Hello, I see that there is a rate limitation on querying Airtable records. But is there a limitation on Airtable attachment links? I am building a table (and form) where users can upload multiple files for one entry. Later I would need to download these images off Airtable to a local DB. When downloading the CSV from Airtable, the attachments appear as links from Airtable. Would like to know if there is any specific rate limit on hitting these URLs. Thanks!

I have multiple affiliate links and descriptions that i would like to separate from their linked record. I’d like to have D1 (Description 1) and L1 (Affiliate Link 1) to be CONCATENATE(D1, L1) However, with the lookup field pulling in the affiliate descriptions and links, they are all listed as D1, D2, D3, etc. & L1, L2, L3, etc. How can i separate them from that list and pull them into another field for other use? While maintaining a correlation between D1 and L1 and D2 & L2, etc.

I’m trying to calculate a formula using the if function but not sure where to start. My formula correctly calculates the wholesale cost of a case of 12 bottles of imported wine from the ex cellar price. However, still wines under 14.10% Alc are taxed at 25% of the value (ex cellar x 1.25), still wines 14.1% and higher are not taxed, and to make things even more exciting, sparkling wines are never taxed. I want to make one formula that incorporates whether the wine is taxed or not. can anyone help? in my formula: ex cellar = price of 1 bottle of wine in EUR, 1.15 = est exchange rate 1 EUR= USD, 12 = number of bottles in a case, 18 = cost of shipping in USD to import the wine, 0.6 = target 40% margin on final price. everything works fine, just not sure how to incorporate the tariff on some wines but not others.

From what I understand Airtable advocates using as few tables as possible. I have also come to love the working with grouped and filtered fields in Airtable. Potentially this could make it easy to filter out empty records and use one table like a catchall that could be used for multiple purposes by grouping and filtering. But from my limited knowledge about databases and spreadsheets, I have the impression that you always should avoid empty anything. Is the best practice to avoid this in Airtable as well?

Is there any way to have a hierarchical structure in the organizational chart block that is more than 3 rows deep? I am building a family tree and I’d rather the org chart continue to build vertically instead of horizontally, but it seems to continuously lay out horizontally which is making some of the connections confusing to read.

Like the calendar view but if you introduce Gantt you could take Smartsheet out of the market :slightly_smiling_face: until then they have an edge over you!!! As an interim to full Gantt view could you show tasks with a start and end date as a span e.g. multi days rather than start date only?

Hi @all, I am trying to move everything that has the “finished” checkbox checked to another table. Is this possible? I am using integromat’s automation system. here is what I’ve tried:

I want to generate HTML code for a link so I can merge a URL into an email. So I need something like: “<a href=” &""" & {Article URL}& “”" & “>article” But this doesn’t work. Is there a way to ensure that the formula can produce a "?

I’m trying to figure this out and can’t for the life of me. Basically, this was a template in the AirTable Universe and when it’s a meal from leftovers I want it to say not just “Leftovers”, but which leftovers: ie “Leftovers (Beef Tacos)”. But I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do it. Here’s the formula that is currently in the table: I tried to do nesting IF statements and could not get it to work. I saw on a different post here that some people have conditional roll up fields, but I don’t seem to have that option (there’s no toggle on my roll up options to add conditions). Help is appreciated.

I would like to have a field in my table that shows the URL for each of the records so that this can easily be added to an email in a mail merge. I realize that I can copy the URL for any record and then paste it into the URL field that has been to the table, but there must be a simple way to just display the record URL. Thanks, Mike Morse

When adding/ editing information in a linked record, a lot of unnecessary details are displayed, which are confusing. Can I “simplify” the view by just displaying the main field value, but not all the additional fields? I only want the field value (in large letters), but not all the related values (i.e. in the image, I want to hide all the information in the red boxes). How can I do it?

Hi all! I’m trying to read from two tables using useRecords which have a limited number of fields to create a stateful content variable which I have to pass on to the next react Component. Here’s my code const { translator, compId } = props; // Block viewport const viewport = useViewport(); const [editorVisible, setEditorVisible] = useState(false); const [content, setContent] = useState(demoContent[0].content); // Block settings button useSettingsButton(function () { if (viewport.isFullscreen) { setEditorVisible(!editorVisible); } else { viewport.enterFullscreenIfPossible(); setEditorVisible(true); } }); // read the current tables and translate the content to // 'content' object const contentTable = base.getTableByName("Content"); const detailsTable = base.getTableByName("Details"); const contents = useRecords(contentTable); const details = useRecords(detailsTable); const relevantDetail = details[0]; const myContent = conten

I have a table with columns like: Name (Single Line Text) | Partner (Link to "Name") ----------------------- | -------------------------- John Doe | `Jane Doe` Jane Doe | (Empty) Bob Smith | `Mary Smith` `Kevin Smith` Mary Smith | (Empty) Kevin Smith | (Empty) Alan Stephens | (Empty) I’d like to create a new view for this table with filtering like: WHERE {Partner (field)} is not empty OR {Partner (column)} does not contain {Name} such that the result would be: Name (Single Line Text) | Partner (Link to "Name") ----------------------- | -------------------------- John Doe | `Jane Doe` Bob Smith | `Mary Smith` `Kevin Smith` Alan Stephens | (Empty) The challenge here is that on line 1 of my filter, I’m looking for “records with no records linked in their Partner column”, but on line 2 I’m looking for “records which are not found in the Partner column for any other recor

Hi, I think I’ve figured out how to retrieve a unique record in my table using the following filter, but how can I get the ID of resulting query? let filteredRecords = query.records.filter(record => { let name = record.getCellValue('Order/Shipment ID'); return name !== null && name === range }); I’ve tried the following but am getting an error let filteredRecordsResult = filteredRecords.records[0]; output.text(filteredRecordsResult.id); Error: TypeError: Cannot read property ‘0’ of undefined

I have tables “customers” “orders” and “products” Products has a multiple choice for product type. Orders is linked to the customer and the product with a date. I am looking for a solution to find the last time a product was ordered by a client in an overview/ filter/ group. Example: Product Type A “customer” “product name” “order id” “order date” “customer” “product name” “order id” “order date” Product Type B “customer” “product name” “order id” “order date” I would love to hear some ideas or if you know anywhere else in the form where it is discussed. Thanks in advance BH

Hello, I’m attempting to use airable to manage a tag filtering system that feeds into a 3rd party database for my job. Problem is that multiple select tags seem to add an arbitrary space when converted to a string. This effectively eliminates its usefulness as our system cannot parse it. Example: Is there any easy way to get around this? Perhaps an extra formula step to remove the space after each comma? Thank you in advance!

Hi, I am a little confused with exactly how to write an IF statement that checks that all three of the following conditions are true: {Status} = “” {Replacement Required} = “Yes” IF(NOW() > WORKDAY({Date Created},2) I have the first two worked out, but when I try to add the third condition I am struggling to get it to work.

Using Devonthink 3 Pro, I can capture text from whatever source (eg websites, etc). then use a keyboard shortcut of my own making via Word Service, to reformat - stripping out all links, line endings, headings, bold, etc etc. What I’d like to do is copy and paste direct into a long text field in AT and have the field reformat it? Is that possible, and if so would I need to use a formula or script and if so what would the formula be and how would I go about it? tia
