I keep attendance with airtable. I would like my clients to be able to request a copy of their attendance and see it automatically. Ideally they would go to a website link “please show me my attendance” and it would show them their attendance for a range of dates. Is this possible? If so, how? Thank you.

I am having trouble figuring out how to adjust my automation so that Airtable emails all of the attachments in a field versus just the first attachment it sees upon a condition being fulfilled. Sometimes there’s only one file to attach, whereas other times there are multiple files to attach. It takes time to upload all attachments, but my email is triggered faster than the uploads finish. Is there any way to ensure that the automation is triggered after a certain delay after files are uploaded? It needs to happen as needed (it cannot be scheduled for a specific time of day).

I’m working on a fun, friends and family base for recording daily quiz results (Wordle etc.). The idea is that people can use an iOS shortcut to parse their score and past it to an Airtable base using the API. The eventual goal is to build a friends and family league for these types of games and maybe use interfaces to display the league. I’ve got the shortcut working for the most part in so much as I have game name, the game #, date and number of attempts to successfully get the answer working. However I thought it would be nice to bring through the visual representation of the attempts - this is the bit normally displayed using emoji. For example… :brown_square: :brown_square: :orange_square: :orange_square: :yellow_square: :yellow_square: :green_square: :star2: :arrow_up_small: :arrow_up_small: :arrow_up_small: :arrow_up_small: :arrow_up_small: :arrow_up_small: :hammer: :star2: I was simply going to add these lines as a multi line text field in the base but I am st

Hello! I have a formula for a “status field” that keeps tripping me up. I have tried multiple ways and can get parts of it to work, but not all. Undoubtedly I’m a comma or similar away from the solution, but by now I’ve tangled myself so far in my own head that I have to admit defeat and humbly ask for assistance. I have the following columns that should be considered in the formula: {End Date} = Formula field {BiU} = Checkbox field {Last Shared} = Date field {Next Share} = Formula field What I want to achieve is: If {BiU} is NOT checked = ‘-’ If {BiU} is checked AND TODAY() is after {End Date} = :white_check_mark: If {BiU} is checked AND TODAY() is BEFORE {Last Shared} and {End Date} = :ballot_box_with_check: If {BiU} is checked AND TODAY() is AFTER {Last Shared}, but BEFORE {End Date} = :link: Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

Greetings wise ones! I have a base to track family medical history which includes a Doctors table and a Dr Appointment table. All appointments in the Dr Appointment table are linked to a doctor in the Doctors table. This includes past appointments and upcoming scheduled ones. In the Doctors table I would like one field where the date of the next appointment is calculated and shown and one where the most recent appointment is calculated and shown. How do I write a formula/rollup that looks at only the past or only the future dates and chooses the last of the past or next of the future? I’ve created fields calculating the appointment dates from TODAY if that helps. Thank you!

I need to make a automation that will reflect the date I update a Status field on my table to ‘Filed, Letter Received’. These are the two ways I tried, but i’m not sure what I’m doing wrong in both situations. Please help?

There doesn’t seem to be a way to create a new record with Interface Designer other than the button attached to the record picker. This is too bad because the record list is an elegant navigation element, but it’s redundant if you add a record picker pointed to the same table. And although there may be a good reason for this, they don’t sync. Also, unlike other elements, you can’t delete a record list, so it looks like I’ll have to create a new Interface from scratch. Someone please tell me I missed these. :fearful:

Hello community, I’m using an Airtable form and Make’s (formerly Integromat) Airtable module “Watch responses”. Every submission trigger the hook twice within 5-6s. Has anyone experienced this or an idea of how to avoid the duplication? Thanks!

Hi folks, I’m using filterByFormula param to filter records of a table but I’m able to select for a specific date. Below and example: request: https://api.airtable.com/v0/appFOOBAR/Spese?filterByFormula=AND({Importo}=111.22,{Data}='2022-04-01') response: { "records": [] } while with the request below I got a result: https://api.airtable.com/v0/appFOOBAR/Spese?filterByFormula=AND({Importo}=111.22,not({Data}='2022-04-01')) response: { "records": [ { "id": "recXXXX", "createdTime": "2022-05-24T09:38:50.000Z", "fields": { "Tipologia": "Spesa", "Data": "2022-04-01", "Importo": 111.22, "Name": "Prova 1" } } ] } so the example using not operator shows that there’s a record with Data=2022-04-01, I don’t understand why this record isn’t extracted using the first request.

I want to make formula that tells you in what Season we are. I have the seasons divided as follows: Summer = July-Oct Spring = Mar-June Winter = Nov-Feb I have a column which shows the number of the month we’re in with help of the formula MONTH(TODAY()) Then in the column next to it I made a nested IF statement which should determine which the season we’re in based on the division I set above, but it’s only showing the season ‘Summer’ when the month column has a number between 7 and 9 (July-September). With the other month numbers it show no result (i.e. a blank cell). Here’s the IF statement I’m using: IF( {Current Month} >= 7, IF({Current Month} <= 10, 'Summer', IF({Current Month} >= 3, IF({Current Month} <= 6, 'Spring', IF({Current Month} >= 10, IF({Current Month} <= 12, IF({Current Month} >= 1, IF({Current Month} <= 2, 'Winter') ))))))) It would be great if you could help me out.

Hello, I use the timeline view on this table to manage my rentals : in the column “Grouped By” I have all my chambers, and each record is a reservation. The chamber are Cottage 1, Cottage 2… until Cottage 20) But, when sorted A-Z, it do not includes the numbers : Instead of : Cottage 1, Cottage 2, Cottage 3, etc… I have : Cottage 1, Cottage 2, Cottage 11… What can i do to sort the column “Grouped by” from A-Z and 1-9 ? Thanks.

Greetings Airtable Community, Several weeks ago I received great assistance with a formula quandary involving the combination of two multi-select fields: {College(s)} & IF({Department(s)}, " and " & {Department(s)}) This formula assumed that the {College(s)} field would always be populated. Unfortunately, as we’ve progressed, I’ve discovered this will not always be the case—there will be rare instances were the {College(s)} field will be empty. In these cases, the formula returns: “and Athletics” instead of just “Athletics.” Is it possible to adjust the formula so that it will return just the name of the department (i.e. the " and " will not appear)? Thank you very much!

Hi, I want to query and filter a table based on several filters sent via the URI as parameters. I found the Airtable API doc suggesting that I use the AT API encoder and use FIlterByFormula. I tried it and it all works perfectly. but for only one formula. meaning it only works for one column. but I have around 8 columns I want to query. How can I add more than one FilterByFormula in the URI? If the URI Looks like this: “https://api.airtable.com/v0/app0uHEtrxyWp3uzn/tbl1MB1FIAfGmnX4I?api_key=NULL&filterByFormula=REGEX_MATCH(Socials_Lookup,‘Instagram|Twitter’)” how can I make it like: “https://api.airtable.com/v0/app0uHEtrxyWp3uzn/tbl1MB1FIAfGmnX4I?api_key=NULL&filterByFormula=REGEX_MATCH(Socials_Lookup,‘Instagram|Twitter’)&filterByFormula=REGEX_MATCH(Parent_Category_Bubble,‘Animal|Food’)” And keep adding appending to it, This is me testing it on Postman. When I try to add more than one Formula:

Hello, I want to be able to import transactions from Quickbooks, and link those transactions to a Client record from another table (Clients) in the base (relational). The first issue that I ran into was having an automation update multiple records at once. It seems the solution to this is a script. I modified one that seemed popular here to the following: let config = input.config() let records = config.QBRecords //.step2Records must match the Name field of the input field. let table = base.getTable("Quickbooks 7-14-22 YTD"); // Replace with your table name. for (let record of records) { await table.updateRecordAsync(record, { "Client": [{id: config.clientRecord}] }) } However, it’s throwing an error: “Error: Field “fldOyEuNcD7vGj42h” cannot accept the provided value. at main on line 5” Can anyone help with this? I have a feeling it’s something dumb… but I can’t seem to fix it. Thank you in advance. Script: Automation: Quickbooks table:

I want to find a way to automatically mark a record as “Used” if it is linked to another table. Is there a formula for an IF statement for “IF a field has information in it (if it’s NOT empty), add “Used”” Right now I have the following, but I’m receiving an invalid formula error message: IF({field}, “USED” Thanks in advance!

Hello! Context I am trying to develop a base to effectively manage project management and task delegation for my company. We create art assets for clients, where each asset goes through multiple stages of production before final delivery. This is somewhat standard project management, where each “Asset” roughly corresponds to a “Project” and each stage of production corresponds to a “Task.” We offer a semi-specific menu of asset types, so each asset type may also have different stages of production (and therefore, different associated “tasks”). I had posted a question earlier regarding batch creating tasks from a template to operationalize this process and was thrilled to get connected to the Creating tasks from a template script located here: Creating Projects/Tasks From Templates | BuiltOnAir Although I have no background in scripting or coding, I did manage to successfully integrate the script into my base, which is linked here as a tester (stripped of other functions I’m working on

Hi! I’ ve encountered a possible Airtable quirk and was wondering if anyone has a hint how to work around it. I have a Long Text Field with RTF enabled. In this field I have RTF formated text / Markdown text. In a formula field I’m trying to search this field for Blood Type: AB and if found output AB. Nothing strange so far. Only issue is that no such instance is found and the cell remains empty. I have tried IF( FIND('Blood Type: AB',{Profile}), 'AB' ) and IF( REGEX_MATCH({Profile}, 'Blood Type: AB'), 'AB' ) As I figure that it’s the markdown messing with it I have also tested IF( FIND('**Blood Type:** AB',{Profile}), 'AB' ) and IF( REGEX_MATCH({Profile}, '**Blood Type:** AB'), 'AB' ) and IF( FIND('__Blood Type:__ AB',{Profile}), 'AB' ) and IF( REGEX_MATCH({Profile}, '__Blood Type:__ AB'), 'AB' ) I even tested adding a &'' at the end of the field name, just in wild fishing/testing effort. No luck. Does anyone know how to do this? If I change the text to ‘n

Hi there! I’m losing my mind trying to figure out a formula for something I thought would be quite simple. Basically I have one field into which we input a URL (which comes from our CRM). I want to extract a particular portion of this and then add it to text in another field. To explain: The original field might have something like the below: https://author-p4650.adobeaemcloud.com/editor.html/content/dd/au/en/the-project/**about-us/our-favourite-restaurants-with-a-view**.html I’d like to extract just the section in bold and add it to the following: https://www.danmurphys.com.au/the-project/ to create the below in the formula field: https://www.danmurphys.com.au/the-project/about-us/our-favourite-restaurants-with-a-view I’m not super well versed in formula writing but have tried quite a few things. While the first portion of the original string (ending with “the-project/”) is always that exact number of characters (80 in this example), the issue I keep having is that the portion I want

I have a form that prefills a unique ID for each customer. They then need to select an event that they are signing up for from a drop down menu linked to another tables primary key. The problem I am running into is that I cannot autofill the event they are signing up for and I really want to limit the view on the events to events that have not occured yet, or even better yet, event that triggered this form being sent out. Eventually there will be 50-100 events and I do not want them all to show up, and I don’t want to have to delete events etiher. Is it possible to run an automation that sends all information from events to a past event table that has the same options and then delete the event record form the ongoing events field? Any other thoughts or suggestions would be greatly apreciated. Justin

Hi everybody, we are a small French NGO supporting family carers. We use Airtable since last year. We need to develop simple online training courses for carers : do you know with which LMS (Learning Management System) Airtable can interconnect ? Is there any you would recommend ? We need something quite simple - to push video contents & have simple quizz and interactions - and cheap (or free) ! Thank you for your reply! Helene

I’m not very sure this is achievable or not. Basically I want to automatically order all records sequentially all the time even i Reorder them. I have auto-number field. when I insert new record anywhere or move existing record I want to maintain the sequence, but that was not happening in Airtable. Am I missing any formulae or anything else?

Hi all! So I’m trying to make things a little easier for our Training Team and automating their Class Agenda creation process. Currently I have 3 tables in the base: Classes, Agendas, and Class Agenda Templates. Using automations, I am able to select a template in the Classes table (through a linked record field) that generates all agenda items for the given class in the Agenda table. Each agenda item created is also linked to the specific class through the linked record field. I’ve gotten as far as you can see in the screenshot of the Agenda table below. I’m trying to figure out a solution that will allow me to use the Start Time (given) of the first Agenda Item along with the Duration field to generate the start and end time for each topic throughout the day. I’m aware that I will most likely need to create and use formula fields as well. Any help is appreciated!

Hi there! I’m trying to develop a base to manage my company’s work and break out tasks effectively. We create artistic assets for clients, where each asset involves multiple stages of production (each stage roughly corresponding to a discrete task). I’ve created in my base an “Assets” table and a linked “Tasks” table - for ease of use, I was in search of an automated way to batch create multiple records linking “Tasks” to specific assets. I found the “Create child linked records script,” which is a great solution for this. However, this script only creates empty records (excepted for the linked field) - after records are batch created, I need to go in and manually enter the stage of production for each new task record from a single-select field. I’m wondering if there’s a way to further automate this function by “templating” the script so that it creates a record for each production stage? This would be especially helpful, as we create multiple different asset types that involve differ
