Hi there, Sorry to bother you with this question, but since this morning the synchronization between Airtable and Google Calendar does not work anymore. Although I created new records, they no longer appear in the google calendar where I integrated the airtable calendar via its url. Does anyone else encounter this problem? Strange thing too, I work with thunderbird for my different email accounts and in the calendar tool it no longer recognizes the url of my airtable calendar. Thanks for your help.

Hi. Imagine that I have this: let result = await table.selectRecordsAsync({fields: table.fields}); Navigating the API, I saw we can do this: result.records.find(…) but I cant’ fin any example. Can you explain how to use it? Thanks in advance.

Hello I have a base structure of: EVENT → VENUE SLOTS → STAFF ALLOCATIONS Whee an event can have a number of venue slots (ie each day’s activity) and each slot has a number of staff allocated to it I would like to be able to produce a report which shows all of the staff that have been allocated to an event, but I can’t see a way to do this. I can only insert a table for children of the master record - I can’t seem to go any deeper? I was wondering about somehow exporting the data to google sheets but can’t see a great way to do this?

Hello, Ok, the set up, It’s a database. The Variables : First Column = Item ID Second column = Media ID Third Column = Vender ID I have multiple Item ID’s that share the same Media ID. I would like make an interface view where the Media IDs are listed out (but not repeated), and filtered by the Vendor IDs. So far, I cannot seem to find a way to do this without all of the Item IDs that have the same Media ID listing out as well. I hope this makes sense to someone. Thank you.

Hi, I’d like users to add new multiselect options when filling out a form. I’ve seen this discussed here. It’s for internal use so there’s no concern of the table getting filled with messy data. Thanks!

Hey all, We are using Airtable pretty heavily for our VC, Development Studio and our clients MVP’s, with the new interfaces features we are able to build out awesome dashboards in a quarter of the time it would take us with bubble or other no code tools. Using airtable with bubble in this way is super powerful. We’ve looked at stackerHQ for precisely this purpose quite a lot of times but it just didn’t quite fit, airtable seams to have nailed it pretty well. The only issue we are facing is bringing our dashboards client facing (for our VC), it’s a bit cost prohibitive to have 2000 users signed up to our airtable account. StackerHQ does this really well and I wanted to know if anyone has a solution for this or if Airtable is planning to do something here. We use clickUP for our project management but we want to bring our project management into airtable. ClickUp does users not too bad, their concept is that you buy one seat and you get 5 guest seats

Hi–I thought I would keep this thread alive. Why are tsqueries not vectored? Does Airtable want us to create triplicate tables all linked by separate primary fields just to perform a simple search when adding linked records? Blockquote Hi everyone! I would like to know if it possible to search in all fields of a table while looking for a linked record (in another table). I tried to do that but I get results only from the first field.

Hello, community! I have the Airtable base of 10 000 companies - company’s name is used as primary field. The tax unique number of companies are in other field in Integer format. Every week in Excel format I receive many companies data with their tax numbers with important information (status of work and comments) which is not updated in Airtable. Excel file is updated periodically with actual status and comments. To integrate this file to Airtable is not possible as it is managed by other company. How to add important information (status of work and comments) about companies from Excel to Airtable base, using common identificator (tax number)?

I am designing on system where I need to fetch data from the tables from Airtable. Can someone let me know how the reads are charged in Airtable ? Can I go with a solution in which if the user opens the page, the data is loaded from Airtable Or Should I go with Daily Sync to a local database? Please advice

I’m certain this is a lack of understanding of JS or synchronous/asynchronous operations on my part, but: if I want to call Airtable.base.create through the Node.js module and actually get the created records (or error) returned to be used elsewhere, how would I do that? Currently, my code looks like this: export async function createRecord(record) { base('example').create({ "field": record["field"] }, function(err, record) { if (err) { console.error(err); return; } console.log(record.getId()); }); } I can get the information logged to console just fine, but I’m not clear on how to properly return it or assign it to a variable and use it elsewhere.

Hi all! I have trouble wrapping my head around a database I’m building for a client. The concerned DB is for equipment rentals and my problem is making clear what’s available at a given date for rental. In the Rental table, I have a field for the outing date and another for the return. When a new rental is made, we would need to enter specific in/out dates and see the equipment available for those dates. Any idea on this?

Hey, I am a project manager for an event venue. I use airtable to create day sheets for events that function as to-do lists for the day. My team regularly refers to the kanban view. What I am having issues with is I group the events in Kanban by date. Every stack in kanban view is a day. What I am having issues with is when you use filters to filter out events that have already happened, the stack for the day still shows up as an empty stack. This means either uncategorizing old past events or deleting them. Deleting them is not an option as we often have repeat clients, and uncategorizing them messes up the workflow because then uncategorized has a bunch of stuff in it and cant be a landing spot for new entries. Any thoughts?

I’m trying to create a formula to do “high to low” and “low to high” features on our website. It is not working right. I wanted to show just the cheapest if there are multiple rooms available in a property but it does not work right. Here’s the formula that I did. IF(IF(IF(IF(IF(IF(IF(FIND(“$895”, {Price (from Room Details)}), “$995”, “$895”), FIND(“$995”, {Price (from Room Details)}), “$995”), FIND(“$1,095”, {Price (from Room Details)}), “$1,095”), FIND(“$1,195”, {Price (from Room Details)}), “$1,195”), FIND(“$1,295”, {Price (from Room Details)}), “$1,295”), FIND(“$1,395”, {Price (from Room Details)}), “$1,395”), FIND(“$1,495”, {Price (from Room Details)}), “$1,495”)

I have read multiple posts on the subject, but none seem to quite answer my newbie questions. I have 2 tables: Animal and Priority. Animal table contains a list of animals and a link to a list of priorities in Priority table. The animals are grouped by Priority, which automatically sorts by Priority Name in alphabetical order. However, what I want is to sort by Priority Order. I’ve tried sorting by Lookup Fields, but that does not change the ordering. Basically, I want to see a list of animals ordered from Must Have, Nice to Have, Undecided, and Definitely Not. Animal Table Priority Table My workaround is to use a formula in the first column in Priority table to combine Order and Name like this:

I’m wracking my brain trying to figure out how I can make this work. I have an Items table. I have a Locations table. I have a Location Records table that joins the two. An Item has many Location Records, and belongs to a Location through its most recent Location Record, and it has a history of all its past Locations through the sequence of all its Location Records. In the Items table, I can Rollup Location Records–>{Date}–>MAX(values) to pull the {Date} out of the most recent Location Record. But how can I pull the {Location} out of the most recent Location Record, so that I can display an Item’s {Current Location}? I can Rol

Wanted to share a table and give them the rights to add comments to the table (in pre-defined columns for each individual). Right now I can only share “read-only” rights as I tried to share an editable table and was suddenly charged for 2 additional licenses.
