Hi, I am trying to integrate Airtable in my local react.js application. I made a tool/template in Airtable now I want to integrate it into my local react app. I want this template to work for every particular logged-in user means the logged-in users can see their own space of my template whenever they logged in. for ex: I attached a very rough example of what I want to make: I want this table to be associated with the logged-in user is there any oAuth available to integrate the whole Airtable logged-user table to my react application like this instead of this table can I integrate my custom template/tool of airtable on my site ?

Hello to all, I have created dashboards that are automatically sent to my colleagues every Monday morning. However, I am only able to send them an email with the link to this dashboard. Would it be possible to integrate the dashboard in an email or a slack message? Or to export the dashboard as a pdf to attach it to the email? These questions answer two problems I’m dealing with: Extracting information from a dashboard at a specific time (PDF) for a monthly report To give more visibility to my dashboards, the link not being very attractive Thanks !

Hello! I will try to explain a situation to see if you can help me with some solution please. I have different bases for sports competitions. (Football Championship, Basketball Championship, Volleyball Championship, etc), and all these competitions share the same talents (narrators, commentators and producers). It would be great if this information were consolidated, converging on another base so that we could have an overview of the team’s overall roster, avoiding the same talent being called for different events on the same day and time. Is that clear? I’m a beginner in Airtable, I couldn’t think of an effective solution here yet. Remembering that I already use the base synchronization, so much that all these talents are in a single base of company employees, synchronized with all the other bases of Competitions (Products).

Is there any way to differentiate between tasks that have been completed with non-completed tasks in the calendar view?

Is there a way to use AirTable to send notes/messages/notifications to collaborators at a macro base level? I don’t want to message a collaborator about a specific record. I want to message the collaborator to go in and look at several tables in the base.

When you send a record as an email to someone, is there a way to see a history of the records that you have emailed from a certain base?

Are there any ways to automatically log phone calls and emails to airtable? I was trying to set up Zapier, but it failed over and over again, so I somehow had to give up on it after two days of trying :confused: Any suggestions are highly appreciated! Thanks!

I created a base with a form in the free version of Airtable. As is customary, when someone submitted a form, the information would populate in my base. The ED of my organization wanted to be able to view the base in Gantt view and has access to the pro version of Airtable, so she copied my base to her account and granted me access. However, when someone fills out a form, the information isn’t populating in the base she copied; the information only appears in the original base I created. Does anyone know how to get the information on the form to populate into the new base?

Hi- I know this probably has a really simple answer. But I have a new base with one table and when I go to my Grid View options, I don’t have “Form” as one of the options. All my other bases have the Form view as an option. I have a Pro Plan. Could someone tell me why I have no form option? Could it have something to do with using a synced field? Thanks! Lori

Hi, I have a rollup field in a table, and I want to limit which linked records are included in the rollup by a condition. Specifically, I am looking to get “this week’s data”. In my table where the rollup resides, I created a field to use the Weeknum() function and get the number of this week. Then, in my linked records I also have a Weeknum field. So, in the rollup, I want to only sum those linked records where the Weeknum field value in the linked record = the Weeknum field value in the table where the rollup field resides. But it doesn’t seem I can do that. I would have to update the condition each time I need to pull or review the weekly data and manually set it to the number of the week I’m looking for. Any ideas on how to accomplish what I’m trying to do? Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone, everything good? I’m facing a difficulty in extracting data from the airtable to the power bi free version, even using the api the power bi doesn’t do the extraction, can someone help me?

Hello, I’m looking for some help with a peculiar issue. I have a Calendar view set up and for some reason Monday and Tuesday are titled ‘My’ and ‘Kill’ respectively. All the other days are written correctly. I have no idea what is causing this. I have checked my browser location is correct, but can’t think of anything else. Can anyone advise on how to fix this? Thanks in advance!

Hey I have created a database that has lots of useful information about hundreds of careers for students. I want to add a public comments section where users of the database can engage with each other. Is there a way to make that happen? BTW I am planning to sell the database through Gumroad, where I have shared a read only link to the base. Feel free to let me know if you’ve any better ideas about the platform I should be selling it through. Thank you in advance!

I have a bunch of table linked to different events. I want to create a view that filters out all future events except for the next one. Anyway to do this without having to manually check and uncheck a box?

Hello Pretty new here and pretty new to database design. I have a 2 step user data entry process, with a separate table for each of the two steps. The first step asks a user via a webform to record their performance in an activity. In the second step, I want the web form to call up the data form the first entry/table and present it for the user to then answer more questions aimed at reviewing/assessing their own performance. I want this second step to be able to be done at a later time, on a separate sitting. In this case the user is only me, so this simplifies things. I want to be able to bring up a record on a front end, see the results of one entry and answer my assessment questions to be placed into a second table. Hope this makes sense and I appreciate the assistance. :slightly_smiling_face:

I can’t find the right one 。 btw，how to use the filter（like above image） by the [airtable.js ] [select api][ filterByFormula ].（I can’t find a suitable document） Please!

I have a long text put in a 「Single Line Text」 Cell，(Long Text Also like this)。 when the text into cell，then I see the cell change my text。 Here is the comparison： The top one is the original, the bottom one is the modified one。

Hi all, the XML import app works well for me in trying to import ONIX files - but: I can’t get the app to remember my mappings… Airtable Documentation just says “The app will remember your XPath mappings the next time you import an XML file.” Except it doesn’t… ;-p I am sure I am missing something really obvious?

I created a formula to add 3 weeks to a date that I capture elsewhere in my table, and added an IF blank statement, so if there is no date it won’t show anything: IF({Date Intake Completed}=BLANK(),0,DATEADD({Date Intake Completed},21,‘days’)) The formula is working, but the output format is not what I’d like: 2021-05-19T00:00:00.000Z, I would prefer 05-19-2021, or something like that. When I try to change the format though, I get this message: Your result type is not a number or a date. Formatting options are currently only available if your result type is a number or a date. The output is a date, so I am not sure why I am not given the option to update the format. Appreciate any help! I am new to Airtable and this is my 1st formula, so hoping I can get it working.

Hi! I apologize if this is a dumb question, but I’m really stuck. I have a column of dates and times that I am available for office hours that ultimately appear on a sign-up form. The way I’ve set it up, I have to manually copy and paste new dates and times from an autogenerator page that also exists in the base. I just want to be notified when I need to do this copy-paste process, which means that I need to find the maximum date in a column of dates and have an e-mail sent when I am near it. Is there a way to do this? A rollup isn’t what I need, since I’m not linking anything. It’s possible that the solution is “note the date and create your own reminder”, but I’d prefer automated if it is possible…

We’re using AirTable to track actions and filtering the todo list using a checkbox field titled “Completed”. I’d like to setup a new view that sorts the tasks with most recently completed at the top. Manually adding the “Completed date” isn’t an option as people will naturally forget to fill it in. I’ve looked down the list of available formulas but nothing jumps out as being suitable. Thanks in advance for any help.

I have a project table, which one project links to many tasks. In my task table I have a Blocked By, in which I can select previous tasks as blockers. When I click the + to add a blocking task, the resulting list is all tasks, of which there are many. Is there a way to limit the display to only tasks inside that project? I tried “Limit record selection to a view” but that means I would need to create a view for each project. Thoughts?

Hello all, I have a single select column named as “City” in all tables of a base. Now I want to have a sync between all “City” columns so that whenever I add a new city as an option it should be updated in all. Therefore there should be a option sync for single select column. Please share a solution to it. Thanks

Hi! Currently I am developing dashboards for customers. The apps/chart will be displayed on a wordpress page using html code generated by Airtable “share”-function. Currently the interaction function prevents me from doing this. I don’t want the customer to be able to see all the records when they click on the chart. Conclusion: I only want to show the graph and not the underlying data. How can I do that?

I didn’t find a way to do that via formula.
