Hey everyone,I have a temporary accommodation that people apply to.All of my applicants are stored on my Airtable in tab #1 (Applications) once they apply with form #1, which I use as my CRM.Once an applicant is accepted, I send this person form #2 asking for the exact move in/out dates and other valuable information using another form.Currently, I'm using tab #2 (Residents) within the same base to store that info and I'm wondering whether:there's a way to put all of the info from form #2 into the existing row that was created with row #1 orI should use another alternative, such as using a List view to combine both of these areasThank you very much for your help!Cheers,Marc from Barcelona

Is there any way to create Airtable sharing groups based on records in an Airtable base?Context: We have around 70 employees belonging to different teams. Team members in each team keep on either changing the team or new members are added to the teams. I regularly update the details relate change of team or new member addition regularly in the master base containing all employee details. Ask: I want the sharing groups to be automatically updated when a particular persons team name has been updated. Is there any way to achieve this? 

Does anyone know how to fix images being cutoff in gallery view? I'd like to do this without selecting "crop" because this makes the image very small - Is there a certain size or?  Attached are two images - one line of images in gallery view where images are cutoff ➕ then how image should appear.

 Hello,I'm trying to connect Airtable to make.com and gets records to fill document with Microsoft Word Templates.The problem is returned data by Make.com. I'm getting something like this "recn3V..." instead of value from Airtable that should be a name of company. Thanks in advance 🙂

I have a whole base set up for our youth wrestling program, and the only thing I cannot figure out is how to set up repeating practices. For example - one group practices Tues, Wed and Thurs every week - so I really need 36+ columns for that group to put one date in each for 3 months? There has to be an easier way to set up events that repeat on a regular basis, right? I have searched the Community and found some references in the past to this issue, but nothig that shows that it has been answered.

Hi there I would like to be able to know how many hours a tasks takes a member on my team so I can be alerted if over 4 hours. The catch is that I want to calculate only business day hours not just straight hours. Example would be if the tasks is started at 4 pm, and the WorkDay ends at 5, then only one hour. Then the clock would start again at 8 AM. until the 4 hours accumulated. I’m thinking it’s not possible but wanted to see if anyone in the community had any ideas. Thanks!

Was just wondering if there was a way to see how many records each base is using? For example to check if you are near your limit of 1,200 / 5,000 / 50,000 records? Thanks.

I have three columns in Table A:a person's name (lookup of Table B)a person's role (lookup of Table C)a posted message (lookup of Table D)For some reason, my posted message column blanked out (Don't ask. I have no idea how.) So, I'd like to see if there is a way I can reconnect the lookup of Table D automatically without using an API. Or is there a way I can build another column in Table A that will return the record I need to reconnect (based on the matching criteria of name (table B) + role (table C))?

Hi all, Sorry for the long-winded explanation but I’m hoping to get my head around the best way to use the chart extension to show project starts for each Quarter. In short, we have a base where each record is a project, and one column nominates a yearly quarter each project to start (ie. “Q1/2021” for projects starting in the first quarter of 2021). Problem when charting is (1) I can’t seem to arrange the x-axis in the correct sequence, and (2) it doesn’t seem to allow for quarters with no projects starting. If I sort by ‘view’, it appears to arrange the x-axis by the order in which they appear on the grid: If I arrange by “X value”, it sorts all Q1 together, then all Q2 together: If I arrange by “Y value” it sorts by total count for each quarter: If anyone knows the best way to arrange the data so the X axis is in the right order AND allows for quarters with zero starts, that would be great! Do I need a separate view set up with only that data in the correct order, or can I use th

When I try and paste the URL for my base calendar to Google calenda nothing happens and the calendar won't add.I recorded a video to explain.

Hi I'm fairly new to Airtable, I am using an Airtable form for my sign up and I haven't launched it yet but when I try to use it to make sure everything is fine, I get a warning:"Warning: potentially risky form"The user-created form you are attempting to access has been flagged as a potential risk. If you wish to proceed and view the form anyways, please remember to never submit your passwords through Airtable forms.Please contact abuse@airtable.com if you would like to request a review of this form."I moved my form from Google form to Airtable thinking it would save me time thanks to the automation but if there's a warning like this then it's not worth it. Airtable hasn't answered me. Has anyone faced this and found a way to resolve the issue?

Attached is a video of the issue. I know I can access the tables from the drop down menu but sometimes just prefer going directly if I know where the table is. The tabs on the right are covered while clicking on the ribbon to move the tabs, it moves the tabs that were previously covered on the right, too far to the left, so that the tab is not covered from the left and can't be clicked on.  

Does anyone have a way to contact the maker of the extension ChatGPT Assistant? The company is called Oxygen Apps , but the support email bounces back, and the CEO's email is also invalid. 

Hello.I am new to AirTable. I am not a software developer. I was given the URL of some research data that somebody compiled on AirTable, and I would like to make use of that data for a project. The table has 2500 records, though, and 21 fields (columns). I don't need all of it, just a small subset. I don't know how to extract that data into something more useful, e.g. .csv, except to print it to a .pdf, extract to .txt, and then parse the text with a script that then saves it to .csv.The problem I'm running into is that I can't fit all the data onto a single page because it seems as if AirTable doesn't let me omit fields (columns) when I print to pdf. I can hide fields from view in my browser (Chrome, Safari), but they are included when I print to pdf. Unfortunately, this jams all the data and shortens it with ellipses (...).Can anybody provide a suggestion or guidance, either in how I can extract all the data from the Table using AirTable's API despite not having direct access to the

Is it possible to copy color conditions to a new table or new view? I'd like to use the same conditions but not have to rebuild said conditions every time I create a new view or new table.Thanks!

Hello, I’m trying to sync my outlook calendar to my Airtable base, but it’s giving me the following error message: “Last synced failed # minutes ago (Microsoft may be experiencing issues with their API).” Are there any problem syncing the Outlook calendar?

I use the script below to retrieve the latest date from all records in table 'personal expenses', and want to insert this value to all records in table 'personal budget' (this table is in the same base).The script works if I update the records in the same table 'personal expenses', but not when updating the other table 'personal budget'. In that case I receive this error: j: Error: Failed hyperAssert: undefined at main on line 33 Can someone help me with debugging? I'm in script noob and assume there's a missing link between selecting the records in tablePersonalExpenses and updating the records in tablePersonalBudget. Thanks in advance! // Replace "Table Name" with the name of your table let tablePersonalExpenses = base.getTable("personal expenses"); let tablePersonalBudget = base.getTable("personal budget"); console.log(tablePersonalExpenses) console.log(tablePersonalBudget) // Replace "Date" with the name of the date field you want to find the latest date o

Until recently, we've had no problems with images and thumbnails displaying in Airtable. Over the last couple of days though, we've had a few images that come through without thumbnails. When you open the record, it shows a 'blank' image (see pics below).In two cases, when I clicked on the image from within the record, the actual image displayed, but for others it remained blank.Users are uploading images from their mobile devices. One is an iPhone user, one is not. Screenshot from expanded record:Screenshot from activity sidebar:Image that opens after clicking on the image in expanded view:For another record, when you click on the image in the expanded record, it shows as a broken image icon upon expansion:I don't know if this is an Airtable glitch, or if something else is going on. Any ideas? Anybody else having this issue?Thanks!Terry

Hi all, I’m wondering if there is any third-party service that can assist in moving an entire CRM database from Salesforce into Airtable. I don’t think it’s as simple as a basic CSV import, as the database has a lot of records linked across tables as well as a lot of files associated with individual records. Is there any service that exists for this? Or is this something that would need to be done manually?

Hi all , What is the best way to save / backup an Airtable database ? e.g. GSheet via Zapier ? And how to automate daily save backup ? Many thanks Anthony

Hello! I am trying to complete a check-in form that takes in student ID (as the key), personal info (name, email, etc.), and the current project (ex. using 3D printer). I am trying to find a way so that what the student inputs their ID (the table's key), the personal info doesn't need to be filled in, just the current project fields. I don't want multiple records of the same ID to be combined (so not dedupe extension) but for the ID recognition to autofill the personal info fields. I've looked at the 'No-Conflict Asset Reservations' template from @Kamille_Parks11 but am 1. confused on how to adapt the code to my needs, 2. worried that it doesn't integrate into the form that would be available to students. Thanks in advance!

I'm trying to represent dimensions using concatenate and IF statements but it's not working.This is what I'm going forIf HEIGHT and WIDTH then H x W in.If HEIGHT and WIDTH and LENGTH then H x W x L in.If DIAMETER then D dia.I managed to get the first two fields working, but I'm not sure how to get the dia field to show up.IF({Length (in)}=0,{Height (in)} & " x " & {Width (in)} & " in.", {Height (in)} & " x " & {Width (in)} & " x " & {Length (in)} & " in.")I also tried the following based on reading some other threads and the formula works (without the & so I didn't get too confused), but doesn't actually produce anything (the Dimensions field stays blank):IF(AND({Length (in)}=0,{Height (in)}&" x "&{Length (in)},IF(AND({Length (in)}>1,{Height (in)}&{

We are moving student metrics to Airtable and I am trying to create a backlog of attendance records for our students since they started. (we have two campus's with seperate start dates). I have an automation working fine for populating records with every new day but what i need help with is the back log script. Currently, I am trying to create a record for every student for everyday they have attended class thus far. Can someone help debug why this is not working? Nothing happens when I run the script and I do not get an error in the console, meaning the script is killed?  let studentTable = base.getTable("Participant Core Database"); let attendanceTable = base.getTable("Attendance"); let inTraining = studentTable.getView("Training View") let currentStudents = await inTraining.selectRecordsAsync({ fields: ["Full Name", "Training Facility"], sorts: [ {field: "Training Facility"}] }) //gets an array of all the dates the student has attended class since t
