Hi! I created a field that concatenates the last name and full name in a table. I am trying to write a function that takes the 2 letters first letter of the first name and 2 last letters of the last name. But it only returns the 2 first letters of the first name. Here is the formula CONCATENATE( UPPER( LEFT( {Full Name},2), RIGHT( {Full Name},2) )) How can we make it happen ? Thank you

Hi, can you help me? I need to sum 16% if the field “Incluir IVA” contains 16%, if it doesn’t, just do the first arithmetic operation. Thank you

Hello! I am building out a new base for my department which runs a variety of Programs throughout the year. Thus far I have set up some dummy data (i.e the “steps” you see in the screenshot) to successfully link my tasks to projects. There is a flow to how we approach the different programs we offer in terms of our when open applications, when we contract instructors for a workshop and so on and so forth. I have it set up so that every time I create a new project - based on the project I select, the are a number of tasks that will be automatically generated. I am now hoping to make it so that when a “Program Start Date” is entered, the “Task Due Date” will auto populate a deadline for each task based on a formula that aligns with our overall event timelines. Based on some previous community posts and through general research I see that the SWITCH formula might be the right way to go. However, after trying to create and implement what I thought was a proper formula - there are no tasks

I have this formula WORKDAY({Release Date},-{weeks out in #days}) it returns the date that I need but if there is a cell with Release Date empty, it returns #ERROR. I have tried this formula IF( AND( {Release Date}, {weeks out in #days} ), DATETIME_DIFF({weeks out in #days},{Release Date},‘date’), BLANK()) it removes the #ERROR on the cells that it should, but it puts #ERROR in all of the date fields, I lose the dates that I need. I have tried this formula WORKDAY({Release Date},-{weeks out in #days}, BLANK()) this one puts #ERROR in all cells. what I need: the first formula that returns dates, but if the {Release Date} cell is empty, I want to see a blank rather than #ERROR.

Surely this is an easy formula, but I just can’t get my brain to bend this way: I am using Airtable for my timesheet for my employees. I would like to improve upon my existing “Total Hours” formula by showing “Total Hours by task” , and each task is a single select item in another field. Here’s my “Total Hours” formula currently: DATETIME_DIFF({Time Out},{Time In},‘minutes’) / 60 Field for the different tasks is aptly named: “Task” Specific Single Select is “Teaching” Please help! Thanks!

Hi there, I noticed that the HTML attachment preview seems to be unable to render Unicode characters. Characters like typographic apostrophes or em-dashes turn into garbage character sequences. (See attached screenshots.) Is this a known bug? Is there a workaround available?

Hi Community, I have a table with multiple records. Each record has the name of a colleague in the first column/field, an email in the second column, a link for that email in the third column, and the weekday in the fourth column. E.g., Record 1: Simon, simon.g@gmail.com, URL 1, Thursday Record 2: Jack, jack.f@gmail.com, URL 2, Thursday I need to send the links to the email addresses for each person. Since each link is specifically designed for that colleague, I would have to send individual emails to each colleague. Is there a way to automate the process? So that by every Friday, Airtable could automatically send URL 1 to Simon and URL 2 to Jack, and so on for every colleagues. Thanks!

Hello, I am new here. I am also new to formulas. Have managed to work out the formula to calculate the number of 12hr shifts between two date/time fields. ROUNDUP(((DATETIME_DIFF({DepartureDate},{ArrivalDate},‘minutes’) /60 ) /12), 0) My struggle is that shifts are from 06:00 to 18:00 day shift and 18:00 to 06:00 night shift. Therefore if a start time is any time between 06:00 and 18:00 I need it to 'snapback to the default start 06:00. And the same for if the start time is any time between 18:00 and 06:00, I need it to ‘snapback’ to the default start 18:00. Bearing in mind that these are date and time fields formatted YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm. Can anybody help with the correct formula? I hope my explanation makes sense!

Depsite @Justin_Barrett’s help last time, I still cannot figure out simple regex patterns. This time, I’m combining in a roll-up year and value and am trying to extract the value based on a date. IF( AND(Date, Values), REGEX_EXTRACT( Values, "(?:" & DATETIME_FORMAT(Date,"YYYY") & " )([^,])")) For example Values: 2023 530,2022 480, Date: 2022 Result: 480 Preferably each string would be Year:Value,Year:Value… but I was afraid the double dot may me some reserved character and dropped it.

Hello! I was wondering is there a way to do what this screenshot shows with a formula? I want to use the output of that formula to update an automation to change a single select field to show when the project is due. We can’t use the color feature anymore because we are trying to switch over to interfaces and unless I completely missed it, there isn’t a way to have the color feature on a record review interface. Any help would be great!

Hello, For my plant tracker I’ve been using a formula to give me an estimated date of transplanting. This has been working fine. Now I want to add a check-box, so that when I plant something in-ground and i check this, the Estimated date of transplanting box will return an N/A vallue. I got all of this to work but I have a problem with how to date is formatted. As you can see the last column has a different date format. This is the code: IF({In-ground} = 1, “N/A”, IF({Germination Date}, DATEADD({Germination Date},{Estimated days to Transplanting}+0,‘days’),IF({Estimated germination date}, DATEADD({Estimated germination date},{Estimated days to Transplanting}+0,‘days’)))) I tried to add a BLANK() after the DATEADD so I can change it in the formatting tab but it doesn’t work. I think I have to add a DATETIME_FORMAT but i’m not sure where to add it in this formula. Thanks for your help!

Hello! I have two fields. One titled: Naming Convention Help w/ this formula: SWITCH({Naming Convention},"Series",{Standard File Name (Series) Template}, "Movie",{Movies - Naming Convention}, "Awards & FYC",{Awards - Naming Convention}, "Free",{Free Series - Naming Convention}, "Series V2",{Series Naming Convention V2}, "Series V3",{Series Naming Convention V3}, {Standard File Name (Series) Template}) and another formula field titled Naming Convention Final: IF(AND({Language}&"" = "en-US", {Naming Convention}="Series V3"),{Series Naming Convention V3},{Naming Convention Help}) I’m completely stumped on this one and need to reduce the number of fields in my base, any way to combined these two fields into one?

I have a base that has a table for tags, a table with a list of clients, and a table with images in the images table I have images, a lookup field for the tags from the tags table, and then a lookup field for client client A’s red tagged images are image 1 and image 4 client B’s red tagged images are images 2 and 3 in the client tag sets base, I specify which tags belong to each client (tags can overlap) client A: red, green client B: yellow, orange, red both client A and B have images tagged ‘red’ in the tags table, it shows each of the tags, the images containing each tag and the client tag sets I’m having trouble figuring out how to create a grid view within the tags table that will show the images tagged ‘red’ but only if their client is client A. and then another grid view that shows images tagged ‘red’ but only if their client is client B.

When incorporating a % field into an email to be sent by an automation, it converts into a decimal in the email automation.

I’m working on managing a fleet of vehicles and im trying to automate things that happen when my “Fuel Log” table is updated. Currently new records are entered via a form by my drivers, I would then like to have the Mileage and Engine Hours that were entered into the new record from that form update on a separate table that i store general information for each of my vehicles on. Currently the tables are “Fuel Log” and “Assets” “Fuel Log” houses a list of entries updated daily by drivers when recording their post trip information, it is ever expanding and I GROUP it by date. “Assets” houses a static list of the vehicles we use, and is only there to contain general information about each vehicle, VIN, Mileage, make, model etc. There are never any new records in this table, only updates to specific records in this table. Im trying to figure something out like this. Record created for Vehicle 12 in “Fuel Log” Table via a form for “Fuel Log” Table. Automation Triggers Finds Record for Vehi

I am building an archive of the activities of my amateur theatre company. The main table is productions - for each production I have a number of fields that relate to people - Author(s)/Director(s)/Cast/Crew. These are linked to tables so that I can see all directors and what they have directed, all authors and what they have written etc. Now, in this group, someone might write one production, direct a different one, act in another and be backstage crew in another. I would love to be able to have a People table where it shows that Joe Bloggs as an actor in XXX, crew in YYY - so you get an overview of everything Joe has done across all productions. At the moment Joe is listed once in Actors and once in Crew. Any suggestions as to how I do that? The Base is here: Airtable - Brussels Amdram Theatre Archive

Hi all! Looking for some help with a script to use in an automation! Background Info: My company offers training classes to our clients and we have a base that houses two tables: 1. Training Master List This table is the Master List of attendees for all classes throughout the year. Includes fields like Client Name, ClientID, Training Completed Date, and Linked Record to Qualified Clients Table 2. Qualified Clients This table includes clients that are qualified to be featured on our list of preferred partners. Similar to the first table mentioned, this table includes fields like Client Name, Client ID, and Contact info. I’m looking to have an automation that runs a script every morning at 10AM. The script needs to loop through the ClientID field in each table looking for matches. If a record from the Training Master List Table has a ClientID that matches a ClientID from the Qualified Clients Table, I would like to link the Qualified Client Record in the Training Master List Table. I’ve

Is there any share view option in which I can share a view in a table to a selected group of people? I want a grouped and filtered view which can be only accessed by the managers and the other views can be accessed by all the people in the workspace.

Hi everyone, Recently I am facing an error with the following code: await myTable.updateRecordsAsync([ { id: record.id, fields: { 'Attachment': [ { 'url': "https://dl.airtable.com/.attachments/63001f29cc9836435b1ac84dd7dba62f/98c345c9/63NHT_2.jpg" } ] , }, } ]); The error It was totally fine before.

I’ve been using airtable for a couple of years on my own and have developed some cool and useful interfaces that I use. It turns out a bunch of others would love to have access to the dashboards I’ve built. I understand I can’t share the interfaces without making those viewers paid collaborators, which is ridiculous for some managers who want to view a page once per month. So what are my options? Screenshots? Stacker?

Hi there, Sorry to bother you with this question, but since this morning the synchronization between Airtable and Google Calendar does not work anymore. Although I created new records, they no longer appear in the google calendar where I integrated the airtable calendar via its url. Does anyone else encounter this problem? Strange thing too, I work with thunderbird for my different email accounts and in the calendar tool it no longer recognizes the url of my airtable calendar. Thanks for your help.

Hi. Imagine that I have this: let result = await table.selectRecordsAsync({fields: table.fields}); Navigating the API, I saw we can do this: result.records.find(…) but I cant’ fin any example. Can you explain how to use it? Thanks in advance.
