i am looking for a script that will take isn’t_13 from my books table, fetch the title and author from proprietary.org and populate it into books table

I have two tables, one for active projects and one for completed projects. I want to move complete projects from the active projects table to the completed projects table. I don't mind doing it manually (the volume of weekly change is low), and I don't mind copying from active to complete and then deleting the record from the first table after I've successfully added it to the second table. But I cannot figure out how to do any of this, and searching the help info and community hasn't helped. All I've found so far is "copy record URL" which doesn't seem to be useful at all. I'm sure I'm just being dim here, but I need some step-by-step guidance on what to do here. TIA!

Hi, Hope all reading this are well and staying safe. I’m creating a Business Dashboard with a range of graphs for different purposes. Some of these are stacked charts. My need is to achieve consistent order and colour of category groupings in charts, in two ways: Consistent order and colour of category groupings when changing a stacked bar chart to a stacked line chart. Airtable seems to take control and change the order and colour (see screenshots below). Please note: in creating the stacked line chart I simply copied/duplicated the stacked bar chart, and made one adjustment: changed the chart type from bar to line. This automatically changed the order and colour of the category groupings. Stacked bar: Note the order and the coour of the grouping categories in the above. And here is the stacked line chart that is a result of simply transforming the copied chart type to stacked line: Note the order and colour of those categories has been changed. Can I control this? Consistent or

I have built a couple dashboards in an Airtable Base which I am happy with. But the downside is they are a bit buried and hard for others to find so I am considering leveraging the Interface Designer tool to display them. What’s the most efficient way to get Dashboards that already exist in a base over to interfaces? It almost seems like I have to re-build them using the interface designer which I am dreadding - is there a quicker way to port them over? Which area has more graph customization options - building dashboards within a base using the Apps or Dashboards layout w/in Interfaces? Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

Hi, I'm facing the deduping issue. The situation is that when I dedupe records in Airtable, the checkmarks in a column disappear. From the attached file, one record with "opportunity" column should have a checkmark✅ and the other one doesn't have. However, it showed that both records don't have checkmarks at all. Kindly let me know how to solve it! Thanks a lot

I work for a nonprofit company and we have been trying to purchase an enterprise plan from Airtable since December 2022.The agents have not been professional and have not gotten back with anything tangible for over 2 months.We have received no response and we would really like to proceed. Sales and Customer Support haven't been helpful either and we have been reassigned to several agents with no contract in sight.Is this an internal issue?Quite disappointed with the level of service.

I have two tables; my primary table is a listing of our inventory units that we are running promotions for; when an inventory item sells, we add it's stock number to table 2. I'm looking for a way to set the status of each record in table 1 so that it shows as "for sale" if its stock number doesn't exist in table 2, and gets updated to "sold" when its stock number is added to table 2 as sold. Any ideas on how to best achieve this?

Hi all ! Im currently creating a database for retrieve data from a questionnaire, in this database I have two tables, a “result” table where I store all the answers, and a “text” table where I store texts that will be displayed in relation to the responses obtained. For example : Part of my questionnaire is used to obtain a “self-confidence” score, depending on this score one of the 3 “self-confidence” texts will be displayed (low self-confidence, medium self-confidence, or hightself-confidence) . To do this I first created a formula field “calculation text self-confidence” which allows me, depending on the score obtained, to obtain a value 1, 2 or 3 (this value is used to determine which of the 3 texts I want to display). In my “results” table I created a “link to another table” field to the “texts” table where I retrieve all the records, then I created a lookup field in which I will look for the content of the text with the conditions that it be of the “self-confidence” type and that

Hello everyone. Within my Airtable interface, I would like to create a form where users can add their input to a table that is already visible within the same interface, so normally, when someone submits a form, it's immediately shown in that already-visible table, but I'd like to have an approval process before. Therefore, I'm wondering if it's possible to establish an authorization process in which I, or any other contributors, can "approve" a submitted input before it is officially added to the base.Thanks in advance.

I have Integromat automatically generate invoices vai Google Sheets using data from AirTable. Although after the invoice is generated it is fairly ugly given there is no formatting on the Google Sheet. These invoices are dynamic so I cannot use a static template that I format in advance. Is there a way to have integromat/airtable format the dynamically created google sheet? Thank You, Friends.

Hello beautiful community! Looking to connect with Canadian Airtable users to better understand how the new Bill 25 will affect how they use Airtable in the futur. We have until September 2023 to comply and i am at a loss. Airtable has been my main platform for processes in the city. The new Bill required all Canadian data to be hosted outside of USA and away from the Patriot Act’s long arms. I understand that Airtable uses Amazon servers to host our datas and inquired about being able to host data in the Amazon Canada servers too and was told that it was not in the plans. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly greatly appreciated.

Hi all,Just want to ask if anyone have encountered upgrading from Free trial to Pro plan and forgot to change collaborators permission level to read-only permission? Now those collaborators are billed and reflected on the latest invoice, is there a way to reverse the previously paid billed collaborators since they're not supposed to be billed and just forgot to downgrade their permission level. As of now those collaborators only have Read-only permissions but they've been already billed on the credit card. I already sent an email to airtable support but as of now there's now response yet. 

I have a list of dealers and their addresses. I want people to give me their address and find the closest dealer to their location.

Hi folks, I know you can prefill dates in forms using URL functions. In this case, I don't need it to happen in a form, but on new record creation. I can use a formula for "today" - but it's uneditable for the small number of instances where it needs to be overridden. It's helpful to have "default values" for number fields, but it seems weird there is no default for date fields. Surely I am missing something obvious?
