I have a primary field which is an autonumber and I want to change it to a formula (pad the number with zeros, concatenate with another field etc.). My plan is to keep the autonumber, create a formula field, and then change the primary field to be the formula field.Is there any risk with that? can such action break any dependencies? scripts?

I have a complex formula I am trying to write, and unfortunately it says there is an error in my code, but I can't seem to work out what! I am trying to write a custom field that says LIVE, FUTURE or COMPLETED depending on the number of days away an event is, and in what region. For example, I want a project to be live if its 180 days away or closer for AUS/NZ, but only want a project to be live at 120 days for EMEA. Here is the code I have written so far, which doesn't work (for now I have simplified to just be LIVE or COMPLETED, as once I have worked this out I'm sure I'll be able to add future!): IF( AND( (OR(Territory = "SEA",Territory = "AUS/NZ")), AND( DATETIME_DIFF(RHO, TODAY(), 'days') < 180, DATETIME_DIFF(OPEN, TODAY(), 'days') >= 0), ), "LIVE", IF( AND( (OR(Territory = "CAN",Territory = "NAM",Territory = "EMEA",Territory = "MENA")), AND( DATETIME_DIFF(RHO, TODAY(), 'days') < 120, DATETIME_DIFF(OPEN, TODAY(), 'days') >= 0), ), "LIVE", IF(DATETIME_D

The Google Vision API extension offered by Airtable works well enough if one wants to retrieve labels, logos and texts from an image. However, the Google API offers other capabilities, such as tagging offensive images and, what interests me most, calculating the dominant colours of an image or suggesting cropping possibilities. The Airtable extension doesn't seem to give access to any of this.Is there something out there already that might allow me to retrieve those extra features and insert them into a field in my database ?Thanks.  

Hey All,I'm looking for a way to add files that are not hosted on a public site. The server hosting the files allows for basic auth so I should be able to pass credentials. I'm wondering if it's possible to use `fetch` in an extension to get the file and then add the file to an attachment field. Definitely open to better ideas. Cheers,Collin

I'm using the highly useful Prefilled Forms extension by Kuovonne and it works as intended. However, there are some fields in my source table that apparently aren't qualified to be prefilled on the form and I can't figure out the principle. (The form itself is in the Assets Updates table.)The Assets table contains the prefill form URL in a field called Update Asset. It works fine but does not include a field called Asset Type that I want prefilled on the form. This field is not included in the list of possible fields to use when filling out the wizard for Prefilled Forms.Asset Type is a linked field to a third table called Types. In this screenshot you can see that I've reduntantly added two additional fields that contain the value from Asset Type, thinking there was something about Linked records that was a problem:But I can't use any of these fields to prefill either. Why is that? At least one other linked field, Modules, works fine and is prefilled on the form.Here's a par

If I have 5 blank rows, then values 5, 10, 15, and I sort by that column, those blank rows show at the top and I would like them to show at the bottom but the 5, 10 and 15 still sorted showing at the top. Is this possible?

Hello allI am trying to copy/paste a line from an HTML table into airtable. The table has several columns which are delimited by tabs (unicode 0009).Nothing unusual so far...I created a form so I could paste in the line into that maps onto a single field. When you do this it retains the tabs in the string...BUT...I am struggling to find a way of sanitising this data and splitting out the columns.Yes, you can paste directly into the table field and split it out that way. I don't want this, I want to be able to paste the string/line directly into a form.Using "\t" in formulas doesn't work.With Windows 11 and pasting from Chrome, CTRL+SHIFT+V does not strip out any tabs (it's for formatting only)So how else can I strip out these pesky tabs?

Hi! I am new here.How to link the following text with a URL of the corresponding record when sending html email using sendgrid.<a href="{SM}">link text</a>The above outputs blank, where as just {SM} output the url. I don't know how to hyperlink it to that text. Thank you!--I would also like to know if there is a possibility to have a button on each record when clicked the email for that record is sent to the person on the record. I have an html email that variables from that record will be used in that email. Right now, I am doing the sendgrid extension to send emails to all records in a view with a filter. Thank you!

Hello All,I have looked around the discussion boards for an answer with no luck. I have a formula as follows:REPT("|",{Line Count}) When I use this, it just gives me an #ERROR! as the entry in the field. Entries with a zero in "Line Count" are blank. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. "Line Count" is just the result of number (from another field) being divided by 10,000. Is it an issue that it is a formula field? Any help that anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Trying to get 'Full Name', 'Organization' in my primary field. My problem is that sometimes both 'Full Name' and 'Organization' are filled in, and sometimes it's only one or the other. I tried using the following formula, and it worked when one or the other is filled in, but when both are filled in, it doesn't add the comma and space. I'll attach an image so it's clear what I mean. IF({Full Name}, {Full Name} & IF({Organization}, {Organization} & IF(({Full Name}+{Organization}),({Full Name} & ", " & {Organization}))))  

Imagine that I have three different fields.Disboard URLTop.gg URLOfficial invite URLHow do I make it so if a field isn't found in the formula, it'll fallback to the next one of lower priority.For now I would like my formula to lookup three fields.Here's what I've got so far but it only works with two fields.IF({Disboard URL} + {Top.gg URL}='' ,BLANK(), {Disboard URL}) 

Hello,I'm working on an automation that, when triggered by a new record being created, runs a script. The script should take that record, parse a comma-delimited list, then create new records in a separate table. The new records are include the unique names, the count of each unique name, and a link back to the original record. I mostly have this sorted now thanks to some awesome older forum posts, but I'm having trouble understanding how to write new records.The error I'm getting is on the last line of code where the records are being created: Error: Field "fldjndAnd48IHziyd" cannot accept the provided value.I believe the issue is with how I'm assigning the records. I do not understand the correct syntax, so any help would be highly appreciated!   let inputConfig = input.config(); let fullnameList = inputConfig.fullnameList; let sourceID = inputConfig.sourceID; const uniquenames = [... new Set(fullnameList)]; //gets unique array elements see https://codeburst.io

Hi again,I'm facing an issue in base designing and I can't find the answer myself or in this forum, so I'm trying here,I have this field in the table named "Actions", linked to another table named "Inventory", every time I add an action, I can choose to add every item I have in my "Inventory" table.I want to keep my inventory up to date, so every time I add a row in the "Action" table, I want to -1 of the specific item in my Inventory section.Can you help me find a way to do it? I tried automations, but didn't really understand how that works, I tried formulas too, but I'm unsure of the results, given the fact that I can put various items in the Action table.Thank you,Elie 

Hi There,Seeking some help writing a formula to show the minimum of two date fields in a specified format. I have it working but showing without a forward slash.Formula used so far is =MIN(VALUE(DATETIME_FORMAT({6QIssuedDate},"DD/MM/YYYY")),VALUE(DATETIME_FORMAT({6QTriggeredDate},"DD/MM/YYYY"))) This is showing as DDMMYYYY but need the format at DD/MM/YYYY Thanks

Basically,I have a field that lists days of the week with no reference to date. I have tasks that need to be done on a particular day. Would like to another field to automatically update itself with date of the current week for that given day.  Is this possible?  Thanks

Hi everyone,In an interface form, I have this field that is linked to another source.When clinking the "+ Add record", my end user will have the possibility to link a record from another table.Unfortunately, when I click on the "+ Add record" button, a new form open, with nothing but just the autonumber of the record, and no other details.As you can see on the picture above, just the autonumber, which is somewhat really tricky to know which record to select...Details for the form's parameters here :Can someone please explain how to show all the details from the other table on that form?Thank you a lot,Elie

Hello there,I'm trying to fetch data from a product in one base, then send that information to an external API and then update that new info in other base. The code goes like this: //input of modified product let inputConfig = input.config(); //JSON creation let body = { "costo_ult": inputConfig.costo_ult[0], "disponible": inputConfig.disp[0], "dias_obs": inputConfig.dias_obs[0] } console.log(body); console.log(JSON.stringify(body)); //Send JSON to API try { let response = await fetch(`http://167..../${inputConfig.id[0]}`, { method: 'PATCH', body: JSON.stringify(body), headers: { 'Origin': '', 'Content-Type': 'application/json ; charset=utf-8', 'Authorization': 'eyJhb...', }, }); console.log(await response.json()); } catch (error) { console.log(error); }  The fields I want to update are related to costs, quantities and rotation days, and the response from the script isError {name: "Syntax

Title.I am still getting the hang of scripting, Airtable, and scripting for Airtable. Goal of script:User chooses up to two options in multi-select field.Those multi-select options are 1:1 with the names of the records that are being linked. (IDs are included regardless).Link those up to two records from the Signature Hardware Vendor multi-select field into the Vendor(s) linked records field.Ill gladly take hints on updating or fixing my bad code leading up to the portion in question, but I can confirm everything shown below is working BESIDES the linking of two different records.  const { recordId , QASubtype, SHVendor} = input.config(); const table = base.getTable('tblFvUDsFR14aJ8Nu'); if (QASubtype==="Signature Hardware Quick Add"){ await table.updateRecordAsync(recordId,{ "Manufacturer(s)": [{ id: 'recBUCS8K6yzHS1Nd' }] }); if (SHVendor==="Signature_Hardware - 1481"){ await table.updateRecordAsync(recordId,{ "Vendor(s)": [{ id: 'recyW5pRLYxqFIMkt' }]

Hello all!I don't believe this is possible with how automations work with Airtable as I know them, as they seem to be restricted to only automating one table and that one table's records. Regardless, I'm hopeful there's an extension or something that can get around this, as this seems like something that would be extremely useful to most people. I'm going to lay out an example for what I'm trying to do/the parameters around it, rather than trying to explain it with a block of paragraphs.An existing table's records is a list of projects. These projects are labeled as either approved/denied/pending/submitted in this table, and each of the project records were spawned from a submitted form. Once a project is labeled as "approved," it would make my job/my company's job easier if a new table(s) can be spawned, based on pre-saved table templates (though, honestly, I don't even know if it's possible to save a table template). So for example, once a project is labeled "approved," a table label

Hello! Here's my situation.I have a table 'Part List' that is automatically updated with parts from an external base that I do not control. One of the data entries inputted is "version" and "iteration". So I could have the following table:Part #VersionIteration001A1001A2001B1002A1003A1003A2Where the rows in red are the most recent parts (red is only shown here for emphasis, not in airtable). Deleting rows is not an option because I do not control the data source. I want to create a column that will have checkboxes, and it will be checked if it is the most recent iteration.Dedupe does not work because I cannot merge cells that I cannot edit, and I have thousands of entries so that would take too long.I've tried to adapt the Mark Duplicate example but I get the "Api request failed: Request Entity Too Large" error. But also I wouldn't know where to go from there.The closest I've gotten is below where I can mark a checkbox in a "Is Duplicate" column if it is some iteration of a duplicate p

I have a formula that I'm attempting to show "Sold" if tickets to an event have been sold, but if the tickets have not been sold, to display the number of days until the event. I already have another formula that will give me the number of days until the event.Generally, the formula below is working - except for one scenario, when a ticket was sold for $0.00. You may wonder why a ticket would be sold as zero, but that indicates to us that the ticket was given away - as compared to just not used.I've tried to use the presence of a value (my best working version below), and I've also tried to use the =BLANK variable, because if there is no sale at all then the cell has nothing in it, but Airtable seems to treat a value of $0.00 the same as BLANK.So then I tried a variation of this formula with >=0 but then ALL values were returned as true - even values where there's nothing in the cell.Here's what I have for a formula currently:IF({Event Sale Price}, "Sold", {Days till Event})The

Hi all,I have a simple script that is taking some items from the submission of a Gravity Form and updating an AirTable record. It all works great until I get to a section of the form that has checkbox values. INSIDE of one of those checkbox values is a string that contains a commaCheckbox choicesApplesOrangesPearsGrapes, limes and lemonsI can gather all of these out of Gravity Forms and put them in an array and then implode that array to get a comma delimited list, which is what AT wants to absorb that data for checkboxes.$c=Apples, Oranges, Grapes, limes and lemons"records": [{"id": "'.$id.'","fields":{"Committees": "'.$c.'"}}],"typecast":true}';This of course will cause AT to barf when that comes in and tries to split the Grapes out as its own committee and limes and lemons as another committee. I know that in order for AT to treat a Linked Table field items containing commas is to put quotes around it. When I try and quote the incoming data here the update bombs.$c="Apples", "Orange
