Hi - I'm new to AirTable so I may have missed something, but if I duplicate an existing record (say a "Plate" in Product Database), change the name to "Cup" & other data to I end up w/ 2 records "Cup" & "Plate" in the table - as expected.  However in other tables where "Plate" was included as a linked record, I also now show both records in linked field in these tables. How can I prevent this behavior?

I've created a timeline view. It's nearly what I need but the labels of my records disappear when I use longer timescales. Is there a way to have the label appear above/below so that I can still see them when zoomed out?

I’m a new user in the wonderful world of Airtable but can’t find a way to further implement my chart blocks. Can they be used on page designer? Is there a report generator feature I’m missing?

From a look-up field array, I’m extracting a duration h:mm, which I’m trying to convert to a duration field. The time comes out alright in a human readable format, e.g. 2:59, 4:24, 6:00, but I’m struggling to convert the string into a duration formatted field via formula. I tried using a few formula IF(Time,DATETIME_FORMAT(DATEADD(TODAY(),Time&“”,‘s’),‘H:mm’)) = always 0:00. IF(Time,DATETIME_FORMAT(DATETIME_PARSE({Time},‘H:mm’),‘H:mm’)) = still no formatting

Hello,In my form, I would like a dropdown to show a list depending on which answer was chosen previously. It is for a sports form, so I can explain better:Question 1: What kind of training?

If Track on 2, possible answers: Intervals, Series.I don't want three different fields for two, but I don't see how to do it otherwise.Any ideas?Thanks in advance

Our clients fill out two separate Airtable forms, one after the other. I'd like the questions on Form #2 to be filtered according to their responses in Form #1.As far as I can see, the only filtered conditions you can set are based on answers in the CURRENT form.Has anyone found a workaround for this? Thank you!

Howdy everyone!Is anyone else having issues with embedding code blocks on the new forum?Markdown went away 😓 so I used the regular code block from the tool bar, but still there are some funky errors showing up...If I add just the block by itself - there is no errors in the preview, but as soon I add text above it - it starts showing errors.Maybe Airtable agrees that good code is self-explanatory and does not require comments? 😂

I’m quite new to Airtable and have been reading everything I can find (the oficial videos, the reference guide, several blog posts etc). But still can’t seem to get my head around this. Any help would be much appreciated. This is my simplified current setup: Table 1 - Events Field 1: EVENT NAME [text] Field 2: CATEGORY [single select dropdown] Table 2 - Category Rules Field 1: SEARCH STRING [text] Filed 2: CATEGORY I’m importing data from another source into Table 1 and want to be able to auto categorize the Events. So basically, if the value of EVENT NAME matches the SEARCH STRING on Table 2, the category field would be auto-selected with the correct category. Is this possible with Airtable? It would be super helpful if anyone could point me in the right direction. I really have no idea how to tackle this. Thank you!

Is there a way to display multiple lines of text for a single field in a Kanban card (similar to ‘row height’ in grid view)? I’m evaluating Airtable for task tracking, but right now Kanban is not usable to me because I can’t read more than three or so words before the text is chopped off.

I have the following code in a Google Scripts: var data = { "records": [ { "fields": { "Contract Address": "test", "0x8df3aad3a84da6b69a4da8aec3ea40d9091b2ac4": "1234" } } ] }; var options = { "method" : "post", "payload" : data }; function tryAPost(){ var url = "https://api.airtable.com/v0/xxxxxxxxxxxxx/Balance%20Tracking?api_key=keyxxxxxxxxxx"; var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options); }; I get the following error: Exception: Request failed for https://api.airtable.com returned code 422. Truncated server response: {"error":{"type":"INVALID_REQUEST_UNKNOWN","message":"Invalid request: parameter validation failed. Check your request data."}} (use muteHttpExceptions option to examine full response) The authorization and URL work for a get request, and the data payload works in the body of post

So it seems I may be dumb, but I was under the impression that how I'm using the attachment field is ok and I wouldn't be impacted by the changes but I'm now seeing all my attachments are broken.The way I have it configured is I scan a document into google drive then upload it to my airtable. These doc are not shared or used in automations. They simply live in my base where they are occasionally referenced when we have a billing dispute.
