Solved

I need to find a way of creating multiple views of all data from a table. Ideally I would like to create a table and duplicate the table in a way that if I edit the data on either of the tables it will auto update on the other table and I can set up different views and filters for each of the linked tables. I may want to show all tasks for one team member on one table and all tasks for part of the project on another table but be referencing the same data on each of the table veiws. The columns would be the same on each table, better still if you edit the column properties on one column it will update on the other. Any help with this would be much appreciated.

The code below successfully display records. Please how do I add pagination to it. Thanks const base = useBase(); const table = base.getTableByNameIfExists('myfirst_table'); // grab all the records from that table const records = useRecords(table); // render a list of records: return ( <ul> {records.map(record => { return <li key={record.id}>{record.id} -- {record.getCellValueAsString('lastname')}</li> })} </ul> );

I’ve been trying but it seems like it’s not possible.

i can see and press the copy button for the examples where is the paste button and where do you paste what you have copied???

Is there any way for a “Link” field to share the filter properties of a “multiple select” field? For example, when filtering a multiple select field, I have many options (e.g., has any of, has all of…) and I can toggle the selected options on/off. Seen in these 2 screenshots: However, when filtering a linked field, I have limited options and I have to type in the exact thing I’m looking for. Seen here: Is there anyway to get the link field to act like a multiple select field? I don’t suspect there is. But wondering what the roadblock is to making this happen. Can that be programmed? My current solution is suboptimal. Every so often I copy the multiple select field column and paste it into a column designated as a linked field. It works but require a lot of ongoing maintenance and if I change the name in one place, I have to remember to change it in the other field. It’s a hassle. I would love a way to allow Link fields filterable similar to multiple select fields. Any advice

Hi, maybe I its to obvious and I don’t get it - but how can I work with the outcome of a formula field? Every time I build formulas with which I want to “work further” with the outcome of another formula field there is no output (blank). Any idea how to make that possible? Thanks in advance Onur

I’m sharing a view of a table to a client, however, when I update the table, their view isn’t updated unless they refresh the tab. This makes it completely useless for me. I would add them as a collaborator but that would give them access to hidden data that I need to keep protected. Is there a setting or work-around for this? Thank you in advance

Hi, how to use a XOR formula with 3 and 5 arguments (with real world use cases)? I’m trying to understand how i can apply this in real life

I would like to be able to automatically import contacts with the status “closed-won” into a sales tracking table. Example: I have a travel agency, so when a prospect goes into “closed-won” status, I have to do a different follow-up (hotel reservations, excursions, etc). I’d like the contact to be automatically transferred to the customer follow-up file when it is in the prospect file. I’m a novice on the platform, thank you very much for your help. Beautiful day.

Hi all, I may be missing something in which case apols! I have two fields: an integer field and checkbox field. I wish to set the checkbox field if the integer field is >x. I can see how to simulate this using a formula field formatted as text and a ‘tick emoji’, but this doesn’t work for me as I need to link my base to an external system that uses airtable checkbox fields to construct filters. Alternatively, would be nice to flag a feature request for the formatting option ‘Checkbox’ for formula fields where the output is boolean.

Is there a way at present to debug a custom block on my local while building it? It would be great if I can such debug error like these with better and more helpful build time error messages.

Hello. I am really new to the Airtable API and for some reason connecting the API this way did not work- at = airtable.Airtable('Base_Key', 'Airtable_Key') But I got it working this way - get_url = ‘https://api.airtable.com/v0/BASE_ID/TABLE_NAME’ get_headers = { ‘Authorization’: ‘Bearer API_KEY’ } Response = requests.get(get_url, headers=get_headers) Response_Table = Response.json() However, this fetches only the first 100 records and am reading about offset and pagination but I am unable to figure how to incorporate it into this code. Thank you for the time!

I’m looking to use Airtable as a full project management solution for my company. But one of the requirements is that projects must adhere to a certain project numbering convention: XXXX-0000-X XXXX is a 4-letter code, specific to each of our clients (1000+) 0000 is a 4-digit number, which auto-increments starting at 0001 for each client (not globally, each client counts up) X is one letter, based on the project type Our current system generates this number automatically upon entering a new project. Let’s say that my client’s name is ABC Tool Company. They already have 96 projects in our system. I’m going to enter a graphic design job for them. The client’s unique client code is ABCT. The next project number would be 0097. The suffix for a graphic design project is G. All I have to enter on my project request form is the client’s name and the project type, and the system would automatically generate this code: ABCT-0097-G I’ve searched everywhere to figure out how to get Airtabl

We are an architectural and general contracting firm who is trying to set up an CRM base design using the different ‘Divisions’ (Electrical, Site, Roofing, Doors, etc.) used in building and construction. There are about 31 or so of them that we use and we would like to organize our Airtable so that each subcontractor is below the correct header (a roofer under roofing). CSI Standards What is the best way to set that up?

I’m importing a google spreadsheet of workers and their trades. The sheet has over 11,000 rows (each worker = 1 row). There are 40 trades. Each trade has its own column, and there is an “X” if the worker is skilled in that trade. I converted each “X” into the name of the trade that it represents. I now want to combine all of the columns for each worker into 1 multiple select field so that each worker has one field where it lists all of his/her trades. Any ideas?

I will want to possibly create several different lists so that they can be choices for different drop down fields. Thank you.

I am creating a Master Calendar & Team Calendar system in Airtable, where each calendar update automatically updates/creates based on an update in the other calendar. I put together a system that created a “Unique Event ID”, which is a shared ID for the same event across both Bases. Everything is working great so far, except that I would like to delete records automatically in one Base if the corresponding record is not found in the other. There’s no Delete trigger in Integromat, so my workaround is: -The trigger is an existing “Update Record” automation After that automation completes, the automation will do a scan on both Airtable Bases. Step 1: Search all existing records on Master Calendar Base (up to 10,000) Step 2: Search all existing records on Team Calendar (up to 10,000) Step 3: Filter, then Delete - If the Event ID is found on the Master Calendar Version but does not exist on the Team Calendar Version, Delete the record on the Team Calendar (up to 10,000) I’ve tried a f

I swear this must be really easy, in fact in excel it’s really easy what am I doing wrong :frowning: I have one sheet on there I have a variety of columns I want to create a column at the end that says how many out of columns xyz (which are all single line text columns) contain text - please can anyone help as 4 hours later a rabbit hole of videos and posts on here I still cannot get it to do anything - thank you in advance

Is there any way to create a read-only table view that can be accessed anonymously via the API? I just want to be able to do a simple table lookup/mapping (with a filter formula) with a front-end Javascript call without exposing an API key (or having to host a back-end script on a 3rd-party server). Alternatively, is it reasonable to create a “collaborator” account with read-only access and expose that account’s API key?

I have recently configured the Map block on a few tables with a total of couple of hundred rows between them. A few days later I checked my Google Developers console to see how my geocoding API key was faring, and I was shocked to see ~18,000 requests for that key. If I open a Map block and the associated table simultaneously, I can see the geocoding cache column get updated repeatedly as I interact with the map — even though no data in those rows is changing. The gif below shows cell updates being triggered just while viewing/panning/zooming the map… Then, if I open up one of records in question, I can see a bunch of changelog entries of the form: “User X edited this record using Map block Y”… Can anyone explain what’s going on here? I’d like to keep using the Map block, but not if it’s going to blow up my API quotas simply by viewing the maps :frowning:

What am I doing wrong? How do I as the owner, make it so multiple users (<10) are able to view/update the database at the same time?

This may be outright impossible based on how Airtable is designed to be purely dynamic however, I would love to know if anyone has any solutions. Here’s the Problem: I am using Airtable as a Series Bible for my Fantasy Book series. It is a massive world with many plots and subplots, characters, themes etc. As I am writing the scenes and beats, I’m noticing Airtable is not persistent with the sorting of its records. In other words, I set up a series of scenes, then I filter and sort. When I remove the filter and sort, the scenes are no longer in the order they were created. This is maddening, effectively removing the usefulness of Airtable due to it resorting all records. Furthermore, I am aware of ‘Autonumbering’, however this isn’t much use when you decide to re-organize scenes or add a scene in between two existing scenes. The numbering immediately becomes irrelevant. How can I maintain the order of my scenes and still use sorting, but rest knowing it will be restored to the default

Use SendGrid block to contact our members, great! But is it possible to schedule the start of sending? Met vriendelijke groeten, Geert Dornez

Hello, I am trying to gather information from my colleges on how they do specific tasks through out our building (some departments have the same tasks but are done differently, we are trying to accumulate all the data and compare). I have a grid view of all the tasks from all departments, but I am having trouble finding a way to track which department answers which questions and making sure that when a department does answer, the question can not be asked again (I do not want duplicate data if someone forgets that they already answered a previous question). Is there a conditional format I can use to accomplish this or will I need to find an external form builder? Thank you.

Hello everyone - Does anyone know how to send an email notification when an editable field within a record changes? I looked at Zapier and the only triggers are New Record or New Record In View. We have several scenarios where people want to be notified via email (not currently collaborators) when information changes. Many thanks for your insights and advice. Doug
