Currently in airtable we have each project as a line item, and we have multiple columns that note milestone dates:Brief Start DateKick-off DateIn Market DateOut of Market DateIs there a way to create a gantt view (either in the base or in an interface) where each project bar is segments to show the different working phases of the project using the milestone dates above to create the segments?

I created a database but not the way it is suppose to be, so now I created one with the same fields but it is relational now as i did not know how to build one. So, now I need to move all the data into the new one. Can someone tell me how, i saw something about syncing but I cant find a way to do it. thanksRose

Hello,We run a residential real estate sales business and have our office lead interface set up with the “current user” permission level. We’re encountering an issue where users in teams (e.g., lead agents, co-agents, and admins) can’t view and manage leads assigned to other team members, even though it's relevant to all parties involved.For example, we assign leads to the main sales agent, but if the agent is out of the office, we want to allow their co-agent or admin to view and accept the lead on their behalf. The team members currently get notified of new leads via and automation where they are cc’d into an email, but they currently can’t access, accept or manage the lead in the agent's interface as its only visible to the lead agent.Is there a way to set up team-based user permissions, or link team members one another so they can access each other’s data without creating separate interfaces for each agent or team? For reference, we are on the Enterprise Scale plan, so we should ha

Hi 👋How can I get the average of the top/bottom 20%? For example, I have this table:Name | Sales Sabrina | $10 John | $5 Maria | $20 Ann | $100 Ben | $5 Sabrina | $10 John | $5 Maria | $20 Ann | $50 Ben | $1I want to see:Top 20% (average sales from top 20% sales): $75Average: $23Bottom 20% (average sales from lowest 20% sales): $3 Thanks!

Am i missing something?  I prompted omni to make a new dashboard page with a custom element to view my rental inventory in the netflix style (like we were shown in the announcement zoom).  I asked it to create each row by the ‘type’ field and to show certain data when hovering over the thumbnail.  Maybe that part was too big a request…It created a standard gallery view of all my stuff…  Nothing really ‘custom’ about it.Anyone have success building custom elements with omni?

I’ve got a base with an “Event Finished” formula field that works like this:IF(DATETIME_DIFF({End}, NOW()) < 0, TRUE(), FALSE())It resolves into a checkbox, and I use it to filter out finished events from admin list views. My base currently sees about ~15-20ish events a day, which have times attached, and the folks that need to monitor the views have told me they find it really annoying when finished events aren’t filtered out of a given list view.And it works fine! I could be using IS_AFTER rather than DATETIME_DIFF, but otherwise, it does the job. However, I know NOW is a function to avoid. Its inaccuracies aren’t a big deal to me (if the formula clears out an event 15 minutes later than it should have, that’s not the end of the world), but its computational cost is becoming more of an issue. I assume NOW continues to recompute for every record, even those that are well beyond completed at this point. I’m trying to optimize things so NOW gets called less, so here are some question

Hi Must say that the pre fill form app that @kuovonne wrote is extremely useful. Thanks for taking the time to write it!! Airtable Prefilled Forms - Apps - Airtable Marketplace Prefill forms with field values on Airtable with the Prefilled Forms app. Quick question though. Some of my text fields are VERY long with formatting etc. is that still going to work when being sent via a query string? Seems to so far but I would hate it to break.

I have created an automation that sends an email with text and numbers. The numbers are pulled from two dynamic fields. One field is a percentage and the other field is a currency. However, the percentage and currency formats aren’t making it over to the email (sent by Airtable). Looking for input on how to format the numbers into percentage and USD currency. 

Background: I have a feed that inserts data into an Airtable base using the API. Sometimes the feed inserts non-printing characters into one of the fields.Specifically, it inserts the UTF-8 Byte Order Mark (BOM), EF BB BF, in the middle of a string. The field it gets inserted into is a URL field.The BOM isn’t visible in Airtable, but when we try to use the link, we get 404 because of the %EF%BB%BF in the middle of the link.For example, the link as displayed in Airtable would be something like “https://community.airtable.com/topic/2341”, but what is actually stored is “https://community.airtable.com/topic/%EF%BB%BF2341” . Searching for %EF%BB%BF in Airtable using filters or automations gives no results.Question: How can I search for and remove the BOM from field values where it appears?

I’ve set up a base that tracks a specific team’s incoming trouble Tickets. The main Tickets table has a single-select field for Status, which can be ‘Submitted’, ‘Needs further details’, ‘Queued’, ‘In Progress’, or ‘Done’. I’m now working on reporting and management would like to know the full time it takes for ticket resolution, but also how long a ticket remains in each status before progressing.I can’t decide which of these approaches would be preferable: Have an automation create a new linked record in a Reporting table with a time stamp when a ticket is created, and then create an additional new linked record on the Reporting table for each subsequent Status update. Then I’d need to do a little more work to compile all of the records on the Reporting table that link to each Ticket (I’m assuming via a bunch of rollup fields). I’m hoping that stamp can also include the name of the Status that’s being recorded Have an automation create a new linked record in a Reporting table with a

Is there a supported way to update Script Extension code using an API? For example, have scripts stored in a GitHub repository, built using GitHub Actions, and then deployed to Airtable. Currently, my team have just been manually copying and pasting code they build locally onto Airtable, which leaves a pretty large hole for human error (even ignoring the tedium of such a task).I have a horrible workaround that I may use if necessary:/** * Fetches and executes the JavaScript file at the provided `path`. * This can be thought of like: * * ```js * await import(path); * ``` * * Except this bypasses CORS and directly injects the remote code. * Wildly unsafe. * * @param {string} path */async function fetchAndRun(path) { const response = await fetch(path); const text = await response.text(); eval(text);}const myExternalCode = "https://gist.githubusercontent.com/ZacHarroldPartum/fa0f6b6e707c8de3edf725ea0747bba3/raw/2f2fd47a248e8c3954727755ad35ac00193ef113/hello_world.js";await fetc

I am using the new form builder and want to filter the values of a dropdown field, Product, based on the value of another field, Designer, on the same form.Although I found the "filter records by a condition" option, I cannot see a way to use the Designer field's value as the condition for the filter. Any help appreciated.

I’ve set up a marketing base and part of what I’m using it for is creating UTM parameters. There are a few fields that are inputted via form, like campaign name and start date. Each of those has a secondary field in the base where the data from the first is made lowercase, special characters and spaces are removed, etc. Then those reformatted fields are all concatenated together into one field called ‘Calculated UTMs’. As is standard with UTMs, several of those different sections are separated by underscores.I’ve set up an automated email to send these generated UTMs to someone on our GA team, and I’m pulling in the ‘Calculated UTMs’ field, but it’s displaying the final UTMs incorrectly - instead of showing with the underscores, it’s removing them and using them as indicators of where to make the text italicized. The field is also shown in an interface, and the underscores are correct there. I’ve tried using asterisks and backslashes around that field name in my automation, but it’s no

I’ve built a custom scripting extension that I intend to launch from a record button, send that record’s ID to the extension, and execute my script. I configured the button to launch my extension, which it does, but I can’t seem to get it to register the ID of the record clicked. I’ve tried using both useRecordActionData and registerRecordActionDataCallback, the latter example can be found below:function CheckAvailability() { const [recordActionData, setRecordActionData] = useState(null); const callback = useCallback((data) => { console.log('Record action received', data); setRecordActionData(data); }, []) useEffect(() => { const unsubscribe = registerRecordActionDataCallback((data) => { console.log('Record action received:', data); if (data && data.recordId) { console.log(`Button pressed on record: ${data.recordId}`); // Process data here } else { console.error('No recordId found in actio

Hello, I am filtering out a view based on the value of a “single line text” field in which I search for a specific substring (E.G. “Backrow”) although I got presented also the records in which there is the same word but with different casing (“BackRow) and I don’t want that.Am I missing something or the filtering for “single line text” is actually case insensitive? If so, is there any workaround?Thanks in advanceFrancesco

Beginner here, first post - certainly not the last.  What I am needing seems like it should be simple, but the solution is evading me.What I'm looking to implement is a way to find the total number of rows (volunteers) from table A and write that into table B once a week so I can track the total number of volunteers over time.I have linked both tables but no matter what field I try to run the COUNTALL on, the result always seems to come back a 1.  Ideally, I'd like to use an automation so that this total is pushed to the history table once per week.  Sure could use some help here.TIA,Dan 

Hi community, I recently had to solve the situation where I needed to get URLs from hyperlinks stored in rich text formatted long text fields and put them in another long text field. Essentially, just showing the URL, not the hyperlinked text. I ended up adapting the "Convert attachments to URLs" script (posted by Alex Wolfe). I had found a post here, that used a regex expression but this seemed to only work for visible URLs. I never could get it to work for my use case. I'd love feedback on what I could have done differently/better as I'm sure I haven't thought of everything... or even may have just completely missed something obvious. Thanks!// Script settings - Click the gear icon for the Scripting app to surface these anytime // Surfaces options to select the table, view, and fields needed in the script let config = input.config({ title: '🔗 Extract URLs from hyperlinks', description: 'Extracts URLs from hyperlinks stored in Long Text fields with rich text

Hi all,Seeing lots of posts from 2021 and 2022 about an inability to print from Airtable. When I go to print either a record review interface, or from the page designer, the generated PDF is an absolute mess.A lot of the posts say Airtable are working on it, so hoping that in the 2 or 3 years that progress has been made, or a work around solution has been found?If not, is it fair to conclude that printing from Airtable requires an external app and to factor those costs in when assessing costs for Airtable?Thank you,Ryan

Howdy all, I promise I really have looked at exisitng topics but there is information overload. Ideally I would like ot use ODBC driver to connect to AT to Windows via ODBC driver, I found several but they are all expensive subscriptions.  It seems AT may have its own ODBC driver now??  But I can’t find it anywhere in the AT documentation. What is the best extension or method to use data from multiple tables within a base, fill in essentially form letters WITHOUT using the extensions that you have to put the information boxes on the template.   The data I have for the body of the “letters” is sometimes several pages and I can’t find an extension that doesn’t chop off the rest of the text once it goes beyond the bottom of the information box or window we placed in the page setup.  We are printing the letters to PDF. Any suggestions for something that would act as “mailmerge” or is an annual ODBC sub to CCData or Devart the best way to go?? Thanks!!!

Hi All,I want to create a tennis league and publish it on my webstite which I created in Webflow. The database is to be dynamic, information will be added using a airtable form. There will be 16 players in the league and they will play each others. The goal is to get the current league table and ranking. On the page I want to display the results of all the players' matches (example - 6:2 3:6 7:5), the current position and the amount of points collected so far. Has anyone had a chance to do something similar? Thanks for any help and have a nice day 🙂

I have used SOFTR + AirTable to build a project management portal for my customers. The primary purpose of this portal is to have a common place for my customers to enter information that will be used in the video projects we build for them, so my customers must be able to login with a user (client) account. When onboarding a customer I need to create 3 records:The athlete record, which operates like the “company” record in a CRM The User account record which is a user in the softr platform The project record which is where the customer work will get done. It is linked to the athlete record and the user account record.The softr user table is sync’d/linked to a table in airtable called users.  Generally, I assume it is normal for the softr user accounts (clients) to be created using the softr studio interface. However, since I need to create ALL THREE records each time, I built an admin page in my softr app that contains each of these airtable tables, so I can create the requisite recor

Hello AT community,I am seeking advice, general or specific, on achieving frictionless label printing for employees using our base.Our current setup is fully functional, but the process is clunky for users. We have Dymo LabelWriter 4XL's set up at various stations, and we have labels designed in Page Designer. Our receiving station, for example, has a Receiving Interface, and labels need to be created for everything we receive.To print a label, the user has to click a button in the grid element of the interface for the line just received, which redirects them to the record in the underlying base (already a bad situation), then click a button that takes them to page designer, then click 'print' 3 or 4 times to get a label to come out.My background is in warehouse distribution, where our purpose-built warehouse management software would simply print a label as soon as something is received, that is the level of functionality we want to mimic, or come close to.So we are looking at 3rd par

Hi! I’m building an internal interface for my team to manage tasks. While I love the clean look of Interfaces, it’s frustrating that we can’t manually reorder records (drag-and-drop) within a list or table.In the base view, we can reorder records manually, but in Interfaces we’re stuck with sorting rules or creation order, and new records always go to the bottom.For teams using Interfaces to manage workflows (without exposing the full base), this feature would be incredibly helpful.Are there any plans to enable manual ordering or drag-and-drop within Interfaces in the near future?Thanks!
