Hi all. I’d like an automation so when two columns show specific criteria (e.g. KNOWN CLIENT and PRODUCTS) this creates an entry in a third column with “PRODUCTS NEWSLETTER”. I’d then like a further column showing when “PRODUCTS NEWSLETTER” was added (i.e. last modified). I need this as it’ll run a Zapier automation and input the customer data into Mailchimp. I had successfully created an AND formula but this didn’t seem to link to a ‘last modified’. I’m trying automation but I don’t understand the steps. Can anyone help? Thanks so much.

Hey everyone, Is it possible to move a record from one base to another with an automation? My organization organized projects in their own bases and each task gets assigned an owner. Ideally, I would like to be able to use an automation that is triggered by a task/owner assignment and places the task in the owner’s own base in order to create a “to-do list” of tasks aggregated from different project bases. Thanks in advance for your reply!

I’m trying to update a base every 24 hours hitting a public API using remoteFetchAsync(). When I run the automation code below, I get this error: ERROR ReferenceError: remoteFetchAsync is not defined at on line 24 at main on line 9 The automation: //output.markdown ("# Updating BTC price"); let table = base.getTable ("Fetch"), records = await table.selectRecordsAsync (); //Check difficulty await Promise.all ( records.records.map (async record => { let stock = record.getCellValue ("Ticker"); if (! stock) { //output.text ("Can't update the price without Ticker"); return; } //output.text (`Updating Mining Difficulty of ${stock}...`); // make request to BTC.com var response = await remoteFetchAsync ( `https://chain.api.btc.com/v3/block/latest` ).then (r => r.json ()); // Parse by hand var data= response.data; var diff= data.difficulty;

Dear ones, I need help. I’m using a filter on another system that searches the result based on a certain date. If I inform the filter as follows. Date = “2021-06-25”, The expectation is that I would return all the rows that appear on this date, however filtering this way I have no return. If I use the Date filter >=“2021-06-25”. it works, but it brings me back not only the lines corresponding to that date but all the other dates ahead.

Hi folks I have two tables: One is called “Products” the other is called “Product Components”. As you can imagine there is a (1:N) link between them, so a Product can have multiple Components. A Component has a single Product. Here is what I am trying to do: I need to fetch all Components for a Product. I have a RecordQueryResults called “allComponents”. product.id contains the Product I’m searching for. Here is my code: let components = allComponents.records.filter(record => { (record.getCellValue(“Product”).map(x => x.id).includes(product.id)) }); After this, if I check components.length I will get zero. It is an empty array. I tried debugging using console.log inside my filter callback: let components = allComponents.records.filter(record => { console.log(record.getCellValue(“Product”).map(x => x.id).includes(product.id)); (record.getCellValue(“Product”).map(x => x.id).includes(product.id)) }); The results are: whenever a Product matches product.id I get TRUE; when it

Hi all. I have a base with 12 tables. I would like to create a table which will list links to all the other tables in the base, to ease navigation. I can get the View link but that opens up in a browser. Is there a way to create a link to a table that then goes to the referenced table within the desktop app? Thanks in advance. Shaun

I’m trying to send an reminder to email a record to a Slack channel when a Reminder Date is 14 days prior to current date. I’d like the Slack message to automatically populate the record’s name and email but I can’t see to get this to work.

I have a field named Echeance that has date of the deadline for each project I have a field named Statut which referres to the project status (to do, done etc…) I want if the current date > Echeance and the status is “A faire” then update the cell to “En retard”, which means late. let action = base.getTable('Action'); let tache = await action.selectRecordsAsync(); let aujourdhui = new Date(); // Date of today for (let ligne of tache.records){ let statut = ligne.getCellValue("Statut"); let echeance = ligne.getCellValue("Echéance"); let dateEcheance = new Date(echeance); if (dateEcheance < aujourdhui && statut["name"] == "A faire"){ await action.updateRecordAsync(ligne, { 'Statut': "En retard", // Here is the problem }); } }```

I’m still pretty new to Airtable, and I’ve searched for this info to no avail. I’m trying to understand the core reason(s) for using multiple workspaces. In our business, we have multiple clients with very different setups and data. I need to be sure those streams don’t cross. If we can share the bases within the workspace without granting access to everything, is there a reason why I couldn’t use one workspace and build out a base for each client?

I would like to use autofill. I am following this tutorial video. (originally post in this URL) How to create a running total or balance Apps Hey, I got the same question from my client, so I created a video tutorial: How to show a Running total on Airtable? (6:40 min) Here is the link to the base used in the tutorial. Hope it helps! Noam [Thumbnail-Running-Total] time 4:23, pop up window shows “PERFORM PASTE”, Unfortunately, in my case, there are no pop up massage. How can I use this autofill command?

Hey, can anyone tell me if features available to upgraded users (Plus, Pro, etc.) will be visible to non-upgraded users in a certain workspace? For example, If a certain base contains Gantt charts, a pro feature, will a “free” user who the base is shared with be able to see or interact with the gantt chart? Thank you in advance for your help!

Hello everyone, Tinkering with my garden automations and I have seasons on my mind. There’s a couple of items I’m working on and thinking about, and figured I may as well post my questions here to help advance my Airtable skills. Firstly, spending time with a Switch statement, is it possible to stack cases? For example; SWITCH(Month{Date} ,1,"Summer" ,2,"Autumn" ,3,'Autumn' ,4,'Autumn' ,5,'Winter' ,6,'Winter' ,7,'Winter' ,8,'Spring' ,9,'Spring' ,10,'Spring' ,11,'Summer' ,12,'Summer') SWITCH(Month{Date} ,[1,2,12],"Summer" ,[3,4,5],"Autumn" ,[6,7,8],'Winter' ,[9,10,11],'Spring') And what are peoples thoughts on having rolling seasons within a recurring calendar? Not too sure about this one though, trying to map it out still, so perhaps it’s more of a base design question. :thinking: DATETIME_PARSE(DATETIME_FORMAT({Recurring Date},'MM/DD')&"/"&YEAR(NOW()))

I am looking at to build a system which will allow me to keep track of the walkthrough I do with my teachers as a school principal. I have one tab with all the teachers, one tab with all the standards we are looking at. My goal is when I start a walkthrough would be to: Select the teacher Upload medias Add notes in 3 boxes: description fo the observation, area of strengths, suggestions Rate the selected standards (probably 5 maximum for one walkthrough), and add a note next to the rating What would be the best way to design this ? My issue is on the standard as for ONE ENTRY (one walkthrough for one teacher), I can see how to deal with the medias and the three notes, however I don’t see how I can select the standards I want to rate and rate them. If you have done think kind of design or you know a template that could inspire me, I would love to see it.

I am trying to figure out how to translate the in-airtable-ui filters into a filterByFormula method in the request via fetch. I can’t seem to find any docs and some related questions kind of seem like people are figuring these out somehow so I feel like I’m missing something. For my exact example, I’m trying to replicate "where fieldName contains string" in the Airtable UI. I’ve seen some conflicting opinions between using FIND and SEARCH, but neither have worked for me yet. I’m hoping to find something that outlines those available options, similar to how there examples for CURL (and an unofficial CodePen for generating them)

I’m building a research project library and I’d like to create a multiselect “see also” column at the end of each record where we could select any of the other records (projects) in the base for people to reference. Whenever a new project is added to the library I’d love for that project title (from the title column) to appear as an option in this multiselect list. I’ve seen how to link records from another table, but wondering if something like this is possible within the same table. Thanks!

Hello! Airtable noob here, we are just integrating the software into our company’s workflow. Is there a way to track or view all the times someone has been tagged as a collaborator, across all tables in a base? We currently have one table for projects and a linked table for tasks. I would like to be able to create a view where I can see all the projects AND tasks that I’ve been tagged in. Is this possible? Thanks!

Hello I would like to create a field where when data is imported into AirTable, that it would input the current month as written into a specific cell. like “7/1/2021”, for any entries entered in that month, I want this one cell to enter 7/1/2021, and not update any previously entered rows.

Hi, I currently have my IT-inventory in Airtable. I would like to upgrade this with a kind of lending/borrow system. Where the employee’s can scan a QR code and take the (monitor, keyboard, mouse, etc…) device and I know who took it. And when they afterwards return the device and scan again, it shows in Airtable that it’s returned. Is this possible in Airtable or is there something that already exists?

I’m working on a base that makes some currency calculations and I’ve noticed that when you have an amount that ends in a 0, e.g. £10.50, the zero at the end won’t show up in markdown that I’m using in automations. It will show as £10.5 instead. For any other amount that doesn’t end in a zero, you will get the two decimal places. The same happens whether it’s a formula field, a number field or a currency field. I could probably correct this with something like IF(RIGHT, 2=".", {Number} & “0”), i.e. add a zero when the second from right character is a decimal point, but that seems like an ugly way of doing things. Any advice?

I see a form view to collect data from users. I see a few form-oriented addons, but they are for printing forms. Is there a way to create a form-oriented view of a table where users can update the table and add rows?

Hi all! I’m developing a script that triggers when a new row is added to a table (it makes HTTP call to retrieve more data, and add to the missing columns). I’m currently using “When record is created” as a trigger, and it works well in cases where the entire row is added to the table at the same time through other automations, or copy-paste. My problem is with written inputs. So if a user writes the data manually, the script triggers too soon, before all the columns are filled in, thus with only partial inputs to my HTTP call. What’s the best way to overcome this? Intuitive I thought the trigger would work so that when a user is adding the row, it fires only when the focus goes away from the added row. But obviously not. :slightly_smiling_face: Thanks for the help! Cheers, tommi.

hi dear community, i need help finding the correct formula, but at least i know that the mid and find function have to be included. i want to extract the text between both “-”, so for example “11 US” is visible in the “us size field”. any help is greatly appreciated, if there are any questions regarding my concern, please let me know. kind regards karim and thanks in advance! :slightly_smiling_face:
