Very new to AirTable and I'm working in a file created by someone else. Right now, I need to know how to move a row. (The data is in Alphabetical order, and one entry name has changed. I need to re-order it. I just want to drag the row to a different place but it doesn't work)Also, I have grouped the data but can't seem to UNgroup it! The chat bot said to unselect the grouping criteria, but there is no way to do that. Help!

I want to add a button field that will open one of two page design extensions, depending on the value in a particular field.  For records with value 'INV' in that field I want to generate one page design extension; for records with value 'ILL' in that field I want to generate a different one. I have created two button fields, one for INV and one for ILL, but I cannot see how to only show the appropriate button depending on whether the record is marked as INV or ILL. I tried a formula field but this didnt work. Any ideas please?

Hello hello!Just a quick question for any tips if anyone has experience integrating Airtable with Squarespace. We're a music education programme. In recent years, we've cleaned up our data and workflows with Airtable. Now, we're upgrading our website with Squarespace and would like to bring it to parity with our data.Specifically, we're looking into integrating our CRM on Airtable with the marketing tool on Squarespace. We'd love to use this as a tool for communicating with our Students and Families.We've used similar tools, MailChimp, Mailerlite, etc., and done these without integration with Airtable.The other things I'd likely look into are the member pages for students and ways for them to find their schedules and resources. All this data is organised on Airtable already!If anyone has experience with Squarespace and Airtable some tips would be appreciated!

Hi thereI have two tables I want to link.One is a table of organisations and the other is an excel file of data that belongs to one specific organisation. Both files are uploaded. (Later, there will be other tables to link to other specific organisations).I can use the + sign to set up a new field in the organisation table. I then select Link to a new record.This is supposed to bring me up the option to select which file I want to link to,.  But every time it brings me up the attached screen shot which doesn't allow me to select an existing file.I've tried it in firefox, chrome and edge with the same result every time.Help!! What am I doing wrong?PS I don't understand how the link is going to go to a specific organisation using this method, but maybe that's the next step I can't get to.Helen Gardnerhelen@thegardners.com.au

Can someone explain how to save a table to a CSV file. I have done a search, but everything tells me to use the "save as csv file" in the dropdown for the table. I do not see that option for any of my tables. If anyone could help, I would appreciate it. Thank you.

Hey guys!I have a schedule creating Record Template that only creates half of the schedule I need it to create. Here's a quick breakdown on the set-up:Tables:Job - Contains all job information, linked to Schedule. Where the template is applied. Schedule - Contains schedule phases, no manual dates. Linked to Jobs and Tasks. Tasks - Where the dates are actually entered (but not in the template). Linked to Schedule.Template info:Creates a series of Schedule phases and Tasks. There are 65 records it's supposed to create. It worked about a month ago perfectly fine. The Problem:Currently when I apply the template from an interface it only creates 32 of the records. There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the template, everything is entered into it correctly. Has anyone else ran into this issue? Let me know if anyone knows whats going on and if there's a fix.Thanks!

HelloI am new to Airtable and I am trying to create dynamic calculations in a record in my calculations table that is updated every time when a new record is created through a form for another table called Non-Title I School Tours - Virtual. I used Rollup in the calculations table to sum multiple records in a field in the Non-Title I School Tours - Virtual table. The problem I am running into is that it is not summing up multiple records it is only showing the first record and none of the records after it. Any feedback would be helpful.

We use our air table to create a database of questions that we use to answer client DDQ's or potential client RFP's.  When I need to find a specific questions and answer I'm having troubling finding it.  What is the easiest way to do a search like this?

I have a table of information that is tracking music in a film.  I have the songs and their timecode of where they appear in the film.  the nature of the list is that i have a record for every time there is an edit however several records compile the total use of the song.  Here is my issue.  When i look at all the records in grid view and sort by timecode in they sort in order and everything looks great.  Then when i then group them by song title things go hairy.  It puts the groups of songs out of order.  so a song that starts in the film at 1 min 15 sec and goes to 3 min 15 sec is sorting after a song that is in the film at 15 min 3 sec.  How can i get them to go in the proper order once grouped?

Hi all, I am wanting to understand if the following scenario is currently achievable and if so, what “add ons” would be required: Ideally I would like to be able to share a “filtered” view with a clients that only shows information relevant to them for a updating various aspects of a project, while the remaining fields which are for internal purposes are hidden. Obviously this can be done by setting up a view and hiding the relevant fields. Only issue here is that when sharing this view a guest can view it and not make any changes (I am amazed that this feature is still yet to be implemented having seen discussions on this topic go back quite a long way). So, the only option is to send this information to Google Sheets (I am aware of various tools such as Airtable Importer, Coupler, Integromat etc that can do this one way). Now that the info is in Google Sheets, it can be shared with a client (either the full set of data and hide various columns and restrict editing access or importing

I have a table of sales orders keyed by sales order number. I often get sent spreadsheets with lists of sales orders with the question "What is the state of these?" I'd like to be able to take that list, enter it, and get the lines back for the matches. I'm struggling with a solution and could use some ideas ... 

One of my fields is linked to another record in the same base. In the form view, is there a way that someone can add a new record, instead of selecting one that already exists? I see this capability for normal fields, but it doesn’t appear when the field is linked to another record.

Hi there, apologies if this is written about elsewhere, I searched and didn’t find many relevant posts. We have two duplicate records created from Acuity via Zapier. One Randall H. and one Randy H. Same person. I changed the name of the Randy in airtable to Randall, but they’re still different records and I’d like to merge all this student’s lessons to be under the same single student. Can this be done? Thanks!

The deduplication extension isn't efficient due to the large number of duplicates we have—thousands in total. Therefore, I’ve created a script to merge and remove duplicate records based on identifying fields.The script runs successfully when I don't merge linked record data, but this approach results in valuable information being lost. When I include the merging logic, the script works on smaller datasets (Although, take some time), but it crashes when processing larger datasets.This is the error I get: This is my script: // Hard-coded configuration let tableName = 'Contacts copy 3'; // Replace with your table name let idFieldName = 'Contact'; // Replace with your identifying field name let emailFieldName = 'Email Address 1'; // Field name for Email Address 1 let mobileFieldName = 'Mobile'; // Field name for Mobile let viewName = 'test 2'; // Replace with the name of the view you want to use // Retrieve the table let table = base.getTable(tableName); // Airtable limit

Hi there,I have been asked to look into if Airtable and Smartsheet can integrate with another. I am looking to create a report from Smartsheet and for it to be integrated into Airtable's calendar view so people know when milestones are due on projects. Is this possible?Thanks

Hello! I have the below table that list Rooms with the associated Furniture and Accessories that belong in them. I would like to be able to filter on a field in a separate table for Client ID. The thing is because I’m keeping track of Rooms over time for each client, multiple Client ID names display when I link the below table to the other table for Client ID. I tried to filter on 1 particular client’s name for Client ID, I could also see the other clients that have used the same type of furniture pieces. I only want to see information for 1 person. I hope this makes sense. Is there a way to make this happen?

HI, I want to be able to select multiple records in a base and update a field in all selected records. I’m thinking this will probably need a script where I can enter a value and then push a button to update all selected records with that value. Has anyone done this or have an idea to get me started please? Thanks

Hello, I have been invited as an editor of another user's database. I pay for the team plan, and the other user does as well. However, the creator of the database is being charged for having me as an editor. Is this correct? If I already pay for the team plan, why does he have to pay for giving me permission to be an editor in his database?

I have a table (source table) synced via a one-way sync to a table in another base (target table). I recently changed the name of a field in the source table, and I noticed that the name of the field in the target table did not update to match the updated field name of the source table. Is there a way to automatically sync the field names, or do I have to manually update the field name in the target table? Thank you for your help. 

I recently switched from google drive to dropbox for my content uploads and when I try to add a photo into the attachment from my dropbox integration it only shows me the content in my dropbox in a list view rather than a grid view. I'd like to see it in a grid view so I can see all the photos as is and not as the file name. Is there a way to change this? TIA! 

Hola AirtableforceoneFirstly, if anyone wants to know how to extract helpscout images from threads and then send them to dropbox and then over to Airtable .  will share that here. Thats 8 hours of my life gone but it's easy now Iknow.BUT - one last question. Right at the very end. How do I fix this?I have Make/Integromat adding an image to an airtable row by providing a URL (Ps, I made a public one of course, used drop box yadayada).But when I upload the image, it deletes all the images in that row rather than just adding another. Cant find any switches of settings for it. Any ideas? Seriously, Make is so far more detailed than Zapier but this last piece is a killer.
