I have a long text field that takes the food and the preference of the user.Sample Input:Burgers (Enjoy), Pasta (Ok), Seafood (Nope), Pork (Ok), Beef (Ok), Vegies (Enjoy) I want to get all the texts that are "Enjoy"-ed by the user.Expected Output:Burgers, Vegies What formula can I use to get this output?

Thank you for considering to help me! Here's the process I'm trying to create:A new record is created via a form which will have a start and end date (i.e. 7/3-7/28)Based on the timeframe (above), I would like to set up an automation where additional new records are created (within the same table) for each week within that timeframe. (i.e. a new record with the dates 7/3-7/7; another record with the dates 7/10-7/14; another one for 7/17-7/21 and the last one for 7/24-7/28). There will be other fields that I'd like to copy from the original record as well. I'd like to avoid a script and just use formulas and automations, but am open to a script (although will need help writing one!) if that's the best/only option.Thank you!  

Hello,I am trying to debug why a certain script I wrote for automations failed because it takes more than the allowed 30 seconds. It seems that Airtable JavaScript environment doesn't support parallel execution of asynchronous tasks. Is that correct ? What can I don if I want to perform this kind of code: await Promise.all([ updateRemoteDB(), updateRemoteDB() ])Thanks,Yaniv

Apologies in advance if this is elsewhere or common knowledge or the query is posted in the wrong location (Formulas). I did look all around to find a similar Q&A elsewhere (found some close but none exactly what I was looking for), so...TWO sample use case needs for the following:1) Gardening: calculating when to sow or transplant a crop indoors or outdoors in relation to estimated frost dates.2) Annual Events (film festivals, awards shows) that occur at about the same time every year.Q1: How can I have a date withOUT the year? (reworded: How can I set up ballpark seasonal dates to faciliate copying over every year?)A-ish? I know I can do three columns (month, day, year) - but then I can't set up an annual calendar subscription, right?Q2: Is there a way to do a formula to calculate X# of weeks before a key date (i.e.: to add or subtract from the earliest frost date in a column).?Thank you!

Hello guys,I'm trying to create an automation that:When a new record is created -> Compare "E-mail" field with existing records -> If true, do something.The issue I'm facing is that: The automation is comparing the email to the contact being created instead contacts already created and always return "True" obviously.I'm I doing something wrong? Or is there any way other way to achieve this? Thanks in advanced

I have a problem using Automation to create a link between records in two tables.I have Table A and Table B.  Table A has a link field (’Link-A-B’) to Table B.  Table A also has a Form to create a new record in its table.  The form requires user to choose an entry into the Link-A-B field.  If the user selects a particular choice for the value, then the Form exposes another field in A (‘New Option’) that the user is required to type a value into.  Upon submission of the Form in this case—with a non-empty value in the’ New Option’ field—  an automation is triggered to create a new record in table B, and to enter the value of ‘New Option’ in A into the primary field in the new record in B. All the above I have working just fine in my Automation so far.  But the next action that I want to subsequently have happen in my automation is to change the link value in the Link-A-B field in the new A record: From what the Form user had selected, To a link to

If you share a read-only Interface, is the person with read-only access required to create an Airtable account? I wish to share an interface, but I don't want the read-only user to create an Airtable account and login each time they have to view the Interface.

I have a table called “Plans” that pulls in lookup values from my “Contracts” table, which is linked. I’ve been able to add the standard fields from Plans to a Page Creator page without an issue. However, when I try to add a lookup field from Plans, it doesn’t work. I can drag the field to the Page Creator, but the box never gets populated. Similarly, If I try placing a linked field on the page, it appears as a black box with its original field name from the Contracts base. See screen shot below. Any suggestions for getting the linked/lookup fields to work in Page Creator?

I have a formula that is achieving 2/3 of my goals, but I need some help figuring out that last 1/3! I am trying to add an "SOS" flag to any to-do that meets one or more of the following criteria:Has been manually flagged as "Behind" in the Alerts column.Has not been given a Due Date (so the Due Date field is blank).Has a Due Date that has passed AND it has NOT yet been marked as "Done."How would I structure that final part of the formula? Currently, I have: IF(     OR(          Alerts = "Behind",          {Due In} < 1     ),          "🆘",          "")I am trying to get the "Post job description on social media" task to be flagged, since it is overdue and not marked as done.Thank you so much!   

Seeking to identify if two numbers match exactly in both fields, such as 22 matching 22, and not partial matches like 2.  

I would like to separate a look up field (values separated by commas) into separate cells. I have information from Table 1 linked to Table 2 (Junction Table) that is linked to Table 3. Table 3 has a look up field (puling information form Table 1 to Table 2 into Table 3). The values in the look up field are separated by commas. (I am having a problems applying formulas to the look up field). Is it possible to separate these values into separate fields?

I just found out that both SET_LOCALE and SET_TIMEZONE functions returns an incorrect hour, at least for Europe/Lisbon and en-gb as per the below examples:SET_TIMEZONE(NOW(), 'Europe/Lisbon')SET_LOCALE(NOW(), 'en-gb')Both these functions as returning 1 hour less than the correct one.

Simple thing I'd like to do: Display the current date (and possibly time) on an Interface screen (blank template).  I created a field in the base that shows the date, but there's no way to display a single field.  I looked at the text object but there's no way to enter a formula in that object.Anyone accomplish this before?  TIA!

Context Unable to create an automation in Airtable. The path is as follows: An update in the "Sleep" field of Table1 triggers a search for records in Table2 that share a common field (using the "Name" field as the link). The automation then uses a script to update the corresponding records in Table2 with the updated "Sleep" content from Table1 into the Table2 fields, that have the same name, "NewSleep."Automation Path Image Below:My script is producing an error "'recordtoUpdate' is declared but its value is never read.(6133)." I believe what this means is the script doesn't understand or have a value it interprets from Table1 "Sleep" and therefore cannot update the the field of "NewSleep" for the records that have the corresponding name. Script:let records = input.config().recordslet table1 = base.getTable("Table1");let table2 = base.getTable("Table2")let newsleep = table1.getField('Sleep')for (let record of records) {let recordtoUpdate = await table2.selectRecordAsync(record

I have a base with two tabs:post IDcontent IDFor each post i can select a content: via link to another record (content ID tab)What I can't manage to get done is the following:I want to go to the Post tab and select "published" next to an post ID & it's according content (from content ID tab) and this information should then also automatically appear in my other tab: content ID.At the moment I found a solution but it adds an extra step. I have connected the two tabs via link to another record but I have to select the post first to get the "published" information transferred. Is there a solution to get it automatically?I would like to add new information to the content (select: published) in the post ID tab, also updating this information for the content used in the post, therefore this change should also be visible in the content ID tab.Anyone here has a solution for this issue?Thanks a lot 🙏

Hello guys!I’m creating a platform for freelance recruiters from all over the world. To help with registration, I created a form and I’m quite happy with it. Also, I would like to have all the registered users in one place in Airtable. I now need this form to be available in different languages: French, German, English, Italian, and so on. My concern is mainly with dropdown fields. How would you proceed? 

I have two Date fields. I need a third field that simply displays the date in the first field unless it's blank, then displays the date in the second field. Here is the formula I'm using: IF({Dev End} = '', {Deadline}, {Dev End}) The formatting options for both Date fields and the Formula field are the same:I'm having two problems. First, the output date in this new Formula field is coming back one day before where it should be. I assume I could just add a day to the result within the formula, but I'm not sure why this happens in the first place. I suspect they have to do with the Time Zone. If I display the time zone, I see GMT, but I can't seem to select my time zone (EDT) unless I also display the time. I'm not interested in the time.The second problem is that I'm not able to use the Formula field as the end date in a Gantt view. I received the following error: I assume this may also be because of the time zones.Can I globally set the base to use EDT rather than

Sorry if something similar has been posted already - I'm hoping to figure out an automation where when a record on one lable is labled (via checked checkbox) as a primary contact, that record links to the "primary contact" linked record field on a different table. In a perfect world, this could coincide with an automation where if the primary contact changes (a record is unchecked), that record is unlinked, and replaced with the new record.Or - is this possible to do with conditional formatting at all? I can provide screenshots if that would be helpful!Thanks all!

Hey all - I'm running a formula column with a lot of IFs in there. Only 1 out of the 6 possible responses returns a text field, the rest are date fields.The dates come out in a very ugly way, this is how it looks: 2023-07-12T23:06:37.000ZIt basically makes it impossible for me to use / property view.After some playing around with it, I've understood that the issue here is with the fact that one of the values returned is a text field.However, the way I have the formula and the intended use. Unfortunately, I can't do anything else but have a text in one of the IF's (since it's the if true, not false, that I could just leave empty).I've tried using the time parse formula like this: DATETIME_PARSE(the if formula), but the result is an error.How do I make this work?

The Airtable product team track record continues to baffle...I suddenly got the new record details layout experience, and although a bit surprised after having no mention of it in the What's New July 2023 edition that went out barely a week earlier, I was initially excited. The redesign is clearly inline with the record detail view on mobile devices (hinting at mobile interfaces coming soon??)...That is until I realized that it completely broke the ability to change edit permissions on linked record fields where the records are one-way synced from another base. As in, if you had fields that were set to editable before this update, they are stuck on being editable, and if you have non-editable ones or try to add new ones, they are stuck on being non-editable.If you hover over the "Allow users to link/unlink existing records" switch you see this message: "Users can't link/unlink existing records because this table is synced from an external source."To clarify: This started with

Hello! I am currently trying to extract information from an inconsistent string of text and having a tough time.Ideally, I would be able to drop the MONTH and DATE from the String of text and KEEP the all the text along with just theYEAR. The trouble is, both the intro text (represented as X's) and the dates are not consistent lengths. EXAMPLES OF TEXT:  DESIRED OUTPUT: XXXXX.RTW.Men.7.5.2023XXXXX.RTW.Men.2023XXX.RTW.Women.12.10.2022XXX.RTW.Women.2022XXXX.RTW.11.6.2022XXXX.RTW.2022Is there a formula that can do this? I am not great at these types of formulas (and I feel like this is potentially very simple!) - hoping someone can help! Let me know if I can provide further info to provide a solution. Thank you in advance for your help! 

I run a volunteer program where we reward our volunteers with comp tickets to our events.   We currently use a points based tracking system where they get 10 points for every hour volunteered.   I was wondering if there was a way to create something in Airtable that would help us keep track of how many points our volunteers have earned  and redeemed.    So whatever would be created I would need a way to add points and subtract points with ease. We allow our volunteers to bank their points to redeem and "upgrade" their tickets to better seats on the following scale:Tier 3- 40 PointsTier 2- 80 PointsTier 1- 120 PointsPremium- 160 PointsIt would be a bonus if the same base would allow them to request their redemption.
