Development & APIs

When visiting developer documentation on Extension components, I cannot see the preview of this component in action. A while ago, I remember that preview was working correctly.   Is Airtable support aware about that? Any info when it gets fixed? When developing custom extensions such previews really helps! Example docs page: https://airtable.com/developers/extensions/api/UI/components/RecordCardList

Hello there,I'm trying to fetch data from a product in one base, then send that information to an external API and then update that new info in other base. The code goes like this: //input of modified product let inputConfig = input.config(); //JSON creation let body = { "costo_ult": inputConfig.costo_ult[0], "disponible": inputConfig.disp[0], "dias_obs": inputConfig.dias_obs[0] } console.log(body); console.log(JSON.stringify(body)); //Send JSON to API try { let response = await fetch(`http://167..../${inputConfig.id[0]}`, { method: 'PATCH', body: JSON.stringify(body), headers: { 'Origin': '', 'Content-Type': 'application/json ; charset=utf-8', 'Authorization': 'eyJhb...', }, }); console.log(await response.json()); } catch (error) { console.log(error); }  The fields I want to update are related to costs, quantities and rotation days, and the response from the script isError {name: "Syntax

I'm trying to connect Power Automate with Airtable using this connector: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/airtable/. I am able to connect when using the API Key. However, when I try to use a personal access token, I get an error. I've tried the full PAT (82 characters) and the PAT key after the token ID. What am I doing wrong? 

Hi all,I have a simple script that is taking some items from the submission of a Gravity Form and updating an AirTable record. It all works great until I get to a section of the form that has checkbox values. INSIDE of one of those checkbox values is a string that contains a commaCheckbox choicesApplesOrangesPearsGrapes, limes and lemonsI can gather all of these out of Gravity Forms and put them in an array and then implode that array to get a comma delimited list, which is what AT wants to absorb that data for checkboxes.$c=Apples, Oranges, Grapes, limes and lemons"records": [{"id": "'.$id.'","fields":{"Committees": "'.$c.'"}}],"typecast":true}';This of course will cause AT to barf when that comes in and tries to split the Grapes out as its own committee and limes and lemons as another committee. I know that in order for AT to treat a Linked Table field items containing commas is to put quotes around it. When I try and quote the incoming data here the update bombs.$c="Apples", "Orange

I'm working on a no-code application with Bravo Studio, using Airtable as a backend. I'm trying to implement a 'multilike' system where each user can like multiple items in an identifiable way. I've considered a table of likes with a user-element relationship, but I'd like specific suggestions on how to implement it in Airtable and how to integrate it effectively with Bravo Studio. Any ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated.Thank you!

hello I use airtable as a database for an external application creation solution. I would like to create a Like option but I cannot find the solution because when a user likes it is all the other utilities that see their like so I would like to know if there is a solution via airtable so that the user identifier and like is only visible and operational for the user account in question

Hi all,  We are a small nonprofit (team of 14 people), who have been using AirTable for the past year and a half. We love its many functionalities. One thing we're hoping to do is integrate some emails into AirTable. Specifically, we want to write a record to an AirTable base when an employee CC's a certain Google Group email. Has anyone done something like this in the past? Would love to see examples if you are willing to share. Thanks,Alex

Hello everyone!I have a database with multiple linked tables and I have a JSON response with which parts I need to update corresponding records in those tables. To achive that (as I'm thinking) I need to solve a simple problem of zipping two arrays into one. Say, I have [rec1, rec2, rec3] and [val1, val2, val3]. I need to get a zipped array [[rec1, val1],[rec2,val2],[rec3, val3]]. How could I make this transformation with Make? Any ideas?Andrey

Hi Community,I am developing an airtable base with interfaces that manages requests logged by a contractor to a consultants on a construction project and also allows the consultants to respond.I need help with it to add some features on it (Kind of out of my depth).Kindly reach me on meisternbim@gmail.comIt's very urgent.Thanks.

I can’t seem to get <RecordCard />s to play nicely as flexbox child or reliably fit 100% width of its container. The default width of a record card is set to 568px wide, which wouldn’t be much of an issue if this were taken care of in the class applied to record cards. Instead, the width (and height) are set with inline styling. Since the width default property won’t take “100%” or “auto” as valid inputs, I can’t use either of those. Setting width to {-1} kind of works by removing the inline styling and getting it to fill its container, but all the record’s fields disappear: I could apply a class with width set to “auto!important” to override the inline styling, but “!important” is not generally good practice. Anyone have some advice?

Hi,I'm getting this error when trying to append to a linked field. The code in question is: ModelRange.updateRecordAsync(record, {'Models List': [...record.getCellValue('Models List'),{id : BMRecord[0]}]}); I'm pretty sure that 'record' is indeed a record object, as it's obtained from  let query = await ModelRange.selectRecordsAsync(); let record = query.getRecord(another[0]); where another[0] is a record ID. Let me know if the rest of my code is needed to diagnose the error, although I can imagine that I'm missing something obvious.Thank you!

Hello, I am trying to write some automation that should call some function in our server through a script and pass as input the image data that is stored in some field. How can I pass the image data ?The url I get there is private and  inaccessible through the server.

Hey thereI created a simple invoice document extension for a table. Now the new year is coming I created a new table and when I duplicate the extension, choose the new table the extension is empty. I guess the connection/affiliation to the fields are incorrect.My idea would be to create an extension template so I can duplicate it and use it for multiple tables. Is that possible or is there an easier way?

Hi all, I need to know if it is possible to somehow create a process to receive incoming data from a form on an airtable Wix site, There will be a form on my site to fill out and I would like this data to be passed to airtable. if it is necessary to write code or if there are tools dedicated to this function, any help and advice is valuable.

Within an HTML form, my users must submit a photo that is critical for validating accompanying data in the submission, but I cannot get Airtable to recognize my attachment as an image.The form is processed with Google Apps Scripts, saving the image to my Google Drive (w/ public permissions), returning the newly created url. I then pass that URL to Airtable via a webhook and the file is uploaded in the appropriate field, however, I cannot get Airtable to recognize the file as an image. Instead, it's given a type of 'text/html' with the name of 'convert' (the name is of no concern, only mentioning it in case it helps to expose the issue).Ive tried creating/saving the file to my Drive as a blob & base64 -- I've tried setting the file type upon saving to Drive and I've tried without -- all successfully saving as images to Drive, but not once recognized as an image in Airtable. I've tried sending the Drive url as-is and I've also tried removing some of the included paramters.I'm at my w

Hey all!I'm trying to embed some search functionality on my personal training website, so that users can search for trainers in our team by postcode or specialisms, and then click through to the URL of that trainer once they've found them.My understanding is you can't currently embed interfaces using Airtable.I've started using Glide recently, and it offers this functionality but unfortunately it looks like you have to pay for the whopping £250/month business plan for the privilege. Eek.Does anyone know of any other platforms that offer this functionality, e.g. Softr etc? It may be worth a small subscription fee if I can find the right platform.Thanks in advance! 

I have successfully gotten airtable to upload a PNG and a PDF from Dropbox. But when airtable processes the file, the type is listed as text/html If I include a type field, I get an error: { "fields": { "Type": "Test", "Comment": "", "Attachments": [ { "url": "https://www.dropbox.com/s/XXXXXXX/robots.png?dl=1", "type": "image/png" } ], "User": "", "Part": [ "recFI6JhdkwTCeB9q" ] } } And I receive this: { "error": { "type": "INVALID_ATTACHMENT_OBJECT", "message": "Invalid attachment object for field Attachments: {\n \\"url\\": \\"https://www.dropbox.com/s/XXXXXXXX/robots.png?dl=1\\",\n \\"type\\": \\"image/png\\"\n}" } } But if i just strio out the “type” there is no error, just the type is wrong.

Hello everyone! Relatively new to scripts, but I think I am starting to get the hang of it.Basically, I am trying to convert a currently overloaded automation into a script for easier maintenance and better customization. Overly simplified automation process:If record is updated > set [Ticket Status] = [Status] for that recordThe script so far: let table = base.getTable("Quick Adds"); let inputConfig = input.config(); await table.updateRecordAsync(inputConfig.RecordId,{ "Ticket Status" : inputConfig.Status }) console.log(`The value of Status is ${inputConfig.Status}`); If I remove the "await" line, everything runs and it outputs the status value. When I run the script with the addition of updating the second field, I get a "Error: Field "fldjRCz6y0ku2XxIY" cannot accept the provided value." for line 3.inputConfig.RecordID is the @ Airtable record ID fieldinputConfig.Status is the Status field

I am currently developing a restaurant app in Bravo connected to Airtable, and I could use some assistance. I've created a script on Airtable that selects a random record from my database of restaurants. The objective is to display the image of a randomly chosen restaurant from Airtable when a specific button is clicked within my Bravo app.I'm facing two challenges:I need to make an API call to my Airtable script, but I'm unsure how to obtain the API URL for the script. In the image enclosed it's said "your script code (including any sensitive data or API keys) will be visible in shared base links" but I don't see the result of the Airtable script in Bravo. Is it due to my billing plan?I'm struggling with data binding to trigger the event in Bravo and execute the script.Your guidance on these matters would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Hello,Looking at the current Airtable fields API, there doesn't seem a way to view or modify the filters for count and rollup fields. If I look at the field options for either of these field types, this does not seem to be supported. Is there a possibility to create a rollup field with a filter programmatically, and/or to see which filters are applied on an existing rollup field?If this is currently not feasible, do we know if there are any plans to implement this in the future?Thank you in advance.

I'm not authorized the table in my vs code using nodejsAirtableError {error: 'NOT_AUTHORIZED',message: 'You are not authorized to perform this operation',statusCode: 403}

I was wondering if there is a way to fetch data of all automations that are created in my account, as well how many times they were ran. I tried to find an API for this, but didn't found.
