Hi Everyone, The no-code community (and the Airtable community in particular) is evolving fast, and there are already a lot of established experts writing on no-code trends, technologies, news, etc. Therefore, we thought it would be useful to compile a list of the most interesting (in our opinion) experts in the area that are worth following on social media: 100+ Top No-Code Experts You Should Be Following Should be helpful if you’re just getting into the no-code space or if you’re simply looking for new sources of inspiration and expertise. Cheers, Narek

There’s a ton of excellent tools for turning data in Airtable into websites. But how about the reverse - scraping data from websites into Airtable? After some good community feedback I’ve launched a direct Airtable integration on Simplescraper to help you do that. Choose a website to scrape, enter the details of the base and table where you want the data to appear, click run, and your data instantly appears in Airtable. Here’s a tutorial that scrapes jobs listings directly from Indeed into a base and it should work similarly on almost every website. I know

There’s probably an easier way to do this, but I was quite pleased with the solution I came up with. I’d be interested to hear what you think… I’m building an auditing tool composed of a large number of questions that can be answered Yes, No, or N/A. This needs to give an overall “score” as the final output, as a percentage, where questions for which “N/A” is selected aren’t counted towards the overall score, i.e. the score is calculated by the total number of questions answered “Yes”, divided by the total number of applicable questions. I set up a test version of this tool and filled in some results here. The “Score” field is worked out as follows: {Yes} IF({Q1}="Yes", "1", "") & IF({Q2}="Yes", "1", "") & IF({Q3}="Yes", "1", "") & IF({Q4}="Yes", "1", "") & IF({Q5}="Yes", "1", "") {Yes or no}

Hey Everyone, As an active member of the no-code community, we at Softr always closely follow the developments within the no-code movement. Therefore, we’ve started a series of articles on no-code to share our thoughts and observations on different aspects of the no-code universe. The first one explores the evolution of no-code, its current developments, and future perspectives: The Past, Present, and Future of No-Code Let me know if it’s helpful and if you’d be interested in reading more similar content.

My new app “Ready-Made Formulas” is now available on the Airtable marketplace. This app includes over a dozen “ready-to-use” formulas for common tasks such as formatting numbers and dates as text strings to include in reports generating urls for prefilled forms and prefiltered shared views extracting attachment filenames and urls manipulating dates consolidating data from multiple fields into JSON format Simply choose your formula, pick your table and fields, and select your options. Then, copy and paste the formula into your formula field. Most formulas require a premium license.

After working with all sorts of Airtable users to get their bases connected to PowerBI, I wanted to provide a quick tutorial to the community in case you might be looking to connect Airtable to PowerBI as well. There are two ways to connect Airtable to PowerBI The Airtable REST API Using a service like the one I’m helping with → Sync Inc I’ll cover both here briefly: REST API These instructions pull together information across several posts here and here. Thanks to @Oscar_Diaz for getting this started - hope pulling this into one place can help.

Hi! So I recently noticed that if I am creating records in a filtered view that all NEW records added in that view will automatically get the same values that are required by that filter. This is pretty AWESOME! Ive been itching to get new records to auto-fill and this helps me get toward that goal. Feature request… If you could attach a form view to create records in a specific view, that would ROCK! However, I do also use the ‘prefill’ in the URL option to do that.

Introducing Default Field Values via new Scripting Block Brought to you by the team at BuiltOnAir & Openside/On2Air Overview Airtable’s Scripting block brings a new level of customization to your Airtable bases. The Scripting block will allow you to run scripts to enhance your bases and manage tedious tasks. You can do things such as create templates for records, prompt users, create custom reports, and much more. Once the script is added to your base, you can use it with the click of a button.

I’m working on an amateur project that involves outputting nice-looking text. I managed to cobble together something that serves my specific needs and thought I’d share it here in case it helped anyone else (and also so I can save the link for reference later). Many thanks go to @W_Vann_Hall for the sample base demonstrating how to extract the last name from a field, which was a crucial piece in my “finding the last comma” puzzle. Is there a PROPER name formula in Airtable? - #3 by W_Vann_Hall Goal: Given a list of items separated by commas, add an Oxford comma where appropriate My data has a rollup field which returns items separated by a comma and a space. Example: Moonbreaker Mountain Dreamwater Depths, Meltwater Loch Meltw

Hi everyone - excited to announce that I’m running a 1-day Airtable Scripting Bootcamp on Wed 16th June. Info and booking here: http://bit.ly/airtable-bootcamp This is going to be a live bootcamp, hosted on Zoom and it is targeted at any Airtable users who want to get started with Airtable scripting. The introduction of scripting to Airtable has been a big deal and opens up lots of possibilities for processing, automation, integration and so on. But, if you’re not a hardcore coder, how do you get started? This is what the bootcamp will tackle. We’re going to cover: Intro to the scripting block Adding the script app and orientation Getting data from your Airtable base Updating records with a script Deleting records with a script Creating records with a script Filtering your data Transforming/summarising your data Running a scri

Retool and Airtable make a great pairing. Airtable is great for managing data around almost anything. Retool is a great for building internal tools on that data. For instance, you use this Customer Success Airtable template and Retool to rapidly build a customer success tool (as we do in the video below). Or, you can use this Product Catalogue template and Retool to build a resource management tool.You could even expose a customer portal if you wanted to. While not exactly no-code (you’ll need a little JavaScript / SQL), Retool tak

I have just published a blog post about using Integromat to automate processes in Airtable which people may find useful - any question please fee free to get in touch! Link to Post

We at Softr have collected the 10 most used Airtable fomrulas with practical examples for those who want to get into formulas but don’t know where to start. After reading the article, you should be ready to apply those in your own projects. Enjoy!

Hi Everyone, Many of us have faced a situation when Airtable suddenly goes down. Since our platform Softr is also heavily dependent on Airtable, we’ve prepared a brief guide on what steps you can take when faced with such a situation. Hope it’s useful. Cheers, Narek

Lots of exciting updates and news in Softr’s May update: :link: Linked Lists You can now display linked records in your Softr app. If you have two (or more) tables linked to each other, now you not only can show data from one table but also all the related data from other tables on the same page. Check out the documentation to see how that works on a specific example. :heavy_check_mark: Custom Form redirect on completion Your forms just got superpowers! Until recently the form submission would only change the Submit button color to indicate success. Now on form completion, you can either show a success message to your respondents or send your respondents to another page in your app. Check out our documentation for more details.

Hi guys, Joel here :wave: Over the last two weeks I’ve been working away on new features, updates and lots of improvements for Paytable.io. A membership platform and secure reader for Airtable. I recently dropped a thread over at twitter all about this, you can follow me on my journey over there if you want to keep in the loop with product progress as it happens. ​ Paytable is now becoming the perfect way to monetize any of your curated bases including research products, info databases, lead-magnets curated galleries, jobs-boards, tools lists, checklists and whatever it is that can provide value to your audience. Monetizing Airtable data has never been easier and Paytable resolves the issue of sharing actual airtable shared view urls which means no more leaked access links.

I have a cool table that collects all the trade opportunities that i get. I can also do a calender view on it. the only thing i need to figure out is how to showcase the calendar view by points missed instead of event. Any ideas? I am using the free version so far.

miniAppMaker is a tool that allows anyone to make a mobile app without coding by using Airtable as the backend. Here’s how it works: Design your app in Airtable Add your Airtable IDs (API, base, tables, fields) to miniAppMaker Test your app. Wa-lah! This project is inspired by Airtable’s mission to “democratize software creation”. People are already doing amazing things with Airtable. We believe its power can be magnified if we allow people to turn their creations into mobile apps to share with the world. Especially when an entire app can be made in 30 minutes! Examples of apps that can be made: Internal business tools: operations manager for workflows, processes, tasks, inventory, delivery tracking…etc. Appointment/event mana

We were thrilled to work with James Q Quick to make a video to show how to easily write Airtable queries. Had to share it with this awesome community: In the video, James shows how to replace complicated filterBy statements with SQL using Sync Inc. It’s just another great way to work with your Airtable data in scripts and other apps.
