Hi all,I know that in my organization, we have several bases that use integrations with other tools, including the Airtable → Slack integration. I don’t remember where I saw it, though. As an organization admin, is there a way for me to find out what integrations people are using, and in which bases/workspaces?Thanks, and happy Friday,Joe Montibello

I’m running into some odd Airtable behavior with a hidden primary field and I can’t find any documentation that explains it. Hoping someone here has insight. Table: PHPTO Form Responses Primary field: PHPTO Pitch Name (single line text) Form: PHPTO Pitch Form Responses On the form, the primary field was present but hidden. Both Member Name and Album Title are required fields. Member Name was created first in the schema. Here’s the behavior: When a record is created from the form, the record history shows that PHPTO Pitch Name is set immediately at creation. Instead of staying blank, Airtable always sets it equal to the Album Title. This happens even though Member Name is also required and appears first in the schema. What I know: Airtable docs confirm that hidden fields still submit values (prefilling hidden fields). Airtable defines the primary as the “short, unique representation” of each record (primary field doc). But nowhere can I find why Airtable prefers Album

I found something that talked about 216px, but it keeps doing this. 

Hey Airtable community - I’ve got a form we intend to use daily to catalog pictures of our daily jobs. The form I’ve made is linked to our “jobs in progress” page and the idea is then that we open the form “upload attachment”, “from camera”, and then snap a quick photo from someones, boss, employee, whoever’s phone. Then it should upload the pic and update the primary record. I’ve got it all working as intended, but the problem is the default picture size on everyones phone is 2 to 3 MB or more, and then we end up having to wait over a minute to upload different pics / angles of the job, when it should really be much faster. These pics are primarily just for liability, colour reference and potentially some social media so they don’t need to be high resolution. I was thinking maybe find a super old phone with smaller pics but seems like a wonky solution, wondering if there’s anything more elegant to speed it all up.

HiI am using Airtable with Fillout forms for a client project based in UK.  Apologies, this question is more about Fillout.I am happy that I can get request a DPA with Airtable in relation to GDPR.Fillout say that they are GDPR Ready but then state that only Enterprise customers can have data hosted in EU.Can we achieve GDPR compliance with Fillout on one of the lesser plans, with data hosted in US?Anyone in the UK in the same position who could maybe offer their thoughts?Thanks

I may be missing it, but is it possible to modify font/size of single/multi select fields in the page designer block? I can modify everything else, but I can’t seem to make these bigger or smaller or change the type of font they use.

I am trying to make a tutoring database and have it so when a tutor claims a students session as a record and add themselves onto the record via the fillout form it makes it so that when another student loads up the page a conditional tells them that someone has already taken the spot. The problem is this only happens if the person opens up the form page at a time after the tutor already submitted his or her form or if the person reloads the page. I was wondering if there was a way for the form to refresh instantly without the tutor having to click refresh to let them know that someone took the spot because if both tutors open the form at the same time and tutor A submits first and takes the spot. On Tutor B's end it still shows that he can still take the spot so when he submits it kicks tutor A off the spot and claims it as tutor B's.

This might have a simple answer that I'm just missing - my supervisor wants to stay logged in to her Airtable account instead of being prompted to sign in each time. I use Google Chrome and am able to stay logged in with my workspaces saved as favorites on my browser. She said she has hers saved in her favorites as well, but uses Microsoft Edge. I'm not exactly sure why mine lets me stay logged in, I've just never had any issue. Any tips on what she could try to get the same result? Thanks so much for your help!

Hello,We are a large sales organization using the Airtable Page Designer to create PDFs in order visualize data from our commission tables. We have created the PDFs in the Airtable Page Designer, but do not know how to attach them back to the individual record within the table.For example: we have commission data generated from the table for the entire sales organization. We would like the PDF that was created for Bob Smith, to automatically pull back into Bob Smith’s record. We plan on emailing all of these PDFs to each individual rep through an automation.TLDR: How do we attach the PDF to the individual rep (record) from which the information was pulled.

I have been using AT for about a year now and love how I can incorporate it to my project management and our companies overall workflow. I am now starting to get the hang of forms but am wondering if I can take it a step further. Here is what I am trying to achieve: I understand that you can embed a form onto a website to get information shot back to your AT. I am wondering if you can do the opposite and share that exact form with another individual, with pre-fille information, a pre-attached file(s) without having to share the record with the person through email. When a record if shared from the original form, the information (record) just gets emailed to the person and that does me no good because I would like to have a “single select” field where someone can approve the form that is being sent to them. If this helps for visual/functional purposes: I want to send over a URL link (custom generated form) to individual customers so that they can approve or deny proofs that our company

Hi everyone. I am able to get the following using Excel formulas but unable to find the equivalent in Airtable formula.

Is there a way to set the time zone for all tables in a base? I just noticed that my “where Ordered is today” filtered out all orders and it’s only 6:31pm – the day is not over yet. :neutral_face:

Hello! I run an auction house for a primarily text based MMORPG that’s PG-13 with the use of Airtable. Lately, we’ve received some submissions that are clearly meme/pranks. The problem is, that some of the material that have been submitted have involved nudity and acts that are lewd. Which breaks the rules of the auction house, as well as the MMORPG that the auction house is ran for (It’s the internet. Some players in the game are minors.). That being said, the staff for the game has asked that I grab the IP address of those that have submitted such images/content so that those users can be banned as appropriate by the game’s TOS. Is there a way for me to discover an IP address of the form submitter or figure out whom submitted what?

Is there a way to use Google Analytics to track table views?

This is not a new topic and I’ve read through all other topics on adding images to email automations using the <img> I use Airtable formula: IF(Attachments, REGEX_EXTRACT(Attachments, "(?:[^(]*\\()([^)]*)"))to create the url. The image file name has no underscores in it. I’ve done the img src=”formula url”/ and doesn’t work.I’ve done the Expiring Download trick and doesn’t work.I’ve created a long text field and added the whole image tag in it then pointed to the long text field in the email body and still didn’t work.I get the broken images. Results all attempts I’ve made below in image. Any insights where something is going wrong, I feel I’m almost there.

I am trying to build a system for a one-man business so the owner will be the only user.  While I’m building at least, how do I restrict the owner from being able to edit anything other than what has been allowed in Interfaces?

Hello,I'm building a new business (creating adult study abroad programs, targeted at the US market) and using Airtable for product management and CRM. I had initially planned to use Mailchimp, via a Make integration, for both marketing and transactional emails, but I have hit a wall importing my initial contact list from Airtable into Mailchimp. I am not a developer and Mailchimp support has been confoundingly bad (2 weeks of effective radio silence, then 3 days of denying that their platform integrates with Make), so Mailchimp and I are going to have to part ways.I am looking for recommendations for a marketing email platform that I can integrate with Airtable - either directly or via Make - without needing to code. Does this exist? I have read on other posts here that Sendgrid integrates directly...but I don't know if this is the best solution. Here's what I need:- robust no-code email editor (similar to Mailchimp)- ability to update contact list based on multiselect tags in multiple

Just curious if anyone here uses a form on a website as a contact submission form. Do you have a problem with spam entries? I’m thinking of replacing my contact form with an embedded Airtable form.

I have a fairly simple database containing 5 or 6 tables. All of these tables are joined one way or another. I am trying to create a word document using Formstack and to run it via the manual integration which I intend to automate through the use of a button in an Interface when I get this working. I have built my first document and mapped all of the field tokens from my Airbase table into my Formstack document and it works a treat. I have now gone to build my second document which uses some fields from the table which I am in when I select the record in Airtable from the integration but it also references so fields from another table albeit in the same base. These fields do not pull through. I have recreated a link field and chosen to show the “add look ups” fields from the other table in the table where I am running the document form, re-written the placeholder references for Formstack and hey presto, it works! Is there any other way to do it with the references I already have in the

Hi there! I’m just curious how I enforce unique values in a column or a group of columns – that is, how to enforce a unique constraint. So that I don’t, for example, accidentally enter the same person (combination First Name + Last Name) twice.

I can't find the base and the table I created when I want to link it to Tally. 

Hi there — I suspect the answer is ‘you can’t’, but is there any way to restrict a user to only be allowed to upload a single attachment to an attachment field in a Form view?

HelloI can’t access Data/automation/Interface as I got this message. I tried a chrome icognito window to re signing but same issue.

Today I noticed that the images I add are not showing up in the grid, kanban, Gallery, and Interface view. Some of the pictures will show once you click on them but they wont show as a thumbnail. and when I click to view other images they don't show the thumbnail nor the image, they only show an error message. I started to troubleshoot by trying to attach different image types and sizes but to no avail. I also tried attaching the same exact images from records I made last week but they too are now showing this error image:“Previews for this filetype are not available”File: dsc_6285(2).webp - 10.8 KBThe 3rd image will show when I click on it but it wont show as a thumbnail. The images I attached last week are showing up still, as a thumbnail. look at where the red arrow is pointing.  To clarify, yes, I am only clicking the “Add Attachment” button to upload my images. No automation.  I’d be very grateful if anyone can help. Please let me know if you have a fix or if I should just contact
