Hi all! I work at an university and I’m trying to figure out how to change Airtable Forms’ font so it can align with our branding policies. Right now we can only use it internally because the font is out of compliance. Please help and cheers to Airtable! Best, Marisol

I need help figuring out an issue I’m having when filtering a view using a lookup field. I have a project tab and a task tab set up. For the tasks, I have task owners set up. The tasks work in a chronological order. The first task needs to be completed before task 2 can start, and so on. For the projects, I have a formula set up that automatically updates the project status when someone completes their task using a checkbox. I want to have a view for each person in the task tab – where they can see all tasks they have to do, but I want them to ONLY be able to see the tasks where they are up to complete the task (aka the task(s) before them are all completed and the status of the project aligns with their task). I have it set up where it currently filters for the task owner, the project status (through a lookup field from the project tab), and if the task has been marked complete through the checkbox. However, for some reason it is not filtering correctly and is showing all of the task

I have a table with 500 students. 400 of them I have the photo ID. For all of them, I have the email address to contact the parents. I have a form designed with mini extension allowing a parent to log in with the student ID and the last name, in order to upload the student’s photo ID. I would like to generate to all parents of a student with no photo a personalized email allowing them to upload the photo ID. What will be the way to do it?

I have a Learning Course table that tracks courses with either a single session or dual sessions via checkbox fields. I have links to fields in this table that identify whether an enrollee has completed the relevant sessions(s). From there I have a checkbox field that indicates whether, based on the attendance, whether an enroll has effectively completed the course. I tested a formula field that runs the checkbox field for the dual session completion, but I’m struggling to create a formula that accounts for the single session field. I initially thought it was an IF(OR(AND())) type of configuration but nothing seems to work. Here’s what I tried: Works: IF(AND({Session 000 Output}>0,{Session 001 Output}>0),{<TRIGGER> Completed Course}=1,{<TRIGGER> Completed Course}=0) Doesn’t Work: IF(AND({Single Session}=1,{Session 000 Output}>0),IF(AND({Dual Sessions}=1,{Session 000 Output}>0,{Session 001 Output}>0)),<{<TRIGGER> Completed Course}=1,<{<TRIGGER&

This seems simple but I am not sure how to accomplish this. I have my educators complete a form that requires them to enter their course start dates in ISO. This format is important for some concatenate fields and dropdown menus in other tables and forms, and thus I cannot change the format when the forms are completed. Currently, I am asking my instructors to enter the date twice: Once as ISO and once as friendly. In order to avoid entry mistakes and disgruntlement amongst the ranks, I would love to be able to do this with a formula. In short, I would my like instructors to enter the date as ISO and then in a second field the friendly date format populates magically. This: 2021-06-11 becomes June 6, 2021 in a second field. Thank you for your help.

Hi, I am trying to prefill a form using the following formula: CONCATENATE({Applications URL}, ‘?prefill_Which+role+are+you+applying+for?=’, {Name of opportunity}) The ‘Name of opportunity’ field contains more than one word, but the formula is only pulling the first word. Here is an example of one form’s URL: Airtable Apply to our roles today! - Airtable Fill out the "Apply to our roles today!" form quickly and securely on Airtable. When the ‘Name of Opportunity’ is actually ‘Logistics, Freight and Warehousing - DSV’. How do I ensure that the form populates with all the words? Thanks!

Hi Airtable Community, We are using the “enable rich text formatting” on a “long text” field, using bullet points to indicate points of attention or statuses. Is there any way to use this rich text and do the following: Filter out first / last 3 bullet points by using a formula? Filter out items under a bullet point matching a certain category, eg. text in bold - by using a formula? Screen shot attached where I’m looking if I can filter out basis eg. “Week 13” or filter on bold. Many thanks!

Hello all, I’m working through the parent-child relationships of a self-linked table. I need to build a hierarchy or path which traverses a multi-level hierarchy using a “child” relationship. Some other solutions in these forums are focused on a “parent” relationship column, such as the excellent solution by @Justin_Barrett here: https://community.airtable.com/t/parent-child-tree-hierarchy/44094 Using the above solution as an example, I would like to build the following hierarchy: I’m open to other feedback on how construct this, even if it isn’t a scripting solution. I’ve just used the above example as a starting point. I’m also aware of the parent vs child tradeoffs of self-linking tables. I’ve gone through multiple iterations of this project already, trying both approaches. Thanks for the help!

Hi, I would like to ask what is wrong with this script below. What I’m trying to achieve is search a particular word on a given string and make sure that the word is not misspelled by not having any additional letter or numbers at the beginning or end of the word (Special characters are allowed. Case sensitive search). What happens with this script is, it fails to search for the given word even if nothing is added before or after the word. I have tried my RegEx on online testing tools and it actually works fine. If you guys know any alternative for my scenario please do let me know! Thank you very much. let subcategoryName = currentSubcategoryRecord.name; let keyword = new RegExp(`[^a-zA-Z0-9]${subcategoryName}[^a-zA-Z0-9]`); isProductTypeExists = checkRecord.search(keyword); if (isProductTypeExists == 0) { //Product exists! } // -1 is returned for no match found.

Hello Can someone give me an advice? Sorry, but my english is not great to explain everything as I want. For a restaurant, I have recipes, with ingredients, and they came for vendors. What is best? 3 bases linked, or just 1 base with everyting? The 3 bases, that look logical to me, are: recipes, inventory, and vendors. recipes, with photo and calcs to estimate costs inventory, to track ingredients costs from different vendors, quantities in stock, and reorders vendors, where I can see their ingredients, with their contacts, and track the payments Ingredients is the only thing that must equal in all the 3 bases. But I never did any base, so maybe I’m thinking wrong. Thanks in advance

Hello, I made a script to query a API and update current rankings of records. I have a test table with 5 records and 1 is a empty record. See screenshot for my test table: code: //set the variables let api_key = '{apikey}'; let table = base.getTable('tesdata'); let query = await table.selectRecordsAsync({fields: table.fields}); for (let record of query.records) { let domain = record.getCellValueAsString('Website'); let zoekterm = record.getCellValue('Zoekterm'); let country = record.getCellValue('Land'); let gl=country; let hl=gl; if(gl=='co.uk'){ gl='uk'; hl='en'; } else if (gl=='com'){ gl = 'us'; hl = 'en'; } //build the api call variables var url = 'https://serpapi.com/search?q='+encodeURIComponent(zoekterm)+ '&gl='+gl+'&hl='+hl+'&output=rank:'+domain+'&google_domain=google.'+country+'&num=100' + '&api_key=' + api_key; console.log(url); var requestOptions = { method: 'GET', }; //build the api call variables //m

Hello, I have a problem with data manipulation when grouping records on a date range. Each record has a date and a time, (they are cash receipts linked to a cash register). Of course I have multiple records per day. I want to group these records by day and verify the data via another table (the cash register verification table). To group my records on a date range I have no problem (I used formulas of type DATETIME_FORMAT(Date, "DD/MM/YYYY ")). On the other hand I want to use the sum of each day and link this sum in another table of my database and I can’t do it with the rollup because it considers the records unique and not grouped. In short, on the one hand I have customers who buy, and on the other hand I want to do a data validation on the totals of several columns per day and this without having to link via a rollup each record of each customer. Thanks for your help.

Hello, My name is Teddy, I’ve been using Airtable for 3 months (I’m a beginner). I read community topics and it helps me regularly. But today I need help please. I want to use a trigger for a junction script. The script works when I run it manually (with the settings) but I cannot configure it directly in the tool. Can anyone help me?

Hi everyone, I have a fairly complex base tracking financials, burn rate, and runway. I have run into a snag trying to come up with a formula that will automatically update based on what month of the FY we are in (for burn rate). For example, I have a table specifically for burn rate. If I want to see our burn rate YTD, I have to manually update the formula with the current month (burn rate = (starting balance-ending balance/# of months)). Starting balance - ending balance is an easy part but currently I need to manually update the divisor (our FY is from Jan to Dec, so right now I am dividing it by 8.5). How can I get it to update automatically? Can anyone help?

Here’s my scenario: Every day I make a plan, I screenshot the plan and put it in a ‘plan’ table Every day I might make 3 trades, each of which are stored in another ‘trades’ table I have an interface where I review my daily ‘daily review’ table I would like to include in my ‘daily review’ interface, a grid showing all the trades for the day (so the daily review’ interface would need to list trades with the same date as is on the daily review table/interface. Each day could have many trades. But a specific trade can only belong to one date. I am not sure how I can do this. Can anyone help?

Hey all, I’ve been happy with my JavaScript progress but have hit a bit of a roadblock this morning, hopefully it’s an easy one. I’m parsing records with a matching string Name field - in this example “Tropical :palm_tree: ”. Then, from each returned record, I’m then filtering out any records where “myLinkedField” field is null. From the four records found, we return the three with Colours. What I’m now trying to achieve is to grab the array of linked “Colours” Record Ids found in the remaining filtered records (3 in total) - which I can do, but not in the desired return structure. My filter/map code returns the correct data, but I’m needing help to massage it into a simple array that I can then use to stamp into the original record after deleting the duplicates. //Tropical 🌴 De-dupe let table = base.getTable("Themes"); let themeQuery = await table.getView("Amazing Themes").selectRecordsAsync({ fields: ["Theme Name","Created","Colours"], sorts: [ {field: "Created

Hello I need some help with the Rollup, I have two tables: Points Tracker and Members In the Points Tracker table, there are 3 columns: Member Email, Event Name, Points. Whenever someone joins an event, we get their email and the name of the event that they joined and based on the event name they got different points. Same people can join multiple events and collect points from each event such as: first @gmail.com - Event1 - 15 Points second @gmail.com - Event1 - 15 Points first @gmail.com - Event 2 - 10 Points The Members table has two columns: Member Email and Points What I’m trying to do is to feed the Members table back with the sum of the Points a member got looking at the Points Tracker table: first@gmail.com - 25 Points I used Roll Up in the Members table but I need to manually select the related records anytime there is a new record in the Points Tracker table. For example, in order to deduct 25 points for the first member, I manually selected first@gmail.com - Event1 - 15 Poin

Hello! I am trying to make a formula based on an IF statement. IF one cell = something, then perform this formula. For example, IF( {Frequency}, ‘Annual’,({Cost/12})) I would like to have multiple “IF” statements & formulas. Is this possible?

I have several linking records that involve student teachers, what school they are working in, and what times they are teaching. What I want to do is compare one student’s availability with another student’s availability. I started with this: But I would like it to look something like : I thought about using a formula on my first table to create the information : ` IF(Student=“Student 1”, “Yes”, “No”) However, that returns “No” for everything. How do I set this up so that I can compare two or three students’ availability while eliminating all the extra information? For instance, if want to compare student 1 or student 3, I don’t want to see student 2’s information. (I am actually dealing with 12 students on 5 different days.)

Hi, One of the things I am trying to automate is sending an email with an attachment. This attachment is the latest file available in a dropbox folder, that would be uploaded as soon as its available. Here’s an overview of what I am trying to do: New file is available in dropbox folder > File is uploaded and added to attachment column in airtable base > Status of row changes to send > Custom email is sent to set email. This seems possible, but I am stuck at understand how to let airtable know that new file is available. How would you create this?

Hi there! I’m not a developer but I trying to write a script. Please tell me if is possible to use a variable to define the field name inside updateRecordAsync method. await table.updateRecordAsync(record, {"Phone": value}) the method accepts variables for “record” and for field “value” but I want to use a variable for “Phone” (without quote marks) like the example below: let fieldName = "Phone"; await table.updateRecordAsync(record, {fieldName: value}); I want to let users set up fieldName using input.config Please help. :pray:

If you create a template in Airtable Universe and someone signs up and registers with Airtable for the first time because of your template, do you receive referral attribution for this new user sign up? I think this would be fair, and a great incentive for users to create ultra high quality templates and then publicly promote them on their social media, courses, marketing, email signatures, etc…

Just a small thing, but the change your password flow is a bit odd. If I see two boxes, I expect the first to be ‘current password’ (for validation) and the second to be ‘new password’. Either that, or they’re both ‘new password’ with the second as a confirmation. Airtable has it backwards! ‘New password’ then ‘current password’. This is odd, and caused me to go in circles. Of course I could just be an idiot but this could be a lot clearer.

Hi everyone! I’m new to learning how to use the deeper aspects of Airtable and how to use linked records. The problem I’m having … I have a multi-question survey, and am trying to calculate the percentage that people answered a question “yes”. However, some people skipped the question, so I need to remove these from the % calculation. My goal is to determine what percentage of responses were “yes” from those who actually responded. I tried by making a lookup table for each question that would only show answers yes/no (so no blank answers), and then the formula COUNTALL ({my lookup field name}) to first tell me how many responded, but I am not getting the correct answer. Does anyone have recommendations for how to solve this? Thank you I
