Hi! I have a field in Table A that links to another field in Table B. How do I prevent a linked record in Table B from getting deleted? Shouldn’t I at least get a warning? Thank you!

Hello, I am using this formula to display a red circle if a character count is over 310, or a green check if its not. I would like to add another condition but cannot get the syntax right, any help? I would like to add a 3rd condition, so if it is over 260 but under 310 it has a third symbol… LEN({Description}) & " " & IF(LEN({Description})>310, “ :o: ”, “ :white_check_mark: ”) Thanks!

Hello. I am trying to sync Airtable with Google Calendar. In the form of “Add” the URL of Airtable’s “Calendar view” to Google Calendar. However, there was one minor problem. Airtable’s “Date” field now selects Date format and Time format, no more options. However, it would be better if there is a “predefined” time slot for Time when actually entering Airtable’s Date. (For example, 10:00/14:00/19:00 or 10:00-13:00/14:00-17:00/19:00-22:00) Creating a “predefined” time slot like this is " Single Select Field", but this field cannot be used in Calendar View. Of course, I know that it is possible by using an automation tool such as Zapier or Integromat, but as much as possible, I try to subscribe the URL of Airtable’s “Calendar” as it is to Google Calendar. In short, is there any way to use predefined time slots in “Date Field”? Or is there any way to use “non-date” field in “Calendar view”?

Hi, I have two linked record columns. Our users use a custom app to link records to these columns.,I don’t want the users to link records directly from the columns but instead use the app. since we cannot restrict permissions to a column, is there a way to open the app when someone makes changes to a column? I am thinking an Automation when the record is updated and open the app from Autmation? Thanks in advance

Hi everyone! In a client’s base, they have a form where applicants essentially fill out a job application. Applicants upload their resume, and then I have an automation set up that pushes their demographic information into a “Contacts” table and the job-specific information, including their resume, into an “Applications” table. This works perfectly about 90% of the time. Seemingly randomly, some resumes aren’t appearing in the Applications table. When I look at the record history, I see this: Why would the automation add the resume only to immediately delete it? Has anyone run into this before?

Hello, I am trying to write an equation for total pallets used. If the total cartons is over 4it gets palletized. My equation is IF(Cartons > 4, ROUNDUP(Cartons/{Cartons per Pallet}), 0). but Airtable wont accept it. Any advice?

Trying to create a formula that adds x number of business days if priority is x. This is what I have so far: IF(Priority=“High”,WORKDAY({Writer Assignment Date},3, IF(Priority=“Normal”,WORKDAY({Writer Assignment Date},5, IF(Priority=“Low”,WORKDAY({Writer Assignment Date},10)))))) It accepts this formula, but populates with an “#ERROR” in some fields and blank in others. All fields have the required selections. Trying to create a due date field that is customized by priority. If it is high priority for instance, the person would need to complete the assignment within 3 business days by that date.

So I have a table with a field Client that references a record from another table. Client column as such can contain a value such as ['rec1234abc']. Now I want to do a filter to return all records that reference a specific record. I tried this (using the Python client): my_table.get_all(formula="ARRAYJOIN(Client, '')='rec1234abc'") But that returns me no results. How can I accomplish this?

In Automation “Find Records”, only 100 records get found for the subsequent action. What are the work arounds for updating more than 100 records?

The Vision App requires an API Key. The API Key is visible to all collaborators. Google specifies that API Keys should not be exposed in code, as this is a security problem. I attempted to “restrict” the API so that I could at least limit usage to airtable / vision. But I got an error related to OAuth. Am I misunderstanding something about the potential security implications? Why would this app be designed to keep the API exposed? Thanks for any advice!

Hi, any idea why is Vega-lite displaying the last month July 1 2022 of my table as the first month in my Chart, even before June 1 2021 ?!! this happen with whatever Date I start the table on.

Hello I have converted an Excel spreadsheet into an Airtable base. In excel, I have columns that are formatted to show [month] & [weeknum] based on a date that is entered. Is this possible in Airtable? Kind regards, Sally

I have a table containing a PostCode column, and Address columns 1 to 6, all of type “single line text”. I wish to know which of the columns contains the PostCode and will use SWITCH(PostCode,Address1,1,Address2,2 …). However even when I can see which column contains the PostCode, let’s say Address3, a formula of PostCode = Address3 is returning false, when it should be true as they appear equal. Adding LEN() to both sides of the formula confirms they are the same expected length. The values I see in both columns appear identical. This behaviour is not the same in a table created with just these 2 columns and the values manually input. What differences in the values could there be that is not visible and how might the difference be eliminated?

I have a formula that’s doing what I want it to do. But I’d like the field {ACTUAL VALUE} to be currency formatted like {EST. VALUE} - I’d also like to get a SUM at the bottom of this column, so I need it to be a number. This is what I have so far. IF(STAGE="Executed", {EST. VALUE},"") What do I need to add? Thank you so much in advance.

Hi - please help, bit confused. I published a base up into the Airtable Universe (and luckily saved the link for it). If I search the Airtable Universe, I can’t find it anywhere. Any idea what’s going on? It’s a LinkedIn SSI Tracker (your Social Selling Index score on LinkedIn). The Universe base can be found here - but you cannot find / search for it via the Airtable Universe page. Any ideas? I’m presuming that nobody else can find / search for this? Here’s the direct link (to prove I’m not going mad :slightly_smiling_face: ). Airtable LinkedIn SSI tracker (Social Selling Index) - Airtable Universe Did you know that LinkedIn gives you a 'score' that determines how popular and visible you are on LinkedIn? It's called the Social Selling Index (SSI). If... It is real… but not searchable…

Hey, guys! I’m trying to add a column that return to me a specific message when attends some date criteria. Actually, I did the formula and it was working well: IF(AND(DAY({Final date})=DAY({Request date}),MONTH({Final date})=MONTH({Request date}),YEAR({Final date})=YEAR({Request date})),“ :warning: Warning”, IF({Final date}<{Request date},“ :red_circle: Wrong”,“ :white_check_mark: Right”)) But after some tests I noticed that something weird was happening How you can see, the first and the second line returned strange results… Is there something wrong with the formula? Thanks!

I have a base to keep track of the FESTIVAL PARTICIPATION of each of our FILMS. In table 1, I record the participation of each FILM on different festivals (which I pull from a FESTIVAL DB in table 2). This means that on table 1, on the first field {FILMS} film1, film2, film3 are recurrent values, appearing in as many records, as festivals where they get invited. In table 1, I include a text field named {SOCIAL MEDIA} where I include the film’s social media related profiles and hashtags. I do that on the first occurrence of each film on a record. MY PROBLEM: I can’t figure out a way to either LOOKUP, ROLLUP, or find a FORMULA to reproduce the info I entered in {SOCIAL MEDIA} for a particular FILM X in a record to another record in the same table where FILM X appears. In my mind is like making an intra-table “related field” but I cannot figure out how to do it.! I made the image below to better explain what I need, in case I did not expressed myself clearly. airtable-1|700x268

I am attempting to create a simple script which will count the number of entries in a linked lookup field. My plan was to invoke .selectRecordAsync() on the table of interest to pull the records and count the number of entries for a given record in that field. I’ve run into an issue early on with this script: the selectRecordAsync call appears to only be returning the name field and Id for the records, but no other data. My code is below. let vendorTable=base.getTable("Vendors"); let quoteField=base.getTable("Vendors").getField("Quoted Parts") let records= await vendorTable.selectRecordsAsync() console.log(quoteField) console.log(records) let exampleValue=records[0].getCellValue(quoteField) console.log(exampleValue) I’m getting the following responses in the console. My table is structured as follows: The only issue I can think of off hand is that all of the fields (aside from name) are linked or lookup values. What am I missing here?

I have a base with a table full of tags that is used to tag different items along different dimensions. Each item can be tagged in alot of differnt categories. I’m trying to use airtable in conjunction with Bubble.io and it seems I’ll make life easier for myself if I rename the linked fields back in my tag table to something more meaningful rather than tablename 1, tablename 2, tablename 3… Is there a quick way to see what these field corresponds to, so I don’t have to toggle between tables and try to match up which tags are present where?

Hi, everyone. I’m wondering if there’s a way for me to adjust the date and time in the following format: [MM/DD/YYYY XX:XXpm] for Slack and Email. I can’t seem to do that in the automation box. Would I need to insert a formula or some other solution? Thanks.

I am trying uploading an image from webflow form to airtable using zapier. All the form data like name, email, etc are getting added to the table when I submit the form except for the attached image. The image column (Attachment) is always empty. So I tried manually add the image using the Link (URL) option and kept getting following error: “Error fetching URL metadata.” Following is the image URL generated by webflow: https://webflow.com/api/sites/3d-jobs-project/formUploads/8070822d-b223-4bfe-9d61-eab61d069dc4.png Any idea how to fix this?

Dear airtable community, i am looking for a function that: if a certain cell is modified, i get a value in a ‘last modified time’ field. after getting that, i want to know the work day difference between my ‘last modified time’ field and a ‘order date’ field. if the mentioned cell at first hasn’t been modified yet, i won’t get an return for the ‘last modified time’ field and so i want to have a blanc for the difference in work days. the function i was able to set up for now is: IF({found at},WORKDAY_DIFF({order date},{found at}, BLANK()) i’m aware of the fact that the point of formulating the conditon, isn’t fullfilled, but i have no idea what else to put there. if there’s an easier way of fullfilling my need than the if function, please. let me know :slightly_smiling_face: as always thanks in advance and stay safe guys
