Is there a way to use the Multi-Select Field WITHOUT the field options being in Bubbles (i.e., as just plain text). I currently push several multi-select fields into Page Designer to generate record reports; however, have to maintain an interim field for each that uses a formula to strip out the bubble. It is a cumbersome workaround. Seems like there should be a "Bubble" toggle just as there is a "Color-code option" toggle.

On one table I have item name/type/start date, and I’d like airtable to auto-fill some cells next to it in that row depending on the type/start date selected (type is a dropdown single select). So for instance on this table: When the type (green arrow) is monthly email (or whatever the type is), then fill in the cells next to it (purple box) which is called from this table: I’d also like it to fill in dates according to the start date of that item, so for instance if it’s type “monthly email” starting on June 17th, then according to the second table calculate the date of 2 weeks before the start date. Going to sync this with our CRM for activities, so these cells next to it are the item activities name/date.

Hi everyoneTrying to see if an idea is viable from a cost perspective but can't work out licensing implicationsI want to build a FREE, NO COST application for a community scenario where kids are collecting and trading stickers.  The plan is to use Softr and Airtable and the app is basically built but now I'm wondering if it's viable using free licenses.Not sure of the number of users, don't anticipate it will be that many, maybe 100 even if successfulAny thoughts?ThanksMike

Hello!I have a table (table A) that has two fields I want to display in another table (table B). One of the columns in table A is a check box value, the other is free text. I have linked table A inside table B and created two look up columns in table B to display the check box column and the free text ones but they turn up blank. Any ideas on why this is happening? 

I'm an author, and I use Scrivener to write my manuscripts. As you can imagine, keeping up with characters and all their details is a necessity but until I started using Airtable and up until late last night when I had an "ah ha" moment, it's been a nightmare. Last night, I configured a base to keep tract of characters and locations. I then created a character development form to fill out when plotting and designing the story. Another "ah ha" moment later and I remembered that I can add webpages to Scrivener as documents and they will open up in the editor pane as if the webpage is a part of Scrivener. So, I grabbed the share view link for the form as well as the Gallery view for the characters of the book series I'm working on and attached them to the Scrivener file. Everything is working beautifully, but it will not allow me to edit the character records in this view within Scrivener. It says I need to login or create an account even though I've got the bas

Is there any way to archive a chart in airtable?I created some graphs using the airtable interfaces, the point is that one of these graphs represents how much I spent on each category in the current year until the current moment, so when the year turns, this graph is reset.I would like to be able to archive it or "freeze" it within the airtable itself, so I would have a year-by-year history to analyze in which categories I spent the most in that particular year.If it were possible, I would like an automation to copy this graph and archive this copy on December 31st, since on the first day the information will be reset. If this function doesn't exist yet, please think about implementing it, it would really be very useful. 

Hi. I want to create an agreement form to sign. The form will be made in fillout. There will be fields for name, email address etc to fill in in the form, however I'd like the legal agreement text to be automatically in one field in AirTable that will also show up in the Fillout form. Is there some way to do it or am I going about it a wrong way?

I have been looking for a solution to the issue of creating multiple-page quotations in Airtable. I have a quotation that is 6 pages long. I tried hacking the page designer by using custom-sized pages and dropping page size images as backround to create the various pages. It just doesn’t look right and never will. Also, you can’t email the quote directly from airtable which is an extra pain. I have been trying to evaluate Formstack as a solution. I have followed all the instructions in the videos but when I open the output document or save it in an attachment field in airtable the documents are black. I have tried to get help from formstack but they are taking an age to get back to me and I can’t go through what I am doing so that they can help me identify why it is not working. Has anybody else had this problem or offer any possible solutions? Thanks in advance Sean

Apologies - it's hard to write a subject line in what I need help with. I am trying to make a shotlist for a photoshoot, pulling product information from a non-editable base. Some products will be in multiple shots. Meaning product A could be in shot 1 (solo), shot 2 with Product B, and Product C. I am trying to figure out how to have Product A filter to be shown in Shot 1 and Shot 2. is this at all possible? 

I am using LIST records API to retrieve data from the table.I am needing to get all the records every time. This is acceptable, but no ideal.My client's table has no field that mark when a row is created or edited/updated. Does this of function already exist? If so, How would I grab only the records that were added or changed since the last update? BTW: using this API call:https://api.airtable.com/v0/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/$$tablename$$Thanks,Scott

 How can I make it 2024-08-31 6:30 PM PDT like how the record is in my airtable base? I don't want that T or Z at the end and the seconds and the decimal to be shown either.

I want to paste a string of text into a linked cell and have it recognize the linked relationship. I have about 2,000 lines of data to copy and paste into Airtable. For example, I want to copy the following addresses into cells where the cells link to another table. 123 Main Street, Anywhere, CA, 90210 578 Main Street, Anywhere, CA, 90215 I have not had any luck in pasting it or in the cells recognizing the link. I have also tried “wrapping” the text string in commas as follows: “123 Main Street, Anywhere, CA, 90210” “578 Main Street, Anywhere, CA, 90215” No luck with that method either. Any suggestions? Thanks

I was just wondering if there was a way for an airtable form submission to be edit-able. It’s annoying how everytime a form is submitted it shows up as a new entry when someone perhaps wants to go back and revise an existing form entry. I know Google forms has this. Is there any way for Airtable to do this?

I need to ask my developers to turn a table into an XML feed, but I can’t find any web pages that explains how they would start. Does anyone have any suggestions, so that I can submit more than “Turn this Airtable” into an XML feed. They have never worked with Airtable before so want to provide as much detail as possible.

Hi, I need to export data from Airtable into a XML file so I can upload it to a reporting body. Is there a way to do this? If not, can anyone recommend a reputable app to convert the CSV file to XML, its sensitive data so I am not sure about using a free online converter. Thanks

I have an integration with zapier pulling pipedrive data into a base in airtable. Everything works as expected just one new field I created yesterday is a single select field in pipedrive with Yes or No as the selections. The test data I sent had the selection "No" but instead pulling over "No" it pulled "203" does anyone know why/how I can fix? The airtable field is set up as a short text field.
