I am trying to use rollup on a linked field which is a formula. Is that possible?  

Hi all, thought I’d let everyone know about a new WordPress plugin I’ve just published to improve my content workflow process which is built around Airtable. Useful for bloggers, content publishers, etc. who publish on WordPress and use Airtable to manage their content workflow. The plugin can be downloaded from the WordPress Plugin Directory. Article on how to set it all up in Airtable is on my blog. The plugin sends key post and page data when you publish or delete a post/page to your 3rd party URL. Although I built it to work with my Airtable setup, it will work with any webhook-capable system (Make, Zapier, Pabbly etc.) Details sent – On publish: Author display name Post ID Post title Post date Post modified date Post GUID Post slug Post permalink Post type Post status Post categories Post tags Post word count Details sent – On delete/trash: Post ID Post modified date Post GUID Post status Hope people find it useful.

I’ve written about CoPilots before, and here’s an example of one I built some time ago and found quite helpful.What if you could highlight a block of code in the Airtable editor, and with a single keyboard shortcut, it could instantly examine the code to reveal:What its purpose is, and how it works.The most likely ways it might fail.The technical debt that it carries and the estimated cost of that debt.The [Paste] button inserts this content as a comment above the examined code.This is pretty cool, and I use it a lot, partly because I’m lazy; I don’t want to examine my own code, let alone code written by others.I have used this when reading code examples in various communities; it is designed to work everywhere you are looking at code and includes ignoring statements like output.Markdown().I used a script from @Oglesbeard above as an example to see how well it would compare with his excellent documentation of the function. Snipity-Do did alright.In my practice, this

I've just worked on my first script for Airtable and got it how I want it for now, before taking it any further.This script runs on a Table named "Travel" and takes two UK postcodes, in fields labelled P1 and P2, passes them to the Bing Maps API, and returns the distance between them, in miles, to a field labelled Distance. Check the API documentation re: call limits and pricing plans to gauge suitability/affordability for your use-case.In its current form, the script is triggered by an Airtable button field on each record/row; I'm looking to develop this further to run from a "when record enters a view" automation to trigger a slightly modified script. let apiKey = 'INSERT_BING_MAPS_API_KEY_HERE'; // Replace with your actual Bing Maps API keylet baseId = 'BASE_ID'; // Replace with your actual base IDlet tableName = 'Travel'; // Replace with your actual table namelet p1Field = 'P1'; // Field name for the P1 postcodelet p2Field = 'P2'; // Field name for the P2 postcodelet distanceF

Hi friends of Airtable,DocsAutomator has been growing quite a lot recently and we have many Airtable users automating their documents with it already 🎉The goal for DocsAutomator was to create the easiest solution to turn Airtable data into documents after having built Airtable solutions for clients for 2 years. It uses Google Docs as its templating tool, so creating templates is super easy. On top of that, it supports line items (also multiple line item tables), currency and date formatting for most regions, you can select to add to or overwrite attachment fields and lots more!Would love if you would check it out and let me know what you think! I'm constantly improving the platform and look forward to your feedback (via this community forum, email, in-app chat, Twitter, ...)https://docsautomator.co/Cheers,Rupert

I've created a script that creates child records in a child table linked to parent records in a parent table through a linked field. It creates a set number of child records per parent record, if a set field in the parent record meets the conditions, depending on the number of records in a "count table" with a non-empty value in a designated "count field". It also supports populating a designated "category" field in the child table with the value of the "count field" in the "count table".I originally created this for the translation of texts. The parent table hosts the English text, and when the workflow (designated by a single select field) moves to "Translate", the script checks a table listing the languages to be translated into, and creates a number of child records equal to the number of languages, and categorises the child-records based on the language.It can be used for other systems where a set number of linked records need to be created automatically in a separate table based

(this headline was generated by the Airtable AI Prompt Builder Itself.)Hi, this is Matt.I used Airtable Interface and added some automation to integrate it with Make and OpenAI API to create the "Airtable AI Prompt Builder".  And packaged it and published it for free with all the prompts content on the Airtable Universe.  Please check it out (links below), let me know what you think, I am already working on improving the solution based on some initial findings and feedback that I have received from one of my client,  but would love to get some of your feedback if you look at it! Thanks.  OUTPUT SAMPLE (Generated from my solution)Automation made easy!

Hey all! I made a quick test with OpenAI GPT-3 to summarize text and add the TL;DR to another field. I find it kinda cool, and it was super quick to make, so sharing the example if someone finds it useful. You’ll need to sign up to OpenAI and generate your own API key there. Add a scripting app, and here’s the code (remember to edit your own table and field names, and add your own API key): // Change this to the name of a table in your base let table = base.getTable('Documents'); let openaiUrl = "https://api.openai.com/v1/engines/text-davinci-002/completions"; // Prompt the user to pick a record // If this script is run from a button field, this will use the button's record instead. let record = await input.recordAsync('Select a record to use', table); if (record) { // Construct the body // Change the field name to match yours. let body = { "prompt": record.getCellValue("Text") + "\n\nTl;dr", "temperature": 0.7, "max_tokens": 60, "top_p"

I am thrilled to share that I have successfully streamlined my data management process by using Formaloo forms in conjunction with Airtable.  😀 By integrating my Formaloo forms directly into my Airtable base, I have been able to collect and manage all of my data in one central location. This has not only saved me time and effort but has also helped me to maintain accuracy and consistency across all of my data. 😊And here is the article that I want to share with you about how it works:How to create Formaloo forms on Airtable base

Hi, I would like to ask if this is possible. So we have an airtable view that contains all the schools in the Dallas metro area. Under Dallas, there are 58 schools. But we want to get the top 20 schools base on their School score. Is there a way to get the top 20 schools with the biggest "School Score" via the formula field or scripting? Though we can use the "Sort" but we want to have a field that will be updated into "Yes" or maybe "To be uploaded" when their school score is included in the top 20 biggest school scores.   

I want to add/update an existing table with a new CSV file.I used this article: https://support.airtable.com/docs/csv-import-extensionIt was perfect till the point that I had to choose only one field under "Merge with existing records".How can I merge based on two or more fields? 

hello, I have a small but may complicated issue. I have a data table, that lists several items to view over a website. the form for the table works well to populate the fields and add items. what is needed is another "contact form" that a visitor can use, to send inquiry, where the subject field is "prefilled" with the specific item number that the visitor "clicked-on" and expanded. like adding a button field, that will open that form, with the prefilled value from that exact column-row intersection. any ideas?

If you're looking for a formula field that translates an employee's start date or birthdate into the current year (for notifications or action items), here's a formula that does that for you.Requirements:Add a date field called DOB (You can change this later if you don't like it)Add a formula field and input the formula below:DATETIME_PARSE(DATETIME_FORMAT(DOB, 'MM') &"/" &DATETIME_FORMAT(DOB, 'DD') &"/" & IF(MONTH(NOW()) = DATETIME_FORMAT(DOB, 'MM'),IF(DAY(NOW()) <= DATETIME_FORMAT(DOB, 'DD'), YEAR(NOW()), YEAR(NOW())+1),IF(MONTH(NOW()) < DATETIME_FORMAT(DOB, 'MM'), YEAR(NOW()), YEAR(NOW())+1))) Now you can change the name of the DOB field if you want. Happy Airtabling!*Note: visit airtable.com/formulas for more info about formulas in Airtable
