Hi, I wonder if you can help me.  I’m stuck with a linking problem between tables in bases.Scenario:  We have several clients and some of them have completed a feedback survey(s).  I wish to create a column that counts the total number of feedback surveys completed by each client.  Clients are stored in BASE1 and completed surveys are stored in BASE2.  I have activated ‘Sync data to another base’ to make the survey table data available in BASE1 and that is all working fine.I then created a ‘Link to’ column in the Clients table and pointed it at the synced Survey table (both in BASE1).  I was expecting this ‘Link to’ column to be automatically populated with a unique reference to the survey number(s) or be blank if no survey existed.  Instead, the ‘Link to’ column is entirely blank and when I click into it, I get a pop-up to create a relationship between individual data points in the Clients and Surveys tables.  I don’t want to create individual r

I followed both Airtable’s and Medium’s guides for embedding table views in a Medium post. Neither work. From what I understand Medium uses embed.ly to handle how links are embedded since Medium does not support code injection into posts.With that said, what’s supposed to happen is you click embed on a Medium post, paste the share link produced in Airtable, then embed.ly works out the embed in the background. Issue is Airtable has changed the way their links are formatted since that guide and it just posts as a link now instead of an embed. I only signed up for Airtable for this EXACT feature. Any way to fix this?

Hi there, support hasn't replied to my billing question for over a week, checking my luck here in the forum.

My team uses an interface, which allows us to add new linked records (ie we pull up a record, which has a linked record field, and we have the permissions set to create that). However, when clicking create, many members of our team are finding airtable will not save. We are not getting expected errors like "required field not completed", but rather, you click "Create" and nothing happens. This is making the interface borderline impossible to use.  Would love to see this bug fixed. Thanks

Hi! I have a board that I'm creating for sales and inventory. I am using 3 tables, INVENTORY, CRM, SALES.SALES table takes products from the inventory, it comes with price and other information. Each record is linked to a client(in CRM) and the product he is buying.If the same client buys 3 products, we create 3 records. I can group them by client and filter them by date and I have a quick visual of the total sale for each client and what products he is buying.I'm having trouble exporting a “receipt“ for each client once the sale is done. I've tried page designer linked to SALES but I would need to do it for each record. I've created another table where I rollup the products by client filtered by date, but I can only use ARRAYJOIN and have them separated by a "," or something else. Any idea on how could I export this “receipt“ that has X number of products that the client bought?  

Hello,I changed my colleagues permissions to owner like me and they still cannot delete records.  I am able to execute all tasks as as an owner but this is greyed out for them. Help!

I have an airtable base with member data, including a table with basic member data and another table with scheduling selections each member makes that I then use a look up to connect. With over 50K schedule requests, I've been "over" the record limit in my base for a while. I now can't seem to add more and have hit a hard cap. Enterprise pricing is out of reach, I don't want to delete historical data because the members' usage over time is important data, and it seems like I can't separate the tables into two bases and connect them the same way using a look up. Is there any solution here or am I out of luck? 🥲

Not sure if this is a thing in the works, but I want to put it out there.Would love a way to have a records feed be able to link and viewable on Slack's new canvases. Example:Project information including dates ,brief's, who's assigned, etc linked straight from airtable linked in the slack canvas for the project it's linked it. Currently having to keep that information manually up to date. We already have all slack info on Airtable and have been using the messaging. That's all. Just an idea.

I see that the plan changes announced today introduce a new monthly limit on API calls. I'm interested to see how our current usage compares to this new limit, but I'm not seeing usage for API calls displayed in the Usage section of the workspace billing page. Is this something that we should expect to see on that page soon? Or what is the recommended way to see how accounts are tracking with respect to this new monthly limitation. 

Hello, new to Air Table but experienced with programming and sheets etc., I am just trying to just show a date field on a form and have it default to the current date, i was reading a bunch of different answers but it is not very clear how to do this.  I looked into prefill_DATE=today() on URL, and also looked into automation but I didn't see how to do this.  Also looked into formula field but I don't see an option for formula field.Also want to be able to save date and time into a database field, how is this possible? Someone mentioned adding a Creation Time field but that didn't work either...

I'm currently in Seoul, South Korea. I'm working with a partner based in NYC. I'm looking to set the timezone of specific fields to EDT as this team needs to automate workflows for the upcoming [tomorrow]'s day's work. I failed to post this last night but at a little after 11p last night (9/5), I was seeing the attached date and time for EDT. It incorrectly reads 9/4/23, 8PM instead of 9/5, approximately 10a. Is there a big or some sort of rigid schedule that the timezone function calculates against? Is it not real time? I need to figure this out ASAP. Please advise. Thank you

Hi--I am looking to create an ecommerce site using Squarespace. I have an airtable base where each record represents a product I want to sell on the website. I was able to create a frame where you can view the airtable base from the website, however, I want each record to be an individual product you can buy on the squaretable website. Any ideas on how to do this?

Hi community,It seems there is no possibility to delete comments made on records by other users.I am the base manager (owner), and would appreciate the possibility to remove comments made by others without asking each person to delete their own comments. Some of them, furthermore, are not on the team anymore (no more access to base).Any way to work around this limitation? Wouldn't it be useful to make base owners able to delete other collaborators' comments?Thanks for your consideration

Hi, I am currently developing the check in and check out for a laundry and I generated their dashboard so they can see the result of their operation per day.As a context for the issue I have the following.Each service order has an entry date and an exit date, as well as an amount that you were able to leave at the time you left your service or pay at the end.The issue I have is that it is not possible for me to do the sum of the inputs with the total of the outputs (total ingresos).The result that should be in this field when I see the information at grid level is added, but when I put the field that has this data, it only gives me the income part.I have already tried to put conditions in the number so that it can bring me all the information but I can't figure out how to do it.Any help is welcome. Thanks for your help

Heard back from support again today, and it’s not good news.They apologized for being the bearer of bad news, but apparently the decision to only give us three weeks to change to the new plans was a deliberate one.  They made it sound like they had attempted to get the product team to change their mind on this (which makes this feel like a rather disjointed company) but in the end, the product team decided to tell us all to take our multi-source syncs and API calls and shove them right up our asses.Here’s the thing I don’t get: in my case, the biggest issue we have is the lack of multi-source syncing.  Support basically said, “well, just sync multiple tables and use linked records, you fking dummie.”  But like, that obviously doesn’t result in any less syncs running on the backend (or reduced compute costs) so really, the only reason to make us change it all up in two weeks now is, I guess, spite?Airtable really did just tell us all to get fked.  There isn’t a whole

Is it possible to “pin” groups even when they’re empty? I am creating a table and I wanted to group tasks by “Completed” and “In Progress” tasks. However, I’m wondering if it’s possible to keep the “Completed” group visible along with the “In Progress” group even if all the tasks are still in progress. Would that be possible? Thank you!

I am trying to copy a series of tasks that have dependencies on the previous task, our projects have a set workflow and we are planning this workflow Airtable using the gantt view. We want to be able to set up our workflows up for each project from a template with all the dependencies and rough timeframes pre set up but we are running into a problem with how to achieve this. At present when we copy tasks, the dependencies copy also but link to the original tasks in the table, we want to find a way to create a duplicate of the task list and programme with all the dependencies linking to the new set of information, not the original tasks. Can anyone help me find a solution to this? Our workflows have lots of complex relationships and currently we have to set this up from scratch each time linking all the dependencies manually. We are really just looking to have a gantt chart template that we can use as a starting point for our projects. Any help you can give me would be much appreciated.

Back in 2020, during the throes of the COVID-19 pandemic, Airtable decided to launch a relief program for organizations that were helping with relief efforts, providing a free Pro account. I applied for our organization and we were accepted. When I asked how long we would have the benefit, I was told by the staff that contacted me that there would be "no time limit". But last week I received the following email:We’ve made some updates to our Airtable plans and will be rolling the changes out over the next few weeks. As a part of these plan changes, our Pro plan is becoming the Team plan, built for teams creating custom applications to support their shared workflows.You are currently on a free Pro plan as a part of our COVID relief program, which we put in place in 2020 to help businesses stay connected through the changes brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. While we are so glad to have been able to provide this offer over the last three years, the time has come to retire our COVID rel

Hi, I have invited a read-only user to an Interface. There are many read-only users added to it and ideally they would not know what other users have access to it.If a read-only user navigates to the lower left corner while being on the Interface there's the Share button which can take you to the Manage Access tab and it provides an overview of all users.I have the workspace sharing setting 'Restrict adding new collaborators to this workspace, its bases, and its interfaces' on. 'Restrict Interface Sharing' is also turned on in the Interface settings.I have the 'Team' plan for the Workspace. Is there a way that I prevent read-only users from sharing the Interface and seeing the users?Thanks!

What does it mean if a dependency is categorized as "Fields" (as opposed to View configurations, etc.)? What triggers that type of dependency?

Hi there,I'm working on an overview to determine the workload/capacity of my online marketing team. In Airtable I have 3 different tables:A table with our clients. This consists of multiple columns of data, but for this question only the client name is relevant.A table with all the individual tasks made up as rows. A task consists of a link to the table with the client names, the service we provide (SEO, SEA, Meta, CRO etc.), the amount of hours we have for each task, a link to a different table that contains our individual team members so we can link each row/task of data to a specific person, a multi select column containing each month of the year since some tasks run for 1-3 months while others apply to the entire year, and a multi select column indicating if it's a monthly recurring or a one-time task.  A table with our team members. This table has the name of our team members as rows, a column with a formula that pulls in the sum of the total amount of hours from recurri

Hello. Currently I am using Airtable free version with Softr free version to run an webapplication. Now with the new pricing plan of Airtable, will I still be able to connect my Airtable base with my Softr application if I stay on the Airtable free version?

Hi all, I need to filter the “link to another record” field depending on another field in my table. Example : I have a link to my “article base” in my invoice table : if I have “door” in my “department field”, I want that the link only show me the door article, means the “door view” of my article base. If it’s “tile” in my “department field”, I only want to see the “tile view”. I know I can half make it with the “limit to a view”, but it is not enough. I will have to create as much field as views, and it’s not really practical. Thanks for your feedback

Hello,I have a 'Base A' with a sync table connected to another 'Base B'.Bearing in mind the new upcoming changes to the Airtable plans, do both bases need to be in the same workspace? 'Base A' will be in a Team Plan Workspace, but 'Base B' could remain in the free plan (in another workspace) because its data and features are well-suited for the free plan.It is a very simple question but, honestly, I did not find the answer anywhere in the community.Thank you very much!
