TestDbContext(DbContextOptions options) : base(options){}public DbSet<Student> Master { get; set; }protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder){base.OnModelCreating(modelBuilder);}}public class Student{public string Id { get; set; }public string Name { get; set; }}protected override void OnConfiguring(DbContextOptionsBuilder optionsBuilder){var services = new ServiceCollection();services.AddDbContext<TestDbContext>(o => o.UseAirtable("app66666Xep", "patSOBFs83Vv6"));var sp = services.BuildServiceProvider();var scope = sp.CreateScope();var db = scope.ServiceProvider.GetRequiredService<TestDbContext&

This connector method exposed the PAT in cleartext. If I share the Excel spreadsheet, the user can discover my PAT and query other company tables. They would need to know different table and base IDs. If my computer storage gets compromised, the hacker will get access to this PAT. Is there a better way to authenticate than using a PAT as a parameter?I do see a method in data source settings of query editor (PowerBI or Excel) called Web API but Airtable has deprecated its use.https://support.airtable.com/docs/visualizing-airtable-records-in-microsoft-power-bi-power-query

Hi all,I have a question about exactly when an 'update' change type notification would be sent via Airtable new Webhooks API.For example, say I'm writing some text into a 'Single Line Text' or 'Long Text' field, will my webhook subscription for 'update' notifications be called multiple times as the text is being entered, or will it debounce and wait some x number of seconds after I've stopped typing?In the documentation for webhook notification delivery, it states:If multiple changes occur in rapid succession, then we may generate only a single notification for them.Does typing text into a field, at a normal typing speed, fall into the category of 'rapid succession'?

From January 25th, 2022, we are rolling out a small change to the URL format for Airtable tables, views and records used by Automations triggers and actions. The change is that the base ID (appXXXXXXXXXXXXXX) will appear at the start of the URL. This change coincides with the recent decision to include base IDs in Airtable URLs throughout the rest of the product. The change in the record URL format will occurs in these places: The url property of a record output by a trigger/action. Example record output by a trigger/action: Record#url Before: airtable.com/tblXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/recXXXXXXXXXXXXXX After:airtable.com/appXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/tblXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/recXXXXXXXXXXXXXX The url property of a Table or View model retrieved by the Run Script action.

How can I change the API key to access token and get records on my browserhttps://api.airtable.com/v0/appJiy**pcKfS****p/Users?&api_key=keycj***N8PUCH***Previously it works like this^^^∆

Hi,I would love to able to share custom apps with external users. Maybe someone has an idea if I can realize that using the airtable interfaces. Dashboards can be build super quickly. In general, I have a straight-forward use case:We are using Airtable as CRM and would like to allow customers to access their data / i.e. an overview of their data. It would be great if we could just send them a link and they immediately have access to a dashboard. Is this somehow realizable? 

I am syncing my Google Calendar with airtable - one way: I'm adding the bookings on Google Calendar and they display on my airtable calender view. Today, none of my bookings after tomorrow is showing on my Airtable. Is there something wrong? 

I have a database with two tables “gifts” and “status”. I'd like to use a button to update the status automatically via a script. I searched the documentation and the forum, but I couldn't find any solution to adapt the script to my problem. Here's the code I've already added, and the options I've explored.This is my code :// Récupère la table Cadeaux let tableCadeaux = base.getTable("🎁 Cadeaux"); console.log(tableCadeaux); //Récupère le champo statuts de la table Cadeaux let statut = tableCadeaux.getField("✅ Statuts"); console.log(statut); // Récupère le record.id de la table Cadeaux let queryResult = await tableCadeaux.selectRecordsAsync({fields: []}); let record = queryResult.records[0]; console.log(record.id); // Récupère la table Statuts let tableStatuts = base.getTable("✅ Statuts"); console.log(tableStatuts); let newRecordIdToLink = '🎁 Réservé'; tableCadeaux.updateRecordAsync(record, { "✅ Statuts"

Here the working script extension: // Create script output descriptionoutput.markdown( "# Stores with 2+ WO in 30 days" ); // Set Tableconst woTable1 = base.getTable( "BR_Details" ) // Set Viewconst woView1 = woTable1.getView( 'Stores with 2+ WO in 30 days' )

I have the following TS code (using the Airtable REST API) export const updateInstanceQRCode = (instanceId: string, qrCodeUrl: string) => { return base('Instance').update([ { "id": instanceId, "fields": { "QR Code": [{ "url": qrCodeUrl }] }, }, ]); } which works great when I am testing in development, but the moment I try to build the project, I get the following error: > tsc -b && vite build src/externalAPI/AirtableClient.tsx:127:21 - error TS2739: Type '{ url: string; }' is missing the following properties from type 'Attachment': id, filename, size, type 127 "QR Code": [{ ~ 128 "url": qrCodeUrl ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 129 }] ~~~~~~~~~ Found 1 error. In my package.json, I'm using the following version of the official airtable module:&n

Is it just me or is anyone else having trouble with api calls on interfaces?Get / Delete / Add workspace or base collaborators work perfectly fine. But seems like anything to do with interfaces in not found. The below specifically.Even putting the URL directly in my browser gives 404, instead of a permission error.

Hello there, I'm trying to write data from one base to another through Airtable's API. My JSON is something like this:  let body = { "fields":{ "prod_serv_cia_id": inputConfig.cia_id[0], "NroParte": inputConfig.codigo[0], "DescripCorta": inputConfig.descrip[0], "DescripLarga": inputConfig.descrip[0], "Marca": inputConfig.marca[0], "Cantidad": inputConfig.disp[0], "Costo": inputConfig.costo[0], "AlmacenesScript": inputConfig.cia[0], "StatusProducto":[ { "id": "selq********yr", "name": "1. Producto seleccionado" } ], "typecast": true }, }  And the response I'm getting from the Airtable's API is:  {error: Object} error: Object type: "INVALID_VALUE_FOR_COLUMN" message: "Cannot parse value for field StatusProducto"  The "StatusProducto" field is:

Probably a simple solution, but I can not figure it out. I am using the following script to try to get a list of all of the records in a specific table.let table = base.getTable("Codes");let query = await table.selectRecordsAsync();console.log (query) When I run this, I get the following error O: No field with ID fldwfud1d0wv3rdVD in table 'Codes' at main on line 2When I run this same coding using one of the other tables, it works as expected. Any ideas on how to fix t

Hi there, This question is for the Airtable team. I see that you are using browserify to bundle the block code, would love to also be able to bundle external css files with the block, instead of loading them asynchronously using loadCSSFromURLAsync (which also makes development and deployment more complex). There are quite a few browserify transformation packages that can make that happen, but I haven’t been able to make them work so far, when trying to control browserify transformations from the package.json file. Here are the packages I tried / found so far: brfs - doesn’t work with es6 modules brfs-babel - doesn’t do the transform, for some reason, even when i add {"browserify": {"transform": ["brfs-babel"] } } to package.json

Hi, We are looking for ways to pull data from our Linnworks.NET account (basically and order and inventory management platform) to Airtable. So far we have been using MiniExtensions to import csv files with data exported from Linnworks to Dropbox or FTP server. This has worked well, but MiniExtenions have a limit of 10 instances of their csv import app, meaning that we are limited in the type of data we can import. We have already hit this limit. I realise that the best solution for transferring data would be via api, but I am not yet very familiar yet with writing api calls. The big stumbling block to this going ahead, from what I can see, is managing Linnworks Authorization. Linnworks Developer Resources - API Home My question is a general one. Does Airtable scripting allow means to acquire auth tokens an
