Data Fetcher is a free Airtable extension that lets import data from anywhere into Airtable with no-code. And you can now run Data Fetcher requests using webhooks! This means you can run a request when a form is submitted, e.g. to enrich the record with Clearbit info, when a record is updated or created and lots more. Install the Data Fetcher extension here: Data Fetcher - Apps - Airtable Marketplace Check our the webhook guide here: Run request using webhook - Data Fetcher Help Center

There’s a sound doing the rounds on TikTok of American comedian, Steve Harvey, laying out his formula for success in the realm of mens’ suits. He claims that from 5 colours of suits (matching jacket and trousers) and 3 colours of shirts, you could make 75 combinations because everything goes with everything else (subjective and outside the scope of this post). Thought I’d see if he pulled this number out of thin air or not and test my JavaScript at the same time. Here’s the base I made, using the web search function on attachments to pull in some pics and a scripting block to iterate through all the options and create the matching outfits. Here’s my little script for those interested / want to grimace at my code; let articlesTable = base.getTable('Articles') let outfitsTable = base.getTable('Outfits') let allArticles = await articlesTable.selectReco

Can’t find anything about it, so research lead to this. Airtable iOS app use url-scheme like: airtable:///tableID/recID You can use it in iOS Shortcut app for custom scenario, just open link with “Open x-callback URL” For example, I copy contacts from airtable to “google contacts” via Zapier and sync it with iPhone. I add recID to every contact, so I can quickly find any in spotlight and open in airtable app

Hey everyone, Founder of Pory here! Its been a while since I last posted and wanted to share a quick update on what’s possible for people looking for solutions to provide external users (not on Airtable) access to view and edit information from Airtable. With Pory, you can set up an app or portal (whatever you like to call it) in 5 steps with permissions for different user groups and pages. Excited to see if we can help or continue developing the platform to support a broad range of use cases. :slightly_smiling_face:

Ranks your data in descending order based on a field you select, and updates a field you select with the ranking number. Here’s a link to an example base which you can copy and try for yourself: https://airtable.com/shr1Ymp6Z39jsN1Pq //This script will grab the rows from the chosen table, rank them, and then update the chosen column output.text("This code will let you pick a field you want your rows ranked by, and then rank it in descending order."); //Allow the user to choose the table they want to manipulate let table = await input.tableAsync('Select the table'); //You can replace the above line with the following if you know what table you're going to be using //let table = base.getTable("[TABLE NAME]") //For the purposes of this example base, it would be: //let table = base.getTable("Sales"); //Allow the user to choose the field they want to rank let fieldToRank = await input.

Imagine being able to train machine learning models from the data on Airtable and get the predictions and forecasts of the models directly on an Airtable base. No-Code-ML predictions. Check this issue on GitHub, where I am proposing MindsDB to create an integration to Airtable. If that resonates with you, please add a reaction to the issue on GitHub! github.com/mindsdb/mindsdb

After months of development and testing the AirPower app is live in the Shopify app store. AirPower syncs Shopify store data bi-directionally with Airtable. A purpose-built app, it understands the Shopify data model and all its restrictions, can do things that generic sync services (e.g., Zapier) just can’t do, and can be deeply customized. So far we’ve been blown away by the use cases our beta stores have come up with. There is just so much that Shopify store owners can leverage Airtable to do, improving their productivity and lowering costs (you need fewer apps). Some of the Shopify-centric use cases that Airtable is perfect for include: You no longer need a separate app to modify metafields You can bulk update products, variants, collections, etc. You can link Shopify data with data from other services in one place (e.g., sync email marketing system data via zapier, or up

Hey everyone, Excited to share a new tool we just built for Airtable - Sync Inc (syncinc.so). With a couple clicks, we’ll setup a hosted Postgres database containing all your Airtable data. We keep your database in sync in real-time. All you have to do is connect to it with your favorite SQL client, programming language, or app. We used Airtable to power a volunteer organization we helped start at the beginning of this year. We loved how quick Airtable was to get up and running. But while we liked all the cool features for our volunteers, we missed the power of SQL on the back-end. And when we wanted to extend our base by building external apps on top of it, we ran into limitations with Airtable’s API (hello, filterBy). While Airtable looks like a database, you can’t query it like one. With Sync Inc, you get

A while ago, my boss asked if it was possible to set up an automated tip of the day. His idea was to have an Airtable base with a list of tips and use Make to grab one each day and post it into Slack. I’d already come up with my own auto-numbering system in Airtable, and I knew this would be key to getting what we wanted. I set about it with the following goals in mind. Post only one tip each day. Keep track of the tips posted. Keep track of the tips ready to post. Make it simple enough for anyone to add a new tip. Make it possible to re-order the tips. Make it possible to put a tip back in the queue for reuse. We’ll need two tables for our base, and a linked field between them. Table 1 - List, part 1 We’ll call our first table ‘List’, and our second table ‘Queue’. For the ‘List’ table, we need the fol

Hi all! I wrote this script a couple of weeks ago and it’s been extremely useful for me, so I thought I’d share it here :smiling_face_with_halo: The script will find any “broken” fields - the ones that have the little red triangle next to the name - in your base, then display the field name, table, and any applicable field description. There’s no need to change anything at all (unless you want to, of course). All you need to do is copy and paste the below into the scripting app, and click run :slightly_smiling_face: const config = input.config({ title: "🚨 Broken Field Report", description: "This script will find and display the table, field name, and description (if available) of all broken fields in the base.", }); let title = "🚨 Broken Field Report"; let baseName = base.name; /**********************************************************************************************************/ await main(); /**********************

A recurring question on the forum is how to change item pricing without corrupting existing data. With the Product Catalog & Orders base in Airtable templates, for instance, changing an item price changes the price shown in current and fulfilled orders – not necessarily what one wants should a refund be required. I made a quick-and-dirty mod of the Product Catalog and Orders base to make use of price schedules. This allows items to be repriced going forward while leaving existing data unchanged. To provide this functionality, I added the [Price Schedule] table; added two fields and modified a third in the [Furniture] table; and added two fields and modified a third in [Order Line Items]. It should be easy to find the little I changed: Any field with a description is one I added or modified, and the description explains why.

Hi everyone, Just wrote a tutorial on how to get linked records. It covers two scenarios Simple display linked record details on the same page as the “parent” e.g Products listing with their associated suppliers Filtering the parent records by a specific e.g Filtering the product listing by supplier Hope you find this useful. Chinara James – 3 Feb 19 How to get linked records using the

I spent a long time trying to figure a solution to this need, so now that I found something that works, I want to share it with other users. I don’t know scripting, but I can copy/paste other’s code. So here’s a non-technical solution to automatically deleting duplicates/deleting records using automations and scripts. In this case, I wanted to delete the oldest record, since the newest record is going to be the most up-to-date. Step 1. Mark duplicates: Create an automation that triggers when a new record is created. Then use the mark duplicate script provided by AirTable. Step 2. Separate the older duplicate records: Create a view that filters by duplicate status and date of record creation. In this case, I filter by Duplicate? = “yes” (or however you set up the previous step) and record creation date “is not” “today”. That way only the older dup

Hey everyone, There’s a large open source intelligence (OSINT) community helping to document the invasion of Ukraine with many focused on geolocation: identifying exactly where an event took place or where certain media footage was recorded (here’s a recent article on the subject). Given the volume of information, it’s sometimes difficult to keep up so I’ve built a system that searches Twitter for tweets containing coordinates, extracts them and plots the locations onto a map. It’s all fully automated and built on top of Airtable. You can view the base here: Airtable - Simplescraper OSINT. I’ve shared it to
