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!

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

My team has access to our individual OneDrive for Business accounts, provided by the company, and access to Sharepoint. When using the attachment field type, I noticed the OneDrive integration only allows for personal OneDrive accounts (not OneDrive for Business). Am I incorrect?

Hey there! So I am trying to figure out if this is even possible, we are trying to hook up some database tables (BigQuery) to airtable. I have gone through the API docs and I see there could be a method of uploading JSONs periodically to airtable, but I feel like there are a lot of limitations there. I’m wondering if anyone has done something similar to this? We use our database as a source of truth, and ideally want to clone the tables from there so that they can be used in airtable freely. Any thoughts / advise is appreciated, thanks!

Hi everyone. For the last few month I’m working as a freelancer. I help my clients to automate different business processes, much of them contain Airtable. My last project was creating a custom integration, that pulled adsets data from facebook ads manager to Airtable. Now, I’m thinking about creating a system that could: First step:pushing all campaigns/adsets/ad data (including metrics) to Airtable Second step: ability to manage facebook campaigns from Airtable. I would like to ask the community, what do you think about that kind of system? what functionality would you like to be in there? any other social media ads that you would like to manage from Airtable? Kind regards

Hi there! Does anyone know if Airtable integrates with Smartsheets? Has anyone tried integrating the two platforms?

Any ideas, experiences and/or suggestions are welcome - thanks! Smartsheet integration with Airtable?

Whenever I try to make a request using Datafetcher, it gives me a 403 error. It’s my first time using it so I don’t know if I’m overlooking anything. I’ve tried contacting support but so far, I haven’t heard back from them.

The open url button field you can create always opens a new tab, and i don't want it to do that, is there any way i can modify the formula so it doesn't open a new tab? I can make a script field instead that stops this but i really don't want to spend any more time on this.

Hello Airtablers, I’m totally stuck with the NoBull extension. When I go to publish the base to Webflow I get this notification: Also, the ‘Bio’ section won’t update. I.e the data doesn’t pull through to Webflow. Is this because I’ve setup the categories incorrectly? Appreciate your help on this. Cheers, Hamish — READ ONLY:

Myself and few of my users have noticed that using the keyboard Tab key to move through fields in an expanded record has stopped working as expected.It appears to be moving through multiple elements before the next input and then there's no focus ring when it does reach the input.Anyone else experiencing this? Airtable, is this known and likely to be fixed?

I am pondering what will happen to extensions in the wake of interfaces?In our company bases have become the primary domain of the administrator setting up and managing the data, while Interfaces have become the dominant workplace for that data.This has made extensions obsolete for all of those working exclusively in interfaces. Will extensions find their way into interfaces eventually?

For the last 20 hours, I have not been able to access Airtable through the MacOS Desktop App.  Out of nowhere, the pages are all broken as if the CSS is not working.  I only see broken text.I uninstalled, reinstalled.  Reloaded pages, nothing.Anyone have insights?

I love the page designer extension and one day realized there are menu options for Records in a Specific View and layout options for a grid or list. I was so psyched -- I've only ever printed one record at a time.But the grid and list isn't working ... the result seems the same as one record at a time. I've done a few tests e.g. creating a new layout, using canned page sizes vs. custom, etc.Any thoughts?

If I have a selection of records showing in View A, I would like to have a button that opens the same selected records in View B.  Any ideas? Or am I missing something obvious? 

We used to be able to copy a formula field from one table and paste it in a linked record field of another table, but are no longer able to do so. Is there a way to re-enable this?

I’m new to Airtable, I’m trying to freeze several rows at the top, in addition to the ability to freeze columns (like “freeze panes” in Excel). Is this possible on the free plan? Is there a better solution? For example, let’s say my records are students and my columns are classes. Each class has some metadata - its location, times and teacher. Currently it’s specified in the first several rows, instead of them holding student data, so the student list begins at about row 6. I need to see this info when I’m scrolling the list of students. Thanks.
