Hello!We have a dashboard interface that we share with our clients. While we filter the elements of the dashboard to show records only where an email field in the record is the same as the login email of the Airtable account, anyone can still see a full list of who has access to the dashboard and their Airtable email addresses. This has been brought up as a concern as various countries would see that as a possible privacy infringement since contact information is shared. Is there a way to hide this information to others that also have visibility of a public shared link (be it to a base, or interface)?  

Not sure if this is possible as I just started using Airtable. I created a formula for contracts based on Start Dates and Contract Term that will give me an Automatic Original End Date. Then I have another Field for Bonus weeks which will give me a “Final End Date” I am looking for a way to make the Final End Date field a Date/Time instead of a Formula field so that I can sort and group a certain way from a Date. Is this possible?

We have three bases in Airtable, two of which are experiencing issues. The first base works as expected, allowing users to tab between cells, use arrow keys to navigate within cells, and copy-paste data smoothly. However, the second and third bases both have significant problems. In the second base, users can only copy or edit cells by double-clicking into them, and when tabbing, it only interacts with elements outside of Airtable in the browser—arrow keys also don't work. The third base is even more problematic, where none of the usual keyboard navigation features work. Tabbing and using the arrow keys have no effect, and users are stuck on the originally selected cell, unable to move or interact with other cells at all. No recent changes have been made.

I would like to resubmit a  two year old feature request that would greatly simplify everyday work with Airtable:Proposed Feature:Allow users to temporarily enable or disable conditions in filters, groupings, and sorts, without having to delete and recreate them.What problem does this solve?Currently, a user must delete a condition to disable it and then manually recreate it later. This process is time-consuming, error-prone, and unnecessarily complicated.How would this feature help?A simple toggle on/off option would let users quickly test different views or check data without losing their existing settings. This would significantly improve flexibility and efficiency.Who would benefit?Every user who works with complex views and wants to switch between different setting

Hi there, I’m just wondering if anyone has tested the new Sandbox beta yet? This looks like something that would be really beneficial to us, but having never used anything like it I’m interested to hear other people’s experiences before enabling it. An example of something I’m not sure about is that I will sometimes have to make bulk changes to data when making field changes (eg splitting or consolidating fields), which may still be getting edited in Production while I’m making the changes in Sandbox. Does Airtable do anything to manage this? Looking forward to hearing your experiences. Thanks,Josh

Hi Everyone,Hope you can help me out please.I have a table with a client session log adding a new record for each client when they have another session:  I would like to be able to show how many sessions each client has had (eg the maximum number of sessions). In this case for Jamie it will show 3.I want to be able to bring the name and number of sessions into a report - Jamie - 3, Siobhan - 2, as a list.Could anyone please help me to generate this field so that I can pull it into a report?Thanks so much for taking the time to look at this if you are able.Kind regards,Siobhan

Hi Airtable team,I've encountered a Unicode-related issue with the “contains” filter in Airtable that leads to inconsistent and unexpected behavior when searching for certain characters – specifically, characters like “ü” stored as composed Unicode sequences.🧪 Reproduction Scenario:I'm importing records from an external API into Airtable. These records include names with the word “Vorzüge”, but the “ü” character is stored as a composed form:u (U+0075) + combining diaeresis ¨ (U+0308) – rather than as a single precomposed character ü (U+00FC).Example records: 📂 Vorzüge record A (with composed “ü”: u + ¨) 📂 Vorzüge record B (with normal/precomposed “ü”) 🧩 Problem: When using the "contains" filter on the field and typing "Vorzüge

Is it possible to invoice multiple customers at once for the same item? Background: I publish a newsletter and charge a yearly subscription. I rebill them for a renewal on the month they signed up one year later. I have normal turnover so I mange my list. I was thinking I could create groups by renewal month and price level (I have three price levels, no sales tax, very simple) and add my customers to their assigned group. Then at the start of each month Invoice that group and it would create an invoice for each member of the group with the same item. I would like to avoid having to create an invoice for each customer which can range from 30-175, depending on the month. Side note: The reoccurring billing in my accounting software is clunky and with airtable I’m trying to build a CRM/Membership Management+Invoicing in one, the cleanness and quick drill down appeals to me. I’ve looked at other options but my customer base skews older (Farmers) and 75% pay by check. Any help or suggest

I need a form where clients can enter there data and as many fotos as they want taken directly with the ipad. In Airtable I need to make a entry for each photo taken.Example in Form i have.Name = Mr Example Email = lastname@company.com Photos = with ipad i make directly Foto A, Foto B and Foto CWhen the form is send the following entries must be done in Airtable:Entry 1 in airtable:Name = Mr Example Email = lastname@company.com Photos = Foto AEntry 2 in airtable:Name = Mr Example Email = lastname@company.com Photos = Foto BEntry 3 in airtable:Name = Mr Example Email = lastname@company.com Photos = Foto CThanks very much 

I see from the similar topics results that there is a feature request for conditional formatting - if that has been done, please mention how to find it, or if it is a paid option? I’m trying to create a column that flags members of a specific category and their expiration date. SO - ideally, top level members (let’s say Platinum), with an expiration date greater than TODAY, would show in red, or have a checkbox or something. With expiration dates less than TODAY, would have an X. The base currently contains a linked field for member category, and a field for expiration date. Suggestions on how to achieve the desired goal described above, either as formatting the record (or fields in the record) or by updating a flag field that has blanks, checks or Xs. Thoughts?

I couldn’t find anything specifically answering this and it may be a dumb question. Within our workspace we have a base that has tables for the various types of common data we use, and that data is synced to its respective databases for each department. The particular table I’m looking at contains common site locations  that are used across the board. These site locations are synced to each respective department. However, each department may have their own unique sites to add. Is it possible to keep the common sites synced and also give each department the ability to  add their own sites to that same table in their respective bases?

I find dark mode uncomfortable and want to change it on the community area i.e. these pages.  Cant see anything under settings

Hello, I have an airtable to track travel & accommodation requests for our company. I need to export information from a record into an editable template document to send travel information for approval, preferably in an excel template. I have been working on creating a document using the ‘documint’ extension but I’d prefer the flexibility to add additional information once it has been exported from airtable. Is there a way to export from airtable to an excel template? Or word, or another similar program?

Hello to all, I have created a form to receive data, and when I submit the form, I redirect it to a documint url to generate a pdf file.

I have noticed that the PDFs I have created with Page Designer (by clicking the little printer icon) do not contain selectable text. It seems to be a giant image. Not how a PDF is supposed to work. This is especially relevant when you include a URL field and want this to be clickable. Strangely enough some of my URL fields are clickable in the little preview pane in Airtable. But only some of them. Of course when I print and save them as PDFs none of them are clickable, because it is not text. There is an answer to a previous question that suggests using Long Text fields to avoid that problem but that does not work for me (and how should it, since my output is not text?): Some links not clickable in output PDFs from page designer - #6 by ScottWorld

Before maybe a month ago, when I clicked to add new fields, I can just type the name and then select the type. Now I have to select the field type first and then enter a name. My brain is wired the other way. Is there anyway to go back to the old way?

Hello community 😊I think I want to build an app that converts your paper documents into Airtable records. Just take a picture and it will fill out the corresponding record fields for you. But before building it I want to see if there’s interest. So, if this is something you would use, please let me know by filling out this form: https://airtable.com/appafp6Lmjx6JWTQT/pagXrEyUU67hnWu3Y/formIf you want to check out the concept video:  

According to this support article, it says that we can use markdown formatting in any “long text field with rich text formatting on”. However, this doesn’t work. We have a long text field with rich text formatting on, but when we add markdown syntax into our text, nothing happens. For example, if we type the following into our long text field: **test** *test* test We would expect the results to look like: test test test (Notice that the 1st word is in bold, the 2nd word is in italics, and the 3rd word is plain text. That’s what we would expect.) But everything just stays in plain text, and looks like: **test** *test* test Thoughts on how to get this markdown formatting to work within a rich text long text field?

I am new to Airtable so forgive me if this is an easy answer. I have searched the forum and can not find the solution. I want to sum a field with several records {days worked}, by group {name}. I have accomplished this by grouping by {name} and the result shows in the group bar. I want to use the results of this in another formula calculation, in a different table. Thank you in advance for any help. Steve

Hello, We are considering using Air WP Sync to sync data with our website for things like a directory, conference agenda, etc. However the Air WP Sync screenshots are only of the admin functions. For anyone currently using it- are you willing to share urls or screenshots of your pages?Thank you!
