I’m attempting to use the XML app, and after I drag in the XML file, it requests an XPath. Is there a way to figure out what the Xpath might be just by looking at the XML file? I saw another answer in which nested data was going to prove problematic. The example that Airtable provides in their documentation doesn’t show the imported XML file, so I’m not able to figure it out by that example (XML import app – Airtable Support) The data that I’m attempting to import is the data filed with the SEC to show stock ownership. A sample, such as this one from Berkshire Hathaway, is here: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1067983/000095012321002786/0000950123-21-002786-3286.xml Really appreciate any help here. I attempted things like “InformationTable” and “\InfoTable” (without the quotes of course) and other variations of those things, and Airtable didn’t recognize any of them.

I built a tool that syncs Airtable to Webflow without fussy zaps or tedious integrations. You simply map your Airtable columns to your Webflow CMS fields and click sync! It’s the perfect solution if you want full design control of your website with Webflow, but want the power of Airtable as your backend. It takes care of all the complicated tasks of keeping them in sync and converting and syncing your Airtable data into your Webflow CMS. Detect new, modified, or deleted records in Airtable and update Webflow accordingly Convert Airtable Rich-Text fields into HTML for Webflow’s Rich Text fields Convert links between Airtable records into Reference/Multi-Reference fields in Webflow Set Option fields in Webflow based on values from Airtable Generate embed code for YouTube links for your Webflow Video fields Upload Airtable image fields into Webflow Image fields Here’s a demo of me creating a job board in under 10 minutes. Unlike many Airtable apps, you don’t need a PRO account to use

I’d like an easy/simple way to share read-only views of a half-dozen tables and a few blocks. How do I share some tables in a workspace, but not others, and how do I make sure that the blocks are also shared correctly? This is just to give a specific user a read-only report of their relevant data.

I want to know if it is possible to unlink the records from my calendar and grid. I am trying to plan my social media content in the calendar but want to create specific posts on the grid. Is this possible?

Hi all, I use Airtable to be the database of my Webflow website (through syncing via powerimporter). One of the important field is a rich text field (a summary for a marketing resource). It’s great that we can include links, but my problem is that I need a link that could be “relative” and send to a specific section of the page (marked with an id like "). The problem is that it seems Airtable automatically adds “http://” to whatever I type ("#example4" in this example). Is there a workaround? Thanks! Sylvain

Does anyone know a script that I can use as follows: 1) take a field that has a string of 10-12 Comma Separated Values (CSV) and 2) randomize the order of those 10-12 values? I’m not a technical person, so I’m sorry if this is a rudimentary question…

Hi Airtablers! We have a lot of helpers from WWOOF & WorkAway. We have a capacity of a maximum of 10 people at a time and I need a good overview to not be overbooking at any time. We have an arrival and departure date, so we can see how many people we have each day in the calendar view. But it is not an easy overview. I would like a chart on a dashboard. But how do I get a count for each day of how many people are booked, so I can make the chart? All the best :high_brightness: James Family in the Forest

We are using SendGrid and want to insert a field into the email. We’re able to do it, but since our field has multiple values, the results are that all of the entries get listed one after another which makes it very difficult to read. Is it possible to set this so that there’s a line-wrap to make each piece of data coming from that field appear on a separate line? Thanks

Hello! Is it possible to change the text color of some fields in the form via e.g. script?

For example, I notice it seems possible to create a table and link a form to it in order to gather the data. What added benefit is there say here to using an MS Form and Excel? I would just like an idea of the potential benefit before investing too much time researching Airtable. Many thanks. PS. For context my job role so use of the software would be for managing and coordinating projects.

Uploaded Excell spreadsheet satisfactorily, but when press Upload, it says ’ An Error has Occurred, Sorry your request conflicted with another change’. This occurred a couple of times with the first Sheet being imported but then it suddenly it worked ok, despite not changing anything. Trying to import into another Sheet in the same Airtable Table it unfortunately just keeps on repeating the error message.

Importing spreadsheet from Excell, Column headings ignored, first data row below Excell column headings are taken as the Airtable sheet headings. Ok headings can be manually corrected in Airtable but as there are over 50 columns, that’s a bit tedious. What might be gong wrong, any solutions?.

Hi all– I have a function that requires a rollup to concatenate values in numerical order. But I can’t seem to control how the rollup is determining the sequence. I’m basically using this type of logic: Either: Display X most recent linked records OR Display all linked record up to a year prior to most recent record - #2 by Justin_Barrett And yes, I want to show the last three records… but the rollup function is aggregating the results in a weird sequence. The result is that it gets the last 3 entries according to the rollup, but it’s not actually the last 3. It sometimes throws an entry out of order, although for the most part the results seem to be as predicted. Hmm.

Used the page designer to do an 84-page presentation to a client. Then tried to save this presentation (single pages) as a pdf using Mac (running Catalina). It initially created a pdf but then gave an error message when I tried to open it saying I needed to “Save as Adobe PDF” because the file was corrupted. When I tried again and saved as Adobe PDF nothing happened. Every time I try the Airtable app screen goes black or freezes and I have to force quit and start over. ADDENDUM: I am able to create a pdf in the web version of Airtable, just not when using the app. Additional question - is there a way to retain live links.

Super newbie question, but hoping someone can help! I have a table with about 15 fields. I would like two of these fields (full name and email) to be synced to a DIFFERENT table, so I can easily export to CSV these two fields ONLY for email newsletters. What is the easiest way to do this? Thank you!!

Please read and consider. There are NO iPhone apps that do this. Can Airtable be designed to perform this ? ----/ I would really like to have a new shareable, cloud-based, private , encrypted iPhone contacts app that has these major points of functionality. Ability to share the app itself and its contacts a. Share the app to a family group b. Share the app to members of a club, or to specific employees c. Share its online, encrypted database of contacts to those in these groups d. This online contacts database would be completely separate, standalone from all the other contacts databases (Gmail, iCloud, etc). e. Possibly import from other Contacts to this contact database. f. While I personally would like a iPhone contacts app so that I can share people, companies, and facts to family members, I believe that many organizations would also desire this capability. Security levels a. Each contact in the database would have a clearance or accessibility level. b. There would be several

Hello how are you? I work with lead capture and a lead has 2 types of registrations. Simple registration with name, email and phone; Complete registration with simple and other information such as age, sex, profession and etc; By default, the capture is only with simple information, but I would like to create an automation with the Record URL for the lead to complete the registration. I saw some prefill form solutions, but when testing, I saw that a new record is created, I would just like to ‘complete’ the lead’s unique record.

This seems like it should be intuitive but I can’t find the info. I have a field with two lines of text, formatted as “long text.” I want to convert that field to “multiple select” so that each line of text becomes an option. However, when I convert, only the first line of text remains. How can I retain both Item1 and Item2 when converting?
