Hi using this formula works… IF({Type of Task}=“CANCEL”,DATEADD({Check In Date},-1,“days”), IF({Type of Task}=“REBOOK”,DATEADD({Check In Date},-60,"days”))) But then I want to add another condition so have copied it the exact same way and it doesn’t work? I’m suspecting its to do with the number of ))) at the end as I have no clue why in the first condition it ended with ) and the second ended with ))) so have tried all number of them but they don’t work. Thanks in advance. IF({Type of Task}=“CANCEL”,DATEADD({Check In Date},-1,“days”), IF({Type of Task}=“REBOOK”,DATEADD({Check In Date},-60,"days”))), IF({Type of Task}=“CHECK PAYMENT”,DATEADD({Check In Date},1,"days”)))

Hello! I have an automation setup that when run “successfully” only populates some of the fields specified in the the action. Screenshot included below and highlighted where the errors are occurring. I also after a successful run initially eventually got an error message (seen in a screenshot below that “Could not find matching rows for string”. Was hoping could get some seeds of support on these two issues. Results of Automation From Initial “Successful” Run (The column Tags__ForLinking is the target field that updates as a result of the automation): Automation Setup: Trigger: Action: (1) Properties (2) Configuration (3) Testing

I am trying to update multiple records at once using an automation with a script. I received a lot of help by using the script referenced here: Update Multiple Records with Automation. Basically, I am trying to mark records in one table (called “Summer Registrations”) as “paid” AND link those records to the the trigger payment record. The trigger payments can be linked to more than one record, which is why I know I need to use a script. Marking all the found records as “paid” is working fine, but the problem I’m having is pulling in the Record IDs from the trigger step. In the screenshot, I want to put the Airtable record ID from the step1 trigger into the field marked “Receipt”.

I have a question regarding the upcoming change to Attachments within bases on Airtable (the annoucement email that just came out a few days ago). I am especially concerned about the expiring URLs and am not sure if this will impact my business. Right now, I use Airtable to create a weekly availability for flowers. I share a link to each week’s table via email and customers have a 7 day window to place orders. My weekly availability includes photos in the Attachment column. These photos are either uploaded directly from my computer or uploaded as screenshots. The change that is coming in November, does this mean after a few hours my customers won’t be able to view the photos in my shared Grid View of my weekly availability? If this means my customers will lose access to my photos a few hours after I send them my weekly email, then how do I go about “fixing” this before it becomes a problem?

I would like to build an automation script that deletes the record after 14 days of being done. Status = done Table Name = Onboarding Status

I have a base my team uses for resource planning and time tracking. I assign tasks and hours in the Gantt view, tasks sometimes span days and weeks (there is a start date, end date, and duration field). My employees then add their actual hours to the existing records as a time sheet. The problem I’m running into is that when assigning multi day tasks only one assignment record is created for the first day of the task, and all assigned hours are put on that task. I need an automation that will create a new record for every unique date between the start and end date of a task, duplicating all other attribute information and assigning the appropriate daily hours according to a formula. Is this possible within Airtable or do I need to use a different service? Thanks in advance for any thoughts or advice!

How do I write the equivalent of Excel’s PMT formula in AirTable field that produces the equivalent result in Excel? In Excel it’s =PMT(rate,nper,pv). In Excel I adapted it as =PMT(rate/12,nper12,pv)-1** which also produced the monthly payment as a positive value. I found this in the community: ({Monthly Interest Rate}*{Loan Amount})/(1-POWER((1+{Monthly Interest Rate}),-{Number of Monthly Payments})) I adapted it to this: ({Monthly Interest Rate/12*{Loan Amount}})/(1-POWER((1+{Monthly Interest Rate}/12),-{Number of Monthly Payments))/10 It was close but not exact and the small difference becomes a much larger difference in another calculation. Is there a way to do this?

Hallo, i have a problem with the script. i would like a template with next actions for a project with record picker function. but the problem is with my script, i have two projects with the same name always after the script. one project is empty and one projects with the template actions. Problem is the projectid var. The script create always a new record. Can someone help me pls with the syntax? // pick tables from your base here let projects = base.getTable(‘Projekte’); let tasks = base.getTable(‘Next Action’); // prompt the user to pick a template for our project output.markdown(’# New project’); let record = await input.recordAsync(‘Select a record to use’, projects); if (record) { // Customize this section to handle the selected record // You can use record.getCellValue(“Field name”) to access // cell values from the record output.text(You selected this record: ${record.name}); let projectId = await projects.createRecordAsync({ ‘Projekte’: record.name, }); await tasks.createRecord

I am trying to create a field that will show a flag when one of two conditions are met around a Platform Due Date: Delivery Date is after the Platform Due Date Submitted Date is within 56 days (or 8 weeks) of Platform Due Date I also don’t want it to show anything if there’s no Platform Due Date (field is blank), as this field/column doesn’t apply for all records. I’m not getting any errors, but it’s also not showing the flag for a record that was submitted 3/29/22 but was due 3/7/22. In this case, the submitted date is after the due date, but there will be future cases where the submitted date is before the due date, but still less than 8 weeks or 56 days before. Here’s what I’ve got: IF(AND({Delivery Date} > {Platform Due Date}, OR(DATETIME_DIFF({Submitted Date}, {Platform Due Date}, ‘days’ < 56)), {Platform Due Date}, “Field Is Not Empty”), “ :x: PAST DEADLINE”, “”)

Hi all, I am looking to identify if a team is onboarded. We define onboarded if at least one of the designated people on the team participated in a session. Take the example below (columns hidden to simplify the example). The first column (physician team name) is the name of the team. The team consists of three people including John Doe, William Smith, and Sarah Johnson. We can see that Dr. Doe onboarded and he is considered a “live” user. His two colleagues are not, but because he is live that means the entire team is live. The ultimate goal is to group by Live vs Not Live and then Team Name like the screenshot below. This doesn’t work though because Neuroscience Team shows in the live section because Dr. Doe is live, but then also shows in the not live section because the other two did not participate in training. How do I create a formula so the Neuroscience team only shows as live? We cannot filter out the other two individuals from the grouping. Does anyone have any clever ideas

Hi all! I just started doing taxes as a small business and I figured I’d make an airtable chart to keep track of all the different tax rates in different counties. However, what I’m running into is this: When I go to formatting I get the response: Your result type is not a number or a date. Formatting options are currently only available if your result type is a number or a date. Here is my formula: IF( SEARCH("Online", {Location}), "0%", IF( SEARCH("Wake", {Location}), "2%", IF( SEARCH("Durham", {Location}), "2.25%" ) ) ) I’ve tried both with and without the % symbol. To be fair, the return in that column works fine but I can’t then make a later formula using those values because it doesn’t recognize them as numbers. Here’s a screenshot of the table I saw in another thread that maybe doing a separate tax rates table would help, but I am unsure how to set it so that if I click “Durham” on my Location it would

Dear Experts, We have two Airtables for teachers and students. For each new student record added, we need to assign the student to a teacher based on the student info (language, age, …). We have linked both tables using name field but now want to make this automation of assigning students to teacher. Each teacher will have max capacity of students to be assigned. Appreciate your advice for the best way to do that. Thanks Ahmed

Hello, Any idea how I would transform monthly totals into a cumulative total over time? I’ve tried using an aggregate transform (presumably a count operator is what would do the trick?), but it keeps telling me wherever I insert it that is doesn’t belong :neutral_face: Basically, I would like to show two different versions of the same data; displaying the number of records created on a table over time by: Total each month (bar) Cumulative total over time (line) I’m able to layer a line chart and a bar chart of the month-by-month totals like so: { "$schema": "https://vega.github.io/schema/vega-lite/v4.json", "title": "Records Created", "width": "container", "height": "container", "layer":[{ "mark": "bar", "encoding": { "x": { "timeUnit": "yearmonth", "field": "Created", "type": "temporal", "sort": "x" }, "y": { "aggregate": "count", "type": "quantitative" }, "color": {"value": "#0000aa"}

I can’t get this field to sort properly. It sorts up to a certain point then seems to give up. I tried deleting/re-creating the sort rule, even manually sorting from the customize menu. I contacted ‘Support’ with this, they did not even respond.

Hi Airtable community! Hoping for some assistance with an If statement. We have a workback schedule for deliverables based on an event date Workback:Materials Due: WORKDAY(Date,-45)) Occasionally, we will need to adjust the deliverable dates if the date of the event is determined later than the typical schedule allows for. I created a “Manual Deadline” date field. Manual: Materials Due: DATE I would like to create an If statement Formula field for Materials Due that will populate it with the Workback: Materials Due date UNLESS the Manual: Materials Due field has a date in it, in which case it will display the manual date. Can someone please assist? My brain has trouble with if statements :winking_face:

Hi, I’m fighting to find a solution to my problem, I’ve a table with a list of Volunteers (called “DATABASE”) and a “SERVICES” table where I put unique services and sign every Volunteer who partecipate to Service. Now I want to create another table that can automatically make a report of presences over a year, so I want to count how many time a Volunteer make a Service, in this simply case it would print: 123ABC - 1 456DEF - 2 789GHI - 2 Here an example: How can I do it? I hope I was clear. Thanks!

Hi, I am looking to find the initial letters of a UK post code before the first number. UK Post codes start with 1 or 2 letters and are always numbers and then letters. E.g. ‘WA1 1AB’ or ‘SK2 3LP’ or ‘L1 1AA’ or ‘M2 3NK’ I am looking for a formula to return the initial letters before the first number. So for the above examples, I would expect ‘WA’, ‘SK’, ‘L’ and ‘M’ Any ideas?

Is it better practice to pass only the values you need from the base into child components or is it okay (performance-wise) to pass down the whole record object? For example: function ParentComponent({record}){ const status = record.getCellValue("Status") const date = record.getCellValue("Date") const otherField = record.getCellValue("Other field") return ( <ChildComponent status = {status} date = {date} otherField={otherField} /> ) } vs. function ParentComponent({record}){ return ( <ChildComponent record = {record} /> ) } I’ve been doing the former but its gotten kind of disorganized when I’m using a lot of fields from a record. Does the record object actually contain all the data in its fields or just the method to retrieve them from airtable? Thanks!

Hi everyone, For the freelancing part of my making-ends-meet endeavors, I have started tracking tasks. Usually, that’s no problem with Airtable. But once in a while, I’ll forget to enter a task when I start it, and, instead, enter it when I remember to do so. That means CREATED_TIME() in the primary field gives me that later time, and that’s not helpful. I tried to get around this by using this formula: IF({Manual Date & Time},{Manual Date & Time},CREATED_TIME()) But if I toggle on “Use the same time zone…,” the CREATED_TIME() goes wonky. And if I don’t toggle on “Use the same time zone…,” the {Manual Date & Time} goes wonky. How can I get the time zone to be consistent in this formula field whether it’s autogenerated or manually entered? If someone could help me figure this out, I would be really grateful!

I am using Automation to send messages from Airtable to Slack. However, for example, in Airtable, the value of “$10,000” in the Currency field is simply displayed as “10000” in the slack message (with no $ sign, no 1000 separator). What should I do?

I have the following code that runs fine if I put it in the main body of my App but not if I put it in a function. I’m baffled, hoping folks here can enlighten me as to why. When in the main body, it runs through all of the records in the Teams table. When in a function, only the 1st record is updated. The portion I’d like to have in a function is the code inside of the if (allUsers) block. I have other functions that update in loops, what is so special about this one? let teamsTable = base.getTable("Teams"); let teamsRecords = await teamsTable.selectRecordsAsync({ sorts: [{field:"active members", direction: 'asc'}], fields: ["active members", "Included Players"] }); if (allUsers) { console.log("rebalancing"); let lowestActiveCount = teamsRecords.records[0].getCellValue("active members"); console.log("Lowest active count: " + lowestActiveCount); let included = lowestActiveCount - 5; for (let team of teamsRecords.records) { console.log("Changing I

Hello! One of my apps is crashing (showing the “Sorry, an error occurred”) screen intermittently and I don’t know why. What I know: It usually takes a minute or so of refreshing the app before it is able to load. The airtable record data the app references is changing a lot throughout the data so it might be related to that I have been unable to reproduce this error when I am ‘block run’ mode via the CLI. So far I have only seen it happened on the ‘release’ version of the app the browser console says Error: comment count out of sync a ton of times when I open it after the app crashes Does anyone have an idea what’s going on? Thanks so much for your help. Here is a screenshot:

I’m hoping to use JotForm to add some functionality for recruitment applications, and having some trouble with Airtable’s attachment field when mapping the fields using Integromat. Jotform is sending the attachment data as a URL, which I’m mapping to the attachment field in Integromat, as below: This successfully adds to Airtable: And creates a record with the attachment. However, it seems that the Airtable is then immediately deleting the attachment! I doesn’t do this when I manually enter the same attachment URL, only when it’s mapped from JotForm. Any ideas or prior experience would be appreciated!
