Might there be a way to add an option to an embed block to snapshot and convert the embed to a jpg and store that? We use embed blocks to show graphs of current % completion of various task, once we hit a threshold it would be nice to be able to snapshot that embed block and store the result on that date. Probably would store it something like 4 or 5 times as we cross thresholds on a project. Currently the views on those days are lost or have to be manually snapshot and saved elsewhere.

Hi Everyone! I am just learning to use Integromat because I need to automatically (once a day) pull information from a service called Steam Spy and update records in Airtable. I’m new to Integromat but have a little experience using other trigger-based automation services such as Airtable Automations and Microsoft Power Automate. Steam Spy API information - output is in JSON Integromat’s Instructions in using HTTP module for API Basic flow I’ve configured, no idea if this is right: I haven’t done much inside any of these modules yet besides enter a test link from the

Until yesterday Typeform -> Aitable direct integration was working well. From yesterday it does not work the uploading of images (from the “attachment” field of Typeform into the “attachment” field of Airtable). Everything it is automatically imported excluding the images. On the contrary, Airtable Typeform app works well. Anybody with the same problem? RColasanti

Hello Airtable Community! I just started to use the Automation feature and I’ve run into some challenges. I am NOT a developer and my Airtable base is used as a CRM for sales. What I am trying to accomplish is every time I update a specific field (Follow Up Date) within an individual record (trigger), I want to create a google calendar event for the specific date that I enter within the Follow Up Date field. As I attempted to put this automation together, I realized that the automation is doing what I asked it to do but not what I want it to do. I’ve learned that the information that I enter in the Follow Up Date is completely irrelevant because the trigger is fired on the event itself and not on the data within that field. That is my first issue. When the trigger fires, a google calendar event will be added based on the start date and end date that I select within the action and NOT by the date I have entered in the Follow Up

I am working on a recall list by quarter. I am having trouble with figuring out a formula that will group the recall date by quarter but only if the status is “active”. Can someone help? I just can’t figure this out. Thank you all very much!

Hi, I would like to have a form where somebody could enter a number where I would like to field in the form to check if the number is already in the base. Would that be possible? BR Heimen

Hi, I’d like to know what is the optimal photo view for Airtable. Especially for Gallery view. I am planning to embed a gallery view to the website…

Is there a way to make the content on a page designer PDF conditional upon the data in your subject record? Example: I am creating a real estate flyer. The page designer template auto-populates “Bedrooms: {no. bedrooms from record}”, Baths: {no. bathrooms from record}, Garage: {size of garage from record}." However, if the garage field was left blank or “0”, I would like the page designer template to exclude that part of the verbiage. Any ideas? My backup thought is that I could potentially make add a “description” field to my records that uses an IF statement formula to nail down the different verbiage options. But that seems like a lot of work at the moment…

Hello, Can one use the URL email formula for the button field to send out an HTML vs basic text email? I believe I saw that I could possibly use SendGrid to do HTML templates. However, I’m not interested in the bulk send out to everyone within a view.

Hello! I’m new to Airtable and am SO excited at what I’ve seen so far. Thank you for such an amazing platform! I’d like to use the button field to send a templated email. I see that can be done. Very cool! My question is, can I have the email change templates based on another single-select field? Example: Customer record #1 shows “New Lead” in the status field. If I clicked on the send email button I’d like to have an “introduction email” pop up. Customer record #3 however may have a status of “New Lead - 2nd Follow Up”. I’d like the button to then auto-populate a different “follow up email” in that same view. Is this possible? If not with the email button function… could it be done with scripting or a custom app? This would be a game-changer for my business!!! I just need direction on where to go with the idea. Thank you for any guidance you can provide! UPDATE: Just had a backup idea… maybe I cou

Hey, I was looking for a combination app between the Base Schema app and the Flowchart app. I have linked records between tables and I want to visualize those connections. Would something like this exist?

Hi there, I’ve been trying to wrap my head around this problem but I haven’t found a solution yet. Hopefully, someone in the community can point me in the right direction. I have a base with: Events (date of the event, type of the event and so forth) Artists (name, surname, etc + the event date from the other table as a lookup field) I’d like to see if an artist is available for a specific date and the best way to visualize it. Maybe color filters in a calendar view? But how could I do a search of an artist and return it something like: available, not available. Is this possible?

Hey everyone, Is the Inline Mode in the Page Designer no longer supporting fields that are Lookup Fields ? I have several blocks where I have it working but now when trying to do a new block I cannot see it. BR, Mo

hi, I’m trying to set up the new automations - specifically send an email when a record has a specific status. One thing I’d like to is is add conditional templates into the email - including for example, each person’s name into the email as fields on email. How do you do so? Best, Jordana

How do you sort by color?

I need to run some calculations off of the results of a DATETIME_DIFF field. The problem is some of the fields are populated with time spans and some have NaN. I am unable to calculate anything with an NaN. My thought was to first ask if the first date was an empty field, and if so, to simply state 0. If there is a date, it would render the number of days since that date has passed. If (Delivered = BLANK(), 0, DATETIME_DIFF(TODAY(), Delivered, ‘days’)) So if I needed to calculate how much money I’ve spent on renting an item, I could take the number of days since it was delivered and multiply it by the price. Items which were not rented would not need to add to the cost. As far as I could tell, this formula should work. Can you please show me where I am going wrong?

Is it possible to have emails sent to a specific email address sync automatically with Airtable? Most CRM have this feature. We’d like to include sent emails on our individual airtable records. Thanks, Jim

Is there a column that works like Last Updated but only update the date and time stamp only when the call is made? Not just minor changes in comment or some minor change.

Hey!! I had a quick question. I created a form with Airtable, to send to clients. I was wondering if anyone knows if there is an Airtable integration I can use to view the client’s responses in a pdf version (and not the default CSV version - that’s doesn’t display the actual questions)? Thanks!!

I’m having trouble with setting up better security here for critical/confidential data. I setup Tables with permissions for only myself to add/delete records. I setup every Field with permissions for only specific people to update data in the fields they own. Everyone else is set to “commenter” role (which is the most worthless feature btw) to allow them to read only but still have access to personal views. my dilemmas: Is there a way to not allow anyone to create share links or add users? I found out that some commenters and editors were able to add users or share links on their own without my approval, which is incredibly unsafe. Surely there must be a way to limit this to Creator role or disable for specific roles? Is there a way to allow users to create personal views, but only with shown fields? For example if I setup a table with a lot of backend fields that I control, but only want users to see the shown fields. I still

Hi, I would like to have only unique values (email) in my Primary Field. So If users will try to add an already (in the table) existing email, they should not be able to save the record (line). Is it possible? Jakub

Is it possible within the Airtable UI to mask the sharable table view URL’s? For example, I want the read-only table view to look like it’s coming from our company rather than https://airtable.com/shriMSKhDA… Thanks.
