Hello there,Everytime an event occurs, a tool add a new record in Airtable. Once added, it's automatically sorted by Creating Time, so the newest one is always on top.What i need it that if the total rows is 500 and a new record is added on the top, Airtable automatically deletes the number 501 (the oldest one).If not possible another viable solution would be that the 10th of each month for example, or 2 times a week, Airtable automatically deletes columns from 500 to the end.Hope you can help, thank you very much!

Hello! I got unexpected behavior in airtable web api.I use "Update multiple records" (https://airtable.com/developers/web/api/update-multiple-records) method for update or create records if not exists in my table. I use it with "upsert" parameter with two key fields like ["Handle", "Image Position"]. First one is text, second one is number.Expected behavior: update records if them exists, otherwise create new. Got behavior: always create new records.Note that updating with one key field works as expected.In general we need method to import records to airtable from our internal database and keep them up to date.

I’ve made a GPT assistant for e-com clients that can recommend products. This tool is made on make.com. The scenario is made with webhooks, open ai module (convert user query to airtable formula), search airtable records, open ai module (encode formula to URL) and airtable make an api call module.Everthing works except the api module. I believe it's the URL because I have given my PAT every scope, connected it to the base, and have correctly connected it in make.com. The api module is a get request and I have used the list records url from the api documentation. I have tried these two forms of URL encoding and still no luck:v0/appBUitd0yNopP1w7/Imported%20table?maxRecords=3&view=Grid%20view&filterByFormula=AND%28%7Bcolour%7D%20%3D%20%27Blue%27%2C%20%7BCategory%7D%20%3D%20%27Sling%20Bag%27%29

I have linked voiceflow via API with airtable, this works. I would like to filter via FilterByFormula in the parameters, if I then filter on just the order number it works fine. If I filter on just the email address it works fine, but if I filter on both I get the error INVALID_REQUEST_UNKNOWN, with the message Invalid request: parameter validation failed. Check your request data. How can I solve this?

Hi! We experience an urgent issue while airtable status page says everything functions normally. Support seem to be sleeping, so I ask here if anyone know any kind of solution that we can do. What we experience:- No automations are running- Automations page doesn't respond saying "An error has occurred" - Different error codes every time. Here is one. Error: pgl8szkfLTtXp41CN- API doesn't respond- Table views doesn't loadAnything we can do, but to wait for support?

Hi,I want to search for 1 item in a table which contains multiple items in a cell - apple, banana, grape.The filterByFormula with the = only works if there is only 1 item in the cell.  If they are multiple items, I get an error.I tried using "contains" and "like" but they don't work.  What should I use?ThanksSteve

Is it possible to pull data from Harvest into Airtable? Specifically I am looking to transfer costs (Time and Expenses) in Harvest into two fields in my Airtable base. I do not see this functionality natively available with Zapier or Make, but am curious if anyone has found a solution. Thanks in advance!

This forum has been incredibly helpful, so I thought I'd keep asking questions. Next up is why filterByFormula doesn't seem to work in my node app. However, the formula works in the Airtable UI and when used in an HTTP request via the API.  const base = new Airtable({ apiKey: 'xxxxxx' }).base('yyyyy'); const matchingRecords = []; await base('tblbfJeKQo52GnLWD') .select({ filterByFormula: '{project_id}="3986271"' }).eachPage( (pageRecords, fetchNextPage) => { pageRecords.forEach(record => { console.log(record); matchingRecords.push(record); }); fetchNextPage(); }, err => { if (err) { console.error(err); return; } } ); console.log(matchingRecords); The above returns `matchingRecords` as an empty array. However,  https://api.airtable.com/v0/

I'm seeing very slow requests when fetching a single record from a table with 4 records.Very slow as in more than a minute.What am I doing wrong?

Suppose I have the graphs stated below.Chart #1: qty. returns versus weeksChart #2: qty. returns versus items during week 12Chart #3: qty. returns versus items during week 11Chart #4: qty. returns versus items during week 10Chart #5: qty. returns versus items during week 9etc.I want a dashboard where, while I'm on chart #1, and I click a bar over week 12, then chart #2 appears next to it showing the returns per items during week 12;if I click a bar over week 11, then chart #3 appears next to it. That way I only have two charts at one time, instead of thirteen on a dashboard.If possible, I would like to keep going with a third chart. When chart #2 appears, if I click an item, e.g. blue towel, then a third chart shows qty. of blue-towel returns versus weeks; if I click another item on chart #2, e.g. water bottle, then the third chart shows qty. of water-bottle returns versus weeks. 

Does anybody else notice changed behavior when uploading attachments with the API?AT used to fill the file name property by default, but since last week I'm not getting any value when reading the attachment field. Older attachments have the "filename" as usual, newer uploads have no value in the JSON.Can anyone confirm please?Thanks in advance!

Just to be clear. When I add a lookup field to a table, that field is not accessible direct through `getCellValue`, correct? I still have to get the id of the corresponding Linked Record field, and do another lookup to get the value of the field that matches my Lookup field. Correct? Just want to make sure I'm not crazy, because it sure seems like extra work for what could be available directly in the table itself. 

Hello AirTable team,Hope things are good. Our team recently decided to try using AirTable to automate a simple referral management process. The idea is super simple:We have an AirTable database where leads are managedWe've created an interface on top of that database for partners to see status of their leadsWe've published a link to that interface so you can access itThe problem is, whenever our users are trying to work with that interface, they are always getting the "lost connection to the server" popup - which is "harmless" (i.e. if you ignore it - everything works just fine), but it looks "scary" enough for users not even to try to proceed. You can see that experience in an the demo video below —Direct link to the same video: https://vimeo.com/928813339/43acd1bbd7Do you guys h

Hi, I need to create a script that generates a JSON with the information of a record, I have done many tests but I get stuck with the easiest thing, assign the values of the fields to the JSON. Any idea of help or example, thanks a lot. let inputConfig = input.config()let table = base.getTable("CONTRATOS");let record = inputConfig.recordId;// Seleccionar registro de la tablaconst row_rec = await table.selectRecordAsync(record)// Extraer los campos correspondientesconst codigo = row_rec.getCellValueAsString("Codigo")const url = 'https://hook.eu2.make.com/xxxxx'const token = ''const body = {"strBodyRequest": {"BPCode": {"fuente":"CONTRATOS.Código (from Cliente) (from Venta)","valor":codigo},

I have my personal access token with all the scopes, but when I try to create a new entry the  api is returning this error:          "type": "INVALID_PERMISSIONS_OR_MODEL_NOT_FOUND",        "message": "Invalid permissions, or the requested model was not found. Check that both your user and your token have the required permissions, and that the model names and/or ids are correct."  

I have an issue to retieve only specific fields from a aitable record const fieldsToRetrieve = ["BlogSL1", "BlogSL2", "BlogSL3", "BlogSL4", "BlogSL5", "BlogSL6", "BlogSL7", "BlogSL8", "BlogSL9", "BlogSL10"]; const response = await axios.get(`${BASE_URL}/appDP6faKvOeSxUKs/${queryKey}/${id}`, config);

Hi there, Can you help me, please? I am trying to run a script and it results that the record is not found, but it is there. I checked everything - the correct name of a table and view but it keeps giving this warning. Any tips?Thank you

We have an automation through Make.com which uses an API call to import data into Airtable. This has run for 18 months without issue. We are recently getting an error 'Field cannot accept the provided value' The data is a text string which begins with a hash e.g. '# 100'. The field is not a computed or linked field, it is a single line text field. I cannot see what has changed that this data cannot be accepted now. Any help?

Hi,I have an automation in Make.com that adds a record to a table in Airtable. The connection uses an Airtable Personal Access Token. I have given the token all available permissions in Airtable, but am still receiving the below error message in Make.com:[422] Insufficient permissions to create new select option ""Microsoft PowerApps""I suspect it is because I am trying to add an option to a Multi Select field that doesn't already have this option specified in Airtable. Would appreciate any feedback on where I'm going wrong on the permissioning / access approach - it seems like this MUST be possible.I should add that I am currently on the Free plan; not sure if that has an impact.Many thanksBrett

I have the following code: "use server"; import { revalidatePath } from "next/cache"; import { z } from "zod"; import Airtable from 'airtable'; Airtable .configure({ apiKey: 'PAT KEY' }) Airtable .base('ID'); export async function registerSignUp(prevState: { message: string; }, formData: FormData,) { const schema = z.object({ email: z.string(), }); const parse = schema.safeParse({ email: formData.get("email"), }); if (!parse.success) { return { message: "Failed to sign up" }; } const data = parse.data; try { await Airtable.Table.create(data); revalidatePath("/"); return { message: `Signed Up!` }; } catch (e) { return { message: "Failed to sign up" }; } } So all of the above, obvs with the PAT key and ID added works locally but not on production.I am using Vercel free tier to host my site and wonder if that is the problem. Or on airtable there is some CORS or domain whitelisting somewhereupdate:I have

I've been trying to get this to work using a formula but haven't figured it out...What i want: I have a table that contains 1000 records, 12 of which i'm displaying on the web frontend via softr.io. Now what i want is to randomize the 12 records that will be displayed. This does not necessarily need to be randomized each time the page is refreshed/the API call to retreive the records is made. It could also randomize every minute or so.I guess randomisation on refresh/load would have to be made via the API call somehow. But if the API call always retreives records based on a static filter, I would have to randomize the results that the filter retreives on the Airtable side.Any idea how to do this?One simple solution I thought of which should semi-randomize every time the result of NOW() is updated in Airtable: Number records with autonumber. Take the seconds from NOW() and calculate based on the second (which is a value between 0 and 60) which block of 12 records

Hi there, here is my cURL as mentioned in the title i'm having issues just on iOS while on Android it works with no problem.https://api.airtable.com/v0/appOwBv51ihqo****/TableName?filterByFormula=FIND("february",{Mese%20Nome})=1&sort%5B0%5D%5Bfield%5D=Created&sort%5B0%5D%5Bdirection%5D=descStatus: 422Error: undefinedI'm really confused, hope you can help 

The required parameter for the base.createTableAsync call is Fields, but when I put a dynamic list of Fields in it, it says that it's not the right type, when it really is. Is there a workaround? I do not want to hand-key in all of the fields, which may change fairly regularly. Goal: Duplicate the Trainees tableBlocker: base.createTableAsync's Fields parameter does not accept a dynamic set of Fields
