Hi,I'm in need of a solution for a project and I was contemplating using Airtable. I tried a few things but it's not working. Can you help me figure out if Airtable is suitable for my project ?Here are the details :I have a table that lists various criteria (e.g., Criterion A, Criterion B, Criterion C, etc.). Each criterion is divided into sub-criteria (e.g., for Criterion A, the sub-criteria might be "Option 1," "Option 2," etc.). For each sub-criterion, there is a correspondence with different funders (e.g., "Criterion A = Option 1" → Funder X: no, Funder Y: yes, etc.).Next, I have another table containing projects. In this table, each project has specific criteria filled out. These criteria determine whether a funder responds "yes" or "no" for the given project.A third table aggregates the funders' responses for each project. The rule is as follows: if a funder responds "no" to any of the criteria, their

Hi, I’m looking to upload a PDF file which serves as a workflow document, so hoping to have it as a general reference guide. Is there an app/block where I can just upload a PDF file?

Hey all! I want to create a letter within Airtable and link the letter’s PDF to a specific field. The purpose of it is to eventually send an email with the attachment connected to each record. By the way, it is possible to create the letter with Airtable’s Page Designer app. But, you can not link it automatically to a specific field. Do you have any idea what I should use to get it done?

Hello,I am using make to create a google doc using information coming from airtable. I then download the google doc into a pdf that I upload back on my google drive, it works fine.Trouble comes when i try to feed back to Airtable. I have no problem with sending back a URL into airtable to open the document stored on Google Drive.But I do not know how to send the PDF into an attachement field in airtable. Here is my Make scenario:I have tried to insert a google drive share link action before the last airtable action and to pass this share link in the attachement field. Scenario works, and attachement field is populated, but clicking on the attachement in airtable opens a blank document (the direct link to the same document does open correctly).What do I need to do to correctly populate the attachement field?Thank you for help

Hi all,So I have a table of client records. I have about 30 columns with various pieces of information in each. Some of them are drop-downs, checkboxes, some are single lines of text or numbers, etc. What I need to be able to do is to output information from certain columns into something like a PDF in order to create a "job sheet" for our surveyors, with only the information from certain columns that are relevant to their work. Is there a way to do this?At the minute I have to scroll left to right, manually copy and pasting each cell into a Word document, which is incredibly time-consuming. Does anybody have a workaround for this?Many thanks in advance.

Hi all, first of all, I’m a non-native English speaker, please keep that in mind, in case my question isn’t understandable :slightly_smiling_face: I’m quite struggling to explain it in german, my native language. I’m new to airtable and trying to set up a registration form with limited record entries. The form should not accept any input after, let’s say 30 entries, since the registration is limited. Is there any way I can limit the records in a table? I found some posts about different field types like formula, rollup and count, but they all refer to linked records and that’s what I don’t understand. Do I need a second table for this? And if yes, how do I accomplish this? Is it possible to limit records in general? I’m grateful for any hint. kimon

Hi,We have an Airtable form where people upload different attachments (photographs, PDF and Word), but some of them cannot import more than 50 attachments at a time.Is there a way for people to import more than 50 attachments at a time in an Airtable form?Thank you for your help!

Hello, Community! My organization uses forms and survey extensively. We’re in small business services so we typically have a select field that allows users to pick their preferred language. From there, we create conditional fields based on their language preference. My issue is that I get records that are in multiple languages and have to use long and cumbersome formulas in the destination table to combine the responses and get them all back into English for reporting. Does anyone know a better solution that would conditionally convert everything back to the English response values? For example { if (person chooses response X-c in Chinese) then (data submitted is equivalent response X-e in English) }. Thanks a ton for your help!

Hi, can I also indicate another email address that will receive an email after submitting a form. Or is this only for the owner of the base? Met vriendelijke groeten, Geert Dornez

Hello! We are using Airtable for a project plan, where we have one table with tasks and one table with milestones (several tasks are linked to each milestone). We would like to calculate the percentage of tasks completed for each milestone in the milestone table, so we can quickly see that for a specific milestone e.g. 70% of the tasks in the task table have a status of ‘complete’. Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi everyone,I have a user who downloaded the .dmg from Airtable, but when trying to open nothing happens. the machine meets the system requirements, but the user is unable to even launch t to start the installation. Any ideas?

What should I do if there is no response to the completed Airtable Services Partner form? We filled it out more than once, wrote to the mail, but still no response(( Has anyone encountered this?

Hello we ran a survey over a few weeks and are wondering if it’s possible to know/sort by the date on which the survey was taken. We did not ask people to enter date manually, there is no date column - we assumed it would be recorded automatically.

Good day.Looking to add to an existing form where we can rate each proficiency without having to create a field for every proficiency like this.  Typically, yes, there'd be a field for each proficiency with a single select, but does anyone know if there's a native Airtable way of doing the below?miniExtensions isn't an option right now. Thanks

I am trying to emulate MS Excel’s “^” function in Airtable. I have tried the POWER function and it doesn’t seem to work. Optimally, I am calculating Customer Lifetime Value. Any clues about how to effectively do this?

I joined a team that's been using Airtable for a few years and noticed there's a view that was created by someone who's now retired. Is there a way to tell who's using a view so we can determine if it's okay to delete it?

I am building a product using softr and airtable. On Softr, I have a list item that has a button which will capture the name of the user who clicked on the button. I want to capture the names of the users who click the button, all in one cell of the airtable against the item record. I have set the column type as multi select. I am unable to get it one as the cell is overwriting or deleting the existing data in that cell. is it possible to show multiple tokens in one cell against the respective record only. 

Hi all, I am using Fillout Form integrated with Airtable. I have two tables in one airtable base. One table lists all the eligible emails that can login and fill out the form. The second table is where the form submissions land. I would like to be able to tell who has actually submitted a form from the "Eligible email table". Essentially I would like to automatically "read" the "modified time" column found in the "Submission Form Table" within the "Eligible email Table" when the emails in the columns match. From what I understand formulas in airtable cannot talk to each other across tables? And the lookup function doesn't have a way connect that the emails match? Am I missing something? I have tried this formula but nothing is appearing in the box and I'm not sure why: IF({FORM EMAIL (from 2025 Form Submissions)} = {Eligible Email}, "Submitted"

I am creating my first form. I am trying to test it, so I open an incognito tab and use a different email address to try to fill out the form. It goes like thisEnter URL"You're almost there... Please enter your email address to fill out this form"I enter a different email address, not associated with my airtable account. Click "continue""Create your free account" -> prompts me to enter my "work email" and click continueANOTHER "Create your free account" page, this one prompts me to enter full name and a password. At this point I give up. There is a progress bar on the bottom that implies there are several steps to creating an account. I just need people to be able to fill out my form quickly.I need the ability to have respondents fill out a form without having to jump through all these hoops and create an airtable account. Am I doing something wrong? Or is this just how the forms work? And if this is how the forms work, is there a t

Hi all - has anyone been able to bring a base back UNDER limit after going over? I’ve deleted over 10k records and emptied the trash without luck. So basically - we hit 50k records… got the “over limit” message. I went in and cleaned up some stuff - still “over limit”.

Hello, Our records number has exceeded the 1200 limit however we then deleted several hundred records but the records number doesn’t appear to have reduced and the account is still warning we are over the limit. Can anyone shed more light on this or ideally how to resolve it? We deleted the records and then emptied the trash but it hasn’t changed. Many thanks in advance

I’ve searched high and low and can’t seem to find a really easy to use template that allows shift scheduling in an easy to use, drag and drop way like Sling or When I Work. I really don’t want to throw another app at my staff (I’m getting them used to AT as it is), and it would be nice to work within the AT ecosystem so I can use my existing staff info tables. Anyone have something useful? The ones in the existing universe are…not friendly.

Hello I started exploring using Airtable native AI fields; I would like LLM to read and process an attachment documentin PDF but the relevant field {Attachment} seems not to be available in the prompt design. Is it possible in some ways or do I need to resort to using OpenAI APIs and scripting? Regards and Thanks !

I know airtable doesn't have the ability to do this, but I wonder if anyone here has a clever solution.For context, we're a non-profit vege farm. A few of the things we keep records on need many records created at the same time. For example, when I seed trays of 15 different crops in the nursery, or I sow a cover crop into a bed (sometimes 10+ species). Each crop in either of those instances has unique data stored against it - Date, quantity, etc.We need to be able to do this on mobile, as we're in the field, and unfortunately the table view of airtable isn't very easy to do this on mobile. And unfortunately having to submit a form 15 different times is confusing and time consuming. The ideal solution would be a form that could collect all data against each instance, but airtable doesn't allow that.Does anyone have any ideas to help with this workflow? I have seen on2air, but unfortunately as a

Hello, I’m trying to put automatically as primary field the name of the forms where the data came from but I can’t find a way to allow that, even if with formula. Someone have an idea how to that? Here data from my table: Table name: Table1 Compose by these views: Grid view Order form Incident form Purchase form Ask money back form I want to display the name of each form on the “Grid view” as primary field. Is that possible to allow it without to ask the user to field this name on the form?
