Other Questions

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? 

This feels like it should be so simple. I've got a form with roughly 30 questions on it, and I want to use Page Designer to create a PDF of each response that I can then email to respondents. For the life of me, I cannot figure out how to get a simple grid in Page Designer that shows the responses. The only clue I can find is that if I add a Linked Records element to Page Designer I can choose Grid Mode, but I don't have any linked records in the table, it's just collecting the form responses as they come in. I know I must be missing something obvious.More details: we offer 4 different products and we're asking our partners how many containers/pallets of each product they will want in each month of the next fiscal year. i.e. In March 2024, partner A might want ten containers of product 1, five pallets of product 2, six pallets of product 3, and one container of product 4. I just want to show that in a simple grid in Page Designer - Month, p

Using Gmail for sending emails through automations, has anyone managed to insert a checker that then tells you if the email was opened, viewed, correctly received, etc.?

Hi all,I've had some questions from my (project managers in higher ed) team regarding the brand new Date Dependencies feature, which overall is a big help and a good replacement for my previous formula field workaround.When updating predecessor dates to complete earlier than originally expected, dependencies do not shift earlier. Is there a way to make dependent start dates sticky to the predecessor's end date? Our current workaround after updating the task's duration is to delete all task start and end dates and start again with task #1's start date. Similarly, when adding a new task in the middle of a timeline, we've found that adding the task duration and adding predecessor links does not trigger cascading dates unless that task's new end date overlaps with its dependent.We're also interested in support for dependent tasks starting on the parent task's end date rather than the day after -- it doesn't look like this i

Hello, fellow Airtable Fans! Has anyone figured out how to wrap text inside a day in Calendar view? I have long entries that must be viewed on a calendar. Thank you, kindly.

Hello Community,I have to change Workspace Collaborators in the Organization, to Base Collaborators. Anyone knows if by doing this it triggers any billable change? Will Airtable charge us again now that they are Base Collabs? Thanks!

Hi all,I have previously used an integration between JotForm and Airtable to populate Airtable with submissions from a JotForm form. The integration was working fine as of last night; however, this morning, I made an edit to the JotForm form and now Airtable is not populating with any new submissions. I tried creating a brand new form and reintegrating the two platforms with a brand new table to see if the issue was specifically with my previous form or table, but the new form submissions aren't showing up in the new table submissions, either.Any guidance here would be appreciated! Thank you 🙂

Hi. Is there a way to change the size of this element? It has resizing handles but I can’t get them to do anything. Thanks.

I have a base for many social accounts. I created a column in the base for emails. Records will have multiple email addresses (that I want to put inside the field for a record thats being created) for the main email providers - Google, Yahoo, Outlook, Webmail. Is there a way have many fields inside the cell labeled with the email providers (label1: Google label2: Yahoo, etc.) that I can input the email address for the record? The only way I see how to do this is to use the long text field type and just type everything in it. Please see snaapshot.

Hi, I'm Planning to buy an enterprise plan, in some of cases i need to share my base to my clients which are paid for team plan, if i shared my base as an editor do i have to pay for them also.?Please confirm.   Thanks.Vinoth

Suddenly our team can't upload photos to our forms. They only options like Drive, Dropbox, Local File but no photo options. Did something change suddenly??

I’m trying to create a SWITCH formula checking for specific text within a field. For instance, if there is a field with a bunch of random numbers and then a name, I want to check for the name in that field, not match the entirety of the text in the field.

When I don’t truncate fields in a grid in an Email Digest, the column widths are randomly set, often times wasting a ton of space: Everything auto-fits if I “Truncate text,” but I still want my last column to show all the information — any way to have the auto-fit of truncated but wrap text for rich text fields?

How can I ascertain how large (MB) my base is? Grazie!

i'm wanting to get employee data from Workday such as when a new hire happens, employee terms, or just an update to employee record. I'm using the HR workday connector from Workday and I believe that I configured the connector correctly, but i'm still getting a 500 error. Are there any suggestions to get my connection working?

We've recently published Airtable Sync Figma plugin and we're using it internally but it's surprising to see that there is no much interest from users.As designers and developers, working with real data in our mockups is essential to ensure accuracy and avoid unexpected issues during development. We expected that this plugin would provide great value to both Airtable and Figma community.We would love to hear your thoughts, feedback, and use-case scenarios to better understand the demand for such functionality. Let's discuss and help us improve this plugin to better serve the needs of the Airtable community.
