Hello everyone, I am looking for barcode readers for my company, has anyone used the services of hdwr? I’m thinking of buying these readers https://hdwr.eu/en/products/30/barcode-reader-hd73 anyone recommending?

I set up an interface for reviewing and managing customer credit limits and I can’t figure out how to set a field to display with the numbers right-aligned.It would look so much better and be more readable with the currency values right-aligned the way they should be! 

Hello. I am working on a form to list specific medications, the vendor it originates from, cost, qty, etc. I’d like to be able to input the brand names of medications into the form and have the generic names of that specific medication auto-populate in a field below the brand name on the form and in the grid view. I’ve tried creating a separate table and inputting the medication brand and generic names in a list, but I cannot figure out how to use conditional formatting (or lookup) to populate the generic name in the form. Hopefully this makes sense. I’m struggling to describe what I’m looking for. Example: Single Line Text Field: Medication Brand Name - Adrenaline Conditional Field: Medication Generic Name (to auto-populate) - Epinephrine

Airtable has come a long way from when I first started where I had to pair it with Excel to get earnings and cashflow projections for my small freelance business. I now have four extensions that give me data I used to have to calculate with Excel, but I’m missing the fifth that would let me ditch Excel completely, and this extension needs the following formula: Projected Available Next Month - Fixed Number=“Left to Earn (negative)/Rollover (positive).”I have the first part to get these numbers and then I have the method to use the answer of the equation to redistribute those numbers in AT according to whether I’m short or flush, but I cannot get that middle calculation in AT.FWIW because my income is so variable, this data lets me even out my earnings and pay myself a regular paycheque. I started doing it manually on paper, then with Excel, then I started in AT and continually improved my base as more features came available. I really want to get to the point that I can ditch Excel and

I have automation where if number in employee table is above 6 trigger automation, If I manually select record and run automation it works as it should.. Just not sure why its not being triggered.So employee was at 7, I created another entry using interface, It moved to 8. Automation did not run.  

Does "commenting" an entry count as a modification regarding the default value "last modified date" ?Thanks !

Hi, I’m looking for a formula that will flag when a name is appearing in different columns in the same row. This is to flag scheduling conflicts. Column A, Column B, Column C, Column DParticipant X, Participant X, Participant Y, Participant Z Here is my current formula for 2 columns:IF(AND({Column A} != "", {Column A} = {Column B}),"Duplicate")It works. But when I try to add more columns, it breaks down. Can anyone help? Or is there another method altogether?

I have an IF formula to populate a name column.  I’m putting in a substitute formula to remove extra spaces, and it appears to be accepted (no errors) but then it just vanishes.  It leaves the “Substitute” there, but not the info about removing the spaces.Here is my original formula:Here is the substitute formula showing no errors: When I hit confirm change, it reverts to this: Any help would be appreciated, I have no idea what I’m doing wrong.  (And apologies for the large screenshots, I’m unable to make them smaller for some reason).

Hi all,I have a list layout in Interface which allows users to click into records.  In the page which loads, I have a list block which shows a list of players who have played a game.  I have it set up to allow users to add new players to that list.  It works as expected on desktop, but not on the mobile Interface.  On mobile any existing players are visible, but there's no button to add a new player to the list.Is this a feature that just hasn't come out yet or am I missing something super obvious lol?  TIA!

Hey all,I would like to update the access for some base collaborators who currently have full access to base & Interface to Interface-only access (these users were already shared as collaborators before it was possible to share an Interface without giving access to the base).In this case, does anyone know if I have to entirely delete these users from the base and then re-share them as Interface-only contributors (with the 'Allow access to data in the base' unchecked upon share)?Thanks in advance!

Hi, Is there a way to connect airtable to google sheets such that it syncs completely? So every time any change is made to my airtable the corresponding google sheets file will also be updated? Thanks, Chris

Hello appreciate the community’s help here. I am uploading a CSV file on a weekly basis (the data is from application form submissions on google form). So every week I am getting new applications in. I uploaded last week matched the fields and all was good. I even started reviewing and syncing some applications on the airtable base. I had 10 applications last week. This week I got 17 more. So I downloaded CSV file (business as usual). I went to airtable and uploaded and suddenly i realize it created 27 new records. I proceed and on the base I find 10 old records + 17 new records (out of which 10 are duplicates from the old upload). How can I prevent this from happening, appreciate your support.

We are using Airtable to organise our plant nursery. We need it to track the stock of plants in the nursery and match to orders etc. Its a bit different to normal stock tracking where we might track "current stock" by adding to stock when we get in stock and subtracting as orders go out because we have to grow the plants from seed and there are often plants dying, not being good quality etc. So we often have to go out and count the actual plants in good condition on the tables to get an accurate idea of stock count. But we also want to be able to subtract from the stock count automatically as stock is sent out. So we have a conflict between what we want to enter as our current stock levels - if we have a calculation in the current stock field - auto subtracting deliveries - we can't simply type in a number when we do a manual stock count. Any suggestions on how to resolve this ?

Hi!I’m writing a script that will create a QR code that you can scan to open a record. It works to open in the data view without issue. But I need to have it go to an Interface.If I open an interface on the desktop browser then right click on a record, then click on "copy device URL", that URL will work on the iPhone. I can paste that URL into a note and when I click it, it opens the Airtable app and goes directly to the record in the Interface. Exactly what I want.The catch is, that URL has a bunch of extra base64 encoded stuff. I can’t figure out how to get the elementId , queryContainerId , and savedFilterSetId. Using this partly redacted URL for example:https://airtable.com/appXXXXXXXXXXXXX/pagLAWnn0AqECV5AG?detail=eyJwYWdlSWQiOiJwYWdZdkdwVG1VbXZ4eURpYyIsInJvd0lkIjoicmVjMktQeGpvbHpxc0dkV1QiLCJzaG93Q29tbWVudHMiOmZhbHNlLCJxdWVyeU9yaWdpbkhpbnQiOnsidHlwZSI6InBhZ2VFbGVtZW50IiwiZWxlbWVudElkIjoicGVsRHhZVTlPOFp3T3draTgiLCJxdWVyeUNvbnRhaW5lcklkIjoicGVsM0ltR0tBOVpQRmhqVEoiLCJzYXZlZEZpbHRlclN

Hi guys,I have an Airtable base with several tables, including one for “persons” and another for "sectors".The "sectors" tables link persones to fields specific to a sector.In the interface, for a specific sector, I had created a Kanban view where the stacking field was set to the ”person” :“Person” stacking field is availableHowever, after changing the interface, I noticed that I could no longer select the "person" field as the stacking field.“Person” stacking field doesn’t appearI have tried to replicate the table from the older version but I can’t manage to make the “Person” stacking field appear again.Could you please help me understand what might be causing this issue? Thank you! Marino

HI there - I’m about to pull my hair out and have been trying to figure this automation out for several hours now. I have a table called “Field Enrollment” where I am tracking “Producers” with their unique farm #, tract #, and field #. I have a concatenate formula to give me “Farm Key” which is Producer & Farm. I have a second table called “Producer Enrollment” that I want to be auto populated by the Farm Key. However, there are cases like in my example where there are duplicate Farm Keys and I only want the one. (A bit more context: In Field Enrollment we are required to track data related to the unique Farm/Tract/Field. In Producer Enrollment, we are required to track other types of data related to the TOTAL farm, so essentially a roll -up from Field Enrollment.) How do I create the unique record?!   Example Field Enrollment table: Example Producer Enrollment table:  Here’s the automation I thought would work and is saying is working (but it’s not)  

I ran into a strange problem in an automation.I am using a script to gather some data from two tables and combine it into a rich-text field. In the next step, I send out an e-mail with the content of this field. Turns out the e-mail is sent before the script has updated the text field!Even adding a 3 second delay in the script does not solve the issue.Curious if someone has a solution in place?Thank you!

Hi all,Have been scouring the web, AirTable support and various AI platforms to get an answer to this, but no joy so far. I am trying to set up automation to sync changes between Google Calendar and Airtable, including updates and deletions. AirTable support instructed me to set up triggers for new events, updated events and cancelled events. I am doing this on an empty table at the moment just to test it out. However, I am hitting a bit of a brick wall with the Updated Events automation. I believe I have the Find records action set up OK, see screenshot below (although when I test the step at that stage, it says Found 0 Records but I guess this is because the table is empty currently...)My screenshot: Find records menu Where I’m really getting lost is with the Update record part. According to AirTable Support, “the ID of the action that gets the information to be used goes in Record ID, and should look like the below. “This is because this Integrated Trigger is not directly related to

Hello.My time zone is Israel.I defined the time zone of Israel in the Date and Time field. But when I run formulas or automation on it, it refers to the registered time, as if it were GMT/UTC and this disrupts all my automations.Is there a solution for this?

Hi everyone,I recently subscribed to the $120/month plan on Airtable to use the "Invite Interface Users" feature, with the goal of building a secure client portal.🔍 What I’m trying to achieve:I’d like each of my clients to access only their own project status and files (like contracts, invoices, etc.) through a personal and secure interface, without being able to see any data related to other clients.🚨 The problem I’m facing:After subscribing and setting up the interface, I noticed that: When sharing via a public link or inviting users as guests, they can still navigate across all records within the interface. There doesn’t seem to be a way to dynamically filter content per user, which means clients can potentially see information that’s not meant for them. here is the public sharing link : https://airtable.com/appDYt3YzQdpYcnOG/shrUpygqc5VuKVW4OHere is the link to the new "Invite Interface Users" feature: https://airtable.com/appDYt3YzQdpYcnOG/pagkFj34FIhwvysX2🔁 My question :Has

I have a formula field that returns the URLs of an attachment field. If there's only one attachment, it returns one URL in parentheses. But multiple attachments take this form: "File Name 1 (URL 1), File Name 2 (URL 2)".Here is an example: "Screenshot 2023-07-03 141051.png (https://dl.airtable.com/.attachments/c53420d1c5692651db4f6c34e5ddc19f/8256aa0b/Screenshot2023-07-03141051.png), Screenshot 2023-06-23 130019.png (https://dl.airtable.com/.attachments/1d08cfcdd7ce28fa575f0c20738ae2ea/bc5c5421/Screenshot2023-06-23130019.png)".I want to write a formula that will extract only the URL in the last set of parentheses, no matter how many other files are listed in the cell (or just the single URL if there's only one file). In other words, I want to extract the URL of the most recently uploaded attachment, which is always the last one listed in the cell.

My Ask: What methods can be done to direct or redirect automation error notifications to other base users.For many of the builds, I create the automations thus all error notifications come to me when an automation fails. From what I read, if I want another user to receive them, they have to be the one that creates the automation and turns it on. I would need them to ‘duplicate’ the automation and delete the original.Most of these errors come with the interactive actions involving ‘humans’. A prime example is when a form submitter does not enter their email in correctly thus a confirmation email does not execute. These are operational details that the person I built it for can handle and address. I hate to be the go between for these errors or do something fancy with my inbox to forward them to other users.Thoughts in other methods or do the duplicate way? We are looking to get Zapier that might be a method toward a solution.
