Hey ​@GinaGalvez sorry about this! I’ll share the recording and recap below

Thanks to everyone who joined this event! We had a fantastic session packed with practical Airtable advice for beginners, from setting up your first base to keeping things organized as your workflows grow. If you missed it, here are the top highlights:

3 Key Takeaways 👀

• Start with a schema: Before building your base, create a simple table schema outlining your fields and purposes. This upfront planning saves time and confusion later, especially as your base grows or is shared with others. Regularly update and review your schema for ongoing maintenance.
• Choose the right field type: When creating fields, carefully decide between single select, multi-select, or linked records. Ask yourself if the data is a label or an entity, if you’ll need more info about it, or if it appears in multiple places. Linked records are powerful for standardization and reporting, while single/multi-selects are great for quick categorization.
• Maintain and declutter your base: Regularly review your base for redundant fields and keep documentation up to date. Use field agents to automate and consolidate fields, and always double-check dependencies before deleting anything. This keeps your base functional and efficient for everyone.
