Hello everyone, More than 3 years ago, we started using airtable to keep track of supplier invoices. We basically enter some invoice-related information and at the end we attach a photo of the invoice. Previously, this was a great solution, but phones are getting better, so our invoice uploads (photos) are getting bigger and bigger. I have spoken with Airtable support and this was their response: “Thanks for writing in! Unfortunately, there isn’t a way to optimize the image size; however, I would recommend using an external source like dropbox and upload the link there to upload it in Airtable for storage space!” We primarily use iPhones and our database now contains more than 1500 records. We use an iPhone app and enter the invoices manually. Opening attachments is slow, so we are trying to find a solution. It would be great if Airtable could have an option to optimize photo attachments, but that isn’t the case at the moment. Could you please share any ideas on how to resolve this iss
If I change the record order in Gallery view - it doesn’t reflect in the original grid view. Why the heck not? e.g. I have these rows: Point #1 Point #2 Point #3 In gallery view I change the order to: Point #1 Point #3 Point #2 When going back to grid view - I still see the original order - #1, #2, #3 Is there something I’m missing? Thanks, Rashid.
I want the text and fields of my form to display wider, but I can’t seem to affect the size of the margins within the form container…maybe it is related to the max-width? Help! https://www.assetleadership.net/2021-restructuring-america/
Hi there facing some issues with Aritable. The page is not loading. Please resolve the issues
Hi all, I’m facing an issue with a form that I’m trying to embed in my website (wordpress based). As you can see in the screenshot, the form is correctly embedded but does n ot scroll. Even if I set the autosize option, It seems to be blocked to a defined height that I can’t setup.
I’ve seen a few things that are similar but I’m still not getting my formula to work and I’ve tried a lot of different iterations of the formula with no luck. What I’m trying to do Fields: Pos Chg, 6 Mo Pos If Pos Chg < 0 AND 6 Mo Pos < 10 then I want to say “TOP” If Pos Chg > 0 AND 6 Mo Pos < 10 then I want to say “Good” Otherwise blank IF (AND ( {POS chg from Pre-Post} < 0, {POS 6 MO POST} < 10), “TOP”, IF ( {POS 6 MO POST} < 10, “Good”, “”) Any help is greatly appreciated.
Based on Calendar view of birthdays - #27 by Katherine_Duh, I thought I could use a formula for a calendar view. However, it seems like we cannot- which is the case? The use case here is that we have an imported spreadsheet of dates text string format and a user who prefers to see them that way (?). I am happy to manually redo them for now and reversing the formula, but before diving in, want to make sure that’s necessary.
Hi there! I have a base that has several summary blocks included to summarize the data. When I create a shareable link to the base, the apps/blocks in the panel on the right do not show up in the shared link. Does anybody know how to do this? The link below says there should be a “Show apps added to this base” option when creating a shareable link, but I do not see it. I am on the Pro plan so I assume I would have it if it were still available. Airtable Support Creating a shareable apps dashboard You might find yourself in the situation where you'd like to share a base's apps dashboard; but without allowing access to the base, or app configurations themselves. In this scenario, we recommen... Any help would be appreciated!
I’m trying to update a multiple select field based on info from an api. There’s 30 some values that will either be Yes or blank. If it’s yes, its works fine and puts the correct value, but gives an error if it tries to add nothing to the multi select field. What I’ve tried so far: {{if(206.record.animalDrools = “Yes”; “Drools”; )}} {{if(206.record.animalDrools = “Yes”; “Drools”; null)}} {{if(206.record.animalDrools = “Yes”; “Drools”; emptystring)}} * Doesn’t fail but doesnt leave it completely blank either
Is this possible? It seems like it should be so simple but I can’t figure out how to pass a variable collected on a form onto the next form for the purpose of pre-population??
I have to go to each table to enable or disable Notification. I want to set all notification preferences across all workspace and all bases in multiple workspace from one place. Is there a way to set notification preference at user level from one place for all bases across all workspaces?
Sorry, but Airtable was recommended as a solution to my question in Elementor Community. Can’t find the answer on the site. So here goes. is airtable a database that is a plugin on Wordpress/Elementor sites? I need to create a database of 200 videos that can be sorted by category and level of difficulty. I see the templates here but nowhere do I see how to put that into my site. Not sure if Airtable is my best choice. Thanks
I want only current records to show in a view. There doesn’t seem to be a way to filter for “date created after dateX”, so I figure I can create a field that says “yes” if the date created is after whatever date I put in, then filter on that field. But what would be the formula for saying, "If ‘date created’ is after September 13, “yes”, “no”)? Thanks!
Hi I’m trying to figure out how to have my form reroute to another page within my website once it has been submitted. Thank you
Hey everyone! I’m creating a column in a table where I’m concatenating a date field (formula driven), client name and default text. The result of the concatenate is adding an extra day to the formula driven date. Below is the formula and I uploaded an image of the dates reflecting the additional day. Any insight on what’s causing this? It’s so weird! Formula in the concatenate field: CONCATENATE(DATETIME_FORMAT({Monthly Rental Fee Renewal Date},‘MM-DD-YY’)," | “,{Client Name},” | ",“Rental Fee Renewal Date”) Formula in the original date field (correct): DATEADD({Staging Date},32,‘days’) Two screenshots are provided: One with the correct dates and the other with the dates that include an additional day.
How do I add risk management into a project? For example: I have a timeframe, and assign a risk, which gives me a pessimistic and optimistic view of time padded onto the start/end date. I’ve seen this in other tools, where it changes the color, so the center block is assigned, to the left is optimistic, and right is pessimistic.
In the simplest terms possible as I am not an Excel freak…when I export the grid data to a CSV or google sheet, the date and time always comes through like this 2021-09-24T07:30:00.000Z (which originally was input from Adelaiade Australia as 24/9/21 1700). How can I write a formula to seperate 2021-09-24T07:30:00.000Z into 24/09/2021 and 07:30? Any help would be great as this is a huge issue at the moment.
Hi community, I have managed to create a synced table from a Salesforce “Revenue report” that I am going to combine with data from other sources. Part of that report is the revenue number that is listed in USD, but when I look at the synced data in Airtable, it shows up in the local currency, in my case NOK. Somewhere in the sync, the data is converted through a factor or source that I have no control over to the local currency. It is also missing three digits… For example; a 10 000,00 USD deal shows up as NOK 85.00, which should be NOK 85 000,00 (but according to Nordea (A Norwegian bank) it should be NOK 83 690). As we are usually talking about our deals in USD anyway, I was wondering if there is a possibility to disable this conversion from happening?
I have always been able to expand records and print them by using Ctrl P. For the last few days, when I go to this screen, it will only give option to print the first page. The other pages do not show in the print dialog.
Not looking to move to another workspace within the same account. Had been doing collaborative work under one account but due to agreement ending need to separate existing bases under two separate Airtable accounts.
what formula can I run against a text field that will display all text characters up to a “,”. Example: TEXT1, TEXT2 Result: TEXT1
Whether I use print record or command p – and whether I use Chrome or Safari – and whether it’s to PDF, export to PDF or print to my physical printer, my expanded record print operation is only printing ONE page of the record fields. Back in June, I have an older version of my app that contains an uploaded PDF of a record, and all of the data is present and that file has all of the fields in it. Something, apparently, has changed, but I can’t figure it out. Thanks.
Hello, Question about Table, not forms. I want the select field to throw some sort of an error if another field (required) is not complete? How is that possible? Thanks
Hi My ex-VA moved some key data of mine from Excel to Airtable. I have access to the airtable table, and I need to continue to work on it. The VA left me because she caught COVID and I now cannot contact her. The table does not permit copying. How can I move the data either to my Airtable account or to an external tool? With thanks Gill
I am trying to count the number of values entered in each cell of a column, just so that I can perform certain automation. like for example, if the column name is 'Colleagues" and the first row in this column contains three names of colleagues. Then how can I automatically detect that there are 3 names/values entered in this cell?
