Is there any way to allow a collaborator to EDIT records, but NOT DELETE any records?

Hey guys,I'm creating a competency framework.I've these tables :- Jobs (lookup to "Competencies" table)- Competencies (6000 rows) with macro-competencies in column 2 (multiselect)- Macro-Competencies (600 rows) (isolated from but not linked to "Competencies")I'd like to re-create the link/lookup between "Competencies" and "Macro-Competencies" tables. I tried to replace the multiselect field "Macro-Competencies" in "Competencies" table by a LookUp field and the replacement looks good EXCEPT when Macro-Competencies fields contains a COMMA. Then, there is an (unwanted) "auto-split".Is there a way to AVOID this split when there is a comma into the datas ? Thanks in advance !

Hi, I recently ran a script to pull updated changes to our airtable into our application and all the urls to attachments changed. I looked it up and saw that this was to make them invalid after 2 hours. We were using them to point to images on our site so this means a big change in our workflow as we will now have to download the images from the API rather than pointing to them in airtable. We wanted to opt out of the change for now and schedule the work closer to Feb. We opted out in settings and I ran the script to pull the data and get the non-expiring urls. They are still showing in the browser as expired. I have re-run the script and the urls don't change. Does anyone know what is going on?

The top right corner of a record's expanded view doesn't have a toggle to show revision history, as it used to - just a comment option, a link option, and the 3 "more" dots, which don't bring it up - see screenshot attached. The revision history option IS turned on (see screenshot attached of that too). How do I get that toggle switch back to see a record's revision history? Thank you!!

I need users to be able to input data via mobile. Forms hasn't worked for some things for reasons I won't quite get into right now.Some records need to be input off a plan, which is in another table. On desktop, this works fine - I limit the linked record selection to a relevant view (otherwise I get all plans, irrelevant and past, etc). However this filter doesn't seem to work on the android mobile app... But I could have sworn in my earlier testing, that it did.It still works fine on desktop.Is this a known bug? Or have I upset something?

Hello Airtable Community,I greatly respect your expertise and would appreciate your guidance.I'm integrating the "Email Table" extension by Kuovonne into our database for improved contact communication.We're working on enhancing our database's communication capabilities. One task is creating a user-friendly button for visitors to request more information about a specific record.Here's the plan: Visitors click the button, generating an automated message to collect additional record info. The message enters a "pending reply" state and is marked "ready to send."Problem: When using a button via "open custom extension" in shared Airtable views/links, external users can't access it as internal users can. Any reason for this? Can external access be enabled?Conversely, buttons via "run script or open URL" in shared views/links are accessible to external users. Any advice on establishing this linkage and addressing c

I’m loving the idea of the SendGrid block, but from my experimentation, it appears emails can be sent only as plain text, which is virtually useless. SendGrid’s API makes it very easy to specify emails as HTML. Am I missing an option to send as HTML? This is the difference between a wildly useful tool and one that offers minimal utility.

Hi all,The links to shared views (password protected) are not working as they used to; it seems users need to previously sign in or sign up for free if they want to open the URL.  Is anyone experiencing the same issue? Thanks.

I have a company planner in airtable that I want to print in a year view colour coded with the project name printed.  How do I do that?  It doesn't have a year view option so I added the calendar to my google calendar but year view in that doesn't work either!  What do other people do??  

Hello All, I have a question about creating a custom synced calendar for each user.  I own an RV van rental management company and am trying to figure out how to have a unique calendar link for each customer that we can sync up with our user interface.  Currently, I am creating a new view for every user, but I don't see this as a scalable option as we expand. I would like a unique calendar showing each user's reservations created automatically rather than manually creating it every time we onboard a user.  I hope this makes sense.  I also don't want hundreds of views in airtable so each user can have a unique calendar.  I am using stacker as my user interface and would also like to figure out how to embed the calendar there so customers don't have to rely on a link.

Hello, I recently added a field to my calendar view and it appears at the top of each new entry rather than at the bottom where I would like it. Is there a way to change this order?

Hi! I am using SendGrid to send emails to everyone. When I send the email, it is a success, it was sent however recipients do not receive it all. How to fix this one?

I have a “Links” table. The primary field is a friendly name and the second column is a URL. When I view this record from a linked table, the URL is the 3rd entry down. There is another field above it. How can I reorder these? And here is the column order in the links table: Name | URL | Namespace | Type | Server | Participants

I have two tables: one called companies and one called candidates.  I'm creating a form for candidates to fill out which will add them to the candidate table.  One of the questions on the form is "where do you live?".  I want to match them with companies that are in their same city, so I want the company locations I have in my companies table to be the options for the "where do you live" list in the candidate form.  Is there a way to sync these up?  I tried linking the record, but I get a message saying "this is read only and won't appear on the form".  Ideally I want new locations to be automatically added to the candidate form when I add a new company with a new location.

Say I have a table in which each record has a Single Line Text "Notes" field with content like this:MondayGood FridayTuesdayTaco TuesdayGood FridayTuesdayI want to find all records where the Notes have exact matches, in this case for Good Friday and Tuesday, and display them together.I figured I'd have to add a field to check for uniqueness somehow and then filter for non-unique records, but I'm not sure how to do this.

Hi,Is anyone else experiencing views not currently loading within their database?We have multiple users reporting seeing a error message "Loading this view...This view may be loading slowly due to a large number of records or fields". Some users are experiencing load times of 20 minutes. Looking into the account the record and storage limits are no where near capacity.The offices internet speed is fast and all other web based platforms are working. Any insight here would be appreciated.

For the last 2 to 3 days, we have found Airtable almost unusable. Very slow and advanced functions won’t load at all. Any solutions appreciated

Very simple, but I couldn’t seem to find it anywhere. I have a “date contacted” date field, and a “follow up” date field. I want the “follow up” date field to automatically populate a date that is one week out. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I created a "lookup from another field" field, and set it up to pull 4 other fields from another table. It pulls the first field just fine, but then does NOT pull the other 3 for no apparent reason and it's driving me crazy haha. The field I'm using to test DOES have values in those 3 fields to pull, so that's not why. I don't get it. 

Hi Airtable Community! I have a process that requires specific people to provide updates on the 15th of every month. I’m looking for an easy way to create a calendar that will trigger these emails automatically on the 15th of the month at 8 a.m. I’ve had some success with creating a calendar table and developing a formula that flips a field (when criteria met) to a new view that triggers email but the process is a little clunky and I haven’t been able to figure out how to send it at a certain time of day. Any advice/help is greatly appreciated! Thank you.
