Hi, I am new to Airtable and am trying to build a query that will act like a global search across multiple columns. Our members table has the following columns {‘Full Name’,‘Phone’,‘Email’} that I would like to search. I want to have a single search field on our site to look up members by either their Full Name, Phone, or Email. This is the query that I am using, but it doesn’t work, and I have tried many incantations to no avail… record = await table.select({ filterByFormula: OR(‘Full Name’=searchString, ‘Phone’=searchString, ‘Email’=searchString), fields: [‘Member’, ‘Full Name’, ‘Phone’, ‘Email’, ‘Status’, ‘Member Photo’] }).firstPage().then((records) => { rec = records[0][“fields”]; return rec; }).catch((err)=>{ console.error(err) }); The above code works great if I use a simple filterByFormula such as: filterByFormula: 'Member=' + member_id Thanks in advance for any assistance!!

I’ve displayed an airtable created by someone else on this web page migrants-info.eu/jrs-activites-jeunes/ Is there a way to make it automatically show the latest activities ? or even better, center the display on activities closest to the current date ? thanks in advance for your help !

With the below personas in mind… Client: company we’re working with Event: the event we’re doing for them Contributor: an individual (outside of our company or the client’s) who is helping to put on the event I am able to store the following relationships between: Clients and Events. One client can have many events. Contributors and Events. One contributor can have many events. Events and Contributors. One event can have many contributors. However, I also need to be able to store additional information about each Contributor’s performance at each Event (e.g. rating, comments, fee, etc.). I tried to create a fourth table to store the ‘additional’ information about a Contributor’s Event performance with the below columns, but I can’t seem to get one row for each relationship. Instead, I am seeing multiple Campaigns for each Contributor (which is already stored elsewhere). Primary field (auto-numbered; not used) Campaign (link to Campaign table) Contributor (link to Contributor table

OK, hope someone can help here: I have a table names “ProdCo” - companies I’m following: In this table, I have a field named “Owner” - that links to a table - same name - where I put, among other things - email addresses: I now want to target certain companies for a sales initiative. I made a “check box” field in “ProdCo.” table to tag these companies. My question: How can I most efficiently generate a list of these Companies with their owners with their email addresses, I cannot for the life of me figger that out. Thanks in advance for any thoughts, Perry

Hi! I’m trying to use a formula or count to use in my base. I have in a board all the information for each of the employees and in another table I have the departments and I want to add how many women or men I have in each department. How can I count them with a formula?

I have two tables with customer information that I use for CRM. For every customer record in table-1 there needs to be one and only one record with the same customer name in table-2. The tables are linked by the customer name. The primary field in table-2 is a formula that is equal to the name of the customer in table-1. Table-1 structure CUSTOMER NAME FIELD1 FIELD2 (… sensitive data) TO_TABLE-2 (linked field, to one and only one) Table-2 structure CUSTOMER NAME (formula so it is equal to field TO TABLE-1) … data accesible by a third party TO TABLE-1 (linked field, to one and only one customer in Table-1) They are separated in order to give different view/edit permissions to different people. Manually everything works fine. But I create customers on the go in my cell phone and can easily forget to create the corresponding customer in table-2. Is there a way to automatically create and link the customer record in table-2 when a customer is created in table-1? Thanks!

Trying to get the “)” to display after the “X” in COMX (({SchDep} & “-”) & {Dest} & “-”) & {LdTo} & " (" & {SCAC} results in: 2200-KLO-KLO (COMX but (({SchDep} & “-”) & {Dest} & “-”) & {LdTo} & " (" & {SCAC} & “)”) results in a formula error. I’m also unable to display the date from a date field as part of the formula. It ends up looking like 2019-17-26-T00:00:00.000Z Also, is it possible to formulate two linked records {A} and {B} to display in one cell with the above?

Hi there, I am looking to setup an approval queue for our membership service, whereby applications are brought into the “Applicants” base, and when the dropdown selector for “Approval Status” is set to “Approved”, the record is added to our “Members” base, and deleted from Applicants base. Is this doable? Any idea how I could achieve this? Thanks so much! Adam

For creating books, I have 3 main tables - Projects -> Titles -> Tasks When I create a Title, I almost always have 3 “tasks” that need to occur. What is the best way to set up a way to replicate this workflow? without having to cut/paste text and worry that I have a setting or pull-down wrong!!

Hey guys, I am wondering how I would go about importing text from another field like “Diamond Plus” and translating it into “diamond-plus”? Any way to do this without just building a really long IF statement? Thanks so much, Adam

Hey, I’m new to the airtable. In this video, we can see how to apply the auto-fill the data or formula in all fields. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Y-PyB-F4lo What if we can automate this if we have 50+ tables to automate the same process? Is there a way to automate the auto-fill process in every field? This will remove the manually auto-fill the formulas on each table.

Hy Guys, We’re trying to do a formula in order to create a new graph within our dahsboard.

Thanks in advance!

I have a Base with a Table for each week. Every week, I add a new Table with a new set of data for that week. I need a Summary Table that pulls from the same column in each of the weekly Tables. Any suggestions? The less I have to configure each week, the better. Seems like a simple function!? Thanks!

I am have two tables. In table 1, I have: a (non-primary) field with 3 single select options (let’s call it field A) a field linked to records in table 2 (field B) In table 2 , I have: the table’s primary field, from field B in table 1 (field C) a field that counts the number of linked records (field D) I would like to filter the field that counts the number of linked records (field C) in table 2 so it only counts for one of the 3 single select field (field A) in table 1. I looked around the forum, and some answers seemed to deal with the same issue but I could not get any to work for my case.

I am new to Airtable and trying to use lookup to pull first and last names based on an ID number in a table (called log) that will be constantly receiving new records. I have a second table set up with all of the ID numbers, first names, and last names that is linked, and the lookup set for the first and last name fields. However, with the lookup I am only getting the names for the first occurrence of an ID and they are not loading for any new records that are created. I have the settings enabled to allow linking to multiple records. How can I get it so that the first and last name automatically load for all records.

Hi all, I’m currently struggling with a thorny Airtable formula issue. I think I need to be considering using a nested IF statement or a SWITCH formula, but i’m not 100% convinced that either will work. Here’s my problem statement… I need to analyse the outputs of five columns, each of which is populated by a unique, formula-generated text value. Based on different combinations of these text values, I need to display a different summary sentence. I thought that I could solve this issue by using the following nested IF statement… IF({Biz Rules Provided Summary} = “Incomplete”,“Awaiting Business Rules”, IF({Analysis Complete Summary}) = “Analysis Incomplete”, “Awaiting Analysis”, IF({Screen Designed Summary}) = “Design Incomplete”,“Awaiting Screen Design”, IF({Developed Summary}) = “Dev Incomplete”,“Development Incomplete”, IF({Function Configured}) = “Config Incomplete”,“Awaiting Configuration”,“Function Configured”))))) However, this formula doesn’t work. It seems to get stuck after th

I am looking for a way to use the REPLACE() formula function to replace values in a Multi-select column with different values on a new column. For example: The original column contains column Type of question with multi-select values bug-report, enhancement. Can we create a new column called Type of question (new) with the corresponding new values: bug-report-new and enhancement-new?

Hi All, I’m working on a table that has a formula with a checkbox, my problem is while the formula works I want the value to be currency and formatting options are not available. I would be most grateful for any thoughts on how to accomplish this. Thanks in advance

Hi, I cleaned my browser data and now I am missing two bases in one of my workspaces and a whole other workspace. Why? Only one base is left with a tag ‘bases shared with me’. It is MY base. I had important date in there which I need for work! If it has sth to do with my chrome cookies & temp cleaning, then why one base was left intact? I really need help here! Regards, Magda

Hi, I’m working on automating multiple maintenance tasks in my base, but this one got me stuck … I’ve come to realize I need Zapier and a multi-step Zap (find record, then update record etc.), but I have not been able to figure out how to proceed from there. See my example base here: Airtable DeviceCutExample - Airtable Explore the "DeviceCutExample" base on Airtable. My workflow today: When some criterias are met (the PastDueDate?-field is “Yes” and the DeviceUsedBefore-field is empty) the record shows in a view (Projects --> TriggerView). I get a Slack notification, open the view and cut the linked record from DevicesUseNow to DeviceUsedBefore. So, when DueDate is in the past I need the linked record (in the example base; DeviceB) to “move” from the DevicesUseNow-field to the DeviceUsedBefore-field. And that is pretty much what I want to automate. Seems simple to do manually, but other tasks are dependent on this one being done, s

We have an airtable with several hundred records, and we need to print it to a large format wall display. I am attaching a draft of the formatting we are trying for. Our goal is to output a timeline in this format—in columns of 3-5 entries deep. Our goal is also to have the items print with a color coded header block (see example) for each of 4 different categories. Each entry in the finished print has 5 fields—Name, visual, Year, description, and category. Visuals need to print in full- not arbitrarily cropped.

This ought to be really simple but I cannot suss it. I’ve looked at the help files for functions and also for nested if statements and no doubt the answer is in there, but I’m missing it. I have a little to-do base. Task records have two date fields: Do_On and Do_By. A task can have values in one or both or neither of the fields. I’d like to look at the stuff on a calendar so I need a single date field I can map to the calendar. Do_On takes higher priority than Do_By, so in plain English, I’d like a calc that looks something like this: If both Do_On and Do_By are empty, then return Blank() If Do_On is NOT empty, return Do_On If Do_By is NOT empty, return Do_By I’ve tried various things but can’t make it work. For example I’m told this is invalid: If ( Do_On != Blank() ; Do_On ; Blank () ) Of course that’s not all I want but I thought I’d try just that much, but still, no luck. Can’t tell if I’m supposed to format the date result and I’m doing that wrong or if it’s something else. This

Hi How do I convert the web link below to jpeg on an iPad or do I need to use my MacBook or is there a scenario/module that will convert the web address to jpeg. I have about 300 images that I will need to convert. When I selected the image, it opened up to a larger image, then I copied the link, so I don’t know why the link goes to the smaller one: https://postagestampguide.com/stamps/15606/canada-geese-near-sudbury-ontario-air-1946-canada-postage-stamp Ultimately, I need the web link conversion to jpeg for an Integromat scenario, so that I can add images to my Airtable records. Thank you, Mary Kay
