Hey! I am struggling to search records in integromat. I have a table with field Status and Last Modified Status autofield. When I try to fetch data with integromat with formula everything is ok: ({Last Modified Status}) but when I add condition to the formula: ({Last Modified Status} <= "{{addDays(now; -30)}}") it fails with: The formula for filtering records is invalid: Unknown field names: last modified status I also tried this formula with the same error: IS_AFTER({Last Modified Status}, "{{addDays(now; -30)}}") Any ideas how to fix this error?

I’ve been spending all week looking at Airtable and trying out options. I’m very impressed and excited to use its features. I’m also impressed with this forum. Many knowledgeable people here. I am needing some help and I think those more experienced might be able to point me in the right direction. I don’t mind putting in the hard work and learning it, but this is so robust I don’t know how best to start. To give some context, I design t-shirts. I currently have about 500 live designs between three different POD’s (Print-on-Demand) companies. I plan to start scaling up to around 2000 (or more) designs this year and I foresee Airtable really helping me stay organized. I only need to worry about design and uploading the artwork. They handle all the printing, ordering, shipping, etc. That means I can create one art file and use that same file for several different t-shirt printing platforms. I don’t have to worry about tracking multiple files of the same design. Currently, my thought it t

After accidentally deleting a field, we can restore it via undelete or snapshot. HOWEVER, the deleted field was referenced by a ‘last modified date’ field. When the deleted field is restored from Trash, the last modified date is set to the current date/time for all records. I understand this is expected behavior. but I’m looking for a workaround. Using the snapshot, we can recover the original ‘last modified date’, but there are two remaining problems: We want to continue to use the original base as it has various integrations that we’d rather not rebuild; if we do an export from the restored snapshot and import into the original base, the last modified time will be off again. any records that were changed after the snapshot must be edited again after restoring from snapshot and will not have the accurate modified time stamp. Is there a way to keep the time stamps for the restored records on import? And is there a way to fix the time stamp for those recently updated records? Thanks.

Hello everyone! I am a University student, and am currently working with a start-up whose web service allows for the creation of internal websites using Airtable as a backend (e.g., can display Airtable data to customers in a web format). We are hoping to gain a better understanding of the ways in which people use Airtable, and so would love it if anyone was able to jump on a quick phone call. Please feel free to email me on rishabh.dhawan@businessoneunimelb.edu.au if you are interested. Thank you!

Hi! On a form I’m trying to create, I’m trying to ask users their first preferred date for a booking. However, I would need the date field to only allow users to select a date at least 3 business days out from the current date that the user is filling out/viewing the form. Is this a feature that is available, or is there a user friendly work around for this?

I am having a problem retrieving values when linking one table to another. I made a video showing the issue (as it is easier to show it then to explain it).

Hello Until I perform the upgrade, is there a risk of my data being deleted from the base? Or data may not be saved?

Is there any limit to the number of fields in a base? Also is there a limit to the number of entries that can be put in a Multiple Select field (I am wanting to transfer (one at a time) some 80,000 records from a desktop database which has approximately 250 fields and in the process rethink how i want the information presented. Whether the finished layout will also have circa 250 fields i don’t know but what I don’t want to find as i progress that I have reached AT’s limit.) tia

Hi, My script is working OK but make some red marks where shouldn’t be (i think). the script is quite complex and divided into parts, designed to work in different bases, related to old tables inventory and cleanup, so I avoid hardcoding Table/Names outside of beginning const values Here, it marks red for ‘FinalTableX’ not existed in base, but not marks if I put ‘FinalTable’ existed. I think that’s incorrect behaviour, because that piece is intended to “check table, create if not exist or use existing”, maybe remains from past months, before great breaktrough with create table by script. I think, same with fields. Commented function also cause marking FIELDS, i changed it because i suddenly need second field to be Multitext. Including text source const FIELDS=[‘Name’,‘List’,‘Info’,‘button’]; const ROOTTABLE=‘FinalTable’; let tableNames=base.tables.map(table=>table.name); if (!tableNames.includes(ROOTTABLE)) { //createRootTable; const tableId = await base.createTableAsync(ROOTTABLE

How does AT sort (address) numbers that also have a suffix letter? For example, 2A, 2B, etc. To overcome the sorting problem for addresses in a Filemaker desktop database I use, I have a separate field alongside the address number in which I enter the address number in numerical formal only and use that separate field for sorting. For example, 2.1, 2,2, etc. tia

Hi so I’m pretty new to airtable and I was wondering the following: We have a CRM with a Leads Table and a Sales Calls table. The sales calls now have linked fields to the names of the leads. But I would like to be able to adjust the status of a lead in the Sales Calls table as well. However, I see that when I use a lookup field, it only get the status from the Leads Table, and I’m not allowed to adjust the status in the Sales Calls Table. Is there a solution for this, so that the two are linked and I’m able to change them in either table? Thanks!

Hi! I decided to try all the airtable automation power and upgraded to PRO plan. During 1 hour I realized that such automation is not necessary for me now and returned to the free plan. After that, I lost all my credits. How is this possible?

Hi - First time posting and not a beginner but no where near a pro at airtable but I am trying to include the images of my rental products in the list that populates on my form. I have a field where visitors can request individual or multiple pieces of equipment and it would be great if they could see the product they’d be renting. I’m not sure why it shows images on the backend side of Airtable but then when you go to the front facing link, it only shows the text. I have included screenshots of what I’m talking about but can anyone shed any light on if including images to my rental products is possible?

I have a list of people and their dates of birth. I’d like to know if that birthday falls in the current month. Right now, I have a column, the formula of which is IS_SAME({55th Birthday},TODAY()), which indicates if that birthday is today, but I’d like to see everyone in the list who turns 55 next month. So, in September, the October 55th birthdays are indicated; in October, the November 55th birthdays will be flagged; and so forth. Then, I’d like to have a column which shows the first business day of that month so that, using Zapier, I can pass that date on to my CRM. So, in the view I’m going to create, I’d like to see, in October, everyone who turns 55 in November, and I’ll want a column with the first business day in November.

Would love some troubleshooting advice. I have always been able to manually drag records to reorder them in grid view. Suddenly I’m not able to move the records. I searched help, and the community questions, and saw that I should look at whether I have a sort indicated or locked. I looked, and I don’t. Anyone know what else I can do to be able to reorder records again? Thank you!
