Solved

Hi!I'm trying to create an automation where, when a record is created in one table, a record is created in another. I want one field's data to populate from the first table into the primary field in the second. The automation to create the record is working great, but I'm having trouble populating the primary field. I've tried a variety of combinations of actions, and it works in preview, but when activated, does not work.This is the automation in preview. You can see that the "Name" field is populated (primary field).However, in once it's in place, the "Name" field (primary field) does not populate.The current version of my automation has two actions:* create record* update recordThan

I'm pretty sure I'm over thinking this process so I apologize in advance if this is obvious to most.I have a field in Table 1 which when data is entered, I'd like that data to automatically create a new record in the primary column of Table 2.Table 1 is my ideas bank and when I have created a  "Working Title" (field name in Table 1) for that idea, I'd like the title to be automatically added to Primary Column in Table 2, thus creating a new record.Really hope this makes sense.Any help appreciated.

I’m trying to script some record creation right now and it involves populating a multi-select field, but for some reason I’m unable to make this updating work no matter how I try. I know that a multiple select field needs to be updated with array values only, so this is what I’ve attempted: var book_arr = []; book_arr.push(book_num); await new_table.updateRecordAsync(newRecord, {'Book Number':book_arr}); where book_num is a single value that I know is already a valid option for the multi-select. I also tried to pass it directly when creating the record as just 'Book Number':[book_num], but no dice there either. I don’t see anything in the API documentation about updating the value of a multi-select field, only updating the options, so not sure where to turn here.

I have a field that has stuff in it like this" 2023-02-09 Jeff Alexander Website"I'm using a formula to extract the date and the name so then I have fields that look like" 2023-02-09" and "Jeff Alexander Website"I want to make a calendar view of this table. It's asking for a date field. Even though i have a field that isolates the date ( 2023-02-09 ) it isn't a field type of date, so airtable doesn't recognize it. my thinking is that i need a date field and i need to autopopulate it and i don't know how. I'm open to other ideas for how to put " 2023-02-09 Jeff Alexander Website" into a calendar view

Hello, maybe this is not even possible, but if it is, what would be the proper syntax for this ?IF(VALUE({Total Rate 6})) >0, VALUE({Total Rate 6}), Blank() This field is showing the data of another column called "Total Rate 6", but i want it to be blank if the amount is 0(zero)

Context: I have two tables, Shots and Videos (with links between). It's possible one shot may be used in more than one video. I will export shots through a CSV into an InDesign template using data merge (Page Builder won't work for other reasons).Problem: I'm trying to specify a chronological order for the shots to appear.Ideas that won't work/aren't ideal:I could just drag them around into the right order, but since one shot may go into multiple videos, the order may vary by video.I could rearrange order of linked shots from Video table side, but that won't work the the CSV export to InDesign.I could do a single select list of numbers, but that won't work since each shot may have a different number for each video it's in.Any other ideas? 

Hi everyone, I'm trying to get this formular to work, and although it parses there's no output.   ARRAYJOIN(ARRAYCOMPACT(Field1,Field2,Field3,Field4), ", ")  The fields are a mix of and link-to-another-record fields lookups (of link-to-another-record fields) where the outputs all are fine. The reason why I'm using an ARRAYCOMPACT as well is because half of the fields are usually empty.Thank you very much ❤️

I know this is super simple, but I am new to formulas. Here's my problem:I have volunteers signing up for a rotation and I'm trying to make a view that will capture their hotel needs, which are generally: Check In one day BEFORE their First Day BOG and Check Out one day AFTER their Last Day BOG (BOG = Boots on the Ground).This is the formula I am using to get their Check In date: DATEADD({First Day BOG},-1,'days')It is not calculating correctly.This is the formula I am using to get their Check Out date: DATEADD({Last Day BOG},1,'days')Also not calculating correctly. Help & TIA

Hey, I am wondering if it is possible to do these things using the Block SDK:1. Check if an automation exists in a base/table by name. 2. Create Automations on a table if they dont exist3. Automate updating an automation scriptUse Case: I have a Blocks SDK extension and an automation that both depend on each other(decoupled) if the extension exists I want to make sure the user has also set up an automation that goes along with the extension.I want to check if an automation exists under a certain string name using regex. Thanks

Hi everyone,An application is sending me a date in ISO format (2022-02-13) and I want to convert it in the european date format without dropping the day and month leading zeros ( = 13/02/2022). I managed to convert from ISO to European but the leading zeros are dropped.If I use the DATETIME_FORMAT with the 'L' specifier, the leading zeros are back but the format reverse to the american format ( = MM/DD/YYYY).Is there a way to keep both the european format and the leading month and day zeros ?Thanks in advance for your help, Gilles

Hello, I would really appreciate if someone could help me to solve my puzzle)I have a table "Schedule" where we input addresses, every address goes into 3 separate fields, "Street Name", "City" and "Zip Code"So I created an automation (check images attached) where "Zip Code" field is auto filled with preset zip code when a "City" is chosen. Everything works fine, but automation works with one city only and my question is, is there a chance to modify automation where I can add options to fill zip codes for other cities in the same automation, not just one or I need something else and I chose the wrong path to do it.I tried to create a separate automation for every city we have in the "City" field, but very quickly I was told by Airtable that my plan allows me to have only 40 automations and I have around 100 cities in the "City" fieldThank you in advance for those willing to help. 

Hello,    Hope someone will be able to help me, I am trying to create a formula field for my employee to auto calculate his work hours for a day. He fills out the form and I am tired to calculate his hours per day.So, I've got one field "IN" with multiple select options "8:00am" "8:30am" and "9:00am" and another field "OUT" with multiple select hours "3:00pm", "3:30pm" and "4:00pm" (I have more options, but it does not matter here), so ones IN and OUT are filled, I want to have a formula field calculating how many hours my employee worked today. I thing it should be done as logical formula, like if IN is *8:00am" and OUT is "3:00pm" then HOURS result is 7, something like this, but I can not make it right, anybody could help?

Hi all,I'm a complete beginner and have never worked with API's before. So I'm really sorry, but I'm hoping someone could help me, as I've been googling for days and don't know what is what anymore!I am trying to link my shipping solution (Shipstation) to my Airtable database.So far, I've managed to successfully set up a webhook, so when an order is shipped, Shipstation sends a webhook to Airtable. However the webhook is just a "resource_url", not actual useful data (like an order number). I've gone to the "resource_url" (which needs a username and password) and it has all the data I need.So I guess I need to "run a script" and write an API to go and fetch the data from the "resource_url", so I can then use the order number to "update record".I've added the "resource_url" from the webhook as a variable / input config.So what I need the script to do is;Go to "resource_url" (which is the input config called SHIPSTATION)Login with Username and passwordOutput the dataCan anyone h

I am working on Zoho 's cliq communication platform and I am developing an Airtable extension for that platform. When I tried to create connection with Airtable (actually the platform has a internal frame work kind of thing ) through which oauth connections can be made by providing the client id, secret and other credentials and the rest of the things are taken care of by the backend. And when I tried to create the connection. The authentication tab tried to load and closes automatically without any sign. I have provided below the url sent from the Zoho cliq platform to establish connection. I have intentionally provided the redirect uri wrong to catch the req formatRequest:http://airtable.com/oauth2/v1/authorize?client_id=<clientId>&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fdeluge.zoho.com%2Fdelugeauth%2Fcallback&response_type=code&scope=data.records%3Aread+data.records%3Awrite&state=fbfa4c39db9a4a9cd58b66b4126468dcda979b338eb5cb3ebefd4d7fe88403ad47b0683e85a

Hi,Am using a formula I've used in bases before, but it's behaving strangely.  It's subtracting a day off of the returned value.  I have two fields with dates.  Only one of the two will ever have a date in it.  I want the formula to grab the date from whichever field has a date already populated in it (from another table)Here is the formula.  IF({Shoot Date Rollup (From Scenes)}="", {Shoot Date Rollup (from Set List)}, {Shoot Date Rollup (From Scenes)})Example:Shoot Date Rollup (From Scenes) = 7/25/23The formula Returns 7/24/23Same if it's the other field that has data Shoot Date Rollup (from Set List) = 8/10/23Formula field returns 8/9/23Thanks for any help.
