Hi there I currently use airtable as my delivery fulfillment hub for virtual video game items where i have multiple staff take and fulfill orders via Kaban View. The process is the record comes into a view and the first person who changes that operator name to theirs gets to take that order. The problem comes where there is latency and multiple people click and take that order within the same second, it will override the true initial person to change the field, also its possible for them to change it after the fact (the airtable history does not work well if it all happens within the same second or one staff has higher latency then the other i think) I want to know if this is possible to build then I will look for an app developer to help. The problem comes with latency, the app would need to have some parameters built into it where it will know what the field was changed to FIRST then override and prevent it from being changed again within the next few seconds

When I send the record to my colleague’s email, emails with different subjects are merged into one of the recipient’s inbox. How would I resolve this?

How can I export a view in a tab-delimited format? CSV messes with columns that have commas within them, like product titles and product descriptions. I tried searching the forums here and asking about how to make CSV work, but then it occurred to me that a tab-delimited format might be the solution. The online marketplace I work with does accept those. Copy/pasting won’t work because (a) we have to update everyday and (b) some marketplaces [like Amazon] have over 150 fields to fill [setting up formulas to fill many of them].

I have set up a simple applicant tracker template with a form. The form is working, but I cannot find how to view or edit the form. I made a short 2 part video overview. Question Part I:

Hi, Is it possible to generate a link to the gantt app? I need to share this view embedded in a channel in MS Teams.

Hi, i created a map sync with a “stores” table. the stores are not placed at the right adresses.

Currently trying to integrate Airtable with Wordpress and the css selectors within the iframe don’t seem to be adjustable. I’ve tried: .sharedForm{background:#0d0d0d!important;} .formFieldAndSubmitContainer {background-color:#0d0d0d!important} .airtable-embed header {background-color:#0d0d0d!important} #modalContainer {background-color:#0d0d0d!important} .sharedForm .status { background-color:#141517!important;} .formContent {background-color:#0d0d0d!important;} None of these do anything. Anyway, I see that a few contact forms are integratable via a plugin called Zapier. However it seems these all cost quite a bit of money (200 a year for the wp Forms plan that includes Zapier). Are there any other solutions for this? Can anyone suggest a more afford

Hi there! So, I am in a weird position where one of my collaborators is randomly deleting text records whenever she opens certain records in a base. She said she’s not clicking anything (but in the activity bar, it keeps saying she’s removing all the information). It doesn’t make any sense at all because to delete something… it’s an active thought. Has anyone experienced this?

I am new to Airtable and creating a database that is viewable to the public. Is there anyway to track how many people are using/viewing the database? Thanks.

Okay this is my formula it seems pretty self explanatory as to what I’m trying to accomplish here. So what am i doing wrong? {Final Price} * 1.15

This morning, I found in my table that two of my field types had change. One was the primary key that had been a complicated formula and now is a simple text field. Another had been a link to another field and is now a date field. How do I find out why this happened? How do I undo it? How do I find out who did it or at least who was logged in at time that it happened?

this always happens on google chrome, and microsoft edge.

I thought for sure I saw Airtable just added the new feature that we could finally link between bases - but now I can’t find it anywhere. Here’s my specific query: I have lots of film and TV projects in development set up in their own individual bases (so I can share project-specific info ONLY with the partners on each project) BUT the lay of the land research as to who the players are is “universal” - and constantly changing! LOL! I have master proprietary bases that I maintain for myself (full of my own internal research and private notes on 1) financing/distribution prospects; 2) Actors (prospective cast) - etc. that I parse-share with my partners, clients, students and readers of my books on an as-needed/as-relevant-basis - that I don’t want to share 100% with ANYBODY! BUT… I want to be able to link my master proprietary financier/distributor prospect base (say for easy example purposes: Netflix, HBO and AMC as commissioning leads for several d

I would like to collaborate with an external user. The use case is getting candidate feedback from the external user on the same candidate tracker. Right now, the external user has access to an embedded view that works well, but they are unable to comment in the fields.

Is there a way to show all the fields with the field descriptions? I love the idea of the base schema app but in its current form it’s too difficult to understand. I want a way to “introduce” new users to the base and show them how it’s set up–but since we’re constantly iterating on our table designs, creating some kind of static document that keeps up with all the fields and what we’re using them for is nearly impossible. I’d really like a way to pull all the table names and descriptions, and fields and descriptions, and export/display them somehow. Is there a way to do this?

I have a table with a Main view (which has no filters) and a secondary view (which has some filters) I want to examine the history of a particular record to see when it first showed up in the secondary view. Is this possible?

I tried to downgrade to a free account and the submit button is grayed out. I try to remove my credit card and message says downgrade account. I tried to do all this yesterday and today I have been rebilled. I sent an email to support and it advised me to post on the community.

Hi there, Looking for advice on how individual members of our design team can set up their personal views to properly keep track of their own jobs. We are currently filtering by designer We are sorting by status last modified date (tells us when the job was sent back to us) We are grouping by priority: RUSH vs normal However, we seem to be lacking a way that the individual can further order their jobs in a meaningful way, without adding columns or data that will affect the main table as a whole (which is shared with the whole marketing and design team). Is there a way for me to flag certain jobs, and I’m the only one who sees that in my personal view? Is there a way for me to assign a 1-5 sub-priority order or somehow push certain jobs to the top of my list and push others down? That sort of thing. The key here is to have it only affect each personal view. Thanks for any advice!

I’m using the “Find Record” feature inside Zapier. There is a specific “Search Formula” field that theoretically should allow you to query your Airtable Base with specific criteria. Inside my base I have 6 Names that I’d like for the formula to query and select one at random. Here is a screenshot of the field I’m talking about…https://thoinfo.link/5OcjtX Is this possible?

I need to be able to update existing fields and create new records using a much more complex form than what Airtable currently offers. I need something more like an old-school multi-tabbed MS Access form, or to be able to view Airtable data through that style of interface. This is for internal record keeping, not client interface. I can’t do it with the available view formats in Airtable, and all of the alternative forms (Word Press, Google, Formstack) seem to use the same simple format as an Airtable form. Each form would correspond to a variety of chemical sampling performed for a client on a given day. I need multiple tabs for different sample types for each, and to display calculated values based on values entered. Is there a two-way on-demand sync with Google sheets or Excel that update Airtable from multiple sheets, and vice-versa? Any other ideas?

Hi everyone, I’m trying to create a page similar to the GDE Directory page (https://developers.google.com/community/experts/directory) where you can filter by regions on the map and see the list of people as blocks below the map. We have the map block working, but not sure how to go about showing them in a list of images below the map. Or even to show them on the map but not with all the data, so I need to hide some fields. Is there a way to do this or will this require writing a custom script? Is there something that already exists? Is there someone that is familiar with this and willing to create it as a quick freelance project? Thank you!

Hello! I’ve been using Airtable for some months but now, I need to get deeper! I have 3 tables. Opportunities - hundreds of products Customers - hundreds of them Matching Today, when a customer is interested in an opportunity, I fill a record within the customer line. I would like to build a pipeline (kanban) with a unique that allows me to make a followup on every opportunity that matched with a client. I’ve used automation that works fine when there’s only a match by opportunity. When there are more than one, no line is created. You will find below an example of my current CRM. Is possible to create a new id that represented every matched ? Thanks for your help!
