Hi airtable Community, 

I want to prefill muliple fields in an airtable form. 

The first fields (Project name) is working well but the second does somehow not. Both are normal text fields..

What did i do wrong? 

Thanks & Best

Hmm, that formula looks good.  If you could private message me a read-only invite link I could take a look at this for you!

@mirkolando 

You didn’t say what error you are receiving, but there are 2 ways for you to easily solve this problem:

1. Use @kuovonne’s Prefilled Forms Extension, which will give you the proper prefill formula to use.

2. Turn to Fillout’s advanced forms for Airtable.

Fillout is 100% free and it gives you 4 different ways to prefill a form — and 3 of those ways don’t even require you to create a complicated prefill URL at all.

Even better, Fillout offers a 5th way to prefill a form, because it allows you to update Airtable records directly with a form, You would use this method if you’re trying to update an existing record in Airtable.

Fillout also offers hundreds of advanced form features that Airtable’s native forms don’t offer. I show how to use a few of the advanced features of Fillout on these 2 Airtable podcast episodes:
