Solved

I have a “Campaign Name” table that contains a “Product” field (which uses abbreviations).The “Campaign Name” table has a formula field which uses the “Product” values (along with other fields) to generate a campaign name.Our request form (on the “Campaign Name” table) uses the “Product” field, which shows the abbreviations in a picklist. You can only choose one Product per campaign.I have created a new “Products" table which maps the Product Codes (abbreviations) with full Product Names.For example:Product CodeProduct NameWDGWidgetWhat I would like to do is have the form display the Product Name to the user but still use the Product Code when generating the campaign name. Is this done just with Lookup fields, or is another formula required to do the mapping? And then what product field am I referencing in the existing formula that generates the campaign name in the "Campaign Name" table?

I need to ensure no dates in my base land on a weekend or holiday. I’m trying to use the WORKDAY(startDate, numDays, [holidays]) formula to accomplish this. However… issues. I’m using “0” as numDays since I do not want to add any days if the date already lands on a working day. This does not move the date however if it lands on a weekend or holiday. If I change numDays to “1”, then the date automatically moves forward a day, regardless if the original date already lands on a weekday. How can I resolve this? Is there a “if weekday” formula that I can add in? See More

I am trying to create a formula to calculate the number of days a specific status is active. For example, how many days the ticket is "On Hold". The need is to calculate the number of days the ticket was actually active, in other words the difference between the {Closed Date} and the {Created Date}, minus the number of days the ticket was in a "On Hold" status. However, I am not finding a way to keep the counter, when the status changes. Currently, the counter resets to 0 when the status changes. If you could advise me on how to do this, that would be great!

Hey there!I have an automation that is designed to take specific records from two separate tables and duplicate them into a single table. I used the repeat for each duplicate one of the tables, but because I can't use two I'm trying to do the same using a script but failing to add many of the record details.  let inputs = input.config(); let destinationTable = base.getTable("Executive Summaries copy"); let sourceTable = base.getTable("5-Year Automation"); let importQuery = await sourceTable.selectRecordsAsync(); let fivYearInputList = inputs.fiveYearInputList; for (let record of importQuery.records) { let strategicObjective = record.getCellValue('Strategic Objective') let updates = record.getCellValue('Monthly Update') let forcedOrder = record.getCellValue('Forced Order') let divisions = record.getCellValueAsString('Executive Sponsor') let whatIsBeingImplemented = record.getCellValue('What is being implemented?') let currentHealth = record.getCellValu

Does anyone know what the max field limit is for each table in each base? Thanks.

Hi there and Happy Friday!I am trying to calculate the time it takes an individual to get a specific type of number at the time they enroll in our program.The formula I have is essentially, "If the individual does not have a preexisting number, calculate the time difference between the date they got the number and the date they enrolled in the program." The formula is: IF({LO has FTN at time of Enrollment}="No",WORKDAY_DIFF({Enrollment Date},{Turned in FTN})) That works but if “Turned in FTN” is blank, the calculation results in "#ERROR" and I hate "#ERROR". So, that means I need to add something like, “If “Turned in FTN” = Blank, then “””. I tried adding that a few different ways but am still getting #ERROR. Any ideas how to get rid of the #ERROR? Thanks in advance!  

Hi! I'm trying to set up my first automation so that whenever someone submits a survey, AT sends that person an email with a summary of their responses. The client base are outside of the company and don't use AirTable beyond this survey, so I figured the automation route would be best. When I test using a test record I created in the base, it appears to run successfully. However, the first person submitted the survey yesterday and the automation keeps failing with the "The "To" input is empty" error. I currently have it set to popular the "To" field based on what the user enters in that question on the survey. I triple-checked the run that failed, and the user entered an email in that field, so I'm not sure why it's still saying it's blank. Should I add another step somewhere? Thanks in advance for any help! 

We create QR codes pretty frequently in our marketing collateral and it's not infrequent that we find out after something has been printed/distributed that we need to revise the URL it's point to for whatever reason.   I know there are a few services out there to generate a QR code. Is there a way to manage the associated URL though so if we need to redirect it at some point, we can?   

Hi guys!I'm using Ubiqod for attendance tracking in our company. When you scan code, you click on the correct button (arrival, break, going home). After you submit it, the data comes to google sheet and with automation it gets to the Airtable. Now the problem occured. The timestamp from the google sheets it's not the same in the airtable. My guess is that this has got to do something with the different timezones. In googlesheet it's correct timestamp, in airtable it's 2 hours later.This is timestamp from google sheet:This is timestamp from AT:How can I transform this date in AT so that the hour will be correct (it was supposed to be "14:07" not 16:07). Thanks! 

Hello! I've got an inventory board ("Print Products") that has hundreds of products (each with variable quantities). I add new amounts of each product regularly (in "Order Received" and "Products Received" for individual line items). When I sell items they go in "Order Sold" (with "Products Sold" for individual line items).The problem is, I move various amounts of various products between multiple locations. Sometimes they sell at a location, but sometimes they don't and I need to move unsold inventory around between locations. I created another table "Currently At" to try to keep track of how much inventory was at each location, but I'm finding it incredibly time consuming and tedious to input each quantity one line item at a time so that I can check in/check out the different quantities of each product. I was able to write an automation so that when I put something in "Products Sold" it automatically put it in "Currently At" with the correct quantity decrement. I can make forms

Hello!I have two fields that I want to meet certain criteria to return a value in another field.Return Value "Late" if field 1: Advanced Record contains "ADVANCED" and Field 2: If Date/Timestamp is after 10p EST otherwise return "On Time" if Date field is empty have this field stay empty Thanks!

How can I display a ratio between two values in interface (dashboard)?I have the field "hours" in a base.In the dashboard I want to display the number of hours last week divided in a static number.Like:All records from last week.Total amount of hours from those records.Divided in 8.Plot this on a chart so I can see progress over time. I'm OK to go through a new table in the base to solve the problem

Hi Airtable Community,  is there a way to auto assign tasks according to a single select field. I have a single select with multible Teams (CRM, Website, Social Media etc.).

Hi,i am using python-requests and trying to use f-string with filterByFormula here is a simple implementation:hard coding the name worked:   url=f"https://api.airtable.com/v0/{base_id}/{table_name}/" headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {api_key}', 'Content-Type': 'application/json'} query={"filterByFormula":"({full_name}="some name")"} response=requests.get(url, headers=headers, params=query) data=response.json()    but when i tried to use f-string it didn't work. here is a a piece of code where the problem occurred:   url=f"https://api.airtable.com/v0/{base_id}/{table_name}/" headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {api_key}', 'Content-Type': 'application/json'} employee_name="some name" query={"filterByFormula":f"{{full_name}}={employee_name}"} response=requests.get(url, headers=headers, params=query) data=response.json()   {'error': {'type': 'INVALID_FILTER_BY_FORMULA', 'me

Hey,I have an automation that when the status changes to "done" an email is sent to the customer.Is it possible to send an email to the customer from the email of the user who changed the status?For example, if I change the status to "done" then an email will be sent to the customer from me, but if someone else from the company changes the status then an email will be sent to the customer from him.

I need to search records in multiple databases and if the search result is not empty then set a variable for that particular organization. I will then compose an email using non empty variables. Scan Airtable A base, if the output is not empty, set the variable Clinic A to results. Scan Airtable B base, if the output is not empty, set the variable Clinic B to results. Compose email that includes non empty variables: Hi John Smith, Please submit the following items: Clinic A variable (has value - not empty) [Clinic B variable is not included as the variable in the previous scenario was empty due to no search results) Can’t figure this one out as Integromat requires everything to go in a flow as I am using filters to filter in or out empty search results. But if search results for variable A are not passed then the rest of the flow does not happen.

Hey guys, I host my own pub quiz and since I’ve done around 80 of them I start forgetting and sometimes I add question I had before. I’m looking to make a database which I’d update after each quiz so I can quickly search for keywords or answers. This tool does seem really useful and I’m willing to explore it. Now I’m curious if I’d be able to somehow search for the answer across all the different quiz tables I make? Thanks for your help! Screenshot_1|690x201

Is there anyway to change the text alignment for long form text to be left justified instead of right.  See screenshot.

My text fields imported from excel have a question mark where an apostrophe should be.  Is there a simple formula to correct this?

We dont have URL shortener? Any free workarounds, formulas, links? Tnx!

Hello AirTable Community,Here's a fun one that I hope I can pick some brains on.  We have a Workday integration that creates an employee directory that feeds quite a few bases. With the Workday integration, we have to use a unique identifier - that being employee ID. However, employee IDs are not regularly used in our company so many do not know theirs. When filling out a form, they would typically use the employee name, which is not the primary field in the Workday integration (because of the unique identifier requirement.)Is there any way, via automation or some other method, to have the linking record be the employee name instead of the employee ID? If not, has anyone made a successful automation that would switch these columns after each sync with the Workday database? This has become quite a big blocker for us, so hoping someone has an idea of how this might be accomplished. 

Is it possible to limit the options for a single select field in an interface form? i can definitely do this in a regular airtable form. but i can't seem to figure out the way to do this in an interface form.example: single select fieldOption 1Option 2Option 3Can i make the interface form only offer them the choice of Option 1? or only Option 1 & Option 2, but not display Option 3 as a choice?

I have a URL field that I need to grab specific text from (in bold). Does anyone know if there is a formula I could use to easily grab just the string in bold without pulling in additional data from the 3 possible formats?Here are the multiple formats that the URL could be in:Sample format 1:https://www.website.com/en/others/A1087A50-AB73-48AA-B056-A3A472711A9ASample format 2: includes ?ABC=1 at the end https://www.website.com/en/others/A1087A50-AB73-48AA-B056-A3A472711A9A?ABC=1 Sample format 3: includes 2 URLs only separated by a spacehttps://www.website.com/en/others/A1087A50-AB73-48AA-B056-A3A472711A9A ABC: https://www.website.com/en/others/A1087A50-AB73-48AA-B056-A3A472711A9A?ABC=1Sincere thank you in advance for anyone who takes the time to look into this and provide any suggestions!

Hoping someone can help me.  I'm sorry if this is not in the correct section.  I'm new to this and not sure of what to call most things.   I'm a crafter and i'm trying to use Airtable to keep an inventory of my craft supplies.  I have imported data from a different system, and have titled the column that contains the URLs for the photos  as "Image" and defined it as URL.  However, i can't get the images to populate.  I wrote an email to airtable asking for help, and although i keep replying to emails saying they're busy, with i want to wait, it's been well over a month and i still don't have a response.  I have tried looking up on the internet in various places, and have found issues the same as mine.  However, the fixes they show apparently are from a different version of airtable than is currently available, as many of the screens they show have different options from what I see, and i have not been able to equate the old to the new t

Hello,I am working on a base that includes artists' names and a lot of them have diacritics in their first and last name. Is there a formula that I can use that could identify if there are diacritics used? It can be a simple True or False formula that I can then use a filter to isolate everyone with diacritics in their name. For First and Last name I am used simple Single line columns.A list of names is important because it is used for a remapping feature on our website, so the end result for airtable needs to be a filtered view of names. I appreciate any help you can provide with this.
