Solved

I have two fieldsa start day for a task (date field)an estimated number of workdays the work will take to complete (a number).I want to add those workdays to the start date and count ahead to the date the work will be completed. I do not want to count weekends.I've tried the formula below to estimate the date the task will be completed by combining my two fields. DATEADD({Imaging Start Date},{Forecast Workdays for this Batch},'days') However, that counts weekend days as workdays, thus returning an earlier forecasted completion date.For example, if the work starts 6/1/23 and should take 10 workdays, the returned date should be 6/14/23, not 6/10/23.Is there a way to account for this in my formula or the data? 

So, I'm trying to add a day to the columns, but I need it to add exponentially... if you know what I mean.  It would be nice if we could click and drag like in sheets with this stuff. 

I hope this is the right place for this question, but we'll see!Context: We have a 'Tasks' table where each team member may have a list of hundreds of tasks (thanks to the joys of generating task templates). I would like to have a View for users that allows filtering out all child tasks until the parent task's 'Status' field reads "Complete". This would create a nice flow of the next steps for a project filtering into the view once a parent task has been resolved.The Tasks table has a linked field called "Blocked by:", which links to the same table. Here, users link a record (parent task) that must be completed before they can complete this task.Is there a way to 'hide' any records that have a linked record whose Status is NOT "complete"?  Then, once the linked record's Status is "Complete", by virtue of not meeting those conditions, the child task appears? 🤩Ideal situation - there are a few team members who use this table– it would be optimal if a single user

Big Picture: Im trying to accomplish a process to automatically link records between tables. The use case is automating a process where when a user updates their membership in an external system, airtable creates a new membership record and links it to a user account in our airtable database.  Basically our CRM's membership data doesnt talk to AirTable.  So Im using automations to export the data an ingest it into airtable.  Once its ingested, the membership data needs to be linked with a user record in airtable.The steps I think need to be accomplished.1. In table A, we Create a record with a {user account number} from a database not linked to airtable.2. In table B, I want to take the that {user account number} from Table A and match it to a record in Table B.3. Update a linked record field in Table B with the matched record from step 2.Im struggling with step 3 in particular.  Both the external database, and the airtable user accounts table have the common "

This seems like it should be well documented but I'm having a devil of a time finding a clear example. Goal: When a new Activity is created with a Type of "Posting Closed", I want to update the linked Applications so that it's Status is "Recently Closed".Table structures: ApplicationsActivitiesTitle [text]Type [single select]Status [single select]Date [date]Activities [linked record] Job Postings [linked record]I'd really appreciate some 📸 screenshots of a working sample automation configuration too.Thanks!

My task is so easy. When a new email is received, I need to create a new record in Airtable with data from this email. All things go well in Zapier from start to testing. I see all data from the email in the new record in Airtable. Great! When I try to publish a new zap, I see a new window like in the attachment to this message. I can not publish this zap. Thanks in advance for any hint on how to solve this issue.

Is it possible to export a set of automations. I am working across multiple Airtables but require to use similar automations across them all. It would save lots of time if I could export them and import them to different Airtables.

Hello,I'm a fresh user of Airtable. During Pro trial I created some basic table with a form for people to sign up for an event. To avoid any accidental changes to the form after it was shared, I locked that form.Now the trial period has ended and I cannot unlock the view, or even delete it (after duplicating).In all the places that allow for unlocking the view, the option is gone. When clicking on the view's bar on the lock icon, then "Locked view / Collaborative view", nothing happens.This means that I cannot e.g. stop accepting entries. Link settings cannot be changed. The view cannot be deleted.I wrote to the support, but I'm afraid of being forced to pay $20 for Pro just to unlock one form...Any other ideas on what to do? Thanks

Hello, friends.I have two tables. Unfortunately I can't change how they're structured, or I would. So I'd love some advice on getting what I need from this setup.The first table, "readers," shows a "profile owner" associated with a "branch." Then there's a list of readers in the third column, titled "reader name." I need to associate those readers with their branch so I can show how many readers there are per branch in an interface report.The second table, "totals," shows an aggregate of how many readers are associated with each profile owner. But in the "totals" table no branch is listed.I'm hoping that I can choose "totals" as the source for my "readers per branch" element by matching "first name" to "profile owner" from the "readers" table. This would create links between "number of readers" in the "totals" table and "branch" from the "readers" table.I hope I'm explaining it well. It's complicated. I searched through the community, help docs, etc. to no avail. Perhaps one of you can

Probably a pretty simple script update here but I'm stumped... Everything just comes back as undefined rather than the value 1.  

If I create a View Share link in Airtable and email it to someone so that they can see my view, will that person be prompted to first create an Airtable account? Or can they just view the link (as I had intended...) by clicking on it? 

Hi there! This is a very newbie question, but is there a formula for cutting numbers out of a string? For example, if I have the value 01 Lorem ipsum and I want it to read Lorem ipsum what formula would I use?

It's a bit of a silly question, but I am a little alarmed that I have used up 39,000 automation runs out of the 50,000 available for my workspace ( I am on the pro plan ). Just wondering if it renews monthly, and how can I add more if I need to?My business is expanding and the amount of automations might reach the limits eventually, there should be a way to add more runs separately hopefully?

HiI would like to know the pros and cons of using Airtable scripting extension to save emails  sent to either a domain specific mail id (like "someuser@exampledomain.com" ) or to a gmail account. I think there are some extensions in market place which does this job but it has recurring cost. For instance if we plan to use gmail account as the mail receiver then I think gmail API can be used to create a custom scripting solution to store emails (along with attachments) into Airtable base. I think the same approach works with other domains as well as long as they share an API to read e-mails. Please share feedback on this approachThanksHenry

Hey AllI have a business producing about 10 000 records a month, that's going to double in a few months. Will it be feasible to create a new base each month and move the previous months data to a "backup" base?Thanks in advance!

Hello,I'm seeing conflicting info floating around and nothing within my account settings that indicates when my automation limit/usage resets.And I hear 50 total unique automations triggers per Base is the limit, but there is a way to purchase/add more to our account?Reset Usage:My billing cycle appears to be on the 22nd and we are currently at 37,000/50,000 which seems unusually high in just a week, so it makes sense that it is the 1st of the month.We are on the PRO planI've seen info saying it resets on the 1st and some on your billing date.Can someone help?I have a 40,000 run I need to do on my data base and am worried about using them all up today (13,000) and then being out of automations until my next billing cycle of 22nd.  That would be a problem, esp since we can't purchase more.Total Unique Automation TriggersI've hit my limit of 50 several timesHad to combine some, make them more efficientDelete someI read there is a way to purchase additional automations.  Anyone

hello, I'm trying to make a table where employees upload two dates through a form, when they go on vacation and when they return.So far so good, I was able to make a formula that counts the weekdays and these are subtracted from the number of available vacation days (vacations days left) . What I do not know is how to accumulate the days taken in the event if this person fills out the form againMaybe there is a simpler solution to this problem.Thank you

Hi,I'm trying to validate customer's mails, to send them automated mails.I created a column validating another Email column in my relevant table, but the formula shows me that the mail doesn't match the regex, even though I know it's a working mail.the formula is: IF((REGEX_MATCH({Email}, "[A-z0-9.+-_]+@[A-z0-9-]+\\.[A-z]+/g")),"Yes","No") I've basically took it from here:https://support.airtable.com/docs/guide-to-regex-functions  the example is this:besor23@gmail.com Can someone please assist?

Hi,I'm struggling a bit with a slack automation. the idea: we have a list where all new customer appointments go in. Every day at a certain time the automation pushes the total number of appointments into a slack message. Now we have customers that make more than one appointment and we would like to also understand the number of customers. It would need something like: length of records unique but I cannot find anything like this.thanks a lot for your support!

My first community post...In a table Results I have a structure like this:Category field selects from another tableProcess field also selects from another tablePressures field selects from a third tableEach row of Results has a unique combination of Category - Process - Pressures for which it provides numeric data (analysis results) in subsequent fields. How can I create a lookup with both Category and Process to  identify the Pressures and numeric results? Another catch is that Process is also dependent on Category, as not all Processes are available to all Categories.So ideally the user would choose a Category and then see available Processes. After selecting a Process, they get a report of all the Pressures with the numeric data in a report.Possible in Airtable?
