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!!
For the past few days, I have been trying to upgrade my account from Free to Pro. However, whenever I click on the upgrade button, I get the “An error has occurred message”. I need to urgently upgrade to the Pro plan, I have already send out numerous requests to the support team, but to no avail - does anyone know how to fix this?
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?
I would like to use scan barcode feature in Airtable. I created a form and shared the “shareable” link of the form with another person. But he was not able to scan a barcode with the link on his phone. Only if he logs in to the app and I make him creator or editor, he was able to scan a barcode. Is there a way to make it work with the link because I don’t want to share the base with him.
Both yesterday and today, I’ve had problems with AirTable freezing up, and being unable to update records etc. The program does not respond to keystrokes ad I have to force-quit to get out of it. Anyone else having this? How do I fix this?
I’m absolutely loving the vega-lite app. Any chance we can get upgraded to vega-lite v5?
Quick question. I have a series of classes and I’m trying to display as well as track multiple time zones as our courses are led by different instructors across various timezones, so we list all three that we deal with. What would be the best way to deal with this(also so that Google Calendar will recognize it) Right now I just have them set up as text fields. Is there a way for it to display timezone based on the user’s(like myself) ? I want it to show up in a calendar properly in my time zone(PST). I’ll just let the pic show you what I mean :).
Hello - I’m new to Airtable and having trouble configuring a custom date field. I would like to have a date field with MM-YYYY format (01-2021). This is for a large dataset and records do not have a full dd-mm-yyyy date available (only month and year). Is it possible to create a custom format for the date field type? Thanks in advance for any tips.
Hi! Our team uses a collective base for task tracking, but folks are interested in being able to house both those tasks and their own separate to-dos in a separate base. Our initial thought was to have everyone create an individual base that would pull in their to-dos from the team bases via a synced table, but the issue is that they are then unable to add additional records to those tables for their own personal to-dos. Any suggestions?
Hello, I’m building a table to track sales and inventory. Each product has a number of components, and sales/resupplies impact the total inventory of components. For instance chair 1 = 1 wood structure + 1 leather canvas chair 2 = 1 wood structure + 1 velvet canvas So a product can have multiple components, and a single component can be found in different products. I think this qualifies as a many to many relationship, as explained by the airtable guide. I built a quick prototype, and managed to do so without using a junction table, and it seems to work just fine. Why is that? By bypassing the junction table, am i missing something that might become a problem down the road? You’ll find the table in read only here: Sign up - Airtable thanks cedric
