Solved

Hello! I am trying to troubleshoot a formula field. Currently I have this in the formula field: CONCATENATE({Part}," | “,{Objective},” ",{#}) to create the following: Looking at the first record, the result reads: Part 1: Competent Leader | Heart 1 However, I would like create a search that allows the final formula to read as such: Part 1 | Heart 1 I want it to be able to search the {Part} field, but not list the entire title - if that makes sense. Seems simple enough, but I had problems using the Find or Search field.

Hi Everyone, I have been trying to accomplish an error check and I have syntax issue on the below formula. May I please know what is the issue with my formula? Thank you so much in advance. IF(AND({est_filing_date_range_start},{est_filing_date_range_end},{actual_or_estimated}!=BLANK())AND({review_type}=BLANK()),“ :stop_sign: ERROR…review_type CANNOT BE BLANK when est_filing_date_range_start, est_filing_date_range_end,actual_or_estimated fields are populated”, ",“ :white_check_mark: GOOD”)

I am attempting to create a Form to standardize intake parameters for a receiving team. I would like to know which user is responsible for submitting each record. Currently i am unable to find a way utilizing the Form view to have the user ID auto populated when that user accesses the form. Is this something that is possible. The only work around we have found for this is to create unique prefill URLs for each user, which is not ideal and still allows the user to manually modify that info.

Hello all Here is my situation: I have collaborators working on TableFoo on a certain amount of items. When they are done on an item, they change the status and other collaborators take over on it. This other team is working on TableBar To ease the process, I need to add an Automation action that looks for this status change and creates a record in TableBar whenever it’s triggered. Problem is, one of the field I need to transfer over is a MultiSelect Field and when I use the createRecordAsync() function as follow, I receive an error let newRecordID = await TableBar.createRecordAsync({ "Tags":TableFooRecord.getCellValue("Tags"), }); The error is obviously that the “Tags” field of TableBar does not have the same choices as TableFoo. I read that the Automation is not able to use ‘typecast = true’. So I thought “fine, I’ll just add step that updates the option of this field in TableBar to have all from TableFoo and I’ll be good”. Turns out that the methods to do this

I have a script that has been in production for months and just recently the script is failing on the selectRecordsAsync() function… let config = input.config(); let tbl = base.getTable('Status'); let qry = await tbl.selectRecordsAsync(); for (let rs of qry.records.filter(id => id.getCellValue('Status ID') === config['Status ID'])) { <snip> break; } In the text editor the function selectRecordsAsync() the text is formatted as strikeout and I’m seeing this error message… ERROR TypeError: Cannot read property '0' of null at <anonymous> on line 4 at main on line 4 Can anyone shed some light on what’s going on?

Hi, everyone! I’m sure this has a simple answer, but as a non-developer - I could use some help! I currently have a few webhooks for Zapier and Integromat programmed into button fields in my base. Their function is working just fine; however, each time the webhook is sent, I get a success message in a new window. I appreciate the confirmation, but when I am processing hundreds of records in one sitting, this becomes extremely annoying. Is there any way to get my webhook to run without the success message? Or any recommendations for alternate solutions? I know it’s possible to have a button or an automation run a script, but I don’t know how to create a script to send a webhook. Thanks in advance! :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi everyone, I’m looking to create a Field where I can mark tasks as either “Complete”, “In progress”, or “Not started” based on the Percent Complete I have manually entered in another field. I’m using this formula, and it’s working for everything except Complete: IF({Progress} = 100, “Complete”, IF({Progress} = 0,“Not started”, “In process”)) I’m also including a screenshot. What am I doing wrong? Thanks! Mica

Hi, How can I add formula which autoadds date field to be +1 day to date field in previous record? I am working on content publishing base and want to automate publishing date field. For example: in record 1, my date field is: 10/13/2021 and I need formula which gives date 10/14/2021 in record 2 and 10/15/2021 in record 3. Thanks in advance!

Hi all, I’m getting crypto prices from the Coinmarketcap API and the prices have 12 decimal places E.g. $0.000000007269 However, when I fetch the prices into Airtable, the field [Prices] has precision set to 1.0000000 - 7 places and missing the remaining 5 places. Is there a way to resolve this? Thanks in advance, Paul

Hi there, I adapted the below script by @Justin_Barrett. Everything was working great until I added a few hundred new records to the ‘TaskLog’ table. The script now throws this error: Exceeded quota of 15 mutations per second at main on line 20: let result = await table.selectRecordsAsync() In addition, the run time is now 23.8/30s - also an error for my purposes - as any run time that goes over say 6-seconds will make the script unusable. Can anyone tell me exactly how to edit the script to include batch processing or another solution that will solve the two errors at hand? Ideally, the script should be able to quickly search through thousands of records in the TaskLog table in order to mark the ones that match the Account ID from the first step of the automation (inputConfig.AccountID) Here is the script: // Remove all existing markers (ie make all Task Log records 'current' value null) let TaskLogTbl = base.getTable("TaskLog"); let TaskLogRcds = await TaskLogTbl.selectRecordsAsyn

I have a a Multiple Select Field which I am trying to substitute spaces with hyphens.

I am using LOWER(SUBSTITUTE(Series, " ", “-”)) See screenshot for field details and results. Thanks for the help!! substitute issue|700x237

Hey there, My production team is using one base to handle our production. (supply, suppliers etc) One table in this base is dedicated to our PRODUCTS. We have one column for price (currency type). An other table, in this same base, is dedicated to VARIANTS. It is simply a linked record to a PRODUCT and a size. The price is “looked up” from product, and thus is showing as a currency type on the variant record. On the other side, the SALES team is sync the VARIANTS table from production to another base (SALES) to get a list of all of our product. To create a sale in the LINE ITEMS table, they pick a VARIANT from the synced table in their base. They write a quantity. And obviously the quantity should be multiplied by the VARIANT PRICE to have the line price. My problem : in the synced table (in SALES base), the price is shown as a TEXT. (“€60.00” for instance) And I cannot manage to make the formula work. I tryed VALUE({price})*quantity but it says #ERROR! It seems like sync records con

Hello, I’m originally a programmer but I’m completely new to Airtable and the script syntax. Basically, I have a PHP file somewhere in my server that makes a GET request to Twitch and gets the follower count of any channel. Now, I have in Airtable a list of Twitch users, with their username. What I want do to is to pass the username to my URL so that the PHP script in my server does the rest, and, posts a simple ECHO with the number of followers. Then I’ll just grab the number to update my field. A bit more graphically: Grab the ‘username’ field from my table ‘table’. Append it to my external URL, i.e. “https://mycoolphpscript.com?user=username” Launch the query, fetch the output, which is just a PHP echo with just a number as output, i.e. “458” (followers) - actually if you paste the URL in your browser you’d also get “458” since there’s just a PHP echo in the background. Update my ‘followers’ field with the result. I know how to do 1, 2 and 4, but I have no idea how to do number 3.

Thank you for helping in advance. I want to create a formula or an automation that automatically sets the “Business Due Date” 16 weeks after the “Onboarding Call Date” whenever a record is entered in “Onboarding Call Date”. I don’t know if there is a formula for this or an automation. Any advice will be helpful.

Hello! I’m trying to set up a Gantt view for our team. The tasks are primary deliveries which last less than a day, and in the view the task is a block that spans the entirety of the day. Not sure if this can be changed to specific slots to show the portion of the day! Added context: my start and end dates are computed (formula) fields. Screenshots of the view and the formulas are below. Thanks in advance :))

Hello! I am new to Airtable and working on setting up inventory for my organization. We have raw materials that are used in different quantities and combinations in different craft kits which correspond to different books. Multiple materials may be in a kit and the number of each material will be different for each kit as well. Some kits go to two or more books. I currently have a table for book titles, craft kits, and raw materials. I have them linked to each other so that for example, the craft kit “daisy crown” has a field that lists the raw materials needed (white paper, green paper, etc) BUT I’m struggling to figure out how to add the calculation for the number of each material for that craft. A daisy crown requires two sheets of green construction paper whereas other crafts require a different amount. I’d like to link the quantities for each craft so that I can project what I will run out of based on how many kits of each craft I’m making coming up. If anyone has any solutions or

Hi, I have changed the field type of some columns from “Attachment” to “Long text”. However, now I need to go back to the old format without losing the data. If I try to do so, the content of the columns is not converted and it is lost. So is there a way to convert columns from “Long Text” to “Attachment” type ? Thank you for your help, Damien ROCHE

Hi Everyone, I’ve come across an issue where I can’t seem to get the date to print the correct time within a formula. Please see example, I’ve stripped it down ot its bare bones. On the left is a date (and the time is correct). On the right is that date reprinted as a function. It appears to be an hour off. This is the formula for the function (simply reprinting the date): It also gives the same result (incorrect) if I set the time to my time zone, which is GMT. Any help appreciated

Hello, I´m using this code to get my csv file, parse and import to table: let csvFile = await input.fileAsync( ‘Pick a CSV file to upload’, {allowedFileTypes: [’.csv’], hasHeaderRow: true} ); What I am not figuring it out is how to make that is always the same file, without me needing to choose one - without input. If anyone knows how to, I would really appreciate.

Hi! New to Airtables. I have a table with each row containing a variable number of tags (see image). I’d like to count the overall number of tags, so I can see Dog: 2 Cat: 2 Is there a way to do this?

Hi, I’ve spent hours on this and I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. Here’s what I’d like to accomplish: Each row in the table is a person (a child in daycare) I want to automate a way to change the location of their daycare on a certain date I have these columns: Current Location (multi-select) Change Date (date) New Location (multi-select containing the same values as Current Location) I’m trying to set up the automation so that on Change Date it will update Current Location to match the value in New Location, but it isn’t working and I haven’t been able to figure out why. I get a “received invalid inputs” message. Any help is much appreciated!

Context I’ve made an Airtable script to get some info automatically calling an API after populating a single field. Everything is cool besides the fact that one of the fields it’s a linked field to another table. In this case, I would first have to create a new record in the other table and then link it (via the record id) to the table in the first “main” table. Problem I’d like to understand if there’s a way to get back the ID of a newly created record to link the record in the main one. I could read the values in the whole table after creation, filter them and get the ID of the created field. Tho it seems very inefficient since I’d have to read the whole thing just for a single value. I’ve read through the docs but I couldn’t find anything about this use case. Is there a more elegant way that I’m missing? Thanks

Hi! I’m trying to display ‘Yes’ on records that fall between Monday and Sunday of the Previous week, no matter what day of the week it currently is. My code works, but only if it you’re looking at it on the Monday of this week, otherwise it’s off. IF( AND( IS_AFTER( {Completed Date}, DATEADD(TODAY(),-8,'days')), IS_BEFORE( {Completed Date}, DATEADD(TODAY(),-0,'days') ) ), 'Yes','No' ) I’ve also tried this, but again it has to be run on the Monday of the current week to be accurate… IF( AND( IS_AFTER( {Completed Date}, DATEADD(TODAY(), -8*(WEEKDAY(TODAY(), 'Monday')+1),'day') ), IS_BEFORE( {Completed Date}, DATEADD(TODAY(), 0-WEEKDAY(TODAY(), 'Monday'),'day') ) ), 'Yes','No' ) I Hope someone can help me out :slightly_smiling_face:

Hello! I’m able to make this formula work but I keep getting errors when I try to insert ‘WORKDAY’ into it: IF({Original Release Date}, DATEADD({Original Release Date}, VALUE(’’ & {Days Needed Before Release}), ‘days’, ‘’)) I am trying to return the closest workday after subtracting a formulated number of days from my original release date.
