Hi. Noob alert! This is my first attempt at formulas of this nature. I am trying to concate an address (Street 1, Street 2, City, State, Postcode, Country), separated by a comma and space (", "). However, most addresses I enter do not fill the ‘Street 2’ cell, which results in an additional ", " in the formula outcome. I have spent hours trying to correct this and cannot figure it out. I would be grateful for any assistance! Thank you. Here is an image of the issue:

Is it possible to automatically pull EXIF data from an image uploaded on a form created with Airtable and add it to a form. So the user fills in our form and uploads an image.

The date and time. etc Any assistance will be appreciated.

I know I’m overlooking something here but I can’t figure out what that is. I’m trying to create a Publishing Status field using nested IF statements. So far, I’ve only tested the first few statements, but I can’t get anything other than step 1 to show. I still need to add all of this: IF(Done =NOT(Blank()), “step 15”, IF(Published =NOT(BLANK()), “step 14”, IF(Uploaded =NOT(BLANK()), “step 13”, IF(Accepted =NOT(BLANK()), “step 12”, IF({Client Approves Draft} = NOT(BLANK()), “step 11”, IF({Draft Delivery URL} = NOT(BLANK()), “step 10”, IF({Senior Draft Review} =NOT(BLANK()), “step 9”, IF({Internal Draft URL} =NOT(BLANK()), “step 8”, IF({Client Approves Outline} =NOT(BLANK()), “step 7”, IF({Outline Delivery URL} =NOT(BLANK()), “step 6”, IF({Senior Outline Review} =NOT(BLANK()), “step 5”, IF({In

Hi there! I’m an Airtable noob, but a spreadsheet lover. I’m trying to create a formula (Switch looked like the best), that will create custom dates based on the “Task Name.” It involves date math based on “Original Publish Date” field which is a date. Here is a rough example of what I’m trying: SWITCH( {Task Name}, “Create Illustration”, DATEADD({Original Publish Date},-14,‘days’), “Generate blog post and schedule post”, DATEADD({Original Publish Date},-13,‘days’), “Create snippets for social media”, DATEADD({Original Publish Date},-12,‘days’), ) I’ve tried paranthesis around dateadd and end before the comma. That didn’t work either. Is this possible? I see other formulas that seem to work.

Hi, I have a real problem dealing with the button field’s open URL feature & also the formula field. What I’m trying to do is to pre-fill two form fields by clicking a button. What I did is I followed your tutorials to create the formula for the button field, but it throws an error that the formula is not right. My formula is: VIEWLINK&prefill_Scheduled+Session={Scheduled%20Session}&prefill_Task+Number={Task%20Number} I don’t know exactly where is the error is, I tried replacing the (+) sign with “%20” and tried putting “” before and after the URL, and also tried to replace the “&” after the URL to “?”. I just want to prefill these two fields when I click on the button and leave other fields to be populated manually. How can I do that? Thanks,

I’m not sure why this one isn’t working, because I’ve tried copying and pasting from another base where this formula DOES work. I’m trying to write an IF statement for the Gift ID. If “Donor Account” is not blank, GIFT ID should pull Donor Account after the date. If it IS blank, it should pull Company. This is my starting point, but it’s telling me it’s not a real formula. (DATETIME_FORMAT({Date of donation}, ‘M/D/YYYY’) & " — ") & IF(Donor account, Donor account,Company) Thoughts?

Hello Community, I’m having an issue with a substitute function I hope you ban help with. I need to substitute certain numbers in a string that includes quote marks, and I get errors or invalid formulas in every try This is my original string, I have it in a separate field called _bto _data a:2:{i:1595610800;a:29:{s:10:“query_type”;s:12:“category_ids”;s:21:“assigned_category_ids”;a:1:{i:0;i:227;}s:14:“selection_mode”;s:9:“dropdowns”;s:10:“default_id”;s:4:“2615”;s:5:“title”;s:26:“Elige la base de tu Anillo”;s:11:“description”;s:97:“Selecciona una de las opciones de la lista con el metal, talla y piedras secundarias que deseas. “;s:12:“thumbnail_id”;s:0:””;s:12:“quantity_min”;i:1;s:12:“quantity_max”;i:1;s:8:“discount”;s:0:"";s:19:“priced_individually”;s:3:“yes”;s:20:“shipped_individually”;s:2:“no”;s:8:“optional”;s:2:“no”;s:14:“display_prices”;s:8:“absolute”;s:13:“select_action”;s:4:“view”;s:18:“hide_product_title”;s:2:“no”;s:24:“hide_product_description”;s:

Hi guys, I really need help with setting up the search formula for my specific case. We have an attendees email column in Airtable, which each cell will includes multi emails, e.g. email1, email2, email3. In the zap, I need to search certain email in this column, and find the right row, then read the other related info from the same row. I used the FIND("{{94825201__hidden_email}}",{AttendeeEmails}) in the search formula in Zap, which works, but it doesn’t apply to find the exact same email, e.g larose@test.com (let’s say email A), and rose@test.com (let’s say email B), when searching B, the system will find A. Then I changed the formula to FIND(", {{94825201__hidden_email}}",{AttendeeEmails}), added ", " into, which can help to find e.g “, A”, but this doesn’t apply to the first email address, since there’s no ", " before it. Does anyone have an

I have two fields in a table for a sheet music library: Last Name and Given Names. Is there a formula expression that will produce the initials for the given names? For example, If the Given Names field is just “Johann”, I would like to produce the string “J.”. If the Given Names field is “Johann Sebastion”, I would like to produce the string, "J. S. ". If the Given Names field is “Carl Philipp Emanuel”, I would like to produce the string, "C. P. E. ". Etc. Thank you for any comments. DG

Hello, I’m trying to create an automatic file numbering scheme for my project list and file list. I’ve read some of the other posts on this but can’t get my specific need. I’d like the filing scheme to be: year (last 2 digits) + 3 digit sequential number: so 20-001, 20-002, etc. I figured out how to pull out the string value for the year from current date (i.e. “20”) and I’ve figured out how to sequentially number entries. But I can’t get the two together. For example, when 2021 starts, I want the numbering to reset to 001. Is there anyway to do that? Many thanks,

I am looking for a way to trigger a timestamp when a status changes. This is for an article writing process and we have 3 status options, (In Creation, In Review, Complete). I want a timestamp to take place when the status is changed between each status so at the end, I can calculate how many days the article was in each status. I am hoping to do this so the timestamp doesn’t override itself when the status changes but can help me see how long it stayed in each status. I know how to trigger a timestamp using a checkbox but want the status change to trigger that on its own. THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE HELP!

Hi Folks, I need help writing a formula that returns only data for this week related to a release date I know this formula works IF(WEEKNUM({Release Date})=WEEKNUM(TODAY()),“this week”,“NOT”) However, it still shows me content released for the next year same as this week. I only want to work on the current year not all years in my view. Thanks, A lot for your time

Hi, for my academic research database I’m trying to write a formula that will automatically extract a four-digit number from a cell (i.e. extracting year from a citekey). For example (Citekey --> Year), Downs1965NonmarketDecisionMaking --> 1965 Welborn1968BureaucracyAnthonyDowns --> 1968 Any ideas on how I might be able to do this? Thanks.

This is probably so easy, but I just can’t get it to work. I hav 13 columns that are using a formula to extrapolate a comma separated list from a single column. That works great. I am then trying to use a new formula field to look across all 13 and put the result of the last column that is not blank. (i.e. if column 1 has text then check column 2. If column 2 is blank then column 1 in field if column 2 has text then check column 3 and if 3 is blank them column 2 and so on. the columns are called item1, item2, item3 and so on. Thanks in advance

Hi, I am creating a cash float in Airtable. I have a field called ‘Start of Day Cash’ that gets entered via Form. However, we now have remote days where people are not on site to count cash. Is it possible to have the record be the same as previous entries automatically UNLESS somebody fills out the Form to update it with a new number. Then all the subsequent entries would change to that updated number via Form. Thank you!

Not sure how to describe this one… I have a primary field in one tab of Publications. Each publication has a Pub Date column. In another tab, I have Last Name as a primary field (of authors) and want to create a column that tells me the most recent publication they were attached to. If I use Roll-Up with max value, I can get the pub date itself (1/12/20) to appear rather than the name of the most recent publication the author is attached to. So I think I need a formula that would produce, instead, the most recent Publication the author is attached to. Any thoughts?

Hi, I work for a charity that distributes surplus food to members of the local community for a small weekly fee. I use Airtable to keep track of, among other things, how much each person pays each week, versus how much they should’ve paid. I use two linked tables to track this - one on which I record each individual transaction, and another that uses rollup fields to add each member’s transactions together so I can see each member’s history at a glance. I’ve set it up so that the Rollup table shows me how much (if anything) a member owes us in total, but the actual maths for that is done in the Transactions table. At the moment, one food delivery costs £3, but we’re about to increase that to £4. My trouble is with how to get Airtable to reflect this change. If I just change the formula for the amount owed from {Packages delivered}*3 to {Packages delivered}*4 then it’ll re-calculate every member’s payment history and tell me that everyone is £1 per week in debt, so I’m

I’ve been trying to figure out how to make this crazy formula happen, but I’ve hit a wall. Can it even be done? Check out below and let me know how you’d accomplish such a thing… In the base, users select from a list of deliverables via a linked record field that contains everything a client can order for a particular asset (InstagramAd, SnapchatAd, Master, etc.) Each deliverable has a generic file title that follows a specific convention: Everything between the exclamation points is replaced with information specific to the asset when the deliverable is chosen on the Order table. So the above generic file title auto-generates this asset-specific file title: Figured it out :slightly_smiling_face:

How would I remove everything after *? Using this works but also gets rid of the ones that only have 1 name. LEFT( {Name}, FIND( " * ", {Name} )-1 ) Maslow *Loyal, Lovable Companion Max Bella Hope’s Boy 2 Hope’s Boy 1 Chase *Snuggle Bug (pending)

I’m looking for help writing a formula to show what pay a staff member has earned based on a variable. I have hours worked (at 30 per hour for one role, and 25 for a different role), and trainings complete at 50 per session. How do I write a formula that looks at the “role assigned select field” and calculates based on the correct rate of pay? Thanks,

I’ve created a formula to subtract no.of days from a date, this has worked, however a number of the fields are blank so returning an error, I’ve created a separate formula for that too which also works, but I don’t know how to join them together in the same formulae? DATEADD({Date auto-renew goes into effect},-{Auto renew notice period},‘days’) IF({Date auto-renew goes into effect}, " ")

Having trouble with an IF formula. IF({Job Size}<=10,DATEADD{Order Start Date,7,‘days’},DATEADD{Order Start Date,14’days’}) I’m trying to generate a date based on our ‘Order Start Date’, where if the integer entered in the ‘Job Size’ field is less than, or equal to, ‘10’, it will add 7 days to the ‘Order Start Date’, and if not (specifically a larger number), it will add ‘14’ to the ‘Order Start Date’. I’m not seeing what I’m doing wrong :woman_facepalming:
