I am on the free plan. A few Co-workers can add an event to the calendar by submitting a shared form. The Airtable calendar is then updated. That works well. But say they need to delete an event. How can that be done using the same form, or do I need to make a new shared form? 

Is anyone else experiencing this? Is this normal or is there an issue going on right now?

In the form, i need to fill in the quantity for each item. Each item will be linked to the database. Each form need to be input quantity for around 10 items. pls see photo below 

I’m looking for a way for my client to be able to automatically track his calls and airtable. Is there any third-party integration that you guys know of that would take the calls that he makes and put it into airtable?

I am trying to figure out an effective way to share a view with external collaborators. Companies like Smartsheets allow unlimited guest editors for no extra cost on their business plan, but it seems that with Airtable if I want to share my project plan with a customer just to mark tasks as complete we need to pay $10/mo/user for portals, or full price to get them into the company Airtable account. Are there any alternatives here? How have you guys accomplished this effectively?

My base has a people table and a calendar table. The primary field in the people table is name. In the calendar table, the people table is linked with a field called assignee. In the calendar table, the assignee field correctly displays the primary field name value in grid, calendar, kanban, timeline, gallery and list views, however in all ~100 gannt views my team has created the assignee field now incorrectly displays the airtable record ID of the linked record in the people table. This just began yesterday.  Why is this happening?Am I able to change something to correct this?

Hi all,We've been using a Page Designer invoice setup for a few years without issue, but we're now running into a problem where the Address field isn’t displaying properly.Originally, the Address was pulled in via a lookup field. The field shows the correct data in the row, but Page Designer is displaying a “0” instead of the address.As a troubleshooting step, I also tried using a plain long text field with the address manually entered—but in Page Designer, it just shows a blank square. It’s like the field isn’t registering at all.Is anyone else running into this? Or does anyone have suggestions on how to resolve it?

I want to sync my Airtable View with Google Sheets. Is there any option without using third party tools? I tried automation but it is creating a new row even when the entry is updated instead of updating the entry in Google Sheets. I extensively use Airtable for my work but Airtable has limitations in data visualization. For data visualization, I also tried the data studio connector, but unfortunately it is failing frequently. Any related help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

 Hi guys,Our company is looking to provide tools to our clients and own their data, so that we can analyse it and see what marketing outreach methods work in the market. We currently give our clients a gsheet to track their outreach data, such as sales calls booked, scripts, follow ups, niche.1 client = 1 gsheet with multiple tabs(every client has their private gsheet, but we store it on our gdrive. Now, I know that Airtable could be way more powerful, but wondering what could be the way to go about it? Would it even work? What other alternatives would there be for us?

I am looking to create a form that will collect referrals from teachers that will store all the referrals in one place for those responding to these referrals to be able to act on them and then have the outcomes of those actions be shared out automatically preferably via email but I would also like the referral data to be easily sortable into specific students as reports that can be printed and have the ability to attach other files to these referrals.  I would l also like to be able to analyze all of the data for trends and patterns as well as look at individual student data for trends and patterns.  I have no idea where to begin and if airtable can even do something like this.

Hello everyone, Here is a weird behavior I would like to understand…On one of my computer (and only one), when I validate text in a cell of my text column (when I press enter or change cell after writting something), Airtable sometimes modify some words of the content arbitrarily… Here is a true exemple “remportent” automatically transforms into “représentent” in the next sentence, which often change the meaning of the sentence (and being a journal it’s compromising). Exemple : Les Auvergnats remportent le match contre le LOU.Automatically becomes : Les Auvergnats représentent le match contre le LOU.  Here is my text field : 

Hello, I accidentaly misclicked the button “do not show this message again” when the confirmation message to delete a reccord appeared.I would like to restore it please. I tried to explore interface settings while looking for this fonctionnality but without success. If anyone as an idea, i’m all ear.Thanks and have a nice day !

Hello,Quite simple question : today when you mention a user with “@person” in a comment or a note, he/she gets notified by email. Is there a way to route these notifications in Google Chat, Slack or MS Teams ? I’d like to avoid kludge solution like creating a Zap or Make that watches over the mailbox and transform an email received into a chat message, this should flow directly from airtable to one of those 3 solutions, like a setting in the user specific parameters. 

My team relies on image annotation quite a bit for providing feedback.  As of today, it seems like this isn’t working anymore?  

I have a publicly hosted logo with a URL that I’m adding to my automated email using <img src=” “>. When I generate a preview, it seems to be working correctly: However, once I actually send the email, the logo doesn't populate and just shows the image icon: Can someone help and tell me how to fix this?

I've been trying to get in touch with Airtable sales for over a month regarding upgrading to an Enterprise plan for my company but haven't received any responses. I've submitted the contact form multiple times but no one has has emailed me still. Is there a contact email I can reach out to instead?

hi dear folks, I’m wondering, if I build the Base according to a specific project, once this project has been completed, how could I archive it? For instance, if I start from a Base on “house hunting”, after serval months, when I found the house, literally I shall not use this base anymore, it is no longer make sense to keep it on the workspace as well, and what’s the solution for the archive it in the local disk? Or do I need to archive it? Thanks for any pieces of advice.

I'd like to have a changelog, ideally in Slack, that gets added to whenever a base, table, or field is created or deleted, and whenever a field name or type is changed. However, I couldn't find any functionality to allow this. Has anyone found a workaround for it? Thanks!

Hi,I'm approaching launch for my first Airtable application, a support/ERP/CRM system for my wife's business (two users currently planned). Is there an agreed upon best practise how to launch a production version but yet be able to continue developing the application?I have little real experience in application management, although I have managed some LAMP applications with SQL updates and diffing PHP. I thought I would keep the current base as PROD, make a back-up of it and assign that a DEV role and continue developing new stuff there. But how to migrate changes from DEV to PROD?Rgds,Björn
