I’ve duplicated some tables and then afterwards renamed them. However, in lookup fields when selecting a table to lookup from the original name still shows up, which makes me have to guess which is the right one. Anyone experiencing this too and knows how to recache the table names or sth?

Hi y'all - I think I've found a VERY dumb breach in Airtable that's leaking PII.  I've sent in an email and reached out via the help system, but I suspect these forums might be better monitored - could an Airtable rep please find a way to contact me for proof? If I can figure out a way to share an image w/o showing how the breach is happening, I'll update this thread and do so.

I’ve pulled lead capture form submissions into a base. But people have submitted forms multiple times, with the same info. How do I use email address to filter out duplicates?

Hello Airtable Community,I'm reaching out for guidance on setting up a more streamlined email management system within Airtable, in conjunction with Make.com, for my cold email agency. We've developed a unique setup that leverages individual IMAP connections for each client's email account, hosted on a private VPS server to handle volume. Our current process uses Make.com to capture all incoming emails, turning them into records within a master Airtable base. This base acts as a CRM, meticulously tracking interactions for each client.Our goal is to refine this system further by enabling direct email replies from within Airtable. Here's a breakdown of our needs and current setup:Integration Specifics: We use Postbox for email management with an IMAP connection for each client. Each client has a dedicated email account on our private VPS. We've successfully automated the capture of incoming emails to Airtable via Make.com. Now, we're looki

Hi! I want to be able to use something like the Forms feature to add multiple records in one go for non-licensed viewers, but the forms feature is limited to one record at a time and the editable shared view does not support copy and paste. For example: I have a Project name record I want to add (view #1) x number of tasks records linked to the project name (view #2) and x number of project collaborators records linked to the project name (view #3). Rather than submitting the form multiple times to add: Project name Task 1 description + link to project name Task 2 description + link to project name … etc Project collaborator 1 name + link to project name Project collaborator 2 name + link to project name … etc I want to be able to add this in one form. Is it possible with a sc

Hello. I have a form on my photo studio website that’s connected to a base where I collect and manage client data and bookings. When someone fills out the form an email is generated and sent to me via Airtable with the subject line… “Airtable forms: someone has responded to Photo/Film Booking Request” I’d like to change the subject to something shorter and more relevant like, “Your 08.02.18 Photo/Film Booking Request at (Studio Name)”. This way I can simply reply back to the person with a short, relevant email subject line with the original request email as the first message. Is changing the subject line possible in Airtable or do I need to use Zapier or some other integration? I noticed the SendGrid block, but have not had time to play with that. Thanks!! ~ G

I have many columns that use multiple select fields. However, there are times that they need an option called “Other” and the ability to type in a new option. This option should not be saved into the list of options. I can add another column and let them type in the option there, but since there are so many of these the table is getting quite bulky. Is there a way to have a custom field where you can display an option in multiple select but not add it into the list of options? Or is there another way to accomplish this? Thank you,

Hi all, please help put me out of my misery. I have a database to organise film shoots. I have three tables: scenes, dates and kit Each entry in the scenes table links to an entry in the dates table (the date we’ll shoot that scene), and may or may not link to a number of items in the kit table, indicating whether that scene requires specialist kit (cranes, drones etc). I am trying to make a field in the dates table that summarises what kit is required for that day. When I make this a rollup pointed at the scenes table, kit field, it pulls through all the entries correctly but obviously as there can be many scenes scheduled for a particular day, each of which might require the same bits of kit, I get a lot of duplicates. No matter what combination of ARRAYUNIQUE, ARRAYFLATTEN, ARRAYCOMPACT etc etc I try I can’t get the rollup to show only unique items. To be clear what I’m after is that if a particular date has four scenes and two req

I use Airtable for my small property management business. I have to send a list of customers and some data about them to my insurance agent every year as part of the renewal process for my liability insurance. Insurance companies do not want electronic views of databases. They want hard copies. Paper. To do this, it appears that I have to spend a considerable amount of money to use another application to get my data out of Airtable.Is there a way to print a view or an Interface, or send a pdf of the info, or an email that can be printed? If not, then Airtable has become of no value to me. I need to communicate the way my vendors do. A cannot bend to them to using systems they do not want. I am a very small company. They are very large.If there is away, would someone please let me know how to go about it?Many thanks, Scott

Hi everyone,I'm sure you've all heard about Air.AI or have seen a video discussing it.I'm currently attempting to work with Air.AI, but I've hit a roadblock, where I have to interact with my agent. Whenever I try to communicate with my agent, the webpage prompts me to upgrade my Twilio account from the free trial. Air's tech support mentioned that I can use any plan other than the free trial. However, my budget is extremely limited, around $100 per month, and I'm not familiar with Twilio's pricing. Which Twilio plan would be the most affordable while still being usable for Air.AI cold calling? Ideally, I'd like to allocate $1 per day for Air.AI, which totals to $30 per month.Which Twilio plan would you recommend that fits within my budget?I'm a complete beginner, and I greatly appreciate anyone who takes the time to assist me. I'm genuinely striving to improve my circumstances and find hope in this endeavor.Thank you.

Hey community, I'd like to export all my airtable data (including files) which turns out to be trickier than (at least) I hoped: I understand that there is a CSV export function. The main issue for me here is that the file(s) are stored via the expiry link which makes it... not really (re)useable.Therefore, is there a way to either transform the expiry link into a permanent link or be able to download the complete data?By complete data I also mean keeping the relations: I noticed that there is a way through zapier to export all the data (as files) but they would then have to be linked to the record manually again (from my understanding). Any input is highly appreciated!Thanks, Michael

Does anyone have an issue with emails being rejected from an airtable automation? There was a migration from a different hosting service we used our mail servers on I have disconnected and cleared the cache and reconnected the account but the same issue is happening as the email was the same but the hosting changed I am not getting this issue it seems like from other 3rd parties I was using. This was not doing this before there was no issues sending emails from outlook in connection in airtable so I have no idea what is happening   

I am currently using the Team plan for my workspace, and I have a few questions regarding the pricing structure and seat allocations.1. Regarding Editors:If I share the workspace with two people as editors, would there be an additional cost incurred? If so, could you please clarify how much the additional charge would be?2. Regarding Readers:Similarly, if I share the workspace with two people as readers, would there be an additional cost? Kindly provide details on how this might affect the pricing.3. Sharing Workspace Databases:Suppose I share four workspace databases with three people. One person receives access to two databases while the other two individuals each get access to one database, and all are set as editors. Would there be a change in the pricing structure due to this arrangement? If so, could you provide information on th

Hi all,I am planning on transferring a base on a new workspace.I'd like to know the impacts: especially, will my form url change?Txs

Hi there! I'm fairly new to Airtable, so sorry if I'm asking something that is too obvious.I'm thinking about building a prototype for a tool where I use Airtable to store Data via forms, the idea is that the users can "create" a color by giving the values for RGB or HEX, they get a preview of the color and after they commit, the color is stored with the record. It should be a DB of materials for Architectural Visualization, so these colors are the base to configure a material.Is it possible to do something like this with Airtable or I'm in the wrong place here?

I have tried on numerous occasions to cut data from excel and past into Airtable table but keep getting an error.  It is a rather big table but I have done the same operation with earlier data and had not issues.  What:s going on?  See error message below

I’ve been researching the community board for posts on exporting attachments while preserving their association to the correct column (field) and row (record). Is it correct that: as of December 2020, AirTable does not support this behavior directly however, there are third party integration tools which serve this purpose ? If AirTable doesn’t do this directly, it seems like a very significant defect/omission in the product. Thanks for any guidance on this topic.

I have created a form in interface, however, i can't embed it into wordpress becasue "this content could not be embedded". Do you have any solution? If I need to use 3rd party App to redevelop this questionaire form and throw back answers to airtable, do you have any App recommendation as this airtable form has created many conditions with logic flow in order to collect questionaire from outsider? Thank you.  

Hey all, I am trying to add two static images within the extension page designer through the image url but after a few hours the images break and stop working. I have added the images I want to use to another table within the same airtable base and I am copying the image address to add that to the image url for the static image. How do you stop the static images breaking or is there another way to add static images into page designer?Any help would be amazing as I have googled and read other Q&A's and am completely stuck. 

I've contacted support for the first time in the summer of 2022 (!) and I'm still having the same 2 issues: copy/pasting between long text fields doesn't copy the text stylecopy/pasting makes the screen jump from the place in the long text field where I'm copy/pasting to the top of the screenBoth issues are VERY annoying. Is anyone else (still) having this problem?  @MaddieJ, now that support only seems to work for Enterprise clients, how can I escalate this best?! After hearing from support back then that they would look into it, never heard back from them 😑

I am an experienced programmer, new to Airtable.I have two tables, one a 'triage' table where some client information is entered. When the client passes certain criteria I want to add the client information with some additional fields to the 'client' table.The first pass at doing this with a button that builds a url to a form connected to the client table does work.There are two issues - the button can be pressed multiple times, adding the client more than once. Also if the user is in the Airtable app it launches the web version which is disconcerting.I have experimented with a script that tests a two state Single Select field (changing it from "New" to "Added to Clients"). However I cannot see how to launch the form from the script. Is this possible? 

When configuring SSO using Okta, I will also configure Provisioning with SCIM. Can someone help me with a few questions on this subject?Using Okta SCIM provisioning:- how do I ensure all new users created in Airtable have a default "Viewer" permission?- how do I ensure all new users created in Airtable are assigned to a specific workspace? And that they cannot access other workspaces unless granted.

Hi Community,I am pulling information from multiple records in a sync'd base into one record in a new base. By doing this I getting multiple images associated with this record, which I love. However some images are associated with multiple records in in the sync'd base and therefore multiples of the same image is added to the attachment. Is there a way to remove the duplicate attachments without having to do it manually? Making sure all attachments are unique.Thanks! 

I added collaborators to my full workspace. But actually want to give them access to specific bases. Is there a way to change this permission, without removing them from the workspace and then re inviting them to specific bases instead? I have searched everywhere. I feel this should be easy and visually blatant. Yet, I’m stumped. Thanks

Hi All,I'm evaluating airtable for replacing other tools, and I would like to know if in your experience is possible to implement what is written in the following link with just airtable https://www.airtable.com/articles/product/business-requirements-documentIs there any template? My aim is to build a complete BRD directly on airtable in a collaborative way and without using any external tools. Any suggest?
