Bonjour,J'arrive bien à récupérer des données AIRTABLE d'une première tables ainsi que les champs d'une table liée à la première, mais le niveau au-dessous semble ne pas fonctionner.Comme indiqué dans la documentation et la vidéo explicative sur DOCUMINT, comme pour la première Table liée, je crée un champ Fx nommé "Lien_Table3 Table_Id" avec la valeur "TableID".Sur DOCUMINT, j'indique bien le Repeat / Loop sur chaque enregistrements de "Lien_Table3".Sur le lien de génération du PDF, j'indique bien "...expand=2..".Mais aucun affichage du champ souhaité.Qu'est-ce qui pourrait bloquer ?A-t-on une limitation de niveau avec la version gratuite de Documint ?Merci pour votre aide !Stéphane Suite à mon achat de la formation "Générer des documents avec Documint", j'ai pu avancer sur de l'automatisation de génération de document. En revanche, la récupération d'objets dans les champs liés (à plus d'1 niveau), n'a pas l'air de fonctionner. Je crée pourtant bien un champ fonction "Champ_

Hello,I'm able to retrieve AIRTABLE data from a first table as well as fields from a table linked to the first one, but the level below doesn't seem to work.As indicated in the documentation and the explanatory video on DOCUMINT, as for the first linked table, I create an Fx field named “Lien_Table3 Table_Id” with the value “TableID”.On DOCUMINT, I indicate the Repeat / Loop on each “Lien_Table3” record.On the PDF generation link, I indicate “...expand=2...”.But no display of the desired field.What could be wrong?Is there a level limitation with the free version of Documint?Thanks for your help!Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

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?

I am creating a new module of airtable in make.com. However every time I try its uses the name of the earlier connection. I want to have a new connection with a fresh name. why is this happening?

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!

Hi Airtable!Can you please give the community an update on when dark mode will be implemented in the upcoming New Feature Spotlight on March 8, 2023?Maybe it could fit in the visibility section of the presentation.We're waiting. And we're not recommending this app without it.

Hello, I work at a nonprofit using Airtable’s Team plan. We recently had a coworker leave but she didn’t delete her account before she left and I’d like to delete it now so she no longer shows up on our user drop downs, etc. She now has read-only access to everything she was formerly editing, etc. so she doesn’t show up on our billable collaborators list. Is the best way to have her account deleted to reach out to support? Is there any other way we can close down her account? Thank you for your help!

How do i filter records with same tag (like status = ‘Active’ in a multi-select column) inside the multiple tables ( within the same base ) ? I want to see the filtered records in another view maybe ?

Hi friends! I work for a cleaning company and we are trying to find a better way to manage our cleaning supply inventory better. We currently have a complicated situation where our cleaners need to notify us when they need cleaning supplies, we then move it to a master list, and then onto a distribution list. Cleaners often will forget to ask for a product and are in need of something so they’ll ask to grab something the day of. This always messes with our ordering process as sometimes it will be so busy when they come in, we forget to mark it down and we’ll run out of products faster than expected. Wondering if there is a way through airtable to scan the barcode and have it automatically subtract one from the master inventory.

Hello everyone, I am looking for barcode readers for my company, has anyone used the services of hdwr? I’m thinking of buying these readers https://hdwr.eu/en/products/30/barcode-reader-hd73 anyone recommending?

Hi, each record in my table has an email address {email} and photo {photo}. For each record, I’d like to send the record’s photo to the record’s email address. Is there a way to do this using SendGrid? I’ve tried turning on “Send as HTML” and doing <img src="{photo}"> but doesn’t work as {photo} is replaced by “filename (url-to-file)” when I only want url-to-file.

Hi dear folks, I want to ask a solution suggestion on Barcode solution that our company is trying to build the inventory list which we want each item has its own barcode (any code type including QR), and we can scan it and locating its place. I would want to ask: 1). which is the best barcode generation system? anything can be better integrated to airtable? 2). which scanner we should purchase? or just using our iphone? thanks for your answering.

Hi there 🙂I have a base for keeping track of inventory for a warehouse. I'm using barcodes. I have a home table that gives an overview and stock count. There's also a table that logs every movement (in and out of items). I add a movement to the log by linking to the home table stock item that's identified by its barcode. On my phone, I can search for the item I need to link to by using my camera to scan it's actual barcode but this isn't possible with all devices. All I need to know is which tablets are able to do this as well. I'm struggling to figure this out as I need to get a tablet for my warehouse that's able to do what my phone can (without having to purchase an ipad because they're too expensive). Could someone please advise me on more affordable tablets that are able to do this? 

Hi For some reason when I try to fill-out a form, when I scan a barcode, the form does not recognize it.  I scan a barcode that reads LE100 and it will just give me the first item that's embedded in the form. And this does not happen when I use the form in the edit view nor does it happen on any other base or view. Only on the actual form does it not work correctly. The scanner works, I tried filling out the form on different computers, I refreshed the form or exit it out and open another one. We have been using the scanner for almost a year now and it worked so I have no idea why all of a sudden it's not working now. I have no idea what could possible be wrong and would like help. 

Please have pity on an absolute newbie. I have been tasked with creating an inventory control system for a community theatre’s extensive prop inventory. What I would like to do is create barcodes for each item, and then devise a simple way to check them in and out. I am confused by the airtable app barcode function - it appears to allow me to scan barcodes only when creating records. Can I use it to scan the actual item in the warehouse and pull up the existing record? In a perfect world, our users would be able to go to the warehouse, pull out half a dozen items, scan them and have the inventory location move from it’s designated shelf to a “checked out to:______________” status. Can I get there from here, or do I need to seek another solution? Cheers, Randy Storms Newport Performing Arts Center Newport, Oregon USA

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
