Hi, I'm trying to set up a filter to target certain records, but it appears like they are not filtering as they should.So basically I'm trying to exclude records that contain certain words in a field, but they still show up, as you'll see in the attached screenshot.I've played around with "AND", "OR", "contains", "does not contain" but the records always show.Thanks in advance for any help 

Hi Everyone, I want to create multiple forms to gather contacts for different reasons - Subscribers who want our newsletter Those who want to download our resource Those who fill out our profile form All of the forms capture Name, Email and then they have different fields. I want to keep all these contacts in the same table. I was hoping to have one table with 3 different form views. The issue is, I want to track how each contact came in, and I can’t figure out how to tag the submitted responses by the form they submitted. Instead, I have these split across different tables and I manually tag each, then copy/paste new responses into a master list. Am I missing something obvious here? I keep all the tables structured the same so the copy/paste to master is easy.

I am in search of a roadmap to becoming a certified expert on Airtable. Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction?Would be greatly appreciated. 

I have embedded a “grid view with grouping by date” into a page on my website. When I view it in a browser on my desktop it looks fine. But when I view it in a browser on my Android phone (mobile), the grouping does not show and there is no menu bar at the top of the grid view. Menu Should be: Hidden Fields, Filter, Grouping, Sort, row height, print (this menu does not show on mobile) What am I doing wrong? https://lircal.com/airtable-browse-view

I signed up for beta a long time ago, but seems I'm still on the waitlist. Has anybody one else been let in to beta?Notion's AI tools are cool and I'm using them already.  Wondering if I should be shifting my workflows over, or keep waiting.  It's almost 2024!  

Hello, I'm trying to merge a CSV but the field that I need to map to is not available to select. I can't select the field I need as the merge field. It is not one of the options in the "choose a field" drop down.

Hi,I'm using a form so users can enter their data into a table. In that table one field always has to have the value "SUM" I want that every new record to be receiving default “SUM” Thank you

Hi all!I'm looking to use Noloco like @scottsworld suggested, and I'm curious if having a button to allow people to edit or create records in airtable on that interface means we'll be billed extra for these peoples since they will be doing 'creator' level actions.Thanks a bunch 🙂

Fairly new here…so…I’ve created a form but the recipient needs to fill in the form over the course of a year (Growing vegetables for us & includes info/observations for the whole growing year)…is it possible for the recipient to save the form and add to it and then submit when all the data is complete? Or would it be better for me to create an app that they can fill in? Thanks for any advice, much appreciated.

We have a very lengthy form that requires the employee to go back and forth between apps and input information. Is there an option to save the form and go back to complete later? If this isn’t available in Airtable does anyone have any suggestions on creating a fillable (mobile) form to collect data while out in the field?

Hi Community,I have a team annual plan. I have a base with 8 editors. How do I read this bill?Thanks!

I'm building a system for our staff where I need to be able to find colleagues of a given person for a given project in a particular building.Our structure in airtable is like this:We have four tables:BuildingsProjectsPositionsStaffThe buildings table simply serves to tie them together, being linked to from the projects table as a location.The project table serves to explain the project itself and gets linked to for the positions in that project, from the positions table. The positions table helps organize certain positions, like designer, or electrician, that may be organized before the staff for that particular position is chosen - which, of course, is then taken from the Staff table, holding all of the staff details.What I'm trying to achieve, is by a button press from the staff's profile in our interface, set a filter over a list element that matches that specific staffer's dates of starting and ending on th

When I use to copy a base via public share link, automations copied over as well. They were just turned off.Now when I do it, automations aren't copied. They're all gone.Am I doing something wrong? Was this removed?

Hi!  Background info.... I have a number of clients whose information I have stored in an Airtable base.  This information pertains to their upcoming meetings and information for them to prepare for those meetings. Currently, I'm providing them with a 'share' link from specific views in the base so they can view their upcoming meetings on their computer and/or mobile device. While the information translates fairly well to mobile, I'd like for it to be a little easier to view.  Has anybody done this?  Does Airtable have any 'mobile app' capabilities? Hopefully that all makes sense!  TIA!

Currently when I sub to an iCal link that is several days long, it blocks out my entire calendar. I would like to have these appear as an “all day”event so I can still see the rest of my calendar. Typically a calendar program will put an all day event at the top of the day, vs literally creating a 24 hr event from 12am to 12am.

Hi all. I have the free version of Air Table and it says I have exceeded storage capacity, however I am still able to upload attachments. Anyone know why that might be? Thanks in advance. 

Hi,I have 2 tables. One is called Dues. It has a list of members who have paid their dues by year. Each row is a member and the year. The other table is called Meetings. I t has list of meetings by date and a multiselect field of members who attended the meetings. Each row is a meeting with date and members attending.I would like to count the number of meetings each member has attended in a rollup field in the Dues table to determine of they are eligible to vote. To vote you have to have paid your dues and attended more then 6 meetings for that year. So, filter for year and and number of meetings.The list of members comes from the members table that lists all the members.Can someone point me in the right direction. I cannot figure this out.Thanks, Scott

Without using forms, but within AirTable itself, is there any option to build anything like a flow chart, where selecting different options would show different fields to input data?For example let's assume I have an employees table. Each employee can either be employed directly or via a subcontractor - for each option I need to fill out different fields, and then for each one of them they can be in different departments, and for each department I want different fields filled out once again and so on.Is there any way to do that?

I'm a novice Airtable user trying to help create a system for my wife. I've created a base with a couple of linked tables and some basic forms to enter data.  I've just created a form using the "New Forms" feature and want to take the url and use it on an iPad to allow her to "look up" customers. When I try to open it on  the iPad I get a message I need to check my email for a magic link which opens it up on my desktop. Is there no way to view these "new forms" on an iPad. The gap between what can be done on a Mac vs an iPad in the iOS app app or via the browser on the iPad is confusing. 

Hello-I have created a field with single select options. Is it possible to create a link such that when an option is selected it will link to a new field with new sub categories? Example: Field= Clothing with  Single Select Options: Skirt, pants, suit., etc.  When "Skirt" is selected, I'd like a new subcategory further defining skirt to become available either to populate the same field or a new field ex:  mini, knee, maxi, long. Thank you.

Hi,I'm having trouble with Airtable displaying options off the visible screen. So far I have experienced this with automation menus (first image) and creating dropdown fields (second image). Is there a way to force these menus to only appear on the visible sections of the screen or a way to scroll these back into view?Thanks for the help.   

I have a shared view that should react to data that has changed in another table in the base, however it seems to take a while before the change is reflected in the shared view. Does anyone know what the frequency of the cache refresh for a shared view is? Is it possible to change it?Essentially I have a directory of freelancers that can be used by all contributors to network with each other. Part of that networking is finding out who is near you. Each entry in the directory has a long and lat associated with it and I have implemented a function that calculates distances based on who is selected in a linked table (i.e the person selected there is the point from which distance calculations are performed).I've implemented it this way so that I don't have to get charged for geocoding API calls and because the contributors are not users on my base (they don't have Airtable accounts, they just contribute by filling in their details on a form and viewing the directory by the

I've got two tables "Table A" and "Table B", that are linked. Table B utilizes the look up tool to pull certain information from Table A. However new records were added to Table A and the lookup on Table B isn't pulling that information. There's no view, filter or automation conflicting with this so why are newly created records not being found by the look up tool?

Hello, As a noob in the field i would like to discuss what content/guide should i study to prepare for 2024 API changes. We use Adalo and Airtable with no automation on AirtableI was reading this guide from Adalo:https://help.adalo.com/integrations/airtable/connecting-to-airtableApparently if i get it right, i just have to change "the bearer key" while the link to the base record "https://api.airtable.com/ecc..." remain the same? Thanks
