Is there a way to use automation to automatically store a document in the newly created data record for every newly created data record

Hello!!I have an automation I'm creating where I need it to do a "find record" based on email address. In table A, the email address is a lookup field so I created a formula field titled "email for automation" and simply told the formula to populate the information from the lookup field (as lookup fields cannot be used in the conditional setup of automations). However, when I go to validate my find record, I get "Invalid Input Error"Here are the details.Table A "Bonus Delivery"  Table B: "Webinar Registrants"I'd like the automation to do the following: When a new record is created in Bonus Delivery, find record in Webinar Registrants, and IF FOUND, Update Bonus Delivery Record with a check in the Webinar field (such as the first screenshot shows). Here's my automation:TRIGGER: When record is createdACTION: Find Record in Webinar Registrations Where {Email} contains {Email For Automation} (this is the formula field that populates the lookup record data)But in testing

Hi,I have an automation that looks at a view and adds every record in that view to the email and then sends it at 3pm every day.How do I stop the email from sending if there are no records in that view?

I have about 15 checkboxes in a form, I would like to output only the clicked checkboxes as text in email.Example:Check box “You need a driver’s license”If this is choppy, I would like to have the "title" as text in the email so that the customer knows what things they need.So far it only gives me "True".

Hi guys,Hey, guys,Please help me solve a problem - I have a table of tennis matches, which has fields Player 1 and Player 2, which are linked to another table Players. In the matches table next to the Player 1 and Player 2 fields, I want to add a single select field Winner, which will have only 2 values: Player 1 or Player 2.Is there a formula that will allow me to create a single select from the values of the neighboring fields?Thanks.

Hello community! I have 15 separate single select fields with the possible answers of: 1. Firsts2. Second3. Third4. No Preference 5. I do not select this UWC I would like to create the individual columns "First" "Second" "Third" "No preference" and have the answers filter into these columns (rather than having all 15 individual columns open). Does anyone have any script suggestions to make this possible? The 15 single select column titles are: - Atlantic, Changshu, Costa Rica, Dilijan, East Africa, ISAK, LPC, Maastricht, Mahindra, Mostar, Pearson, RCN, Thailand, USA, Waterford Kamhlaba  Esentially, if someone selects:- First: Atlantic- Second: Dilijan- Third: Costa Rica- I do not select this UWC: all other columns I want to be able to see the Atlantic in column "first", Dilijan in column "second" and Costa Rica in column "third" so I an hide the 15 individual columns but still see the information I need more succinctly. Any help wo

Hi all! I am attempting to utilize data from "Sheet A" (specifically item names and quantities) and SUM the "Quantity" in "Sheet B" when the "item name" from Sheet A matches the "item name" from Sheet B. Is this possible in Airtable? I've played around with a few different formulas and field types but none have successfully produced what I'm looking for. I've also created a grouped view in Sheet A that groups by Item Name and it shows the Sum in that view if that helps.If possible, I would prefer for it to be a clean formula/rollup/link/or just about any other method than manually looking up the info from one sheet and keying it into another. To clarify - all of this information is housed in one Base just multiple sheets.Any assistance is appreciated!  

Does anyone know of a way to duplicate a base while keeping the record ids the same?We are trying to set up a "staging" instance of our Airtable tables but we have references to the record ids outside of Airtable. This causes all of the references break because new records ids are generated when we duplicate the base.Is there any way around this?Thanks,Chris

I am looping through a list of people in a table and adding them to a multiselect linked field in another. I have found andimplemented the following code to update multiselects without deleting the records existing values.I have found that this only works IF the record contains a value. I get the following error:TypeError: record.getCellValue(...) is nullOnce I push a value into the record manually and then run the script it works great.I need to be able to push the FIRST instance into that field and then also add on top of that.Thanks in advance.// This script only works if there is already a value in People Link. In my loop I might need to updateadd up to 3 people into this record. How can I push the first one in and then run this after?What would my if look like? // table.updateRecordAsync(record, {   'People_Link': [       ...record.getCellValue('People_Link'),       { id: linkID} &n

I have been attempting to catch a hook in Zapier from a scripting app that I run daily. The content of the request is designed to capture some metrics from the actual running of the script. I have previously run caught a webhook from a scripting automation to Zapier with no issues. For some reason though, when trying to send a similar request through a scripting app I encounter a failed to fetch issue with some writing on CORS. My code is below, I removed the link within the fetch but it was just the link that Zapier provides within their catch hook step. var bodyContent = { "scriptName": script, "numOfRecs": numRecs, "elapsedTime": et, "recsPerSec": recsPerSecs } let request = await fetch('', { method: 'post', body: JSON.stringify(bodyContent), headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, }); This is the error that is happening when I attempt to perform this part of the script. Thank you for the help!

I would like to create an automation that reminds me by email 1 month before a date from a formula field. Unfortunately I can't change the value of a formula field to dynamic or say the date is within 1 month like I can with a real date field. that doesn't work.

Why does my primary field total display xxx Stories on some dBases and xxx Records on others. OK, dumb question, but I had to ask... and it's not in the AT Glossary of Terms.

Hi,I created a script which takes data  in a project financial table and updates special table with payments report.I'm going to setup it to run daily or weekly automation, and add it to many projects in different bases.Problem with updating a single-select field 'Type' (of operation), when new Types appear.here is the issue, automation can't do that (script extension works ok):thinking about workaround - use preparation script, compare and check whether new types available, output them in variable 'newtypes', find any random record in destination, loop Update it's 'Type' through the list of 'newtypes', then return the old value.Then run main script.More clean solution, to avoid affecting Modified Date of existing record could be - Create new record, Loop update it with all new types, then delete it (by script).Unfortunately, Loop must be in the end. Can't return old value, can't run main script(I put 'List of record IDs' in 'Record ID'(to update), it's not quite correct, but

Im trying to write the same formula I have in excel in to Airtable and Airtable erases everything but the first if(and()) statement. IF({Statement} = 1, "3",     IF(AND({Statement2}<=50, {Statement2>0),1),     IF(AND({Statement2}>50, {Statement2}<=100, 1.5)),     IF(AND({Statement2}>100, 2))) I don't get any errors, it just erases everything after that first if-and. Im sure it's something small that Im doing that's causing it not to work but I cannot seem to figure out exactly how to write this in a way that returns the values I need. This entire document is essentially going to be built like this because it relies on data from 3-4 columns. Thanks for your help.

Does anybody have a good workaround for delaying email automations for (example) 10 minutes? Our situation: When a project goes over budget, an email is sent to the project manager But: the email will go immediately, which is a problem, because the project manager might simply be in the process of updating the record, and once he’s finished with his updates, the project might not actually be over budget. Therefore, we are getting tons of false notifications. What’s needed: Some sort of pause before the notification is sent out, where Airtable checks to see if the situation is still true for that record, before sending the notification.

I want to automate the synchronization between two fields in Make and Airtable. I have a “date” field and a “selection” field that contain the same information. I would like the “selection” field to be automatically updated with the same value as soon as the “date” field is filled. How can I achieve this?

I would like to set up an automation to send an email when a condition is met...and I'd like it to run every 2 weeks or every xx weeks or xx months. Is this possible?

Hello everyone,I have a table in which we record events. Some of these events relate to a media campaign that is also recorded in the same table.I have therefore created a column in which you can link a campaign when creating an event. To do this, I use a view in which only the campaigns are displayed.This works without any problems. However, when I assign an event to a campaign, I would like the assigned events to be displayed in the campaign data record.Does anyone have any idea how I can implement this?Currently, only the selected campaign is displayed in the event record, but not the other way around.I would like to be able to click on the campaign record and see all linked events.Does anyone have any ideas on how I can implement this?Thank you very much and best regardsMirko

Why can’t I save a webpage or anything i suppose to an airtable base using the share module on ios? Notion and other similar products allow it

Dear Airtable Community, I’m having an issue with assigning tasks in Jira an assignee from these leads in Airtable. The way my current automations work is every time I assign a status to a specific field, a task in Jira is created, already containing a lot of information from the record, Jira issue’s key is immediately saved back to the lead in Airtable, pretty neat system for us. For some reason I cannot set-up this automation to also assign the issue to a collaborator in Jira, using the collaborator’s name in the “Assignee” column in Airtable. The automation setting only allows me to pick one name, in other words only “Static” value is allowed, not “Dynamic” as with other fields. How can I fix this?

I'm building an automation.If a condition is met, a specific field should be updated with the data from another field. These are date fields. but I always just get an error message

Hello everyone, I hope you can help me with this. I have a table with many records related to Spotify listeners or Instagram followers of various profiles. I usually review and update a lot of data daily. I have created an automation to generate a copy of all records that are modified in the source table and move them to another table so that I can track the evolution, for example, if the monthly listeners of an artist grow or decrease.The problem is that in the destination table, it creates a new line every time there is the slightest modification in any value of the source table. I would need to modify the automation so that, for example, it creates new records in the destination table only once a day, with the lines that have been modified in the source table during the previous 24 hours. This way, I would have in the destination table only one line with the most updated results of everything I have reviewed that day.Of course, if you can think of any other way to keep track of how

Hello, I want to use forms to let people outside my organization link records among my existing tables. I don’t want to let them create new records. Just let them link one field to another. Is there a way to achieve this through forms? I’m having trouble with the primary field being just a string of text. Ideally, someone could select the primary field from a dropdown, and then link whatever they want to to that specific primary field, without creating a new record. Use case example I have a list of companies as my primary field. I want someone to use forms to pick a company and associate it to a topic (currently linked to a Topics table, it basically acts as a multiple select).

Hi. I've not really used forms very much, so please bear with me!I would like to have a form, accessed from a unique form-record-URL, that allows anyone with the link to access only the attachment field in a record, so they can view or download (but not edit or delete) the attachment.Is this something that can be done with forms?Very many thanks.
