Every so often someone asks how to format numbers in a string the same way that they appear in a number or currency field. Various formulas have been created in the past (including some that I’ve posted in threads on this topic), but a recent thread prompted me to take another stab at the concept, and I came up with the most condensed formula that I know of for formatting whole numbers. The formula below will currently handle numbers—positive or negative—up to 21 digits long (<= 999 quintillion), though with a single change it could support higher values if needed. IF(Number < 0, "-") & REGEX_REPLACE( ABS(Number) & "", REPT("(\\d{3})", (ROUND((LEN(ABS(Number) & "") + 1) / 3)) - 1) & "$", LEFT(",$1,$2,$3,$4,$5,$6", 3 * ((ROUND((LEN(ABS(Number) & "") + 1) / 3)) - 1)) )

Hi, Below is my airtable base.I have grouped the records on basis of my product. I want to find the average of qty in each group. The average should be such that total of all qty in a group divided by no.of.rows in that group. How can i do this on Airtable? For eg - THe average of first group is 68/8 = 8.5 

I have 2 questions to ask:1st being this:I have 2 tables:1. Revelator Sheet Data2. Client InformationThe "Revelator Sheet Data" table holds the music assets of the clients belonging to our business. To map the assets to the clients (in the client information table) I will use the "payee_id" which is present in both "Revelator Sheet Data" and "Client Information" tables.But I can only link 2 tables with primary fields. The "Client Information" has "Client ID" while the "Revelator Sheet Data" has "Id" as the primary fields. So, when I linked the "Client Information" table to"Revelator Sheet Data" table using client_id, how do simultaneously match the payee_id?For example: Above is the Revelator Sheet Data table. I have linked the client information table using client_id. Now I want

I am aware that you can pick and choose which fields you want visible in a synced base. However, if you already synced a base, but want to limit the fields that are visible is there a way to do that without having to reupload the base?

TL;DR: add a "hello world" script if you want a "condition not met" to end your automation instead of cause it to fail.I created a base for another team in which I'm collaborating with them, and for each record that is created in their base, if it is assigned to me, I want to create it in my personal base via automations.The Find Records approach of identifying the collaborative record that was created and re-creating it in my base was straightforward, but capturing updated collaborative records assigned to me and re-updating it in my base was a bit trickier, as "Find Record to Update" may return zero records, if the collaborative record is assigned to someone else, causing the automation to fail.To get around this failure, I added a Run Script step for the condition in which the length of Find Records = 0, and the script is simply:console.log("Hello, world!"); This way, the automation will always successfully run, even

We needed a "quick" way to see that a calendar entry was canceled (in the label, which is a text field named "Short Name") without typing it. (We use a check box to "cancel" the event) Forgive me, I'm new. This may not be the most elegant way of doing this, and I may have missed something I built an automation that when the check box is modified, AND the value of the checkbox is checked (a FIND table with that conditional and the Airtable ID as the record output) THEN run a script to update the text field (because putting the text and the field was not working in the non-script format) I added input parameters of recordID (the airtable ID from the find field) and xText which is the existing text in the field "Short Name" the script looks like this:  let table = base.getTable(

TLDR: i built something that syncs all the pages from your websites sitemap to an airtable base and keeps it up to date---In the last months I've been more involved in marketing at our company. The first thing I noticed is that outside of the CMS we don't have an overview of all the pages on our website. This makes it hard to answer simple questions like:- what are the newest 5 pages on our website?- how many case studies do we have published?- what's the most outdated/last outdated page on our website?We're using contentful in the background and I know I could log in and look for published pages, but even then some of those questions can't be answered without setting up filters and understanding the content model.As a long term airtable fan I wanted to coordinate all the marketing work (todos, reviews, new content) in an airtable base. With the power of interfaces, forms, views I could set up a great workflow to keep track of our

I have created a table with days off of the team. BUT for instance a person takes 2 days (22-23//24) the airtable count it as 1 day. Is there any other way to count is as 2 cuase actualy the person will be off 22 and 23.Thank you

Hi, Myself and another team member are on the business plan and under the same domain.

However, they are, they are on my business plan.Any help/guidance is greatly appreciated.
